- join in on the flight display since he knows that Rhaenys had offered for them to go flying together at one time. And he knows how fond Rhaenys is of Daemon's daughter*

*Corlys has a surprise planned for @autemregina.bsky.social . He has organized a feast to celebrate all of the years they have been together. Only her favorite things will be prepared. And she will get to fly Meleys alongside their children and their dragons. He is tempted to invite Alyssa to -

Oh good. I'm not alone. Apparently Alyssa wishes to join Aemond in burning things. Daemon did not appear happy about that.

Once he sees her, his eyes never leave her.* Princess Rhaenys. *he takes her hand and kisses it*

He hopes that she will find him honorable and loyal to say the very least. He watches for her. He is already taken by her beauty and hopes that this meeting is everything he has hoped for since the feast and betrothal were arranged.

*Corlys watches as Jaehaerys nods at his words. He bows to show the King respect and Jaehaerys calls for Rhaenys to come forward. Corlys waits with bated breath as he waits for her step forth, eager to formally meet her.

- Your Grace, I am honored by my betrothal between myself and Princess Rhaenys. I will honor and respect her for the rest of our days.

-He casts his eyes around the room and they fall on Rhaenys. He finds her beauty breathtaking. He pays his respects to King Jaehaerys as he approaches the Iron Throne* -

- where his arrival is announced. He has high hopes for the upcoming marriage to Rhaenys. He never expected to be marrying into the royal family but this is an exciting prospect for him. -

Alyssa soon tells him that she believes him since he had known Rhaenys longer and therefore knew her better. After that, things improve between them and their bond grows stronger. They become content in their relationship.

Lord Corlys Velaryon @driftmarklord.bsky.social · Oct 27

Later, once they have been wed, Corlys listens as she confides in him that she feels like she is betraying Rhaenys by replacing her. He can understand why she'd feel this way and reassures her that Rhaenys wouldn't feel betrayed. In fact, she'd understand. It takes time to convince Alyssa of this.

Lord Corlys Velaryon @driftmarklord.bsky.social · Oct 27

Alyssa finally stops fighting and agrees. She does have one condition for doing so. She tells them that she wants to call the shots regarding any intimacy between Corlys and herself and cites her reasons. Even Daemon can't argue with her. Corlys can't fault her for it and immediately agrees.

Lord Corlys Velaryon @driftmarklord.bsky.social · Oct 27

When Daemon's plan of Alyssa being betrothed to Corlys is made known, Alyssa fights it. Corlys doesn't exactly blame her as he knows that she sees him as a second father figure. Corlys and Rhaenyra gently point out to Alyssa that the match is with someone she trusts, so she'll be perfectly safe.

Lord Corlys Velaryon @driftmarklord.bsky.social · Oct 27

He then helps her through the grieving process and they bond over their shared loss. They don't know that Rhaenyra has summoned Daemon back as a result of what's happened. While genuinely concerned for Alyssa, Daemon has a plan to use her to keep Corlys on their side unbeknownst to Corlys or Alyssa.

Lord Corlys Velaryon @driftmarklord.bsky.social · Oct 27

He tells her that he realizes that she did all she could to save Rhaenys and Meleys. He even commends her for managing to seriously injure Vhagar. He vows to make amends for his wrongdoing. She silently accepts his apology and he consoles her as she breaks down. It hurts him to see her like this.

Lord Corlys Velaryon @driftmarklord.bsky.social · Oct 27

He finds it difficult to sleep due to the guilt. One night he roams the keep and hears Alyssa out on a terrace. It is clear to him that she is still struggling with her grief. He goes to speak to her and stops her as she goes to leave. He then apologizes for lashing out at her.
