Ser Onion Knight.
Princess? Gods, what are you doing here?
- Shh, you'll wake Bert. - Bert?
He's the fat one. He's on guard duty tonight.
He likes to drink wine and sleep a lot.
Go back to your room. You're not supposed to be here.
- If your father knew - He said you were a traitor.
Are you?
I am, child.
I disobeyed my king, your father,
and now I'm paying the price.
I don't care. You're my friend.
You must get bored down here.
I brought you something to read.
It's about Aegon and his dragons.
Aegon used to live here. Did you know that?
- And the Targaryens built this castle. - Aye.
- So they did. - You can hide the book under your cloak.
It's a good one. I'll bring you more.
Thank you, my lady. I'm sure it's a fine book,
but it's wasted on me.
Take it. I have more.
My lady, I can't read the words.
You can't?
I'll teach you. I'll come when Bert's on duty and teach you.
- No. No. No. - It's easy. It'll be fun.
- Go. We can't. - Why not?
What will they do, lock us in cells?
I wouldn't know where to start.
At the beginning.
This word is Aegon.
When you see A, E, and G together like that,
it sounds like egg.
And the title of the whole book
is "An History of Aegon the Conqueror
and His Conquest of Westeros."
