Plot :
« Prince Aemond Targaryen was seen with a shaved head, leaving the house of his nephew Lucerys Strong, barely 3 days after breaking off his engagement to Duchess Florys Baratheon. Lucerys Strong joined him in his car a few minutes later.
Rumors suggest that Lucerys and him had a brief relationship two years ago, but completely stopped speaking to each other following an incident involving the Prince's left eye and a kitchen knife belonging to the second Strong boy. The matter was obviously hushed up by the royal palace (much to the Queen Consort's dismay). Nevertheless, Prince Aemond continued to gravitate towards his nephew, appearing on the arm of Alys Rivers, Lucerys's own aunt.
Then, the Prince began a sudden relationship with Duchess Floris Baratheon, a longtime family friend, to whom he became engaged after only a month. The young royal couple's last public appearance before the abrupt end of their engagement was at a costume party hosted by Lucerys Strong, during which Prince Aemond focused on only one person, Lucerys Strong.
By the way, it should be noted that an anonymous witness told me they saw Aemond and Lucerys kissing backstage at Jace Strong's set in Essos a few days before this costume party. We tried to contact the royal palace, but their spokesperson announced that the palace would not be making any statement on the matter.
In any case, we wish them much happiness, hoping they stay away from knives this time. »
