A Storm of Swords – Blackfyre

A Storm of Swords – Blackfyre

Catelyn warns Rob that making Jon his heir is probably a potentially long-term problem. She reminds him of the dangers of legitimizing a bastard by pointing out the Blackfyre rebellion, a Civil War that lasted for two generations, (and possibly longer) when a Targaryen Lord legitimize his bastards, creating the black flyers, who were only finally defeated when Barristan Selmy defeated the last of them, Maelys the Monster, in single combat.
Once again, flashbacks are my friends. It was fun doing this, even though there were too many horses. Designing Maelys was interesting. Though how a traditional helmet would work with his vestigial head was a puzzle. I did my best guess.
