Rhaenyra Targaryen was known as the Realm's Delight while Visenya was known as the Realm's Desire or the Black Dragon. Both different yet the same. Visenya's mother was Megora, King Maegor's only surviving child. Megora was only a babe of mere months when her father and mother died. She grew up alongside King Jaehaerys' children. She had once been bethroth to her cousin Baelon. But, Baelon of course only had eyes for his sister, princess Alyssa. After princesss Alyssa's passing, prince Baelon married Megora much to her dismay.
Megora gave birth to a daughter many years later. Visenya was only a few months older than Rhaenyra. Baelon loved his daughter, she was just like his mother and in rare times he could see his Alyssa in her. When he died princess Visenya was left in the care of her grandparents. She grew up alongside her niece Rhaenyra and her Rhaenys' children as well.
In her youth princess Visenya was very studious, learning everything given to her to learn. Thanks to queen Alyssane when she was alive the princess learned sword fighting. Daemon and Viserys often voiced their disagreement as she was a princess not a prince. Visenya didn't care though, she continued her training till she was five and ten. When Aemma died she came back, she didn't want to but Aemma had been like a mother to her and she wanted to say her last goodbye. Everything had been quick, too quick for her own liking but soon enough she found herself in the dragonpit, looking for her dragon. She was ready to return to Dragonstone. "Princess" she heard someone called behind her. "Ser Erryk" she said with a nod. "The king requests your presence in the council room" she nodded walking beside him and his brother.
The council room was quite full. Her brother, her niece, Alicent Hightower, her father, Lord Corlys and a few other lords who were part of the council. "I have decided to take a new wife" her brother began. Visenya didn't know what to expect. She hadn't really talk to Viserys since she was five summers old. She figured he was going to marry Alicent since she too was there. "I will wed my sister, princess Visenya by the end of spring" Visenya was shocked. She had no idea she was even a candidate for it. "Your grace" she began but Viserys gave her a look that meant silence she knew that look too well. She nodded. "It would be an honor" was all she said through gritted teeth.
The news spread, faster than any would think. Soon, spring came and she married her brother. She was unhappy to say the least but he allowed her the freedom he had taken from her. Prince Aegon and his twin sister, Aelora Targaryen came nine moons after their wedding. He was a quiet a loud babe while Aelora was just quiet. But, when happy all people heard were their giggles. King Viserys threw a tourney the day they were born, many thought it was disrespectful seen as his first wife had died during such celebration but queen Visenya survived and healed in no time. Two years after came Helaena and Rhaella. Both girls were as quiet as a mouse. The realm dotted on the queen for bringing healthy children into the world and for taking care of the people. Highborn or low. When Prince Daemon returned, Prince Aemond and Maegor had just been born. Oddly enough, prince Aemond and his twin looked a lot like Daemon but no one saw it but her.
The years passed and Rhaenyra married Leanor after a scandal about her and Daemon came afloat. Visenya tried to help her but she was stabbed in the back by Rhaenyra. By then, she had given birth to another son and daughter, Daeron and Daenys. The years were kind to her. Alongside her, Ser Criston and Ser Brandon, she trained her sons in sword fighting, even her daughters. They were quite good at it, all thought it had to be kept a secret. Aegon, with the help of his mother and Lord Lyonel was allowed in council meetings. No one thought much of it as his mother was always involved with matters of the crown. Aelora, Helaena, Rhaella and Daenys were cupbearers in different times. Aemond, Maegor and Daeron soon joined from time to time.
Visenya was rather clever. Her children were seen as perfect children. Always helping those in need, getting along with sons and daughters of lords of big houses or any house for that matter. Aegon had express he did not want to be king, his mother accepted that but he promised to help his mother put either one of his siblings in the throne. He was quite smart for his age. The queen sat in her private chambers, looking out the window, she was calm. Just looking at what stood in front of her. "Mother?" she heard someone say as the door opened. "Aemond" she said as she saw he was covered in ash. "Have I not told you to stay away from the dragon pit?" she asked calmly before grabbing a rag and begin to clean him up. "They did it again" she heard Helaena say while playing with the bug in her arm. Her sisters with her, other animals in their hands.
She looked at her son, every growing year he looked like Daemon as did Maegor. "Aemond, when will you learn to be patient. Like Maegor" she said with a kind tone. "Maegor wants a dragon too!" he replied. "I do. But, I can wait. I'll claim a better dragon" he replied before greeting his mother and going to his sisters. "They gave me a pig!" he said loudly, making his brother and sister look at him. "When Aegon left they brought out a pig" he said. "Who?" she asked. "Jacaerys, Lucerys, Baela and Rhaena" Maegor had stood up and began to walk, his sisters doing the same. "Stop. I'll talk to your father" she spoke. "Like father will do much" Rhaella said. Visenya knew of the distaste her children had for their father as he rarely even paid attention to them. Her talk with her husband did not end well as he denied any accusations against his grandsons just as the ones about his daughter. "You will have a dragon one day" their mother assure her twin sons. "Mond will have to close an eye" Helaena said and her sisters nodded.
Viserys and his wife were heard arguing about his grandsons and nieces throughout his the Red Keep that day. Daemon and his wife were staying in the Keep after Viserys brought his brother back. Visenya rarely spoke to her brother. Visenya truly believed it was too late for any of them to to truly be a family again, not that they ever were in the first place. Family supper was always quiet or awkward from Daemon and Rhaenyra's side of the family. It was no secret that Rhaenyra's sons and Daemon's daughters were a menace to the castle and the queen's children but the king always looked the other way. Daemon underestimated his younger sister way too much. He thought her a fool that was just there to please the king but how wrong he was.
Driftmark changed the Targaryen family forever. Before arriving to Driftmark, Maegor wanted to stop at Dragonstone, on his stop he claimed the Cannibal, leaving Aemond the only one of Visenya's children without a dragon. But, the hours after Laena's funeral prince Aemond claimed Vhagar but not without a price. As the young prince was retuning to his chamber he was ambush by his nephews and cousins, Aemond lost his eye in the process. When the queen was informed everything had spiraled out of control. "How could let this happen?" the king asked. "The princes were supposed to be abed, my king" Ser Harrold replied. "Who had the watch?" the king asked. "I don't care who had the watch, Viserys. I wish to know who maimed my son!" the queen said in a worried tone.
She turned to the maester and her son. "It will heal, will it not?" she asked. "The flesh will heal, but the eye is lost, your grace" the queen looked around. "How did it happened?" she asked but no one spoke. The room became loud as Corlys and his wife entered the room. Soon enough Rhaenyra did too, as did Daemon. Insults were thrown and incoherent pieces of what had occurred were shouted. "I will have the truth of what happened" the king stated. "What else is there to hear? Your son has been maimed. And her son is responsible" the queen pointed at Lucerys. "It was a regrettable accident" Rhaenyra said defending her son. "Accident?" the queen began. "Prince Lucerys brought a blade to the ambush. He meant to kill my son" the queen argued. "It was my sons who were attacked and forced to defend themselves. Vile insults-" Visenya silenced her. She walked over Rhaenyra.
"Are you not exhausted?" Visenya asked as the room got quiet. "Of using that same sentence to hide the truth?" the queen asked. "Your children are bastards, my dear. There is no denying that. It was a shame that Rhaenys and Corlys married their son to you. You will get him killed now that Laena is gone just so you can marry Daemon" there were gasps. "You are insulating-" once again Rhaenyra was cut off. "I won't argue. It useless. The king, the man who is supposed to keep the peace is a weak king. Blinded by the love of his only child" she turned to him. "I won't forget the wrong doings against my children, Rhaenyra. And everyone in this room knows me. I don't forgive and let alone forget those who had wronged me. When the time comes, I will get my revenge" the queen moved to her son as she began to walk away with them.
"Father, she made a threat agains the crown princess!" Rhaenyra whined but her father was too worried looking at his wife. Visenya remained quiet for nearly fifteen years. Not a single whisper about Rhaenyra. She often did complain about her sons making fun of Aemond or any other of his children. Rhaenyra was being less and less dislike by the people while her brothers and sisters were loved. He knew Visenya would get back at Rhaenyra for her wrong doings against her and her children, and that terrified him. He didn't know how far she was willing to go to get back at her. Only time will tell.
