    ...and vile it were
    For some three suns to store and hoard myself,
    And this gray spirit yearning in desire
    To follow knowledge like a sinking star,
    Beyond the utmost bound of human thought.

    Summary

    In early spring of 209 AC, on the cusp of his heat, Lyonel Baratheon takes the hedge knight Ser Duncan the Tall to his bed. It ought mean nothing. But when Baelor Breakspear survives the Trial of Seven, the hours Lyonel spent with the hedge knight and the babe that comes of them set in motion a cascade of changes that warp the fate of the realm.

    Plague, drought, politics -- Duncan has little opinion on any of them. He only knows that somewhere, at the point where the sky meets the sea, Lyonel is waiting for a true knight to return to him. But to become a man worthy of Lyonel Baratheon requires growth, and the Red Keep is quick to grind its heel upon the unwary.

    Summary

    “You’d fight with real swords?” Even drunk, that sends a thrill of unease through him.

    “Are you afraid, ser?” Lyonel asks. His tone is all compassion, but his eyes are gleaming, luminous in the dark. He tosses his antlered crown away, but its loss does not make him look any less dangerous.

    Well, yes. “No,” Dunk says, squaring his shoulders. It is a nice night to die, he supposes. A nice night to live, too, but he draws his sword from its wooden scabbard.

    Or, stag hunts an aurochs through the dark forests of Ashford.

    Summary

    Dunk never felt so young as he did around Egg. Young, and terrified, and stupid. So he had to be tall, for the both of them, even though sometimes what he wanted, more than anything else, was for someone bigger and stronger and kinder to pat him on the head and tell him it would all be fine.
