Part 3/9:
To quell fears over the absence of a male heir, the king organized an air tournament. His brother, Demon, participated but garnered attention for his aggressive tactics rather than a focus on the future of the throne. Tensions mounted as Demon was increasingly seen as a hindrance. His reputation, coupled with strict discussions among council members, led to a heightened political atmosphere, one in which Viserys struggled to navigate.
In the aftermath of personal and political turmoil, the council insisted that Viserys appoint an heir. He considered naming Demon, but in light of his violent reputation, proposed Rena instead, igniting further resistance from council members who deemed a female heir unacceptable.
