( We are now in 125 AC, Aegon is 15, Helaena is 13, Aemond is 11, Aemma is 9, Jace is 8 and Luke is 6)
Cries of pain resounded against the walls of the red keep announcing the imminent birth of the baby."I'm sure it's a boy !" Jacaerys said leaning towards the dragon's eggs in front of them. "I hope for a sister, I so tired of you" Aemma, the eldest sighed before touching the burning scales of the the eggs with her fingertips.
Syrax had brought forth a clutch of egg not long before Rhaenyra started her labour and the children were happy to help choose an egg for their new sibling.
"Bisy." (this one) Finally chose Aemma taking the egg in her bare hands to observe it from every angle. "Careful Aemma !" Lucerys shouted, surprised not to see his sister in pain while touching the burning egg.
"Bisy iā drēje zaldrīzes iksis !" The dragon keeper laughed before taking the egg and putting it in a warm caldron.
The young princess turned her face towards the translator, forced to admit that her capacities in high Valyrian didn't help her understanding this sentence.
" He said, that you are a real dragon princess"Proud, she gave a mocking look at her brothers when Ser Harwin arrived in the dragon pit announcing the good news. " It's a boy !" Both boys started to jump in joy and Aemma asked him again. "And mother, is she alright?"
The young princess was worried about her mother who had been in pain the whole night.
"Everyone's alright ! Your mother wants to see you, let's go."
The three children ran into their carriage impatient to see their mother and new brother.
"Let me through ! No ! Luke !"
Jace shouted pushing his brother to be the first seeing their mother. "Carful my prince !" A maid spoke when Jace stumbled upon the stairs.Taking advantage of this moment of inattention the princess passed her brothers and arrived first in the room that housed Princess Rhaenyra and her last son, Joffrey.
She went to her mother who gave her a radiant smile and kissed her forehead. "How are you mother ?" Aemma asked while her brothers' attention was focused on their brother. "Much better." She responded " Can I hold him please ?" She asked again turning her gaze toward her father. "Of course, but be careful" Laenor said putting the child in his only true child's arms.
Lucerys complained about not having the right to hold Joffrey but Laenor quickly sent them back to the pit where Aegon and Aemond were.Aemma kissed her brother's head and gave him back to her mother before running to the queen's chambers to find her best friend, Helaena.
She didn't pay attention to ser
Ser Criston Cole who tried to announce her and ran through the door impatient to see her best friend. "Helaena !" Aemma shouted before sitting right next to her.
