I bought Prime for animation (Clip Studio Paint EX is way pricier) but I noticed they added AI disturbance. Has anyone well versed with AI software tried to brute force the AI disturbance? To be honest I don't see myself using this feature often, but I also have some other thoughts:
-IbisPaint is a mobile app, even the Windows version is a 1:1 port. To my knowledge mobile devices still don't have the power to... power, generative AI. And glazing your art against unethical AI image database practices requires about the same power as creating them in the first place, I wasn't able to use Glaze and Nightshade on my late potato PC that ran IbisPaint pretty dandy. I wonder how effective it really is.
-I feel like AI disturbance itself could be smoothed by AI, or even non-AI filters. I don't know how clean would the data be enough to put it in a database, however I feel like results would be more legible compared to the initial AI disturbance. I don't know about Glaze and Nightshade, they are actual academic projects, I hope they are well aware of this sort of thing in their development.
Thank you for your time and comments.

Well as a new PS5 player I have already had my shares of both incredible and absolutely rotten luck. This story has to be the worst luck I've had in my short career on the game so far. And yet somehow against all the odds I managed to come out on top! (for the most part anyway). Without further ado... A long time ago... On a sea far far away...
Our story begins with me doing some good ol grinding for the Merchant Alliance. My emissary flag was Grade 4 and I knew that one more Lost Shipment voyage would likely get me to Grade 5 so I decided to spring for that and chose to dive to it. As soon as I come up I pick up my first clue and then immediately check the map for Reapers. I see 2 on the map. One is pretty far away. Another is closer than is comfortable but not close enough that I could spot with my telescope. Weary of my unwanted neighbors I sailed to my next location.
I arrive to the next island and pick up the next clue (along with the key to the captains cabin) without incident. Until I got back on my sloop anyway. I check the map again and see that the one Reaper is now headed in my direction. Now I am aware that what I did next was very stupid. I don't need you guys to tell me because I worked that out for myself thank you very much. But I couldn't actually see them with the naked eye just yet and for some reason I wanted to wait to see if they were actually coming for me or if they were just passing me by to go somewhere else.
I wait for about a minute and eventually I see what appears to be a fully crewed Reaper Galleon. And yessir they are gunning right for me! In hindsight it is very obvious that they were definitely coming for my emissary flag but for some reason that didn't occur to me at the time. Kicking myself for wasting so much time I lower the sail and get moving but they were already gaining thanks to the headstart I idiotically gave them. The chase was on!
Now a salty old pirate once told me that no ship on the Sea of Thieves can catch a sloop that's going against the wind. I had never actually tested this for myself but now was as good a time as any! Problem with that was the wind was very much in my favor (ironically enough) and while I was fast the galleon was faster. I knew I needed to turn around but being a solo slooper making a quick turn while still keeping track of where I was going and where my Reaper friends were was easier said than done. And they had just gotten within cannon range and had started trying to take my mast down. Thankfully that effort failed but plenty of their missed chainshots were smacking into my hull which was also no good.
I see a big rock coming out of the water to the right of my boat. I decided I would use it as my opportunity to turn around and hopefully get a chance at repairing my boat. So I halve my sail and start turning around the rock. This gave me some brief cover from the Reaper but they did manage to get a couple more shots in beforehand while I was moving slower. I manage to get around the rock and put my heading against the wind but in the process managed to clip the rock on my right side. My ship now had tons of holes which I had barely gotten a chance to repair any of. And the Reaper had come around the rock at that point and were taking as many shots at me as they still could likely realizing what I was planning. I lowered my sails all the way and quickly made my way below deck to frantically repair and bail as fast as I possibly could.
Somehow I managed to salvage the sloop in the absolute nick of time. I check out the back of the boat and breathe a massive sigh of relief as I see that speed is indeed now on my side. The Reaper is still chasing but they're dropping farther into the distance.
In the excitement of the chase I hadn't gotten a chance to check where my next clue led yet. I do so now and realize I'm actually already sailing directly towards the island I need. However this presents a problem as the Reaper is still on my tail and stopping to search the island will likely give them plenty of time to catch up. I realize that unfortunately I'm going to have to sail past the island until they eventually give up.
They literally never gave up. Even with me gaining more and more distance I could still see them tenaciously still on my tail. This went on for maybe 3-4 minutes before my unexpected savior arrived. Remember that other Reaper I saw on the map earlier? Well they show up (another Galleon) seemingly out of nowhere. They likely saw my emissary flag as well but fortunately they saw the Reaper behind me and apparently decided that I was the lesser threat of the two ships. So they go right on by me to engage the other Reaper. (This is basically the only good luck I had throughout this entire tale).
I'll spare you all the minute details of the next 20ish minutes but long story short I managed to find all the other stuff I needed and eventually came upon the shipwreck whilst the two Reapers were still battling. I grab everything I need from there and check my map again. Once again it was just in the nick of time as one of the Reapers had finally sunk with the winner now coming for me once more.
I was now a Grade 5 emissary and had a good amount of loot on my boat. While I had initially intended to keep my flag up for longer I decided in the wake of the circumstances to make way for the nearest outpost and sell everything and get my flag down hopefully all before the Reaper caught up. That way I could face them head on without worrying about losing anything important.This time I managed to avoid my idiotic mistake from earlier and got moving immediately before they were even in sight. The next Outpost was close enough that I was fairly confident I could make it and do everything I needed before they got close enough to be a problem.
If only it were so easy. For it wasn't long before distinctly ominous music began playing. I'm not yet experienced enough that I knew immediately what was about to happen based off the music alone but I knew it definitely wouldn't be good as whatever appeared, dealing with it would likely burn the headstart I had on the much more pressing threat behind me. Seconds later a skeleton ship rises up right next to me. My heart sinks. Usually I'd take the time to deal with a skeleton ship myself but with the Reaper getting ever closer I simply did not have that kind of time. I knew I had no choice but to keep heading towards the outpost while fending off the skellies as best I could.
It did not go well. The skeletons were hitting me fast and the efforts of keeping my ship afloat kept me from checking that my heading was correct. I was also unable to check the position of the Reaper so while I knew that my clock was ticking I didn't know exactly when it was going to ring. I eventually managed to spot the outpost with my naked eye so I do my best to point myself at the Sovereigns and then head back down for more repairs.
I come back up to see that I'm about to crash directly into the Sovereign dock. I get on my wheel to desperately try to correct myself. I would've just barely had time to do so if a cannonball from the skeletons didn't come flying directly into my wheel and remove my steering capability. I end up crashing directly into their dock.
Knowing I wouldn't have time to position myself any better I hit the anchor and ran back down to start fixing as much as I could. It turned out to be a hopeless endeavor. For every hole I fixed the Skeletons would put a new one in me and since I was parked there was little I could do. Looking out the back of my ship I also finally see the Reaper coming. They're moving at a steady pace but still far enough that I had some time. I decide to just get onto the Sovereign's harpoon and start selling everything I could while my ship was still afloat and I still had my emissary flag.
Next problem arises: Turns out I had crashed into the dock in such a position that neither of the harpoons could reach my loot. This was now officially the worst case scenario. I had no choice but to manually move all the loot onto the dock whilst simultaneously bailing and repairing to keep my ship afloat while the skeletons continued harassing me and the Reaper crept ever closer. Somehow by the force of pure willpower I managed to sell most of the important stuff and keep the ship afloat before the Reaper finally arrived. Knowing I was officially out of time I ran for the Merchant representative as fast as I could to take my flag down. Again, at the absolute last possible second I managed to do it and collect my final payout before the Reapers opened fire on my helpless sloop. With the combined efforts of them and the Skeletons it wasn't long before my beautiful ship made her way to Davy Jones's locker.
But along with that I heard the most wonderful thing I had all day. One of the Reapers was yelling "God damn it they took the flag down!!!". They seemed to be in a general rage that they had lost out on most of the rewards from catching me. At this point I revealed myself and threw all my firebombs at their ship whilst taunting them for their wasted efforts. Of course I died in battle before long but I did so with great joy knowing that against all the odds I was the one who came out on top. And given that they had to presumably deal with the Skeleton ship after me I dare say that their hunt for me was far more trouble than I was worth. Ended up losing some of my loot but not enough to be of any major concern. Definitely not enough to make their efforts worthwhile anyway. I don't know for sure if it was the same Reaper who was hounding me from the beginning of this story but man I hope it was because that would only make my victory here all the sweeter! And thus this tale comes to it's righteous conclusion.
Fin.

hello! i recently passed the upcat with my prio campus and 2nd choice program (ba sociology). my first choice was bs baa, because almost everyone in my family is telling me that i should get this as a prelaw pero socio po talaga yung dream course ko.
i followed them bcs lowkey alam ko nang hindi ako makakapasa sa bs baa kasi sobrang quota nito and di ko super sineryoso pagre-review s upcat (mga 2 wks lng ata ako nag-review). actually, hindi ko nga in-expect na makakapasa ako sa upd at all. hindi naman sa mababa tingin ko sa sarili ko hehe pero sinabi ko na rin sa sarili ko na if makapasa man ako sa bs baa, baka sign na talaga to na sundin ko parents ko. pero i think sinasabi talaga sakin ng universe na sundin ko yung gusto ko kasi kahit sa dlsu, sa comm arts ako nakapasa instead na sa accountancy.
i really feel like sa socio ako belong kasi i chose my programs seriously talaga as in ni-research ko kung ano yung mga courses sa program na to and nagbasa na rin ako here kung anong kailangan kong i-expect. nararamdaman ko nang mag-eenjoy ako nang sobra dito. ang dami ring nagsasabing magandang prelaw ang socio. hindi lang po tlg ako abm girlie hehe ive always been a humss girlie at heart kahit stem ang kinuha kong track (for financial rzns, di makalipat ng school)
now, ang bukambibig ng mga kamag-anak ko is mag-shift daw ako sa bs baa after one year. i tried telling my parents na ayoko mag-shift pero laging napupunta sa away yung usapan kaya pumayag na lang ako kunwari sa kanila. ang concern po kasi nila is wala akong makukuhang trabaho after college if mag-socio ako.. unlike sa accountancy na kapag nagbago isip ko sa pag-pursue ng law, pwede pa rin ako maging cpa. may point naman po sila pero iba tlg sinasabi ng puso koh... nabasa ko na rin kung gaano ka-hassle yung pagshi-shift and nararamdaman ko nang hindi naman magiging worth it since hindi ko naman tlg gusto yung program
i know naman po na nasa akin yung decision. i can just not shift if ayaw ko. gusto ko lang makampante sila na hindi nasasayang talents ko rito (yun kasi yung sinasabi nila sakin huhu). kasi nararamdaman ko nang magka-cause na naman ng away kapag nalaman nilang hindi pala ako nag-shift. paano ko po kaya sila makukumbinsi? ano kaya ang career path na pwede kong tahakin after graduation? i think kasalanan ko na to kasi all i know is ito yung gusto kong aralin.. hindi ko masyadong naisip kung anong magiging trabaho ko kasi desidido na rin naman po akong magla-law school ako after pero what if magbago nga yung isip ko?
yun lang naman po hehe thank you for reading!

Gentlemen,
On offer is a Bioshock themed SpydieChef with a beautiful harpoon grind mod on the blade. Picked up off the swap a few months ago, I am at least the fourth owner. Since I received it I swapped the original acid washed harpoon blade with the one you see shown. The grind lines on the swedge and how they blend into the mirror edge is wonderful and clearly done by someone who knows what they are doing. Likely Way of the Knife.
This knife has been carried a lot, but is in very respectable shape. Dead nuts center. It locks up with no blade play and has some very nicely worn in washers that make the action glass. Best frame lock action Spyderco I have experienced. Mirror edge, blade, milled Ti clip, and frame have signs of wear. (See video)
I am not the biggest fan of the show side scale and I just cant get past it. Otherwise this would stay with me without a doubt. Just a cool knife that I love to admire and flip around. I hope someone gets it who appreciates it, took me a bit to work up to posting it.
Will ship tomorrow USPS Priority Insured to anywhere in the lower 48. Pack photos. Tracking. Proof of release. The whole 9.

Thanks for checking me out and happy hunting!

Unlocking Personalized Communication

In today's digital era, personalized communication stands at the forefront of business success, especially when it comes to customer engagement and sales growth. Salesforce, a leading customer relationship management (CRM) platform, offers robust features for creating custom email messages. These tailored emails are not just about sending information; they're a crucial part of building lasting relationships with customers. By leveraging Salesforce's customizable email templates, businesses can deliver content that resonates with each recipient's interests and behaviors, significantly enhancing the effectiveness of their communication strategies.
The ability to craft custom email messages in Salesforce empowers organizations to go beyond generic broadcasts. It opens up avenues for targeted marketing, personalized sales pitches, and customer service communications that speak directly to the needs and preferences of the audience. This level of personalization is key to not only attracting but also retaining customers in a competitive market. Moreover, Salesforce's intuitive design and comprehensive tools make it accessible for users of all technical levels to create and manage custom email templates, ensuring that every message sent out is both professional and on-brand.

Command / Feature	Description
EmailTemplate Object	Represents a template that can be used to send emails through Salesforce.
Messaging.SingleEmailMessage	Allows for sending a single email message to individuals or leads.
setTemplateId	Method to associate a specific email template with the email message being sent.
setTargetObjectId	Specifies the recipient of the email by their Salesforce object ID.
setWhatId	Links the email to a related Salesforce record, providing context for the email content.

Enhancing Customer Engagement Through Salesforce Custom Emails

Customizing email messages in Salesforce goes beyond merely personalizing greetings and content based on the recipient's name or recent activity. It involves a strategic approach to communication that can significantly influence customer behavior and brand perception. By utilizing Salesforce's advanced features, businesses can segment their audience based on various criteria such as purchase history, engagement level, and demographic information. This segmentation allows for the crafting of messages that are highly relevant and timely, making each recipient feel understood and valued. Moreover, Salesforce enables the integration of dynamic content within emails, which can adjust based on the recipient's data, ensuring that the message's relevance is maximized. Such targeted communication strategies not only boost the effectiveness of marketing campaigns but also foster a stronger connection between the brand and its customers.
Another crucial aspect of using Salesforce for custom email messages is the ability to track and analyze the performance of each email campaign. Salesforce provides comprehensive analytics tools that offer insights into open rates, click-through rates, and conversion metrics. This data is invaluable for refining email strategies, as it highlights what resonates with the audience and what doesn't. Furthermore, Salesforce's A/B testing capabilities allow marketers to experiment with different email elements, such as subject lines and call-to-action buttons, to determine what maximizes engagement. By continuously optimizing email communications based on data-driven decisions, businesses can ensure that their messages always hit the mark, thereby enhancing customer engagement and driving sales.

Mastering Salesforce Email Customization

At the heart of Salesforce's email customization capabilities lies the power to significantly enhance customer relations and drive marketing success. By leveraging Salesforce's comprehensive tools, businesses are equipped to send emails that are not just messages, but experiences tailored to each recipient. This personalized approach is crucial in an era where consumers expect interactions with brands to be relevant, timely, and helpful. Salesforce's email customization tools extend beyond basic personalization tokens. They allow for the inclusion of dynamic content, which can change based on the recipient's interactions with the brand, ensuring that each communication is as relevant as possible.
Furthermore, the integration of Salesforce with other marketing tools and platforms provides a seamless experience for both marketers and recipients. This ecosystem allows for the creation of sophisticated email campaigns that can trigger based on specific customer actions or milestones. For example, a customer making a second purchase could receive a thank you email with a personalized discount code for their next purchase. These automated, yet highly personalized, email sequences nurture customer relationships, encourage loyalty, and increase the likelihood of repeat business, demonstrating the profound impact of Salesforce's email customization on customer engagement strategies.

Over the course of the past few months I have been working on compiling a list of my 500 favorite songs. It was sort of challenge that I gave myself and I'm super pumped with how it turned out. There were a few rules (only 5 songs per artist being the big rule, among a few others), and here's the list I came up with. Thought it was fun, so wanted to share here and see if it might spark any discussion about song placement, lack of songs/artists, or see if anyone had any similar lists. All thoughts are welcome! (and if you don't care to comb through all 500 songs for your favorite song or artist I'm more than happy to help you track 'em down)

Bio

Aerys Belaerys was born on Dragonstone to Aemon and Alyssa Belaerys. His father was occupied trying to scrape together any amount of money for their family while his cousins marched to war with the Targaryens. He would be the eldest of their two children with his sister Maegelle being born a few years after and from a young age, Aerys had very little expectations placed upon him unlike others that bore the name Belaerys.
In the beginning he was set to follow one of two paths, that of a warrior or that of a copper counter akin to his father, either way he would be a man sworn to serve the Targaryens and the main branch of Belaerys on their family farm. His mother wished more for him to be told, but being the side branch to an already lowly Valyrian family did not open up many opportunities.
Much would change quickly however, Aerys would only live on Dragonstone for a short period of two years before his families luck would take a surprising turn. A short stint inside Aegonsfort before tragedy befell House Targaryen as the King was slain by a Tully assassin. Aerys was far too young to even remember these times however, with his first memories only ever being of the family's new home in what was once called the castle of Riverrun.
Life would be easy going for Aerys, all eyes were on his elder cousins and the main branch of House Belaerys. Such relaxed expectations would lead Aerys to try and find his own niche in the family, a position no other would be able to match him in. He dreamed ambitiously and so threw himself at everything he could hoping something would stick, and stick something did.
While his cousin Aelor grew to love the fine arts, Aerys would find himself enthralled with matters altogether more martial. Learning the history of the Westerosi was made ever more interesting thanks to the countless spats and wars that occurred throughout the continent. From the Andal invasions all the way back to the mystical wars between the First Men and Children of the Forest, Aerys soaked in knowledge of battles and strategies and begin dreaming of the day he would ride out at the head of his own army.
As the years passed and the boy grew into his teenage years, he had moved on from daydreaming his battles to creating mock scenarios out of game pieces, challenging all who he deemed might pose a worthy challenge. This would start out with a soldier here, or one of the maesters there, but soon enough none in the castle wished to play such a game, and so once more his thirst for advancement in his craft would evolve.
Aerys would begin setting up mock battles using Belaerys men-at-arms as the new pieces. This form of the game would give him further visual queues to look for during the battles, and would lead him to further honing his abilities on the field. The mixture of reading every piece of work and actively leading troops in the mock battles around Aegon's Rest, Aerys' abilities would eventually begin to plateau, there was only so much practice could do in place of actual real world experience.
Such experience was likely enough to come his way however, as before long an old and bitter rivalry that Aerys had only read about finally flared back up. Blackwoods and Brackens once more raised their banners and pointed their weapons at one another.
While much of the surrounding Houses began to fear that the spat would spill out into something all the more devastating, Aerys was overjoyed at the potential for real warfare experience. No other voice was louder then little Aerys Belaerys during the council meeting that Lord Baelor Belaerys called over the matter. While some voiced caution, and others voiced leaving the House out of it entirely, Aerys Belaerys urged his uncle to support a side and earn prestige and renown for their House.
Baelor would be swayed by his nephews pleas, and a raven would be sent to House Blackwood declaring that House Belaerys stood with them. The banners would be called, and while Aerys would not be given any sort of command due to his youth, it would not stop the excitement from rising in his chest. The only thing that did kill the excitement was the dragon that appeared on the horizon the day Belaerys was set to march to join the conflict. At first believing it to be one of the Queens, Aerys was beyond surprised to see none other then his cousin Aelor.
His cousin and the dragon would fly off almost as soon as they had landed. Aerys was not privy to the discussion that took place between father and son, but he knew deep down that if a dragon had joined the mix, it was highly unlikely that he would see any form of real battle this day.
This feeling would turn true as reports came back the very same day that both Blackwoods and Brackens agreed to return to their own lands instead of face a dragon, his heart sank at this news and his feelings became conflicted for but a moment. It was great for his House and cousin that Belaerys now wielded a monstrous beast like Veraxes, but it was that fact that also stole Aerys' first chance at live combat.
He wouldn't remain in a sour mood for long however, because once Aelor returned he would give Aerys the chance of a lifetime, and the pair of cousins would fly atop the back of Veraxes together. Aerys could remember tying the chain, his heart beating hard as the great dragons wings stretched out and prepared for flight. It would be a memory he would hold dear, as though in their childhoods they had never been able to forge a close bond, this one act would be the start of a strong fellowship between the two.
Life would once more fall into a simple cycle of monotony, Aelor flew off to explore what Westeros had to offer, and Aerys would continue his learning efforts. Eventually the entirety of Aegon's Rest library was exhausted. His father Aemon would urge him to see knowledge and experience outside the family's lands, more specifically to the Citadel like he had. Although he was wary of leaving at first, he would concede that in order to grow and gain more knowledge it would be needed.
In 20 AC, Aerys would leave Aegon's Rest for the first time in 18 years. He would travel through the West and Reach, meeting new people and experiencing new things along the way. Finally he would reach Oldtown, the high spire reaching far into the sky above him. He would spend the next five years working his way through several links of a chain, emerging in 25 AC with a more complete education and solid foundation in regards to warfare.
He would make his return journey to Aegon's Rest, only to learn of his family's impending journey to the festivities being held near King's Landing.

Bio

Born ten and seven years prior to the Conquest to Maekar Belaerys and Aerea Scales, Aemon had one sibling, a younger sister named Alyssa. He would spend his entire youth on Dragonstone until he'd grown to become a man-at-arms under House Targaryen.
During the Conquest, he'd land with his cousin Baelor and Aegon Targaryen at what is now known as King's Landing. Despite his best attempts, Aemon was never exceptionally skilled with a sword, he would quickly find ways to not be sent to the frontlines, managing to fake an injury to his ribs on the eve of the Field of Fire.
This fake injury would cause him to miss the battle, and thus miss the death of his cousin Monterys as he fell to the enemies arrows. He would miss the field turning red as the Targaryens dragons turned everything to fire and ash.
The loss of his cousin, a man he might have been able to protect had he been more brave, shook the last reserves of strength from Aemon. He would hang up his sword for the last time, vowing to never pretend to do something again, and only do that which he knew would actually be able to help his family.
While his cousin and their offspring proved valorous warriors, Aemon had always been drawn to that which truly made the world function, gold. From a young age his ability to keep track of funds and find the best deals had kept his burgeoning family fed as they tried to subsist on a meager farm on Dragonstone. Although he had a knack for this line of work, his education had been truly lackluster given his background, a few years after the war he would seek his Baelors permission to learn from the group of Maesters down at the Citadel.
After arriving at Oldtown he would immediately become consumed by the sheer amount of potential knowledge the Citadel had to offer, and the nightlife that Oldtown had to offer wasn't too bad in its own right. Despite his marriage to his sister-wife, Alyssa, Aemon had never felt a true closeness to her as a husband should, and so truly he dove into all the city had to offer.
Several years pass, several chain links forged, several seeds planted. Aemon would journey home with so many new experiences gained and knowledge secured under his belt, it was time to return to his family and do everything he could to make up for lost time.
In the time spent in the South, House Belaerys under Baelor had not been idle. Now the Lords of their own fief, it seemed like their House was on the rise. Although the first meeting between the two was awkward at first given the amount of time spent away from each other, Aemon would find his place in the family soon enough.
Raised to the position of Steward, he would quickly show that his time in Oldtown was not wasted. Repairs on the castle would be completed faster than originally anticipated, prices for equipment and resources were negotiated for better prices, and the flow of taxes from the surrounding lands was tweaked to allow for more gains per moon.
Life would pass by, and soon enough Aemon would witness his son growing into a young man of his own. Unlike him though, Aerys would be captivated by war and the commanding of soldiers. Sometimes it led Aemon to wonder how such a boy came from him, but still it made him smile to see his own excel at something they held dear.
One day the peaceful life that Aemon had grown accustomed to appeared to be slipping, as word rose from the east that the ancient rivalry between Blackwoods and Brackens was on the cusp of once again reigniting. Despite his pleas for Baelor to remain neutral from the conflict, it was his own sons words that resonated best with the Lord of Aegon's Rest.
To Aemons own horror, Aerys was pushing for their house to join the fray on the side of the Blackwoods and march to war. Once more the sinking feeling of fear and cowardice crept up on him, and he felt like this time, instead of his cousin dying, it would be his own son.
His fears would begin to reach the surface as the day to march off to battle arrived, no amount of arguing or fighting had dissuaded either Baelor or Aerys from the current course of action, and it seemed anything short of draconic intervention wouldn't be able to stop Belaerys from joining the fight.
Such thoughts would prove true however, as in the sky appeared the mighty form of that which could be mistaken for nothing else. A dragon flew above Aegon's Rest for the first time in a decade, except this time it brought a rider that did not bear the name Targaryen.
Aemon was just as shocked as everyone else as none other then Aelor Belaerys dropped off the back of the dragon. His fears washed away as he witnessed Aelor return to his dragon after speaking with Lord Baelor, surely the son had returned to save his House from sacrificing any lives.
After the conflict was averted by the actions of Aelor, life at Aegon's Rest would return to a sense of normality. Such life was perfect for him, but alas he soon saw the effects it had on his son. The boy seemed to grow restless and irate at the peace that reigned over their region of Westeros. Aemon knew the boy needed new experiences, and thanks to his time there, he knew exactly where such knowledge and experience could be gained.
He would direct his son to travel to the Citadel, engulf himself in the studies and histories the Maesters had collected there, and absorb all he could. Such things would surely teach the boy a thing or two, and also allow him to travel across Westeros and see some of the world outside the castles walls.
All was once more calm, Aemon would begin spending the time he wasn't dedicating to being Steward to fishing, reading, and even teaching his daughter the finer points on being a steward, so that one day she might be able to help out with his duties.
Time would fly by until, in 25 AC, Aerys would return home a moon before House Belaerys was set to travel to the festivities being held near King's Landing. House Belaerys flourished now, a thriving castle and an heir that wielded a deadly dragon.
What could possibly go wrong?
