[attr="class,"bioentry"]
Sometimes, life truly was an exercise in duality. One could experience great fortune and misfortune at the same time. This was at least partially true for the firstborn of his branch of house Targaryen. Lucerys was not brought up to rule the Seven Kingdoms. Of course he was not. But he was brought up to lead his branch of the family at least, to one day play an important role regardless, supporting his family where he could and maybe even where he could not. It was a destiny that he had wholeheartedly accepted. He trained. He studied. He pushed aside his love for another, as he knew he had to pick a better wife. [break][break] But all of that changed when his king, the patriarch of their family, decided on an heir. He did not publicly do so, no. Instead, he did things less overtly – and that included ordering Lucerys to marry the princess Alysanne. This was a great honour in some regards. Being allowed to ‘join’ with the main branch, being given one of the most beautiful women in the world for a bride, it was something no one would reject. [break][break] It also meant that he stopped being his own person. He was not just a man and heir in a branch, he was her husband. He was not the one groomed for ruling, his wife was. At first, he tried to ignore it. Be a good husband, father good children. They were both very young at the time after all, barely adults. They had a son, they had a daughter. Everything seemed fine and was fine. There was no strife, no instability. Just the usual machinations of ruling families in times of peace. Nothing indicated that anything terrible was even remotely going to happen. [break][break] And yet, he grew restless. Hearing others talk, thinking to himself, he could feel eyes watching him but seeing right through him. He wasn’t important. His wife was. His children were. In the end, it felt as if he was just a donor of seed, nothing less. And with time, it eroded him. Lucerys did not snap, did not grow mad. But he did get more distant to his wife, stopped trying to turn a political marriage into a loving one. And at some point in time, he even found himself detesting her. This was not his destiny, it could not be. But he could not fight it either. So he did what few things he could. Unwilling to have the same happen to his son, he would focus all the education on him, all his efforts. His daughters were precious to him, yes, but they did not get nearly as much attention and focus. [break][break] And his wife? He did not start beating her, but he started seeing her less often at night – and if he did, he demanded love more than he gave it. The princess found herself abused in non-violent ways, as he vented his frustrations on her verbally, when they were alone and no one could hear. But on the outside, the façade was kept. At the same time, Lucerys never betrayed her, even sought to support her, prop her up – and after the death of her father, he did his best to both console her and back up her bid to the throne. Not for her sake, though. But since he was her husband, her success was necessary for his own.
