Newborn cries fill the room and the father bursts into tears of relief and joy. He turns his glossy eyes to his wife and in a voice that's almost broken he tells her they have a beautiful daughter. Through her exhaustion she smiles, and she lets her eyes leave his face to take in the baby that is being brought to like on her bare skin. In that moment she begins to cry the sweetest tears she's ever known, all the pain of moments before melting away. She's only minutes old and her tiny girl begins to root, mouth wide, her instincts strong.

Princess Rhaenyra had a tough labor; although she had thought her unborn child was a male, she had never thought a daughter would be tougher than it already once was. Her husband, Laenor Velaryon smiled. "She has your nose," Laenor commented on the babe. Rhaenyra chuckled, as she held the babe over to Laenor.
"What should we name her?" Laenor asked Rhaenyra, and she had one name on her name. Visenya. But, she doesn't look like a Visenya nor a Rhaenys. "Alyna. Valeria will be her middle name, coming from Valyria."
"Alyna Valeria Velaryon. That suits her," Laenor smiled, and the door opened to show Viserys I and his wife, Alicent Targaryen. "King Viserys, Queen Alicent." Laenor bowed, in respect to the reigning monarchs. Laenor was actually scared of Queen Alicent, for who knows what? King Viserys walked to the panting Rhaenyra while Alicent walked to Laenor carrying the babe.
"She has Rhaenrya's nose, does she not?" Alicent smiled sweetly at the crying babe. "She does. She certainly does.."
"Congratulations, my daughter; I hope the labor was pleasant," Viserys I exclaimed to his daughter, delighted that he now had a grandchild. "I believe I called the midwife a cunt," Rhaenyra chuckled. "Ah," Viserys responded, chuckling.
"What will you call the babe, stepdaughter?" Alicent enquired of her stepdaughter. Laenor and Rhaenyra sat in silence, and Laenor shuddered. "Alyna... We'd nickname her Aly for short," he stated. Alicent nodded and turned to look at the babe. "She possesses your eyes and nose Rhaenyra, and she looks almost exactly like you."
Alyna was just a few minutes old, and crying. She was plump, healthy, and a wee gentle. She definitely had her mother's nose and eyes, maybe she'll have her father's hair in the future. "You know, Rhaenyra..."
