I Regret It, If I Could Turn Back Time I would Make A Different Choice AU Time Travel
Valarr goes back in time just as his father asked to borrow his armor and Valarr justs straight up says no.
He said "he can't because he'll be using the armor. He'll fight for Ser Duncan, he'd trust his father judgment, so the ser must be innocent."
So he ignored his father's protest and got into his armor.
Valarr thought he couldn't let his father die for that Hedge Knight but at the same time Dunk had won, he had been proven innocent.
So he can't just let an innocent man die for merely defending an innocent.
He thought it wouldn't matter if he died in the trial because he would have died later to the sickness soon after, what difference would it have made dying a little earlier.
So when he rode up to Dunk he told him your innocent with the conviction of a man who knew the truth(which he did😅 but everyone else didn't know that) and said "all Knights made the same vow."
Valarr had full faith Dunk would win and told him so, "your an innocent man so of course you'll win."
So when the trial ended Valarr walk up to Dunk and said "see you won."
Dunk of course wanted to be the honorable Prince Valarrs man but Valarr "wanted Dunk to be his father's man to dedicate his life to his father since he won't be there."
Dunk was horrified with what Valarr said because it implied that Valarr did not believe he would survive.
So Valarr changed his words and said "If I survive my wounds you would be my man however if I succumb to my wounds, please kind Ser look after my father.
So when Valarr did get the mace to the back of his head thanks to his helmet being the right size he did die but he died slowly like within a few days.
Also Valarr told Daeron of the sickness that would happen in the future and told him to save his brother and keep his father alive.
To not let his sacrifice be in vain.
Baelor had to watch his baby die and his brother was the one who delivered the final blow.
Baelor excepts Dunk into his service because it was his baby final will but he does have complicated feelings for him.
Which is made even worse is when Dunk is genuinely good like it's difficult to get mad at someone who is sincere and honest.
Baelor is glad he helped a good man but at the same time their is guilt because he's regretting helping because Valarr died fighting for Dunk.
Like if only he keep his mouth shut his son would still be here.
Which is then made worse when Dunk who is also grieving his son, the one who believed Dunk would win with such confidence and faith.
He at times of weakness wishes his son was a little more selfish, a little less honorable because if he was maybe he'd still be alive.
Aerion gets sent to the wall instead of Lys because Baelor was grieving hard.
Maekar well let's just say Baelor can no longer stand being in the same room as him without being sick.
But the thing is Baelor doesn't hate his little brother he still loves him and that just makes his feelings of sickness even worse.
Sometimes he wished he could hate Maekar because everything would have been so much easier if it was that.
