“I’m sorry.”

Baelor blinked, turning to the knight. He was looking over the water, expression solemn. “Whatever are you sorry for?”

“A lot of things, I guess,” Duncan shrugged. “I’m sorry that you had to go through all that, losing your father and your sons. I’m sorry you had to pick up the pieces after the fact all on your own. I’m sorry I wasn’t there, though I do not know how much comfort I could have provided.”

As part of Targaryen tradition, each member of the royal family is gifted a petrified dragon egg to take with them everywhere. When a Targaryen falls ill or is injured, eggs will be placed in the fire closest to the fallen dragon, in hopes that their magic may heal the Prince/Princess.

Baelor Targaryen wakes a week after the Trail by Seven, while his condition isn't as bad as the maesters had feared, it's still not ideal. Also four of the five dragon eggs that were placed in his hearth hatch.
