    How is baela still heir when she will be lady of casterly rock? Isn’t that unfair to Rhaena?

      I am still on the process of what to do with Rhaena (i don't want her marrying a Hightower), but i want something big for her. But i don't think it's fair to strip Baela of her title because she married. Her being her grandfathers heir is supported by Rhaenyra's claim and the other way around. One of the fun things about dragons is flying i think, which will take the "distance" problem away. At some point we will see Baela in Casterly Rock and Driftmark as well as Aemond. Thanks for the comment and i hope this helps!

        I understand what you are saying I just completely disagree. Baela will still have a title. She will be a princess and Lady of The Rock. And even with dragons being able to fly back and forth, I don’t see how they wouldn’t either neglect one house or give less to each house than they each deserve, especially with the Lannister me being not only a wealthy house, but one of the lords paramount. Unless you have the couple living apart for most of the time. Aemond and Baela aren’t just running the Lannister family and lands, they are in charge of all the families in the westerlands. That is a HUGE job even without splitting your time between there and driftmark, which also involves a whole lot of work. I get what you are saying, and it isn’t really a big deal, I just think both houses would be better off with a lord and lady solely focused on them. But obviously, it’s your story and I have really enjoyed it so far. I hope I’m not offending you by disagreeing. I hope you show some of how Baela and Aemond work to not neglect one or both of their houses.

            Im glad I didn’t offend!
            Maybe have Rhaena and baela promise to marry rhaena’s heir to baela’s 2nd son or first daughter??

            Also, I think there would be a similar problem with Aliandra remaining heir to sunspear. Made worse since she doesn’t have a dragon, as far as I understand.
