Post-Bliss

Aegon and Alys Had Shared Each Other's Company The Previous Night, and Felt Particularly Pleased By The Results. Aegon Had A Reason For Wanting So Many Lovers, He Hoped To Repopulate House Targaryen, and As A Result Retie The Knots His Grandfather Burned and His Father Was Unable To Reform. He Was Already Wed To Myrcella Baratheon and His Aunt Dany, and Both Were With Child, When Nym Gave Birth and Tye After Her, He'd Have More Than One Royal Bastard, From Which New Houses Would Rise. Aegon Intentionally Avoided Taking His Sister Into His Bed Again, In Order To Any Brother-Sister Babies, As They Were Fare More Likely To Have Birth Defects Or Mental Instability. Now Aegon Did Realise The Holes In His Plan, But He Was Trying To Retain At Least A Sliver Of Conscious Thought and Wisdom To Keep Him From Being More Unworthy Than Aegon The Unworthy, So If Anybody Had Problem With It, Then They Could Take Their Objections To The Kingsguard Who'd Be More Than Happy To Give Them Literal Sword-Swallowing Lessons With Their Weapons.

Personally Aegon Was Quickly Growing Bored With His Kingly Duties, He'd Wish The Gods Would Kindly Have Their Servant Writing His Story Hurry Up and Get It Done So He Could Eat, Sleep, Fuck, Shit, and Drink Himself Away To The Grave, But He Knew That Was His Lust and Sloth Speaking, Not His True Feelings. But With Such Turmoil, Turmoil Born Of Conflicting Emotions, How Could He Be Sure What Was His True Feelings and What Was Not? Aegon Was Feeling Vigorous One Minute and Dead Tired Half A Moment Later. When He Felt Happy and Fiery One Second, He Was Melancholic and Passionless The Next, It Was Like His Targaryen Steel Was Tempering His Martell Passions. He Think He Knew Why, Where Rhaenys Was More A Viper and Jon More A Stark, He Was The Only One To Inherit A Dual-Identity From His Two Families, He Was A Targaryen In Physical Appearance, Yet A Martell In Several Physical Aspects. He Had A Martell In Personality, Yet A Martell Personality With A Targaryen Nature To It. He Was A Paradoxical Paradox Within A Cyclone Of Emotions and Lineages.

Aegon Did Not Want To Linger On This However, He Had Far More Important Matters To Attend To. Such As Organising A Royal Bank, From Which The Banks Of Houses Lannister, Tyrell, and The Iron Bank Would Become Associates. Aegon Envisioned A Bank Of Such Reach and Wealth That A Debt To The Iron Bank Would Become Trivial In Comparison To A Debt To The Bank Of Westeros. Aegon Would Have A Regional Branch In Every Region Of Westeros, and Each Branch Would Accept Payment In Resources Or Other Commodities That Were Hard-Pressed To Be Found Elsewhere. The North Could Sell Furs and Skins In Exchange For Food Or Coin. A Wheel Of Trade and Strength. But What To Call Such A Bank? Aegon Was Deciding Between The Bank Of Obsidian and The Bank Of Dragons. Obsidian Was A Brittle and Sharp Metal, Ill-Suited Towards Combat Purposes, But Dragons When Fully Grown and Trained For War Were Far More Valuable In War. If Aegon Named His Bank The Bank Of The Dragon, and Became A Dragonrider, Would That Not Raise It's Status In Pro-Valyrian Nations? Nations Like Lys? Nations Like Volantis? Nations Like Pentos? The Possibilities Were Plenty.

Aegon Wanted His Grandfather-In-Law, Tywin Lannister To Provide A Third Of The Bank's Wealth, While Mace Tyrell Would Provide Another Third, The Final Third Would Not Be Limited To Any One House Or Region, But Rather An Amalgamation Of Riverlands, Crownlands, Stormlands, Vale, Dorne, Iron Islands, and The North. House Targaryen Would Personally Oversee This Final Third, and They'd Balance Out The Ambitions Of Lannister and Tyrell. Aegon Targeted Alys, Dacey, and Wylla Specifically Because Of A Mixture Of Lust and Pragmatism, House Karstark Fielded The Largest Amount Of House Stark's Forces, House Manderly Was The North's Richest House, and House Mormont Fielded The North's Arguably Strongest Fighters. The Man Or Woman Appointed To Heading The Regional Bank Of Their Part Of Westeros Would Be Up To The Discretion Of His Or Her Liege Lord, and The Reigning Monarch's Approval and Acceptance.

Aegon Knew He Would Need To Broach The Topic To Lord Eddard At Some Point, Or Perhaps Have Dany Do It, So That He Could Fuck Dacey Or Wylla, it Was Presently Undecided Which Course Of Action He'd Take, But Aegon Would Have To Do It Soon.

Aegon Had Bid Alys Farewell, But Left Her With The Encouragement To Come To Court and Present Herself As A Lady-In-Waiting To Dowager Queen Lyanna, Where They Could Easily See More Of Each Other If She Wanted. With One More Young Woman Added To His Growing List Of Paramours, Alys Held The Distinction Of Being His First Northern Paramour. Aegon Wanted To See If He Could Go For A Ride, Yet, His Body Felt Sore, It Seemed That He'd Torn Half The Stiches Tyene and Myrcella Had Been Restitching Several Times Over, Which Was Problematic, Given That Every Time He Tore Them, They Were Almost Completely Healed. Dany and Myrcella Would Chew Him Out About It Later For Sure, But Aegon Found Himself In Need Of Food and Drink, More Than Another Lecture.

Walking Down The Steps, Aegon Entered The Hall As He Did, Waived A Servant Over and Spoke His Request. "I'll Have Bacon, Crispy, Eggs Poached, and Leg Of Pork, Salted Preferably, and I'd Like Some Dornish From The Royal Stores Brought With Us, The Barrels Will Be Marked With Two White Lines, With One Red One In Between Them." Says Aegon. The Servant Nodded, Left, and Aegon Withdrew A Small Vellum Page That Was Held In Container Of Whale Bone. He Drew A Quill and Inkwell and Begin To Write Into It. It Was A List Of Assets That Would Comprise The Bank Of Dragon's Third Source Of Income.

As Aegon Finished Writing This He Was Given His Breakfast Meal and After Ensuring His Work Would Not Be Altered Accidentally, Dug Right In. He Was Finishing His Leg Of Pork When He Was Joined By Lord Eddard. "Your Up Rather Early Your Grace." Notes Eddard. "Not My Choice, Tore Out Most Of My Stitches Last Now In The Bed, Woke Up With A Roaring Pain, But Have A Look At That Parchment, You'll Need To Run It By Your Maester and Wife." Sas Aegon. "Bank Of Dragons? Really?" Asks Eddard. "I Want A Unified Bank For The Seven Kingdoms, That Vellum Parchment Details The General Asset Overview Of The Final Third Pillar For The Core Funds, The Others Being Casterly Rock and Highgarden." Says Aegon. "I'll Speak With Maester Luwin As Soon As I Finish Breaking My Fast." Lord Eddard Informs Aegon. "As You Like, Now I Must Relieve Myself Before I Make A Mess." Says Aegon Feeling An Overwhelming Urge To Piss.
