"No difficulty can discourage, no obstacle dismay, no trouble dishearten the man who has acquired the art of being alive. Difficulties are but dares of fate, obstacles but hurdles to try his skill, troubles but bitter tonics to give him strength; and he rises higher and looms greater after each encounter with adversity." -Ella Wheeler Wilcox
I don't own Game of Thrones.
Prologue
On the day of his birth, he came into this world as a surprise. After Steffen and Cassana first born son, Robert came. His little brother had come before Stannis.
Druss Baratheon was named after the extinct House of Durrandon. They were pleased that he is born.
Druss is a happy baby. He is all black of hair and green eyes like the watery grass. Steffon is proud that they have another son together and Cassana Baratheon is pleased with her second child being born.
Many would say that he was the most welcoming and well-loved Baratheon that had ever lived. Druss knew that he will never inherited the Lordship of Stormlands, but he comment: "I guess I have to find my own way to the world."
So, Druss had his books and battle-axe to train him.
Cassana had doted him. Probably, since he had inherited more of his mother's features and few personalities from her. He had a close loving relationship with her.
The family grew as Stannis Baratheon is born two years later than few years Renly Baratheon.
Steffon believes that it's time for Robert to be foster. So, He decided that perhaps Vale can straighten his son into a better man. Cassana also, pointed out that Druss wanted to learn and experience the outside world that can offer.
Steffon thought that perhaps he can write his old friend, Tywin Lannister.
"Now I want you to be good and obey." Steffon hugged his son, Druss.
"Yes, father."
Cassana wept tenderly, "Don't worry, you'll be back soon."
Druss went and hugged Stannis which he stiffen, but calmly returned the hug. Of all the brothers, Stannis is closet to Druss.
Druss kissed Renly in the forehead which he whines that he is awaken a bit. Renly is still a baby so, he doesn't know anyone yet.
He rides horse that is led by a family guard to Casterly Rock.
This is just one of Druss Baratheon journeys before life takes a dramatic change in his youth and later years.
