Chapter Seventy
Dorne
Gregor Clegane sat inside the dungeon, his nether regions bandaged yet still bleeding. The gods, wherever they are must be cruel. The bitch of an empress just disarmed me like thatโ
A presence poked his waist, prompting him to snap out of his musings. He did not expect to find a three to four-year-old child standing beside him, stab wounds covering her body. Her large, innocent looking eyes stared into his own, making him feel something for once in his life.
"Mister giant! " said she, sticking her tongue out as the imprisoned false Knight realized who she was.
"R-Rhaenys!?"
The deceased princess turned around, and made funny faces at him. Not funny for the hauntrd criminal, who was about to scream.
"Don't be scared~ I just want to be friends." little Rhaenys tried to reassure him.
"No, you are not my friend! " replied the Lannister lapdog, who tried to cover his eyes.
A stranger's laugh echoed inside the cell, soon revealing the form of a slightly tall woman with striking features. Her grey eyes examined the room, not minding the bloodstained Knight sitting in the room. Poor Rhaenys, she reflected. The princess had lived a lide too short.
"Rhae-Rhae, come here. Egg is looking for you. " she called out.
Rhaenys turned her eyes to the Stark lady, but ignored her.
"But I wanna make friends with the giant." she reasoned.
"Oksy. Kero him occupied until his interview with your uncle " chuckled Lyanna, who couldn't tell the girl the awful truth of who had sent her to the afterlife. Perhaoe Rhaenys indeed remembered the bad man, but chose to hide the memory away. Such a strong mind, she realized.
She left the child to her play, as Gregor Clegane screamed his heart out.
Oberyn entered the cell, wondering whst his previous prisoner had been doing lately. To hear him scream that loudly was music to his ears.
"She's here, Rhaenys Targaryen! "
"Awww~ The Mountain, scared of ghost?"
"No, your niece has been making faces at me! "
Oberyn laughed it off, thinking it was the best kind of karma that had befallen the False Knight. He left the man to his delusions, smirking at the turn of events.
" Please, don't hurt me... please " The little girl mumbled.
" At ease, little one I am no mood or state to hurt you " Gregor replied
" Why did you kill my brother, why are you so cruel? " the girl yelled, standing up facing the man.
"Just following orders. " he replied, and sat back.
Rhaenys decided to do childlike things, while the imprisoned Knight tried to sleep. He would soon find a way to escape this madness... and get rid of that pesky ghost too.

Catelyn could bear this no more. On top of being regarded as an outcast by her son, she learned very recently of her father's passing. She had cried herself to sleep for the past few days; she had loved her father just as much as she loved Ned. If there was a quote from history that she could remember, it was Princess Rhaenys Targaryen's.
"The Stranger has visited me more times than I can count. "
First her mother and all of her dead siblings, then Lysa's unborn child, then Brandon Stark, then Ned and now her father. What have I done to deserve this? she asked herself.
" The gods don't like it when you swear oaths to them and break them. They aren't the forgiving type and are vengeful. " A voice said behind her.
The Tully mother turned around and saw Hayate standing there staring at her, " Oh, I know that it seems they have found a way of making me suffer.... first with my son turning away from me and into the arms of that girl, next my children taken away from, my father dying and my husband murdered. "
" I suppose the only thing left to take away from me is my head " she added.
Hayate chuckled at the dark humor of who was once a proud mother of five.
" How are my children?"
"They are starting anew. Sansa needs to learn the ways of governance, just as your father taught them to you."
"Yes... when I was his heir. Ever since Edmyre came along, he had stopped. "
"Perhaps this is the late Lord Hoster's greatest loss. If he thought that women were too emotional to rule, look how the realm turned out. "
Catelyn understood the slight jab at her father, but kept her reactions to herself.
"Has Lyarrs birthed her child yet?" ahe spoke up after a few moments.
"Children, triplets Lady Stark, two boys and a girl They're a few months old now. "
"Let me guess... Do they look like gray-eyed Lannisters? "
" The girl takes after her mother, but the boys take after their father Lord Jaime through and through " Hayate responded.
Catelyn's face looked miserable at this point. Ned, you honorable spineless wolf... you should not have married our Lyarra off to the Kingslayer!
" Are they healthy? " she asked.
" Yes, healthy as a horse. " The old spirit smiled.
" I hope she has some nursemaids with her to help, a brand new mother needs all the help she can get but unfortunately in Lya's case she has to hide in exile and can't trust anyone for they could be a spy or assassin sent by the Queen herself. " Catelyn said.
" My daughter's reputation and life has all but been ruined by the Kingslayer and the Lannisters, now she will bear the Lannister name for the rest of her name... Lord Tywin will no doubt want his grandchildren back " she added.
" If only things were different, maybe if I was married to Brandon originally then perhaps my children's fates would be different but no, that blasted dragon prince's whore stealer had to seduce and steal him away from me. " Catelyn snarled.
" It's funny, when I learned of her death I couldn't be happier she was gone yet Brandon was gone too.... my first love and I had to marry Ned who I grew to love but he shamed me by bedding another women, brining that bastard home with him and raised him with our true born children, If only Shaena never would've gotten in the way of me and Brandon "
"Perhaps you might be glad that his daughter is in exile then, married to the man who killed her grandsire of sorts. " Hayate quipped.
"I thought Shaena's daughter was stillborn?"
"Apparently not. She's been hiding in plain sight for so many years and you didn't notice. "
" I don't understand, Ned told me Shaena died giving birth to a stillborn daughter and brought their bodies home and buried it next to Brandon through I don't know why he did that, dragons don't fare well in the north and belong in the south. "
"Wait... " she paused, realization slowly sinking in. She had noted how out of all her children, Lyarea was the only one who had powers, and how Ned always spent time dying the girl's hair...
"No.... no! Ned could never lie to me." she stammered, tears falling from her cheeks.
"If there is anything Ned loved more than you, it is his brothers, his sister and their children. Brandon never loved you, Princess Shaena was always the woman he sought after from the start. It's time to face the music, Lady Stark. You will always be second place in a Stark's heart."
Catekyn let out a mournful scream, all traces of hope lost. Brandon never loved her, Ned lied to her, and Lyarra was in fact, the child of the man she loved and the girl she hated. Watching Hayate disappear into the sunset, she cried herself to sleep, just as she had done ever since Robb turned away from her.

Elaena sat outside of her camp sat upon a high cliff watching as Eddarion and Jamerion flew in the skies, the two tugging over a piece of fish , Crystal laid by her feet snuggling.
Meraxes on one of her shoulders nuzzling while Cashaena rests on one of her knees, Fialova and Dreamfrye flying around her playing with one another.
She had marched on with her new army for days leading them out of what was once known as New Ghis; they had been marching for a while until she decided to make camp for the night.
She had debated on using her new fleet to sail somewhere but was hesitant knowing she may be easily spotted in the open, traveling on horseback was more safe.
Later on, she would talk to the leaders of The Ghiscari and introduce herself.... As the sun began to set, she began to get lost in her thoughts thinking of how things have changed.
Elaena began to think back to her days in Winterfell with her family, how happy they all were but now their pack was split up divided by lions, krakens and stags.
She also thought about her brother Robb and mother Robb hoping they were okay but couldn't help shake the bad feeling she was getting from his wife Lady Jeyne worrying that Lord Varys claims were true about her being a spy for Lord Tywin and was just using him.
No doubt the Lannisters would dream to see her brother's demise and would do whatever it took to achieve that, if only it was safe enough to return to Westeros briefly but knew it was too risky especially if her dragons weren't grown yet.
The young dragon wolf thoughts began to turn to her husband, it pained her he was suffering, dealing with all this by himself and prayed he would return to king's landing safely where his family and Leo was.
Cersei and Leo would keep him company and bring his spirits up, the lioness loved her brother more than anything in this world. Hopefully she'll be warm and loving to Jaime, and accept him back into his arms where he belonged.
Elaena was distracted by her thoughts not hearing Cadal approaching her.
" Are you okay, your grace?" Cadal asked. " I am sorry to disturb you I didn't see you at dinner and wanted to make sure you were alright " He said making the young ice dragon turn a bit, as she turned Meraxes and Filaova took off the skies along with Dreamfrye and Cathshaena joining their siblings.
" Yes, I was just thinking, come sit " Elaena said gesturing to him to take a seat beside the rock she was sitting on. Cadal smiled at that and took a seat beside her.
" You know what I said a few days ago applies to you as well " Elaena said, glancing at him. " You don't have to serve me if you don't wish to and if you do I won't treat you like some mere servant you'll be much more than that.
" I know, " Cadal smiled. " You're a leader that people are in need of around in Essos.
" I'm trying to be, " Elaena mumbled. " I just want to live in peace and help people in need, I want to change the world for the better.
" Its quite hard to change the entire world, " Cadal said. " Everyone has their own beliefs and religions you can't change everyone"
" No, " Elaena said. " I mean here in Essos with Slavery. " I dream of a world in Essos where slavery is banned, everyone is free and happy to choose whatever they want.
" It could take a lifetime, your grace to achieve that goal, " Cadal commented. " Would you spend your whole life across the sea trying to achieve that and never return home to your family.
" Westeros isn't my home anymore " Elaena repiled. " Winterfell is gone, burnt down by Theon and the iron horns , The north is scattered and I'm considered an outcast now, A Lannister to them.
" The north would never accept me back " Elaena explained. " My brother has already stripped me of my titles and claims I can never return home and I have accepted that ".
" Your brother/cousin has no right to do that, he's not even the heir to the north you are " Cadal exclaimed. " Are you really just gonna sit back and let him throw you out of your home and your kingdom.
" I'm not the heir nor do I want to be, " Elaena said. " I don't want to be queen, I just want to raise my children in peace away from Westeros and all the danger that surrounds there "
" You're destined for greatness, your grace " Cadal said. " Your place isn't here in exile, it's in the North where you belong.
" My life is in Essos now and I think I can make a new life here for myself and my children, " Elaena said. " I can bring a new change around here.
" Like ruling over the free cities " Cadal teased.
" No, " Elaena answered. " I'm not some conqueror like my ancestors, I mean maybe I could build my own free city and make it a place full of happiness, freedom, something dynamite. Somewhere people can feel safe and be whoever they want to be.
" And what would this city be like? " Cadal asked curiously on the princess's ideas.
" Well, I would like to make the city feel like home to my dragons and perhaps I could maybe rebuild a New Valyria one day but different " Elaena said.
" Valyria was one of the greatest city alive in Essos, rebuilding could take ages but it sounds like a wonderful idea " Cadal smiled.
" It wouldn't just be a place for dragons, it would be also be for wolves too, almost like a city combined of ice and fire " Elaena responded.
" Hmm " Cadal nodded.
" I'm not sure yet " Elaena signed. " But, I would like to balance the two elements together and combine it into one "
" Well,your grace, it sounds like a wonderful idea, " Cadal said. " I will support whatever you do , I will stand with you until the end of my days ".
Elaena smiled at that glancing at her friend, " Thank you "
" Np, again I stand with you, " Cadal said, grabbing her hands while staring at her deeply. He pushed a loose silver lock of hair behind her and stroked her check gently.
Elaena locked eyes with him staring at him deeply, Cadal was about to lean in closer to her until they heads a vocie clear behind them stopped them.
Elaena looked up seeing Samara standing there staring at the two curiously and slight shock, " Samara " Elaena said.
" Lady Samara " Cadal greeted turning his head around, staring at her.
" Andros is looking for you, he needs your help put up one of the tents up, " Samara said.
Cadal nodded, getting up and walking past Samara, his eyes not meeting hers too embarrassed to say anything, once he was out of earshot. Samara made her way towards her friend taking a seat beside her and said, " Have I interrupted something "
" No, we were just talking " Elaena responded..
" It seemed to be more than talking to me " Samara
mumbled.
" What " Elaena said.
" He likes you, " Samara said. " Have you seen the way he looks at you, "
" Cadal " Elaena laughed. " He was just being friendly.
" Yeah, sure, " Samara snorted.
" Anyway, have you heard from Fuyutsuki or gotten any word " Elaena asked.
" No, sadly not " Samara signed. " Haycate claims he's fine and is just resting but I can't help but worry that Fuyutsuki is a much worse condition "
" All we can do is pray and wait " Elaena mumbled.
The young ice dragon closed her eyes and stared to pray to the old gods and faith to watch over her fallen friend and let him fully recover.
King's Landing
A certain clever lion was sitting across from his lion father in silence. Tyrion glanced at his father trying to get his attention but Tywin eyes remained on the paper and continue to write paying his imp son no mind.
" You brought a whore into my bed " Tywin spoke, glancing at his imp son coldly.
" It wasn't your bed at the time " Tyrion repiled.
" I sent you here to advise the king, " Tywin said. " I gave you real power and authority. "You chose to spend your days as you always have, bedding harlots and drinking with thieves.
" Occasionally I drank with the harlots " Tyrion defended.
Tywin stared deeply at his son, " What do you want, Tyrion?"
" Why does everyone assume I want something? " Tyrion scoffed. " Can't I simply visit with my beloved father?. " My beloved father who somehow forgot to visit his wounded son after he fell on the battlefield.
" Maester Pycelle assured me your wounds were not fatal " Tywin seethed. " Beside, I have been doing much more important than watch you lay weak in bed."
" I organized the defense of this city while you held court in the ruins of Harrenhal " Tryion states. " I led the foray when the enemies were at the gate while your grandson, the king, quivered in fear behind the walls. " I bled in the mud for our family. " And as my reward, I was trundled off to some dark little cell. " But what do I want?. " A little bloody gratitude would be a start. " Jugglers and singers require applause.
" You are a Lannister, " Tywin repiled. " Do you think I demanded a garland of roses every time I suffered a wound on a b*ttlefield? Hmm?. " Now, I have seven kingdoms to look after and three of them are in open rebellion. " So tell me what you want.
" I want what is mine by right, " Tryion answered. " Jaime is your eldest son, heir to your lands and titles. " But, he doesn't have a wife anymore since Lady Lyarra has perished and i doubt he'll want to remarry again.
" Yes, " Tywin said. " But, it doesn't matter because I have found Jaime a new wife. " Lady Olenna and I were talking and have agreed to make another union of House Lannister and Tryell.
" And who shall Jaime marry? Tryion questioned.
" Euphraise Tryell, she's very beautiful and young, " Tywin answered. " Very suitable and dutiful, capable of providing Jaime with many heirs, something Lady Lyarra couldn't do."
" Oh, father if only you knew, " Tryion thought, thinking back on his good sister in law and his nephews and niece.
Lord Varys had gotten a letter from his friend Magister illyrio informing him of the births of the new princes and princesses of the kingdom of the north and west.
Three children that came from three ancient powerful houses, a lion, dragon and wolf all combined into one. " How, his sister would be in ernaged if she learned the truth about it.
His sister in law did something that none else in the Lannister family ever did, giving birth to triplets at a young age, two boys and one girl.
Tryion admired her even more for it, at just the age of 16 named she was a mother not only only to her children but to dragons as well and on top of that had ice magical powers.
" How wonderful, '' Tryion said sarcastically, finally finding his voice. " I am sure Jaime would be thrilled to hear how you have married him off again without his permission and not let him even grieve his wife properly. " It's only been a year."
" People die, " Tywin repiled. " Jaime will get over it and find that his new wife is a much better accommodation for him, more easier for him to tame and handle."
" A wife who he will never love " Tryion commented..
" Love " Tywin scoffed. " Don't be foolish, love is a weakness and tends to make people do stupid things. " Like the young wolf, he married a woman from our house vessel and broke his agreement with Freys and will soon pay for it. " Because unlike the Starks, we Lannister always kept our word and paid our debts.
" You loved mother, " Tyrion pointed out.
" Of course I did, " Tywin said. " And I always will, she was a lioness, my lioness and a Lannister. "
" You don't get it, father " Tryion said glancing at her father.
" I don't get what " Tywin asked.
" Jaime loves Lyarra, '' Tryion replied . " He always will and never will remarry. " A love like that is too hard to forget."
" As I said Jaime will do whatever I tell him to do " Tywin said sternly. " As will you and your sister, the future of our house is uncertain. '' Jaime needs heirs, sons to leave Casterly Rock to. " He doesn't have to love the girl or be kind to her all he needs to do is put a child in her and be done with it.
" And is Lady Euphrasie happy with this arrangement? " Tryion asked.
" It doesn't matter, " Tywin said. " She will do as she is ordered and do her duty to Jaime. '' From what I can gather Lady Euphraise is very intelligent and know it's not wise to refuse a command.
" Father, please don't make her do this, " Tryion pleaded.
" The matter is final, " Tywin said. " Now, all we have to do is find a way to secure the north, the riverlands and the stormlands in our grasp. " Tommen has suggested a match between him and Lady Shireen which I think is a quality deal.
" Cersei won't like that, " Tryion said.
" It doesn't matter what your sister doesn't like, " Tywin answered. " She will do whatever I tell her to do and accept it.
" And what of the north and the riverlands how will you secure that " Tryion asked.
" When the young wolf falls, which he will soon enough as he has half the numbers and no longer has the Frey support , '' Tywin said. " I shall take Catelyn Tully Stark as my wife.
" WHAT " Tyrion said in shock tone staring at his father in disbelief. " You can't be seriously "
" I am, '' Tywin said. " Once I am able to secure Rickon Stark to King's Landing from the heretics, I shall secure a match between the young wild wolf and Lady Joy.
" He's a child " Tyrion exclaimed.
" He won't be a child for long " Tywin repiled. " The marriage won't be consummated until he is of age.
" Catelyn Stark will never agree to marry you, " Tryion said.
" She will if she wishes for her son to live " Tywin said darkly. " I only need one of them alive.
" What of Sansa Stark and Arya Stark? " Tyrion asked. " What if they're still alive.
" If they are then we will simply bring them back here to King's Landing, If we find Sansa Stark then I will wed her off to you and we will no longer need the Stark boy " Tywin responded.
" She is a child, " Tyrion yelled. " I will not marry a child bride"
" You will do whatever I tell you to do " Tywin boomed, hitting his fists on the desk loudly. " Sansa Stark is a better reward than you can hope for or deserve.
" And if I refuse, " Tryion challenged.
" It seems you didn't learn your lesson last time, " Tywin said looking at his imp son coldly, his green eyes piercing into his " Perhaps, I may need to remind you again.
Tyrion's eyes widened in fear at his father's words and tried not to imagine what his father would do to Shae as he did to Tysha. He wouldn't let that happened again, " I have to get Shae out of here "
" I have learned my lesson, " Tryion said.
" Good, " Tywin smirked. " Now, leave me. I have things to attend to. " And one more thing if I find that whore still in this castle then I will hand her off to the soldier to make use of. " I am sure they will find many uses for her, maybe Ser Gregor."
" Ser Gregor has been captured by the Martells, " Tryion said.
" WHAT " Tywin yelled. " Impossible"
" I hate to burst your bubbles father but it's true " Tryion smirked. " When Cersei sent him to Karmakarma to kill the young Stark boy, the empress seduced him into her bed and then knocked him out with a sleeping potion before stripping him naked and shipped him off in a crate to Donne."
" That fool " Tywin hissed.
Tyrion got up from his seat walking out of his room leaving his father to skulk about. The clever lion knew he would have to get his lover out of King's Landing today before his father got to her.
Astapor
Daenerys was in her tent cuddling with her little cubs, they were growing bigger each passing day. A year ago they were the size of infants but knew they were the size of toddlers and now had a full head of hair on their heads.
Rhaego and Rhaella were on the carpet playing with their toys that Missandei had created for them and babbled out random things.
The mother of dragons smiled at what she was witnessing in front of him. For as long as she could she had felt alone and longed for a real family, Daenerys dreamed of having that with Viserys and did for a time before he changed into a vicious person.
After selling their mother's crown, Viserys had grown to be cold and vicious just like their father and would take his anger out on her all the time claiming she was the reason why their mother did which was true she did kill her mother by coming into the world.
She always wondered what it felt like to have a mother and was scared to become a mother herself at first but now felt nothing but joy and happiness.
Her children and dragons were her family, along with her niece Elaena and her child if only she could find them and bring them together as one.
Suddenly, she was cut out of her thoughts when her tent flapped open. Daenerys turned around and saw Ser Barristean enter her tent.
" Your grace, " Ser Barristean said bowing. " I am sorry to disturb you, but a letter has arrived for you . He handed her the letter
" From who " Daenerys asked, staring at the letter in her hand not noticing the seal.
" It doesn't say " Ser Barristean repiled.
Daenerys opened the seal open and unwrapped the paper, beginning to read......
Dear, Aunt
I apologize for not keeping contact with you, these last few months being crazy. I am safe and well, I have recently given birth to triplets, two boys and a girl, they're healthy and well.
My first born I have named Lucaelon Eddard Stark Targaryen, my second born Naelasella Joanna Stark Targaryen and finally my third born Jacerion Brandon Stark Targaryen.
I am currently sailing to New Ghis to free the trapped people there and hopefully gain an army and fleet.
I pray that you and your children are well and safe, I hope we could all meet one day when it's safe and everything has calmed down. One day I hope we could all be together and ride our dragons side by side.
Be careful keep your guard up at all times, be aware of those around you they not be what they seem to be
Your Niece
Elaena Stark Targaryen of House Stark and Targaryen
" Elaena is okay, " Daenerys smiled, glancing up at Ser Barristan. " She gave birth to triplets and is in New Ghis."
" Oh thank the gods " Ser Barristean said in relief. " I was afraid she was taken back by the Lannisters.
" I don't understand why she was married off to the king slayer, " Daenerys said. "Why would Ned Stark marry her off to a man like that?
" He didn't have a choice " Ser Barristean answered." King Robert ordered him and Lord Tywin was set on the match.
" You mean the usurper, " Daenerys hissed.
" My apologies, your grace " Ser Barristan said. " You know your sister Shaena was almost married off to Ser Jaime, your father almost agreed to it but Ser Jaime refused and joined the king's guard a few weeks after that.
" Really, " Daenerys said, supruised.
" Yes, " Ser Barristan repiled. " When Ser Jaime was a child he had actually had a crush on your sister and wanted to marry her but Shaena thought of him as a friend. " Your sister's heart belonged to Brandon Stark alone.
" Jorah told me stories about how they ruled the north and Dragonstone together. " Daenerys said sadly. " If only my brother never kidnapped Lyanna Stark, perhaps they could still be alive today."
" Your brother Rhaegar never kidnapped Lady Lyanna " Ser Barristean responded. " He's the type of man to force a woman to go with him. " Rhaegar loved his lady Lyanna very much.
" Are you saying the rebellion was a lie? " Daenerys said.
" All the stories you've heard about your brother are false " Ser Barristean said. " Rhaegar and Lyanna ran away with each other. " Rhaegar annulled his marriage to Elia and married Lyanna and later Lyanna died giving birth to a stillborn child.
Daenerys sat there frozen, unsure what to say and almost wanted to curse out her brother for being so stupid to run away with a engaged woman while he was married and had children that needed him. Instead, her brother left them behind in King's Landing with her father and in a warzone.
She couldn't help but feel anger by her brother and everything she had thought of him suddenly turned into disgust. Viserys had described their brother Rhaegar as a good man, a warrior but that was false he was not what people thought him to be.
" Poor Elia, Rhaenys and Aegon " Daenerys thought, thinking how much they had to suffer due to her brother's action.
" As you can see, your brother was no rapist, " Ser Barristean said. " He was a good man, he would have made a fine king.
" I should've been there at the trident with him to protect him but I wasn't. " I let him and your sister Shaena down, I failed them but I won't fail you or Elaena.
" He wasn't a good man, " Daenerys said. " No good man would leave his wife and infant children behind for another woman and leave them in a war zone.
" Rhaegar was selfish and only thought about himself. " He cost our family everything and lives were lost because of him and Lady Lyanna's actions.
" Your brother may have not been wise but he was not selfish " Ser Barristean defended. " He loved his family, his children.
" Love them, " Daenerys scoffed. " He left them behind him, including his sick wife. " My sister is dead, my mother, Elia, Rhaenys and Ageon are gone."
" Rhaegar wasn't responsible for their deaths " Ser Barristean said.
" But, he holds some fault for their deaths including all the falling soldiers that died fighting for him."
"I am sorry, your grace " Ser Barristean signed. " I didn't mean to make you upset.
" You didn't, " Daenerys repiled. " You told me the truth and helped me see things clearer. " My brother may have been the dragon prince but he wasn't the last dragon.
" Me and Elaena are including our children and we won't make the same mistakes as my brother did.
" I have faith in you two " Ser Barristean smiled. " You two will be great queens one day."
" Yes, " Daenerys smiled. " Though, we haven't gotten to the endgame. " I heard Robb Stark was named king in the north."
" Yes, he was, " Ser Barristean responded.
" But, he isn't the heir to the north, " Daenerys defended. " Elaena is, he's a usurputer.
" In Westeros, women can't inherit any land without a husband. Ser Barristean explained.
" She is an ice dragon, " Daenerys exclaimed. " She is of ice and fire, she doesn't need a man to rule by her side. " Elaena is capable of ruling the north by herself and would make a great queen.
" You would let the north be independent when you take the iron throne " Ser Barristean questioned.
" Yes, " Daenerys repiled. " Only if Elaena is ruling it."
" Well, " Ser Barristean said. " It won't be easy for Elaena to take the north back seeing as her cousin Robb is considered the heir.
" So many Targaryen women's rights have been usurped by Targaryen men " Daenery said. " Who says women can't rule? " Our ancestor Rhaenyra Targaryen did for a while before her brother Aegon fed her to her dragon Sunfyre. " People called her a usurper for trying to steal her brother's throne but she was named heir by her father King Viserys and the firstborn.
" People tend to make stories as they see it, " Ser Barristean explained. " No one saw Rhanerya or Aegon Targaryen as the rightful heir, they weren't remembered well in history.
" Both were horrible claims to the throne and tyrants. " They brought nothing but destruction and chaos to the seven kingdoms.
" Yes, they may not have been great people " Daenerys signed. " But at least Rhaenyra fought for what was hers and didn't give up, she may have lost the dance of dragons but in the end she won for her son named king.
" Elaena is the only child of Brandon Stark who was the firstborn son of Rickard Stark, the north belonged to her just like the six kingdoms belong to me. " I'm not going to give up fighting for what was taken from me, taken from my family due to my brother's action and neither should Elaena let her cousin take her birthright away from her.
" I will take back what is mine with fire and blood " Daenerys states. " I will restore glory back to House Targaryen and nothing or nobody will stop me.
She would break the wheel, free the slaves and restore a new order. After that, she would sail to Westeros and take the iron throne back, all she hoped was for Elaena and her to meet one day and combine forces together.
With their dragons and army combined, they could capture the seven kingdoms within a year but first they would have to wait for their dragons to grow and their armies to spread out more.
