123 AC, Dragonstone
It took a lot of convincing to get her Grandparents to agree on the trip to Winterfell, despite the fact that it was the largest castle in the North and that she would be under the protection of the Potters.
Well, she could see their thoughts,...

Rhaena walked across the fortress of Dragonstone with a skip in her steps. Most people would have likely worried, as she had just witnessed seven shadows almost kill Lord Harry the previous night.

Larys Strong had all but run away from the cursed fortress, his heart beating loudly, each breath becoming more uneven than the last. The only reason he hadn’t run away was because of his clubbed feet. He needed to stay away from the monster in huma...

Rhaenys was halfway turned when Harry raised a hand casually, “Stay a moment, will you? I gave you time just as you asked, but I think it’s time we had a proper talk about Rhaena.”

Rhaena Targaryen walked out of the odd dinner, alongside her sister, feeling like it had all been a waste of time. She could have been playing with Solarys, or even better, visiting the Potters. She still craved whatever that weird hot brown drink ca...

123 AC, Dragonstone
Aegon Targaryen heavily disliked being on Dragonstone. It was a stark reminder of the King’s preference for Rhaenyra over any of his other children. Even before he was bedridden, he rarely spoke with any of them, and now, after years of not speaking ...

123 AC, Qarth
Growing up, Thalor Thornezh knew that Qarth was the most beautiful city in the world, and in all his years, he never found reason to deny it. After all, their city had predated Valyria itself, and perhaps even more than any other human settlement, enough th...
