The entire court of Dragonstone was getting ready to travel to the mainland, where the dragon queen's armies were to aid the riverlands fighting the Lannister blockade and get revenge for the victims of the red wedding.

The only people staying behind would be the ladies Olenna and Margaery Tyrell, some ladies and maidens from the Houses Velaryon and Bar Emmon, Varys, Missandei, Rickon and Tyrion, who would act in the queen's stead. Along with the dothraki and unsullied, who were under the orders of Missandei and the Lannister dwarf.

As for the Dragons the Stormborn and Dragonheart Targaryens had agreed that they should at least take two of each. So Aeson, viserion, Ancalagon and Drogon would go along with their mothers, leaving rhaegal, lisyon and Aragorn to defend the island. As Lisyon already obeyed the simple orders of Dracarys and sovës that came from the young boy who they knew as a "little brother" of their mothers. Not to mention that Dragons were in fact highly intelligent creatures and recognized friend from foe.

"Im not sure how i feel about leaving Rickon behind. We just got him back." Robb commented as he and Jon got ready by sharpening they swords. And placing their armours with the help of young Rickon, and Shaggydog, who wanted to spend some more time with his brothers before they left.

But Jon was quick to dismiss his brother's worries. "He wont be alone, besides according to Daenerys there is no foresight of an upcoming attack. He will most likely just continue with his studies and watch over the dragon eggs."

"Hey. Rhae also said i was in charge of cheking in on Lisyon. She allows me to pet her and i already know the commands for her to breath fire and to fly. " the young boy said proudly while petting his direwolf that he chose to ride almost everywhere.

The response made both Stark men laugh loudly but Robb still cautioned Rickon with the she-dragon as they were only, at least he believed, trully bonded to Targaryens.

Then Robb started thinking of the comment on the eggs that could only be about the two dragons in the hatchery, that Rhae had told him about made Robb think. If Daenerys was telling Jon about the eggs was because she trusted him and that the two were in fact getting along, like Ser Davos had jested on about. "Oh the khaleesi told you about the dragon eggs, has she? What else have the two of you talked about during your stroles? Wheather your children will have black or white hair? Dark or purple eyes?" Robb jested like the good old days when the two were just lads in Winterfell.

This joke caused Jon's cheeks to go full on red. Yes he felt attracted to the younger Targaryen, she was kind, fun and full of wisdom. But did not think she would ever give a bastard like him a chance to win her heart.

"Ahh funny. But im not the one who is married now. To a queen nonetheless. How does it feel? After everything i mean." The bastard wolf asked refering to Robb's first marriage.

This question made royal consort stop and think for a bit.
It had already been a week since the wedding, and so far things were going well, very well even. They shared the same bed everynight. Discussed their interests, learned knew things about one another. She even went as far as give him a place in her small council. It was not an official one or "made up" like the one she had created for lord Tarly it was a place of honor. Where Robb would be included in battle plans, and future strategies. She wanted him, in her own words, to feel included and know he had an opinion on the matters.
In the end Ser Davos was right. It was not love not even close. But it was companionship and attraction. And for now it was enough. Hells if things kept going as they were in their chamber soon he might hear the news that he will be a father.

--------------------------------------------------------------
While Robb and Jon finnished getting ready, Rhaenya and Daenerys were also getting with the help of Missandei and even Melissandre, as even though the red woman still stayed clear from the path of the Starks, she felt the need to warn the two Targaryens that hard time were coming and they would lose people they loved in their upcoming battles.
