three dragons- hotd

Second of His Name

I'm afraid my visions have become somewhat of a reality. Three years ago my sister married the king and they had a son named Aegon second of his name. She is heavily with child at moment and we have not spoken much since her wedding to the king. I find it cruel for her to have done this to Rhaenyra and with that I have turned my back on my blood. But Targaryens are forged from fire and it runs through our veins. I know who the rightful hair is and that is Princess Rhaenyra of House Targaryen.

My husband has been fighting in the war at Stepstones for these three years. He fights against the Triarchy and the war is still preceding to fall upon the lands. His come to see me in secret throughout these three years. We have grown, at first we just spoke and now we have grown close and I've come to love him. We consummated our marriage and I have not bleed for three moons almost four now. I know i'm with child. I have not seen Daemon since, and I have not written to him. I don't wish it to be true. I'm in fear because no one knows that he's been seeing me I fear since I have already begun to show. I've done my best to hide it but I can't for much longer and my child will be called a bastard and I whore.

I sigh rolling my eyes as everyone fawns over Aegon, I look at my nephew and Alicent looks back at me. I growl it's the boys second name day, today but yet luckily Rhaenyra is still hair. My sister rubs her pregnant belly walking over to me. She touches my arm and I slip away. "My sister," She whispers but I quickly storm off to Rhaenyra. In which is the only one who knows of Daemon's visits. "It's absurd!" I declare approaching Rhaenyra as Samwell sings constantly.

"The years are long and nothing is changing as my sister is strutting around with Aegon and her pregnancy. She's acting as if she didn't betray you and didn't destroy everything. It's ridiculous." I say angrily looking down at Nyra as she reads under the tree unfazed. "Calm your self Naya my uncle will end the war, and my father will keep his head. I am still hair aren't I?" She says not looking up, "Alicent is doing nothing but spoiling things. She's spoiling it all." I grumble pacing back and forth nervously. I look at Alicent as she approaches, she followed me, great.

Nyra pays her no attention and she demands that Samwell keep singing. I look away from my sister kicking Nyra's leg a bit to get her attention. "The queen has arrived." I whisper sarcastically and Nyra looks back down. Alicent and Rhaenyra argue back and forth sending demands to Samwell and I sigh as Rhaenyra puts her book down standing angrily. She grabs my arm taking me and we storm past my sister. I don't look back I am loyal to the Princess and my sister is no queen, she is a liar. And our father is vermin.

I sit in the carriage next to Nyra as we rid to the hunt, I pick at my nails as Aegon gurgles. Nyra squeezes me as the king speaks of her future. "It's not so bad the days are long, but Aegon came quickly and without a fuss." Alicent says with a smile and Nyra says nothing, "I hope to see that day come as well Neryssa with my brother." The king says and I smile awkwardly looking down at my stomach. My heart skips a beat and I look up to see Alicent staring right at me. We step out to cheers and excitement from the crowd. I follow Nyra as everyone cheers for Aegon. Rhaenyra and I ease drop on the ladies in the noble tent and they call us out.

"What about you Lady Neryssa your husband is the great mind of this war is he not?" Lady Ceira asks me and I laugh awkwardly, "Well my husband has been gone for quite sometime has he not?" I ask and she moves on asking Rhaenyra about her over throw of his title. "Your husband, and your uncle, princesses has thrown us into this war with the Sea Snake." Lady Joselyn states and Rhaenyra snaps back. "How have you served the realm of late. Lady Redwyne, by eating cake?" Nyra asks and I laugh slightly finding her expression priceless. I follow Nyra quickly and out of the tent.

Jason Lannister approaches us and I step away giving them space. Nyra walks off and I follow after her as she storms to the king. I sigh Nyra is being given marriage proposals and the king yells at her. The tent goes quiet and Nyra storms off, I follow after her again. "Nyra wait!" I yell after her as she jumps on a horse riding off, Sr Criston grabs his horse. "Do not worry princess I'll get her." He says and gallops after her and I sigh walking back to the tent. I am met with Alicent right in my face and she pulls me close. "Are you with child?" She asks me and I hold my breath looking up at her. I pull away, "Your Grace." I grumble walking past her quickly and away from her questions.

The next morn I finally see Rhaenyra's face returning, it's covered in blood. I hurry to her and walk beside her. "What happened?" I ask and she smiles, "The stag he came to me." She whispers. We hurry to return to kings landing and Nyra seems differed, in good way, the gods have blessed her and shown her the truth. She's seen a truth of such. I hear whispers my husband and Corlys are losing the war and the king is avoiding interference.

I've written a scroll to Daemon telling him of my condition. I got a soldier to give it to him along with a letter from the king. I hope telling him of such will keep him form getting himself killed. But alas my husband is a man of his own free will. He does what he wishes and no one can truly stop him from doing what he wants and what he thinks is good. But I know he will officially return to king's landing, I hope as hero. Not as dead.
