Would giving Bittersteel Blackwood Hall be a prudent political move on Daemon’s part (Given his character, would he even consider this?) and in the same breath, should Daeron then have given Stone Hedge to Brynden? TY

Keep in mind, Daemon and Daeron would have had different political impulses – Daemon would have needed to reward those who helped him overthrow the old order, and would have been grappling with the need to replace the Great Houses who had almost all proven themselves his enemies. Daeron by contrast needed to balance punishment with mercy, in the hopes of preventing further rebellions.
