Chapter 189 - The Conversation Between Two Kings (II)
"We will fight on the battlefield, a brutal and murderous fight, only one of us will come out alive." King Aenar I Targaryen to King Robert I Baratheon, The Demon of the Trident.

"Son wanting to kill father, cousin wanting to kill cousin, brother wanting to kill brother." Aenar took a sip of wine and commented with a smile. "What a cycle of eternal hatred."
Aenar's eyes fell on Tyrion and Tywin, then he looked at Harold and remembered Robert Arryn, then he looked at Sandor Clegane and Gregor Clegane.
"Ghosts always come back to haunt us." Robert replied with a cold tone, looking at Aenar, who was calmly sipping his glass of wine. Although they both knew of each other's murderous and brutal intent.
"I know you're my family, cousin." Aenar spoke, causing many to turn their gaze to him. "But you killed my father and as his son I must kill you to avenge him."
Killing one's own relatives was unforgivable, but no one denied that avenging one's father was bad or even wrong. If a son cannot avenge his father, then he is incompetent and cowardly.
That's why we're going to fight on the battlefield, a brutal and murderous fight, only one of whom will come out alive." When Aenar had finished speaking, he looked at Robert with an amused smile.
Robert smiled and drank all the wine in one go. "I like the proposal, I'll kill you just like I killed your father." He said with an incomparably cold and murderous tone.
"The feeling is mutual, Your Grace." Aenar replied with a gentle smile and continued speaking. "But don't worry, I'm not a monster like you."
"If you die, I won't kill your bloodline, I'll even take your noble daughter as my mistress." Aenar's words made many people's eyes widen; they hadn't expected the young king to actually leave Robert's children with Queen Cersei alive.
