    Summary

    A tame man whose blood had woken needed a keeper, this not only said but known. A tame man without a purpose would diminish and fade and die; like a hound or a hawk bred to hunt, he needed a stronger will than his own to dominate him and make him heel.

    Dunk did not know he had killed the prince until after the horn had blown.

    Summary

    “You’ll take the vow tonight,” he said. “After that, no lordship, you, no wife, no land, no babes. This–” And he stamped his foot so that the horses tossed their heads. “The gate ‘tween all that was and the night ahead.”

    “It’s just a fucking wall, man,” Lyonel said, but felt a shiver run through him all the same.

    In 196 AC, a common Flea Bottom urchin is claimed by a wandering crow after being accused of murder.

    In 209 AC, Lyonel Baratheon strikes a prince in defense of a common puppet girl and chooses taking the black over losing a hand.

    In the shadow of the Wall, at the end of the world, the two of them meet.

    Summary

    Timing had never been one of Dunk’s strong suits. Unfortunately for both Dunk and Egg and indeed their poor horses his sense of timing had extended indeed to picking their choice of route as they found themselves entering the Stormlands as summer cooled into the beginning chills of autumn. And while autumn so far south was not a terrible thing, Dunk had forgotten to take into account the very namesake of the Stormlands itself.

    “Ser,” Egg said, from atop his mount. “I think we might need to find shelter soon.”

    or

    Dunk and Egg find themselves caught in a storm and need to take shelter at Storm's End forcing Dunk to come face to face with Storm Lord Lyonel Baratheon for the first time since Ashford, leading him to find out maybe he has timed something right for the first time in his life for when better to tell a storm lord how you feel than in the middle of storm.

    Summary

    Dunk and Egg stop at a wedding tourney on their journey north to visit the Wall, encountering a strange assembly of people including an old friend in Ser Lyonel Baratheon. At least, Dunk hopes the man is a friend. But he finds the reunion between them to be much different than the one he expected.

    Summary

    He could test it. See whether Lyonel would look.

    Scars always drew eyes, but there were other places fewer men dared glance. Pushing up, Dunk rose with as much dignity as a naked man in a too-small tub could manage. He grabbed the crumpled towel, started drying himself—and flicked a glance sideways.

    Seven hells.

    Lyonel was looking.

    ———

    Or, Dunk does actually visit Storm's End a year after Ashford. Lord Lyonel immediately surrounds him with hospitality that he's utterly unprepared for.
