Rhaegar for all the wrongs he had committed against her smuggling her out of a war-stricken capital to a forsaken tower in Dorne was one good thing he did before he had perished on the river of Trident.
She had hated Lyanna Stark with all her heart when Rhaegar had run off with her but seeing her on the birthing bed sweating and screaming she looked no older than a child. A child who was wronged by Rhaegar.
She had helped the girl through the birth of Rhaegar's child the girl still hadn't realised who she was unless she was abusing her husband in all slangs she knew knowing she was the Princess of Dorne which was unlikely. She would be lying if she said she wasn't enjoying all the swearing against Rhaegar.
The prophecy Rhaegar had run off for the Visenya he longed for was nought but madness she was never more sure of it as she held the black haired babe in her arms.
The girl slowly cooed at the babe in her arms streaks of tears streaming down her face.
"Thank you..." The girl said waiting for her name.
This would be interesting "Elia" she answered simply.
Her Stark grey eyes filled with guilt "Thank you...Elia" she replied after some time.
She still didn't know who she was.
Ser Oswell chose right that moment to interrupt.
"My Queen Eddard Stark was seen riding further south into Dorne after lifting the siege at Stormsend," he said.
The girl's jaw dropped and her eyes widened "Q-Queen...Elia?" She said in a quivering voice.
She ignored the question in her voice "Tell me about Eddard Stark?" She demanded.
"Edd-Eddard-Ned he knew I hated Robert h-he thought Robert would change he is a great friend to Robert."
"He doesn't know you're here My Queen rumours are that you were killed in Kingslanding Prince Rhaegar's disguise worked," Oswell said.
"Tell Arthur to get ready we will ride for Starfall in the morn" she ordered Oswell.
He gave her a short nod before leaving the room preparing for their trip.
She walked to the door ready to check on Rhaenys and Aegon before a voice called her.
"My Queen".
The girl adjusted herself in her bed to a sitting position with much effort still too weak after the birth.
"I...have committed a great wrong against you the prince was...was married but i still...i".
"I don't deny it, i know what i did with Rhaegar but my child...he is innocent of the crimes we committed and yet Robert won't leave him alive".
A fresh set of tears of sorrow were streaming down the girl's face.
"I beg of you My Queen please take him with you he deserves to have a life away from his parent's mistakes".
Oh, a mother's love.
"No, we can't take him with us!" Arthur replied in a harsh whisper.
"Why not".
"He would be a threat to Aegon's claim" he answered.
"You saw what happend to the children Rhaegar left behind and if you think I'm gonna let Egg and Rhae get close to that then perhaps you're just as crazy as Rhaegar was" she snapped at the knight.
"What about Lyanna what if she tells someone that you live?" He asked.
"She won't give up her son" she replied confidently the woman had just begged her to keep her son safe.
"What if she wants to see him one day we can't risk it, Elia," he said his tone softening.
She considered his words it was a risk for not just her life but for the life of her children as well.
"We take her with us" she answered her decision made.
Arthur's eyes widened almost comically "They are looking for her Elia," he said in a worried tone.
"We'll torch the tower Eddard Stark will have nought but a burnt tower for him in my homeland," she answered hate burning in her heart for him.
