"I know you are there. Come out." After putting Joffrey to sleep Rhaenyra left her quarters and made her way to a secluded corridor.
She knew she wasn't alone and who that person was. The walls had ears and she had once met the one behind all the secrets of King's Landing.

As if summoned by magic Talya, the queen's lady-in-waiting appeared at the end of the corridor.

"You must know by now that I'm going away. As well as most of the secrets of this court so listen carefully if you don't want your head on a pike," getting closer to the lady Rhaenyra she made sure her words were clear. " I want you to make sure that nothing happens to my siblings. Not a hair of their heads must be touched. If I sew a single scratch on them there won't be anyone to help you. Even white worm."

She could feel fear radiating from Talya as she nodded her head. She wasn't playing when it came to her family's safety. She couldn't get them away from this hell now but she would.

"I'm going to leave some of my most trustworthy men here to make sure of it. And I want you to inform me of everything that happens here." Taking a last step towards Talya she whispered the last threat. "And make sure your master doesn't find out about this conversation. Syrax is a picky eater but she wouldn't mind having you for supper"

With that she stepped back and went back to her quarters.

There she made sure one last time that all the children were sleeping peacefully before making her way to her own bed. There she let sleep take over her and dreamt about a fierce and handsome prince.

At the same time in a bedroom in the princes' quarters a little could be seen heating up and changing lightly of color.
Something was coming, maybe salvation, maybe destruction. No one knew. Not even the blind dragon who slept in the arms of her other half.
