Tywin Lannister
Tywin Lannister looked at the little creatures on the shoulders of Targaryens and still couldn't believe it, they now had more of them.
Tywin couldn't believe it, First, the new prince has a giant dragon that was supposed to have died many years ago, now the same prince gives his family more beasts.
Tywin knew this was either a problem or an opportunity, and he needed to find a way to use the dragons somehow. Tywin felt his heart racing and looked at them again, he knew this would give the Targaryens absolute power and no one would be able to overthrow them.
At that moment Tywin knew the king will be forced to return to their old roots and marry brothers and sisters. He knew it was only a matter of time before the King annuls the betrothal between the crown prince and the flower, or maybe the crown prince will have two wives, or at least that's what Tywin thought.
Tywin looked around and could see many people cheering for the new dragons, and mostly were house Velayron and Dorne section. Tywin knew what both of them were thinking, the crown prince was a Martell, and House Velayron was probably hoping for a betrothal to one of the dragon riders.
Tywin turned to the flower section and saw Lady Olenna's pale face.
She's probably thinking that the king will annul the marriage Tywin thought amused and that was the only joy he could find in this situation. Seeing Lady Olenna shocked was a sighed to remember for the whole life.
He turned to the Stormlands section, and Lord Stannis didn't looked to care that much about what was happening, but Tywin could see Stannis looked slightly worried about the new dragons. Tywin knew Stannis valued duty and honor. But Tywin was sure that Stannis would not support marriage within the blood.
Tywin started rubbing his chin and turned his eyes at the new dragons.
My house or any other house will never have power ever again if we let the dragons live, Tywin thought and thinking of a way to defeat the new dragons or use them somehow and take the iron throne.
Marrying brothers and sisters won't sit well with the faith, they might raise up against the dragons, like the last time, Tywin thought and turned his eyes at Prince Jaehaerys, who looked wary and Tywin noticed he closed his eyes a few times. The prince looked focused to see if there was any danger towards the dragons.
Dance of Dragons killed them last time, another Dance will kill them again, Tywin thought amused.
Tywin knew hearing about the new prince having a dragon will make Volantis and many other cities of Essos turn their heads to the prince and the dragons.
If it goes this way, The Golden Company and their pity Blackfyre will be as useful as a swordsman without a sword, Tywin thought and looked at the crown prince's expression.
The Crown Prince looked proud of himself, but looking around Tywin could see almost everyone was cheering Prince Jaehaerys and not the crown prince. Calling him names like 'Father of Dragons', 'The Lord of Dragons', and many other titles that were given to the new prince.
Tywin's eyes went to the new prince again and thought.
Lust and Madness are Good Sellers
Margaery Tyrell
She rubbed her eyes but still couldn't believe the sight of the new dragons. And when they cried loudly, she felt fear, a shiver of fear went through her body making her skin crawl. She saw the dragon of the new prince and still couldn't believe how monstrous it was, and how can a young prince like Prince Jaehaerys be able to control him.
Loras had his mouth opened and his jaw falled to the ground. Garlan didn't looked to either care or not care. Her father had a smile on his face and touched her mother with his right hand and pointing with a finger at the new dragons and sometimes at Margaery and he whispered something in her ear. Margaery looked at her grandmother and could see she wasn't pleased with the sight. Margaery wasn't sure why, her grandmother looked worried.
Margaery thought about it and remembered that Targaryens married brother and sister for centuries to be able to control the dragons, she knew the new dragons could mean that her betrothal might get annulled to keep the bloodline pure.
Margaery had seen prince Jaehaerys, two more times since the last time, and both times Prince Jaehaerys was as cold as ice towards her. She had tried to start a simple conversation with him three times during the time she spent time with Prince Aegon.
The way how he answered showed he didn't cared to keep talking with her, acted with her as she was an unwanted guest, and almost every time Princess Rhaenys would look at her like a hawk every time she would try to talk with Prince Jaehaerys. No one needed to be smart to know that she liked him and not in a normal brother-sister way but as a wife should love her husband.
She had told her grandmother that Princess Rhaenys lusted after her brother, her grandmother told her to see if Prince Jaehaerys shared the lust or maybe he didn't wanted to marry his sister.
Margaery didn't know that, she could hardly read the prince's face, he knew how to hide his emotions.
Now she was thinking to talk with her grandmother to see if this was good for them or not.
Oberyn Martell
He looked at the dragons his nephew and niece had, now they had their own dragons and would be dragon riders. Oberyn felt glad to see that and he turned his head to prince Jaehaerys and saw he was looking at his brother and sister proudly, but Oberyn could see he looked wary, and concerned. And Oberyn remembered that prince Jaehaerys used his dragon to distract The Mountain away.
Oberyn remembered that moment, he was sure he might have died. He didn't have a spear to fight back and only a shield to protect himself, if the mountain had attacked with full strength, he could have lost his shield and be torn to pieces.
Now looking at the boy from closer, Oberyn didn't see any negative expression on his face towards his brother or sister, there wasn't jealousy in his face.
Oberyn sighed in relief and knew sooner or later, Doran will find out about the new prince and his dragon 'Cannibal'. Oberyn knew his first move would be to try to make a betrothal between Ari and Jaehaerys, but if what Oberyn saw in Rhaeny's eyes whenever Ari tried to talk with Prince Jaehaerys was true, he knew Rhaenys would burn Ari, Oberyn thought amused and decided to send a letter to Doran and tell him about Prince Jaehaerys and then try to convince Elia for a betrothal between Rhaenys and Prince Jaehaerys.
His nephew and niece returned back and the dragons were put in the cages made of wood again, the dragons were guarded by what looked like almost 25 soldiers. Aegon, Rhaenys, and Princess Daenerys returned back to where Prince Jaehaerys was seated. Many people were cheering for them but mostly for Prince Jaehaerys.
They walked back to their places and King Rhaegar got up and raised his hands with a proud smile. Oberyn couldn't remember the last time he saw Rhaegar looked so happy. His face was brightened up, and his eyes were smiling too.
Everyone went silent, wanting to hear whatever the king wanted to say.
"People of Westeros, the dragons have returned, and thanks to my son, Prince Jaehaerys we have more dragons. Tonight we will hold a big feast in celebration of the new dragons," King Rhaegar announced to cheers.
Aegon Targaryen
He returned to the royal quarters, with his family. Balerion was very beautiful and he liked to spend time with him. Aegon already felt a connection with Balerion and wondered if this is how Jae feels with Winter and Bloodfyre.
Every time Balerion was not close, he felt strange, Aegon understood he felt better with him being close to him.
When he showed the dragon to everyone, he was worried and wary that something like. 'The Storming of the Dragon Pit', might happen again. He knew Bloodfyre was close but still. Aegon kept his hand on the hilt of his sword ready to protect Balerion and his family.
Thankfully nothing bad happened. Now his mother was making sure that both he and Jae wear good clothes for the feast. Aegon enjoyed feasts, while Jae looked to not care about the feast.
"Do I really have to come?" Jae asked bored as the servant was showing a new outfit for him to wear.
His mother looked at the outfit, it had Targaryen colors everywhere. His mother put a finger on her chin and thinking about what Jae should wear.
Aegon wasn't bothered but Jae looked bored and annoyed that servants were helping him to wear clothes. That made Aegon laugh under his nose, which didn't go unnoticed by Jae who shot him an annoyed look, which made him laugh even more.
"Yes, is a big feast and everyone will be happy to see you there," his mother responded kindly and Jae murmured. "Except myself," but mother heard him and so did Aegon but didn't respond to that.
"You will wear this one," his mother suggested and pointed a finger at the outfit that the servant was holding close to Jae.
The servant nodded her head and walked closer to Jae ready to help him to wear it. But Jae raised his hand to stop her and grabbed the outfit. "I can wear it," Jae said annoyed, and walked to the other room to wear it. The servant lowered her head and looked saddened.
His mother noticed that. "Arnita, how about you bring my new dress in my bed-chamber," his mother commanded and the servant left. Aegon knew she thought that she had done something wrong.
His mother then walked closer to him. "You look very handsome," his mother said and pointed his head to look at a full-length mirror in front of him. Aegon was wearing a black outfit, with golden lines around his wrist and a red three head-headed dragon on the chest. He also had a small golden ring with the Targaryen sigil in the front of the ring, on his ring finger.
Aegon had asked his mother if he should wear clothes that represented, House Martell more, but his mother told him that it was better if this time, he represented more from House Targaryen. And Aegon understood why.
He waited two more minutes and the door opened and Jae walked outside, wearing his new outfit. His outfit was mostly blackened red, with the part around his wrist with dark color. Jae had made a face that showed that he didn't like this.
His mother walked closer to Jae. "I'm sure every lady there will faint when they see you," his mother commented and Jae rolled his eyes at that, making Aegon laugh.
"Very well, you stay here until is time to go to the feast," His mother ordered seriously and left his chamber.
Aegon turned his purple eyes at Jae again who was focused on his sword 'Dark Sister' which was lying on the floor close to Aegon's bed.
"You don't need it, for the feast," Aegon commented and walked closer to his brother.
Jae's face looked to disagree but instead, he walked to a chair and sat there waiting until they should go to the feast.
"How do you feel that Balerion is not with you?" His brother suddenly asked.
Aegon sat close to him. "It feels strange like I'm missing something," Aegon responded trying to explain how it feels, and his brother looked to understand what he meant.
"I feel the same with Winter and Bloodfyre," Jae commented and looked at his clothes.
Aegon decided to brighten up the mood. "I'm sure, ladies around there will have all their eyes on you," Aegon commented playfully and Jae rolled his eyes and turned to him.
"Not you too," he responded slightly annoyed.
Aegon chuckled. "Do you have your eyes for any lady around here?" Aegon added and at that moment Jae turned his head away.
"I . . . am not sure," Jae responded quietly while not looking at him, but Aegon was sure he had his eyes on someone.
Jae then turned his head to him. "What about you? Do you like any lady or in this case Princess?" He asked jokingly, making Aegon blush and lowered his head.
"Is not your business," Aegon responded and moved his chair a bit away from his brother.
"Why don't you like the feast?" Aegon asked curiously. "I just find it annoying to be amongst so many people and all of them will look at every little move you do. I would rather go outside and hunt with Winter or fly with Bloodfyre than go to the feast," Jae responded and looked at him to see what he thought.
Aegon agreed with his brother. It was annoying that everyone would look at him and his family.
"Maybe you're right, but feasts can be fun too," Aegon added and Jae looked to disagree.
"Do you know how to dance?" Aegon asked curiously and playfully.
Jae shrugged his shoulders. "As much as I know how to fly on my own," Jae responded and his face looked slightly worried in this subject.
His brother noticed that and slowly turned his head to Aegon. "Do . . . Do you think anyone might ask me to dance, or that I should ask someone to dance with me?" Jae asked nervously.
"Yes definitely, especially Dany, she knows how to dance," Aegon responded and Jae looked more worried. Aegon couldn't understand why.
Perhaps he wants to ask the lady he likes to dance with but doesn't know how Aegon thought.
"Look, even if you don't know how to dance, just follow what your lady is doing, and follow what the others are doing," Aegon said trying to ease the worries of his brother. Jae nodded his head and smiled at him.
Arianne Martell
She was preparing for the feast and wanted to look as beautiful as she could. She wore a dornish dress, which had an opening in her chest, almost showed her whole breasts, her dress was yellow with black lines around her arms and wrists. In the dress around her wrist was a snake drawn with his tongue out. She wore a necklace, that looked like the skin of a snake with very thin lines around the necklace. In the center of the necklace was a red ruby, which costed more than many small houses in Westeros.
Perhaps even more than House Tully Arianne thought with a smirk.
Arianne looked forward to the feast, she knew this wasn't just any feast, this was the largest feast, that the king has ever made.
She looked at herself in the mirror and wanted to look both dangerous and attractive, she knew she didn't lack beauty but still wanted to look perfect.
She was looking forward to spending time with Aegon but with Jae as well. She didn't had that much time to spend with the new prince due to Rhaenys looking ready to burn her alive with her gaze.
Thinking about Rhaenys made her think about Aegon. To her Aegon was good, he liked to complete his duties and wanted to be like King Rhaegar, a good king and admired by his people, and he was quite handsome and his practice with a sword made his body looked muscular and strong, and more handsome, which made many ladies look at him with lust for both his status and his looks, but his brother Jae was a completely different matter.
Prince Jae was like a mystery, an interesting mystery to solve. His long dark curly hair made him look like a dark prince, a dark dangerous prince. Ready to kidnap you away and do with you as he liked, not that Ari would mind that.
Prince Jae had his . . . Kind moments, but most of the time he looked wary and ready to draw his swords at any moment, that was probably the reason why he always had his swords with him.
His face was kind and harsh at the same time but mostly was harsh. His eyes sometimes were colder than the winter itself. She knew it was because of the harsh childhood that made him look a bit older and cold towards people he didn't know. Arianne had looked at his eyes many times and had noticed a flash of green in his eyes the first time he met her uncle.
Arianne was sure it was just her imagination.
When she looked at the dragon of prince Jae when the dragon roared at the mountain, she knew prince Jae had good control over his dragon, and that made him very dangerous. And Arianne found all that very interesting and amusing.
While she liked Aegon, she wasn't really interested in marrying him, she didn't care to become Queen, she only wanted to be the ruler of Dorne, which rightfully belonged to her. But she was sure her father had other plans for her, and probably give the Dorne to Quentyn, who was a frog dressed as a man.
At first, she thought that she would marry Prince Viserys. But then she hears that her father wants to marry her off to some son of a lord from Dorne, just to get rid of her. Arianne didn't like her father since mother went away, but since she found out that he wanted to put Quentyn in her place, she straight up disliked him. And didn't see him as really a father anymore.
While a marriage with prince Jae could be fruitful, and her children would be dragon riders. And Rhaenys told her that prince Jae would be the prince of Summerhall. Her children would be prince of Summerhall.
Still, she looked forward to spending time with his cousins and Prince Jaehaerys.
Sansa Stark
Tomorrow they would leave for Winterfell. Sansa knew there was a great feast tonight but she didn't really cared. Sansa didn't even know for what she cared anymore, her whole life had turned upside down in a matter of a day.
In only one day she lost both of her parents, Sansa wasn't sure what to think of the whole situation. Her father had kidnapped a prince of the realm without the king's permission and made the prince's life a living hell.
Sansa wasn't sure what to think of her father anymore. Her father always teached them of honor, and that the North had honor. But what he had done wasn't honorable.
Sansa still remembered when the king announced that the traitor was her father, she was sure that was a mistake. Her father was an honorable man known throughout the whole of Westeros. But then the king told the story of what her father had done and everything was wrong from there. When her mother screamed that it was all a lie, Sansa was convinced that was a lie created by the bastard to take Winterfell from Robb.
Her mother always told her that bastards are sons and daughters created by lust and sin and therefore not seen as innocent from the seven. Sansa trusted her mother, that was the rule of the seven, and they would help them against the bastard but instead, it was confirmed by almost everyone that Jon was no bastard and was a prince.
But still, she was sure it was all a lie, a mistake but a voice in her head always told her that it wasn't. When the king said the charges of her father, she started crying. She was never going to see her father again and she couldn't even visit him to the night's watch. No, he would spend 20 years in a black cell and if he was alive in the end, he would be sent to the wall.
Sansa couldn't remember the last time she cried so much but then, her mother spilled out some hard truths about Jon and the king ordered for her to be executed. Sansa didn't remember what happened next, only that she woke up in her bed. At first, she thought that it was all a dream but when she saw Arya hugging her legs and crying on her bed. Robb talking with the Northern lords, Bran crying, and so was Rickon. She knew this was no dream but a nightmare.
Since that day Sansa didn't really talked with anyone, she wanted to hear from her father if Jon was truly a prince. When her father confirmed everything, her whole world was shattered.
Her father was a liar and a man who kidnapped a child away from his family, from his father and siblings, and to makes matters worse. Jon was never treated well, and that only added salt to the wound for the royal family. Sansa knew there was no point in trying to change the king and queen's mind. They would never forgive any of them. She would never marry any prince as her mother promised her.
Her mother then told them to take 'Revenge' but Sansa knew it was foolish, Prince Jon had a dragon, and if he wanted he could burn the whole damn North to the ground.
Robb tried to convince them that the best thing to do was to take revenge. Arya only told him.
If you do that, you might as well slit our throats yourself. At this point, you can either get us all killed or be quiet and listen to father.
Sansa knew if Robb decided to attack, Prince Jon would have no mercy for them. He would execute Robb for treason and remove House Stark as Lord Paramount of The North. Just like how House Tully was removed. So it was either die or try to make things better.
Since the first time she visited her mother, Sansa didn't visit her again, Sansa noticed her mother was strange, and the conditions in the cell were very bad. Sansa couldn't bear to look at her mother in that condition. Arya and Robb visited her one more time. When they returned, they looked horrified as they had just seen some creature.
' Sansa looked at Arya as she looked ready to cry, Robb was always strong but right now he looked like a little kid, and his eyes tearfully but he swallowed many times trying to not let himself cry, Robb wanted to look strong and not weak in front of his sisters.
"Arya, what happened?" Sansa asked worried and turned her eyes at Robb then at Arya, who was silent as a grave.
Sansa got up and moved closer to Arya. Who avoided her gaze and looked at Sansa's right. From the corner of her eyes, she could see, Arya was focused on Rickon's crib.
"Mother, . . . She's strange," Sansa heard Robb's voice and turned to him confused.
"What do you mean?" She asked and took a step forward.
Robb sighed deeply and just shooked his head. Sansa wasn't sure why. She was about to ask again when Robb turned his eyes at her.
"She's not well," he simply responded and Sansa didn't asked more. '
Now she looked at Arya who was playing a child game with Bran. Robb was holding Rickon in his arms and trying to make him fall asleep.
Sansa had noticed that Robb had spent less time with Theon since their father and mother were put in jail. She wasn't sure why but was glad. Sansa never liked the Greyjoy, the only thing she had in common back then with prince Jon.
Since this nightmare started, Sansa first isolated herself but after two days, she decided to try to make herself busy, with her stitch work. Making small clothes for Rickon and Bran. Arya would spend her whole time with Lady Dacey, Sansa didn't really care for it. And Bran was busy trying to climb everything.
Despite what happened to her mother and father, Sansa still prayed to the seven for them and her brothers and sister.
Sansa escaped her thoughts when Arya cleared her throat. Sansa turned her eyes to Arya.
"I have been talking with Dacey, and she offered me to foster in Bear Island, after three years," Arya announced and Sansa felt dreadful.
Sansa never liked Arya. Once, when she was little, Sansa had even asked Mother if perhaps there hadn't been some mistake. Perhaps the white walkers had stolen her real sister. But Mother had only laughed and said No, Arya was her daughter and Sansa's trueborn sister, the blood of their blood. Sansa could not think why Mother would want to lie about it, so she supposed it had to be true.
But now Sansa wanted everyone to be in Winterfell together, that would make things easier. Sometimes she still couldn't believe that she would return to Winterfell without father and mother, the servants would listen to Robb and he would be the new lord of Winterfell.
Every time she thought about it, she felt scared and alone.
"Why there?" Robb asked as he was slowly moving Rickon on his arms, up and down.
Arya turned her eyes at Robb and looked saddened.
"That is the place for me, ladies are warriors there and . . . is the perfect place for me," Arya responded with both happiness and sadness in her tone.
Sansa swallowed hard and looked at Robb, who didn't looked to agree with what she said. After a minute, Robb turned his eyes at Arya again.
"You can go Arya, but never forget that Winterfell is your home," Robb stated and Arya got up and hugged Robb. He hugged her back, and after a minute Robb pulled away trying not too weak Rickon who was sleeping peacefully on his lap.
Then Sansa remembered about their mother's disappearance. The soldiers had checked the whole North section and asked Robb questions but thankfully they left them alone. After they had left, Robb had prayed that their mother had escaped somehow and that they would never find her.
"Where do you think, mother is?" Sansa asked thoughtfully.
Arya didn't looked to want to talk about their mother and just returned to her bed and grabbed her sparring sword that Lady Dacey had gifted her.
Robb shrugged his shoulders, and just the mere mention of their mother, made him look like a little child again but as quickly as it was shown, as quickly would go away.
"I don't know, but wherever she is, I hope we meet her soon," Robb responded with a sad smile on his face and he got up and puts Rickon slowly back to his crib.
Sansa watched as Robb gave Rickon a soft kiss on his nose and returned to his bed.
"I'm not sure, how could mother even escaped, from what I heard, she just disappeared, out of thin air," Arya responded slightly confused from behind her.
Sansa thought about it but wasn't sure herself. Probably she truly escaped somehow, but if she truly did. Prince Jon would search the whole world to find her.
"It doesn't matter, wherever she is, I hope she's safe," Robb said and left the tent.
I Hope you're safe mother.
Jaehaerys Targaryen
He was ready to go to the feast and be done with it. Jae knew he would need to probably dance with some lady that he didn't care to dance with. If he could, he would spend the whole feast just sitting on his chair and wait until is done.
He heard a knock on the door, Jae got up and looked at his brother. The door opened and Elia walked inside. And behind her was Rhaenys who looked more beautiful than he could ever remember.
His brother walked forward and Jae noticed Rhaenys had his eyes on him. That made Jae blush and turn his gaze away.
Elia noticed that and smiled and Jae walked forward. Rhaenys walked closer to him.
"You look pretty Jae," she whispered and Jae turned his head in the other direction.
Jae knew he should say something to her. He swallowed hard and turned to Rhaenys.
"You look beautiful too," Jae whispered as they were joined by father, grandmother, uncle Viserys, and Dany.
Rhaenys was wearing a red dress which covered her to her knees, her dress was red. She had two gold rings in her right hand, both of them had a red ruby in the center. Around her shoulders, the dress was decorated to look like blackened dragon scales, which ended to her elbow.
Dany, on the other hand, was wearing a silver dress, it was simple but at the same time very beautiful. Made her silver hair and hunting purple eyes look prettier. But Jae noticed that the dress around her arms, looked like white scales of a dragon. Dany was wearing a golden necklace around her neck, in the center of the necklace was a red three-headed dragon.
Jae walked forward and his father and grandmother gave him and Aegon a proud look.
"You look beautiful, Dany," Jae complimented. And Dany blushed and looked directly at his eyes.
"You look handsome," she whispered and her eyes went to his lips for a split second but quickly turned to grandmother who was looking at them like a real dragon.
Jae and his family reached the big hall of Harrenhal, everyone were there and all their eyes turned to them. Dany was walking close to him and Rhaenys was close to Elia and their father. While walking to the high table, Jae noticed almost everyone's eyes were on him.
That made him feel uncomfortable, he hoped Winter was here but knew he couldn't have her here.
Jae heard people whisper different things for him when they thought that they couldn't hear them.
Jae seated close to Dany and Rhaenys. To Rhaeny's left was Egg who was looking at someone. Uncle Viserys was seated close to grandmother.
The feast started as soon as his father was seated. Lords and their families started to eat. Jae couldn't remember the last time he saw so many people in one place and so much food. Jae glanced at everyone to see if anyone was a danger towards them. Jae wished he had 'Dark Sister' but if the worse came. Jae wouldn't hesitate to use Bloodfyre.
So far no one looked suspicious, Jae knew their king's guards were behind them, ready to strike, but still the feeling of not having a sword made Jae feel unprotected and uneasy.
Jae glanced at Westerlands section and noticed who could only be, Cersei Lannister glancing at him every now and then, but Jae noticed her gaze went somewhere else too. Someone behind Jae.
Jae knew behind him was Ser Arthur and Ser Jaime. He understood who Cersei Lannister was looking at. And that look showed a lot to Jae.
"Jae," he escaped his thoughts when he heard Dany's voice calling him.
Jae turned his head to her. "What?" Jae asked not knowing why she called him.
"You haven't eaten anything, and you look worried," she whispered worriedly.
Jae understood that he should stop feeling like they will get attacked at any moment.
"Sorry, is nothing," Jae responded quietly and looked at his food.
There were many plates with roasted chicken, there was another plate with sausage covered in what looked like red dirt. Jae wasn't sure what it was. There was many other plates with different food. Jae looked as Dany was eating sausage with her fork and a little knife. Jae slowly grabbed the fork, and the knife and started cutting the sausage.
Jae didn't wanted to make a fool out of himself in front of everyone. He quickly cut a piece and eat it and helped it down with red dornish wine. Jae had to admit that it helped to swallow it. And the sausage was very chili.
Jae noticed the dornish section were close to them. Prince Oberyn was glancing at everyone every now and then. He then saw as Princess Arianne got up and walked to Rhaenys.
Jae couldn't believe how much her dress revealed. It didn't leave that much to the imagination.
"Do you like the food?" Jae heard Dany ask him. Jae turned to her. "Yes is very good," Jae responded kindly.
Jae saw Princess Arianne seated close to Egg, and was talking with him and Rhaenys.
Jae noticed the look, the flower section was giving him. Lady Margaery was talking something with who could be Lady Olenna Tyrell or as grandmother called her. 'Queen of Thorns'. His grandmother told him that it was Queen of Thorns the one who was truly in charge of House Tyrell.
Jae didn't liked the way Lady Margaery looked at him while she was betrothed to his brother. Jae knew they only cared to have more power, Jae wished his brother wouldn't marry that flower, but it wasn't up to him to decide.
"Prince Jaehaerys, how do you like the feast?" Princess Ari asked with a sly smile on her face. Jae turned to her.
"Is boring," Jae simply responded and she chuckled.
Aegon looked surprised by his answer. "I'm sure it can be fun," she responded and purred like a cat. Jae smiled but didn't like her way of talking. "I'm sure it can be princess," he responded not sure what to say to her.
She was a cousin of his sister and brother, therefore Jaehaerys didn't wanted to give her a bad impression.
They keep on talking until it was time to dance. Jae wasn't sure what to even do.
Aegon took a deep breath and got up and walked towards the flower. Jae noticed that Princess Arianne and Rhaenys didn't looked pleased with it. Princess Arianne even looked at the flower section with mockery.
But Jae knew Egg was betrothed and he needed to spend time with her.
Egg started dancing with the flower and Jae looked at the moves his brother was making. It didn't looked that hard. But Jae knew it was harder said than done.
Jae noticed Dany was glancing at him sometimes, but quickly avoiding his gaze if he turned his head to her. And Jae understood what that meant. He took a deep breath and got up and turned to Dany. Jae reached out his hand. "Can I have a dance?" Jae asked softly. A smile spread on her face, and her face brightened up. And she grabbed his hand gently.
They slowly move where the others were dancing. Jae put his hand on her waist, and she put her hands on his shoulders. She was very close to him and holding her hand with his other hand made him feel . . . strange.
Her purple eyes were focused on him, and he was focused on her, Jae wasn't sure if he was doing it right.
"Just follow my moves," she whispered when she noticed that Jae was insecure.
Jae nodded his head and followed her moves. Jae took a quick glance at the others and noticed they were focused on them. He turned to Dany who was looking at him.
From this close, Jae could feel her warm breath on his face.
"You're beautiful, Dany," Jae whispered which made Dany blush like fire.
"You're pretty, Jae," she responded softly and leaning closer to him.
"I heard you like to dance Dany," Jae whispered again as he was following her moves. She gave him a warm smile.
Jae noticed her eyes would go to his lips sometimes, but only that, nothing else. Jae felt a warm feeling from everything from her. Jae liked that feeling.
After a short time, Jae and Dany pulled away, and Jae was glad that she looked pleased. Jae turned towards his family and noticed his father looked at him with a small smirk. His grandmother glanced at both him and Dany, with a proud smile. His eyes then went to Rhaenys, who looked saddened and wasn't looking at him.
Jae walked slowly to his sister who was talking with Princess Arianne. "Princess Rhaenys, can we have a dance?" Jae asked politely and reached out his hand for her to grab.
Rhaenys turned to him, her eyebrows raised and she looked surprised but quickly turned to a warm smile on her face. She nodded her head and gently put her hand on his and Jae lead her to where the others were dancing.
Jae put his hand on her waist, and she put her hands on his shoulders. She helped him to move. Jae followed her and looked at her eyes. Her purple eyes were beautiful just like Daenerys.
"You're very beautiful, Rhaenys," Jae complimented her.
"Thank You, Jae. You're handsome too," she responded softly and gripped his hand a little tighter.
"Many lords have their eyes on you," Jae whispered and Rhaenys almost rolled her eyes at that.
"I have my eyes only in one," She whispered softly. Jae smiled and they keep dancing for a few more minutes.
Jae and Rhaenys returned back to their seats. Elia gave him a warm smile and so did his father. After he seated, Jae noticed that Egg was dancing with Princess Arianne.
Jae noticed the look of hatred in Lady Margaery's eyes when she looked at Princess Arianne.
"I thought Egg was dancing with the flower," Jae whispered at Dany who looked to enjoy the feast.
"He was but after you started dancing with Rhaenys, he stopped the dance with Lady Boring and turned to his seat, after a few moments, he asked Arianne for a dance," Dany responded with a sly smile on her face.
Jae understood that and took a sip from the dornish wine.
"Jae" he turned his head when he heard his father call him.
"How about you sing us a song, son?" His father asked kindly. Jae nodded immediately and both Dany and Rhaenys looked to like the idea.
It took 10 minutes and Egg stopped dancing with Princess Arianne and his father raised his hand to be silence. His father cleared his throat.
"Now my son, Prince Jaehaerys will sing us a song," His father announced and people started cheering.
Jae got up and swallowed a huge breath. He glanced at Egg who smiled at him.
'High in the halls of the king who are gone
Jenny would dance with her ghosts
The ones she had lost and the ones she had found
And the ones who had loved her the most
The ones who'd been gone for so very long
She couldn't remember their names
They spun her around on the damp Old Stone
Spun away all her sorrow and pain
And she never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
They danced through the day and into the night
Through the snow that swept through the hall
From winter to summer than winter again
Til the walls did crumble and fall
And she never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
And she never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
High in the halls of the kings who are gone
Jenny would dance with her ghosts
The ones she had lost and the ones she had found
And the ones who had loved her the most
They danced through the day and into the night
Through the snow that swept through the hall
From winter to summer than winter again
Til the walls did crumble and fall
And she never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
And she never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave
High in the halls of the kings who are gone
Jenny would dance with her ghosts
The ones she had lost and the ones she had found
And the ones who had loved her the most '
Jae finished singing and everyone started clapping for him. Jae looked at his family. Dany, Rhaenys, and Elia were crying, his father looked at him proudly and so did his grandmother and uncle Viserys.
Aegon gave him a warm smile and so did Princess Arianne.
Jae sat down and the feast went on. "You really have a beautiful voice brother," Rhaenys commented.
"I agree with Rhaenys, I have heard the king sing before, but you're probably better than him," Princess Arianne added with her seductive smile.
"Thank You," Jae responded and turned his head to the feast.
Later
The feast was over and Jae was returning to his bed-chamber followed by Arthur. Jae had stopped by Egg's chamber to get his swords. When the feast ended both Dany and Rhaenys kissed him on the cheek.
Jae turned his head to Arthur. "Ser Arthur, has my father ever sing since my . . . Mother?" Jae asked softly.
Arthur sighed sadly. "He did but . . . It was never the same," Arthur responded sadly and his face looked to be deep in thoughts.
Jae sighed and reached his bed-chamber and turned to Arthur. "Good night, Ser Arthur," Jae said kindly.
"Good night, your grace," Arthur said playfully and Jae rolled his eyes at that and went inside but not without hearing Arthur laughing behind him.
Morning
Jae woke up early than usual, he wanted to be there one more time before they left for King's Landing. Jae quickly got up and dressed up. He tied 'Dark Sister' on his hip and closed his eyes. Winter was close to the castle's walls.
Jae went to the door and opened it. Ser Arthur turned to him with raised eyebrows. "Why are you up so early, Jaehaerys?" He asked surprised.
"I need to go somewhere before we leave for King's landing. . . And don't try to stop me," Jae added seriously at the end. Arthur nodded in understanding and followed him behind.
Jae left the castle and started walking towards the castle's gates.
Jae turned to Arthur. "Ready a horse will be quiet a distance," Jae suggested kindly.
After they prepared a horse for Arthur, the gates were opened for them. Being outside, Winter came rushing towards him. She started licking his face and Jae stopped her immediately. "Stop, you know I don't like it," Jae said jokingly and she moved away. Jae mounts Winter and noticed a look from Arthur.
"What?" Jae asked confused. Arthur turned his head away. "Nothing," He responded playfully and Jae started riding towards where He wanted to go.
"Faster Winter," Jae said and she started riding faster than the horse, Arthur was using.
Being outside reminded Jae of his time being alone with only Winter in the woods for so long. Jae missed the feeling of freedom a little, but still having a family was better.
Jae felt Bloodfyre close and saw Bloodfyre was flying close to them. Jae knew he had avoided him since Jae burned Lady Stark. Jae knew he wanted his attention.
Arthur looked up at Bloodfyre slightly worried. Jae knew he just wanted to fly with him nothing else.
"Nothing to worry, Ser Arthur," Jae said and they keep riding towards the forest when father took him last time.
After a short time, Arthur understood where they were going.
Jae dismounted Winter after they reached the forest. Jae walks forward with Arthur behind him.
It took a short time, and Jae found the tree that their father had marked. The laughing face was still there.
Jae took a deep breath and noticed Arthur took a few steps back to give him some time alone. Jae walked closer and touched the front of the tree.
"This is a very beautiful place to meet," Jae commented and stared at the laughter face carved in the tree.
"I love them Muna, I love them and I will protect them just like I promised," Jae stated quietly and slowly moved away his hand.
"I will visit you again, and in . . . Winterfell too, when I can," Jae promised and took a step back from the tree.
Jae cleared his throat and decided to sing a song for his mother.
'Ooooooh, I am the last of the giants,
my people are gone from the earth.
The last of the great mountain giants,
who ruled all the world at my birth.
Oh the smallfolk have stolen my forests,
they've stolen my rivers and hills.
And the've built a great wall through my valleys,
and fished all the fish from my rills.
In stone halls they burn their great fires,
in stone halls they forge their sharp spears.
Whilst I walk alone in the mountains,
with no true companion but tears.
They hunt me with dogs in the daylight,
they hunt me with torches by night.
For these men who are small can never stand tall,
whilst giants still walk in the light.
Oooooooh, I am the LAST of the giants,
so learn well the words of my song.
For when I am gone the singing will fade,
and the silence shall last long and long'
Jae looked at the tree for one more minute and turned to Arthur. Jae walked back to him and didn't said anything.
After they left the forest, Jae saw Bloodfyre had landed further away, causing Arthur's horse to panic despite being very far.
"Go back, I will return later," Jae ordered. Arthur looked to disagree but didn't say anything.
"I will fly away first, then you can use your horse," Jae said and mounted Winter, and run close to Bloodfyre.
Jae got close to Bloodfyre, and he roared at him but was a friendly roar, not a threatening one.
"Is been some time," Jae commented and Bloodfyre moved his head closer and Jae touched his head, and he purred at his touch.
"I want to see DragonStone again," Bloodfyre responded.
He lowered his neck, and Jae slowly climbed on top of him. Bloodfyre spread his wings and started flying towards DragonStone.
Rhaegar Targaryen
He looked at his family as they ate food, the dragons on their shoulders, and really looking like dragon riders except Jaehaerys. He wasn't here and Rhaegar wondered where had he went. Arthur wasn't here either, at least he knew Arthur was him, but still, he didn't like that he had no idea where he went.
Rhaegar heard a knock on the door, Rhaegar knew Jae wasn't the one behind the door.
"Come in," Rhaegar commanded and Arthur walked inside, he expected to see Jae behind him but he wasn't there.
Rhaegar was about to ask where Jae was. "Where's Jae?" Elia asked slightly concerned.
"He's fine your grace and I'm not sure where he is, he woke up today early, and we went outside the castle's walls, to where you were last time with him, your grace," Arthur responded thoughtfully.
Rhaegar knew where Arthur meant, but where is Jae now?
"Where is he now?" Rhaegar asked with a high tone.
"His dragon landed close to us, and Prince Jaehaerys said that Bloodfyre wanted to fly around with him," Arthur responded respectfully.
Rhaegar didn't think about it as a bad thing, but he noticed a flash of worries showed in his mother's face for a few seconds but she quickly put her mask back.
"I hope he comes soon, we will leave for King's Landing very soon," Rhaenys commented, while she caressed Meraxe's neck.
"Ser Arthur, I want you to wait and be ready to lead Jae inside when he comes back," Rhaegar ordered, Arthur nodded his head and left the room.
After the door was closed, Rhaenys turned her head to him. "Father, where will we raise our dragons?" Rhaenys asked looking at him. Rhaegar turned his eyes at his daughter and noticed she was worried about this subject. He knew they still haven't talked with them, where they would raise them, after they are larger, and they couldn't be raised inside The Red Keep.
"After they're grown enough, they will be raised in DragonStone, which is the best place, it has a lot of open space, and is not close to the city," Rhaegar responded and saw that they looked to agree with his decision.
"Only two more years," Rhaegar heard Aegon whispered to Balerion who was funnily looking at Aegon.
They keep on eating and started making preparations to leave. It wasn't that much to be prepared. Rhaegar had already sent letters to King's Landing to inform them of his arrival and about his lost son. He also made sure to send two letters to the Night's Watch to Benjen Stark and uncle Aemon.
Later
Rhaegar saw as the door opened and Jae walked inside, he looked tired.
"Finally returned," Rhaegar said to his son, Jae gave him a warm smile.
"Come Jae, time to see your home," Elia said warmly and moved closer to Jae and hugged him tightly. She whispered something in his ear. And they both left Rhaegar's solar.
He wondered what that was about but still was happy to see that Jae liked Elia.
The Spider
As he was making his way towards the small council meeting, Varys couldn't help but wonder where did the white dragon come from.
He didn't know, and that irritated him. A dragon does not just simply show up out of thin air, Varys thought.
He reached the council meeting room and inside found, the famous Jon Connington, Hand of The King. The commander of the City Watch, Alliser Thorne. The Grand Maester Gawen of King's Landing.
Varys still remembered when Pycella was caught giving Queen Elia, poison to slowly kill her. He hasn't waited for the king's justice, he was found in his office dead.
Apparently, he poisoned himself, Varys had heard from his little birds that Prince Oberyn straight-up accused, Lord Tywin Lannister. But no proof was found to say that Lord Tywin ordered that.
That only reassured King Rhaegar even more that Tywin Lannister was responsible for Queen Elia not being able to have more children. And for Queen's Rhaella many dead children Varys thought.
Varys knew the death of the old rotten maester was a huge blow to The Citadel. It would take time to earn trust the crown's trust again.
"We have received a letter from Harrenhal, the king is returning," Maester Gawen informed quietly and looked at Lord Hand, who did a poor job at hiding his smile.
Varys fought the urge to roll his eyes every time, Lord Hand would have that smile on his face.
"That's good to know but is that the only reason you called this meeting," Lord Hand responded annoyed.
Grand Maester Gawen shooked his head. "No, apparently there has been Treason to the crown," Grand Maester Gawen responded quietly.
Anger showed in both Lord Commander of the City Watch and the Lord Hand.
"What happened?" Lord Hand asked immediately, showing anger in his tone.
"Apparently Queen Lyanna Stark never birthed a girl as Lord Eddard Stark had claimed but a boy, and the prince was alive all along, and was raised by the former lord of The North, as His Bastard son Jon Snow," Grand Maester responded quietly, and slightly annoyed by Lord Hand.
Lord Hand raised his eyebrows in confusion and surprised. "How . . . How does the king know, he is his son?" Lord Hand asked quietly.
"Is because the new prince has a dragon," Grand Maester added with a smirk, and Varys noticed the hint of fear in his tone.
"WHAT? How did he get a dragon?" Lord Hand shouted at Grand Maester.
He shrugged his shoulders and looked at Lord Hand as he was the biggest fool in the world.
"I don't know, that's what the king stated, now he's returning to King's Landing with the new prince and the rest of the royal family" Grand Maester responded quietly.
Lord Hand turned his head away, and he started gritting his teeth, and his hands were clenched together.
"Did the new prince give the dragon to the crown prince?" Lord Hand asked seriously and turned his head at the grand maester again.
The grand maester shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know the king said that the dragon was of Prince Jaehaerys Targaryen, . . . and I don't think dragons can just change riders" grand maester added at them quietly. Unless the rider dies Varys thought.
Lord Hand left out a small mocking laugh. "So the ba . . . Wants the dragon for himself," Lord Hand responded with an accusation tone.
That was noticed by everyone in the room, but no one said anything.
After a few moments, Grand Maester cleared his throat. "The king has ordered to prepare a room for Prince Jaehaerys in the royal quarters," Grand Maester added and Lord Hand didn't look to like the idea.
Varys found all this very amusing. A new player has entered the game Varys thought.
"That's all for today," Grand Maester finished.
Jaehaerys Targaryen - 9 Days Later
Jae knew they were close to King's Landing. He was riding on Winter, despite his father telling him to be inside the carriage, Jae found it better to be outside and not inside that carriage.
Bloodfyre followed him and sometimes would show himself high in the sky, making the new dragons cry loudly. Meraxes had grown quite a bit, she now was the size of two cats. Right now she was the largest of the new dragons.
It was hard to control them, many times they were forced to put them in big cages, Jae knew that wasn't the smartest idea. The dragons needed to be free, even Bloodfyre told him to not keep them locked. Thankfully most of the time they were free dragons. None of them were able to fly yet or breathe fire. Despite everyone trying to make their dragons breathe fire. Rhaenys especially tried the hardest, but with no results.
Jae had said goodbye to lord Howland before he made his way to Castle Black. He told him to be careful with warging, every time you warg, a part of the beast goes into you. Jae understood what he meant and wondered if that's why he lost control and felt like a fire inside.
Jae escaped his thoughts when he looked in front of him and could see King's Landing from very far, even being this far and outside, the castle's walls. Jae could see a little of The Red Keep.
It looks like is really red Jae thought.
Seeing the walls, Jae remembered that Winter can't come inside with him. Jae knew she would have not liked to live inside a castle, she always was wild, and always lived out there, forcing her to live in a castle would be like to force a dragon to live in a cage. Jae had already decided to leave her in the forest near King's Landing, she would hopefully survive there.
Jae sighed sadly and walked back to where the carriage was. Jae turned to his father who turned his head to him and looked at him through the window of the carriage. Elia was sleeping on his shoulder.
"I need to go somewhere, I will return soon," Jae stated, his father looked surprised and confused. "Where are you going?" He asked immediately.
"I will return soon," Jae responded and started riding away from there to the forest. Jae kept riding and soon was deep in the forest.
Jae stopped once he thought they were deep enough. Jae looked around and saw Ser Arthur following him behind.
Jae turned his head to Winter who was looking around. Jae sighed sadly and dismounted Winter, who had her tongue out and looked tired. Jae put his hand on her head and she looked at his eyes.
"Thank You for being there for me, but is better for you to live out here," Jae said as tears were in his eyes. Winter stopped moving her tail and looked saddened and moved her head forward. Jae slowly hugged her head, and she whined. Jae felt her resting her head on the back of his neck.
"I will see you again whenever I can," Jae promised and slowly pulled away. Tears rolling down freely, Winter leaned closer and licked the part of his cheek where his tears were.
Jae laughed and petted Winter on her head. "Now be a good girl," Jae said quietly and her brown eyes looked at his very soul.
She then slowly moved her head away and started walking away. Jae looked at her as the light of the sun, made her silver fur shine.
She stopped and looked back at him. She had her tail between her legs, and then she started running away.
Jae closed his eyes tightly and used his forearm to remove the tears from his face. Jae opened his eyes and turned to see Arthur waiting for him. Jae took a deep breath and slowly walked back to him.
"We can stay more if you want," Arthur suggested but Jae just shooked his head and passed him without saying anything.
We, Will, meet again Winter Jae swore and returned back to his family.
Jae this time went inside the carriage where his brother and sister was. When they saw him return without Winter, they knew where she was.
Jae just rested his head on the opening of the window and just stared at the walls as they were getting closer.
"Jae, I'm sure she will be fine," Jae heard Rhaeny's voice.
"I'm sure too," Jae responded and wanted to rest.
As they got closer and closer to the gates, Jae saw the walls were large. Jae knew Bloodfyre was flying around but as long as he didn't flied down, and scare the whole city.
Jae saw the gates were opened and the soldiers left them inside. Jae started to look around when they entered. Many people had gathered to greet them. All of them shouting. "Rhaegar The Good," or "Long Live The King,". Jae saw man, women, and children cheering for them.
Jae felt happy to see that the people of King's landing looked to like his father. Jae had always heard only good things about his father, even when he was in Winterfell.
Jae saw there were many soldiers around, probably the gold cloaks. But Jae noticed some of the gold cloaks were glancing at him. Probably wondering who was this black-haired man with the royal family.
Jae saw Visenya's hill. At top of it was build The Great Sept of Baelor.
Jae had read about the sept in Winterfell. The Great Sept of Baelor was named after the Septon-king Baelor the Blessed. Surrounded by a white marble plaza. It features a statue of Baelor, which stands tall and serene upon his plinth; his face is a study of benevolence. Large gardens, capable of holding hundreds of people, surround the sept.
The sept is an impressive marble dome structure with seven crystal towers, each of which has bells. Only on momentous occasions, such as the death of a king, are all of them rung. The lofty dome is made of glass and gold and crystal. Around the doors leading into the building is a raised marble pulpit from which a septon can address a gathering crowd.
Jae then turned to see Rhaeny's hill. Jae knew The Dragon Pit was there, the only thing left there was what was left of what it was. Only ruins.
The Sept of Remembrance was first raised on the hill as a memorial to Rhaenys, who was lost during the First Dornish War.
In 42 AC during the Faith Militant uprising, King Maegor I Targaryen destroyed the sept with the Dragonfire of Balerion, as the building had been fortified by Warrior's Sons during the reign of King Aenys I Targaryen. Maegor decreed that a large domed structure, the Dragonpit, would be built on the hill for Targaryens to house its royal dragons.
Which lead to 'The Storming of The Dragon Pit', Jae felt anger whenever he thought about that.
Jae saw as they were getting closer to The Red Keep, Aegon's Hill where the Red Keep was built on. Aegon's Hill looked to be the tallest of the three hills.
They soon reached a big gate made of what looks like bronze, with a big Targaryen sigil in the center. The place was full of guards.
"We have to leave the carriage, Jae," Jae heard Aegon, and Jae opened the small door and stepped outside.
Jae walked forward and stood behind his father and so did Rhaenys and the others except for Elia who stood by his father's left side.
The soldiers all kneel to them, but Jae noticed the little looks he got from the soldiers there. There were three-man in front of the door.
An old man, who had a small cut on his cheek, and long white hair with a small beard. The second one was bold as an egg, the last one had red hair and a beard, and had an annoying smirk on his face.
"Attention everyone," His father shouted with authority to everyone. His father glanced at him and Jae walked forward.
"This is my son, Prince Jaehaerys Targaryen," His father shouted and pointed his hand towards him. Jae didn't say anything and didn't even know what to say.
The soldiers and the three men bowed their heads in respect, and the door opened and Jae followed his father inside. Walking inside and this place already looked like a maze.
Jae followed his family. Everywhere he looked, he could see Targaryen sigils, or little dragon statues around.
"Jae, follow me to the small council meeting room, the others return to your rooms," his father ordered and Jae nodded his head.
The others left and Jae followed his father, Elia, and Grandmother.
Jae noticed the way the man with red hair would glance at him. The way he looked annoyed Jae.
The door opened and Jae entered the throne room. Jae's eyes went to the throne itself. Jae understood now why Daenerys was scared of the throne when she was little. The throne was very large and looking at it now, Jae couldn't understand how someone could even sit in it. The sword looked to be as sharp as the day, they were made.
In the sides of the hall were placed the skulls of the old dragons. Jae's eyes go to the largest one. Balerion The Black Dread, his mouth was larger than a horse, but looking at it now. Jae was sure Bloodfyre was slightly larger than Balerion.
"Fascinating isn't it," Jae heard the red-haired man said to him with a stupid smirk.
Jae turned his eyes to him. "What is?" Jae asked keeping the mask on. "The throne, many people tried to take it, like the blackfyres, but in the end, they all failed," the red-haired man added with a neutral tone that Jae didn't like.
His father shot the man a deadly glare. And so did Elia and Grandmother.
"You are?" Jae asked slightly angered with this man.
"I'm the hand of the king, Lord Jon Connington," Lord Hand responded proudly at himself and putting a fully open hand on his chest.
The old man then turned to him. "Is good to meet you, your grace, I'm grand maester Gawen," the old man greeted him. Jae looked at him and shaked his hand.
He then turned to the bald one. "I'm Varys, the master of Whispers" the man softly said and reached out his hand. Jae felt the perfume on his hands. Jae shaked his hand but looking at his face. Jae didn't trusted him.
"Varys, not Lord Varys?" Jae asked.
Varys purred like a cat and gave him a smile that Jae knew was a fake one.
"Just Varys, I lost my name a long time ago," Varys responded quietly.
Jae pulled his hand away. Jae didn't care to talk to him, they reached a door behind the throne.
They reached a room, Jae looked at the chairs, and each chair had a Targaryen sigil and was covered in red and black. The table had a Targaryen sigil in the front, and the table looked to be covered in gold.
His father seated and so did the three other men. "Now Everyone, as I have mentioned in the letter, My son Jaehaerys Targaryen has a dragon, "Bloodfyre" " his father announced and saw the disapproval look of Lord Hand. Jae closed his fists tightly. And looked at the old man. Grand Maester Gawen didn't looked to either care or not care about the dragon. Jae then turned to Lord Varys.
Even from here, Jae could feel the perfume he was using. His face was different, he was good at hiding emotions, almost like a mummer.
"Now, since we are alone now, I have to announce something," his father stated with a high tone, and the three men leaned closer interested.
"I will rebuild Summerhall and Prince Jaehaerys will be the prince of Summerhall," his father announced proudly, and spreading his arms a bit.
Lord Varys's face looked neutral, and Jae couldn't tell how he reacted to that. While Lord Hand looked to disapprove.
"Your grace, that is a huge amount of gold to spend," Lord Hand responded looking at his father but glancing at Jae.
His father looked at him, and Lord Hand closed his mouth. "I will start the rebuild of Summerhall as soon as possible, this is settled, once Lord Tyrell arrives, I will discuss the gold," His father stated.
Jae noticed Elia looked furious but that was nothing compared to the grandmother who looked ready to burn the lord Hand.
His father took a deep breath and turned to Jae. "You can go now Jae," his father said quietly.
Jae nodded and turned to leave. Leaving the room, Jae saw Arthur waiting for him there.
"I hope you know the place," Jae jested and Arthur laughed. And lead him towards his bed-chamber. Jae walked inside and could see this chamber was larger than the chamber in Harrenhal.
The hearth was burning hot, and Jae noticed a stone carved at the hearth with the symbol of his house. The bed was larger than it should be. It had at least five pillows, with dragons drawn.
The footboard had the three-headed dragon in the center. And around looked like scales of a dragon.
There were three tables in the chamber, and Jae noticed a small pile of books in one of the tables in the corner of the room.
Jae wished Winter was with him here. Jae sighed and closed his eyes, Bloodfyre was close and many people probably could see him. Jae hoped his father would tell the people of King's Landing about Bloodfyre. So they won't get scared of him. Jae walked to a window and looked outside. Jae could see the Narrow Sea and The Blackwater Bay. The city looked beautiful and from what Dany and Rhaenys had told him. It doesn't stink like it used to do.
This is my Home
A Warrior Princess
She felt the cold outside no matter how many furs she used to cover herself with. The harsh Winds of Winter, making sounds outside as they hit the tent and the coldness slowly went inside and freezing everything.
Beyond the wall is so cold and harsh, that wildlings don't name their children until they reach two name days, due to many children not surviving.
What is Mance thinking? She asked herself but still couldn't find an answer. She knew is fruitless to try and chase that white dragon.
Since the dragon showed up beyond the wall, things had changed for both the worst and the better.
Val remembered the first time she saw that beast.
' Val made her way to a small white rabbit that a free folk shot with an arrow. The arrow had gone right through the head.
"Is nothing, we need to find more," Val said and looked around for any other animal. Val heard footsteps behind and saw the free folk with a bow on his hand coming closer with Aktin and Tormund.
"I wouldn't mind finding some dire wolves, they would be quite a good meal," Tormund said looking at her.
"The dire wolves hunt in packs, they would tear us apart without much of a try," Val responded annoyed and the winds hitting her naked skin of her face, sending cold shivers in her whole body.
"Do you think Mance will be able to get The Giants in our side?" Aktin asked thoughtfully and looked at Tormund who just shrugged his shoulders.
"They're big fuckers, they're hard to convince," Tormund responded but Val heard something, and stopped walking.
"Stop," Val said seriously and they all stopped.
"What's wrong?" Tormund asked and looking around and his hand slowly going to his axe.
"Did you hear this?" Val asked seriously, and they looked to not have heard anything. When suddenly all of them heard a huge roar.
They all pulled out their weapons, Val started looking around, to see who could make that sound. They were staying back to the back of each other. Val's eyes then went up to the sky and saw the most terrifying thing.
"Old Gods help us," Val begged and saw what looked like a creature she had never seen before. All white like snow.
"Is a dragon," Aktin shouted shocked as she kept looking at the white beast flying away.
After that day, Val had seen dreams of the dragon sometimes, but nothing happened, just the dragon flying around. Mance wanted to know if any Warg could get the control of the dragon. But no results, the dragon would fly away before anyone could do anything. And some wargs stated that it was beyond foolish to try and warg a dragon.
Val remembered some free folk clamming that the white dragon, or as Free Folk called her. 'The Spirit of Winter'. They claimed that the dragon froze some dead fuckers when they attacked them. Then the dragon flew away immediately.
Since that day Mance was convinced that they could use the dragon for their own benefit and finally leave this place and go south, to the wall. Val on the other hand wasn't convinced, she had seen the beast only twice, and was large, far larger than any other creature she had seen. She was sure someone can't just take control of the beast.
Since the dragon came, some parts of the North were much colder than before. Val didn't know what that dragon was doing here, but one thing she noticed was that the water close to the dragon froze when the dragon breathed, what looked like frozen flames.
Val had heard Mance telling Varamyr to try and warg the white beast. Varamyr differently known as 'Varamyr Sixskins'. Who controls three wolves, a snow bear, a Shadowcat, and an eagle. He was the best skinchanger they had, but even he said that trying to warg a beast like a dragon, might be harder than that of a human.
Val now was leading a mission with a group of Free folks and with them was Varamyr and Orell. Mance hoped they would be able to tame the beast. And another group was sent to find the horn of Winter.
Thousands of years ago, Joramun, a King-Beyond-the-Wall, supposedly blew the horn and woke giants from the earth. Free folk believes that blowing the horn can bring down the Wall. That's why the horn is also named. Joramun's Horn.
Val didn't know how this mission would go, but she hoped it would succeed and they can finally go away from the dead and their giant spiders. To help her people, she was tired of babies dying in their cribs, and children wanting food that they didn't have. Val wanted the best for them, and would make sure to do her best.
Val took a deep breath and slowly got up, she had slept with her clothes on and grabbed her sword from the ground. She slowly opened the tent and looked outside. The winds hit her face, sending cold shivers in her body. She looked outside at the sight of the massive wall of ice. Even being very far from the wall, someone could still see the wall from very far.
Val covered her face, except her eyes, and looked up in the sky.
Where are you?
ACT I COMPLETED
Next chapter takes place a few years after this chapter.
