Incest was one of the most controversial topics in the Nine Realms. Either that of the Van Imperia royal family currently toppled from reign, or even to the plebeian commoner families trenching it out in the undercity self-governed by the gambling overlords. It was such scandal that never ceased from the mouth.

And this new boy child bore striking resemblance to her one and only twin brother.
