Burn Together ❖ Daemon Targaryen

Chapter 20

" ... After years of whispers about her sons Jacaerys, Lucerys and now Joffrey's brown hair and their resemblance to Ser Harwin Strong, Rhaenyra could not take anymore of the accusations of adultery and her sons being bastards. Queen Alicent perpetrated the rumours most of all, accusing Rhaenyra of lying to everyone including her husband Prince Laenor, despite her children's resemblance to their aunt Rhaenys. Meanwhile Alicent's children, Princes Aegon and Aemond and Princess Heleana, all carried the silver Targaryen hair, despite her red hair. Then, Ser Harwin Strong and Lord Strong were killed in a fire at their home and Princess Rhaenyra fled King's Landing in a heartbroken rage, straight to her sister ... "

" ... The lives of Prince Daemon and Princess Rhaellanne had been nothing short of perfect for nine years. They had turned Dragonstone from an empty, cold castle into a stronghold of the Targaryen family, with their eight dragons and four children. Their son Baelor had been followed by a daughter Lyanna, and then a set of twins Eleana and Vaelon. What had begun with them fleeing King's Landing had turned into them creating a home where they were safe and loved, and most of all feared. Many Gold Cloaks and knights had followed them in those years, creating their own sworn army of men, led by Caraxes and Cannibal ... "

The past 9 years had been nothing short of bliss for Daemon and Rhaellanne and their family on Dragonstone. Their son Baelor had been joined by a younger sister, Lyanna, when he was one and then came a set of twins 3 years ago, Eleana and Vaelon. The family of six  were happy together, and their dragons were thriving too

Cannibal and Silverwing had appeared to have mated and Silverwing produced a large group of eggs, and Dreamfyre also produced some that she seemed to have been carrying for a while. Dragons were the focal point of the family, and they spent all of their efforts into making their lives good.

Two of those eggs had been put in the cribs of Eleana and Vaelon when they were born, and Eleana's had hatched, but the baby dragon was being cared for in the dragon pit and was still unnamed. Rhaellanne had denied the idea of the older dragons living in the dragon pit and allowed them to roam freely, and her role as dragon ruler had well and truly been fulfilled. 

Baelor had claimed Silverwing when he was only seven, and Lyanna was now riding one of Cannibal and Silverwing's babies, who she named Dracul. What became a large source of amusement for them though was the fact that both of their dragons were bigger than Caraxes, which meant Daemon now had the smallest dragon of his family

It had surprised everyone how quick Dracul had grown, but he was the offspring of the Cannibal after all, which was clear by his night-black scales.

Now that those two had claimed their dragons, the four of them were often found flying around Blackwater Bay, and today was no exception. Cannibal was by far the largest and most powerful out of them and could easily beat any of them in a race, and Rhaellanne enjoyed knowing that

Dracul and Silverwing twirled around Caraxes, and Daemon grinned as his children called him slow, and to shut them up, he suddenly dived downwards and then pulled straight back up and shot into the air, blowing past Cannibal

Rhaellanne laughed as her husband flew above her, and he then steered Caraxes down until they were flying side-by-side

"īlva riñar pendagon iksan paez [Our children think I'm slow]" he called over

"Qilōni gaomagon ao pendagon ivestretan zirȳ naejot ivestragon bona? [who do you think told them to say that?]" grinned Rhaellanne

Daemon scoffed and placed his hand on his heart in mock hurt. "Nāpāstre [traitor]"
