Alexandra had another reason she wished to come to Caletara. After entertaining her people who came into the palace offering their queen and her consorts gifts and praise and wishes of good health for their pregnancy, she finally managed to get out of her stuffy formal clothes and wore one of her toga's it was the only dress anyone would ever see her wear.
She walked her guests through the city showing them the bustling market place. Of course the city and market was crawling with woman and not a child or man in sight but she knew that would change soon. After having her talk with Caletara herself.
"There's so many women" she chuckled as Arya took in the sights, Sansa had long lost a battle by looking through the clothing and materials provided Arya though had a different goal. Jon was stiff beside them eyes taking in everything but she could see his surprise. The air was clean, human waste didn't permeate though the city, thanks to the system she put in place now only if she could start with kings landing. She took Arya over to the smithing district.
"This is where my weapons and armor comes from, not Escanor or wraiths but the rest; Drogon and Rhaegals armor was made here as well." She said leading the girl through the large building. The closer the got to where the smithing actually happened the louder and warmer it got.
"Joanna" she called the woman looked up cleaning her hands and bowed
"Your grace?"
Alexandra smiled "you received my letter?" The woman nodded
"And?"
Joanne shuffled "I'm conflicted your grace, he's a wonderful man. But my place is here.." she pointed Alex hummed understandably.
"Yes, but did you not teach Isabelle everything you know?"
Joanne nodded "I have .."
"Then if it's something you wish for I won't stop you in fact I've given my blessing you're free to accept his marriage proposal but if I need of you he's agreed to let you come to me.." she offered, the visible relief was clear and Alex knew the woman made her decision
"I'll send a raven telling him of my decision your grace"
Alex nodded motioning to Arya " now this one over here has just been knighted .. have we any armor that would suit her?"
Joanne smiled and motioned them to follow. Alex nudged Arya forward.
"Go , choose what ever you wish for — a guard will be outside and escort you back to the palace when you're ready."
"But what about payment?"
"It's on me, a congratulatory gift of sorts" she said and left before the girl could reply. She nodded to Roberta who took up her sentry.
"Jon.." she said as the man looked at her "what can I help you with?"
The man hesitated before shaking his head "nothing your grace" Alexandra nodded and left the man to his own devices. Her guards would ensure that they were taken care of . She smiled when pantheon sidled up beside her .
"You're big enough to carry me now, so will you take me to the mirror cave bud?" There was a grunt and she took that as his approval. She ignored her guards and straddled the large beast
"Go buddy" she whispered and he shot off cutting through the busy streets and off into the forest .. he ran for a half hour — she wanted to walk the rest of the way but he proved that he wasn't just bigger but had the stamina to match. He must've really wanted to join her in war she mused her lazy snake on the other hand was off laying eggs according to Ava and she really hoped it wasn't some strange panther/snake hybrid . But she hoped she could bring the hatchlings back to the capital.. all of them as a gifts to her children.
