STEPSTONES

On the beach of Bloodstone, as Drahar amuses himself by executing prisoners while his men loot the wreckage of a Velaryon ship, Daemon descends atop Caraxes, the dragon's fire incinerating many of the Triarchy's soldiers on the beach

Alon rides in on his horse swinging his sword slicing and dicing at soldiers along the way. The remaining solders retreats towards the caves.

Daemon: Where are you?

Alon: Come out and face us, you coward!

Drahar is standing at the entrance of the cave as Caraxes blows out dragon's fire over the beach.

Daemon: Come out, Drahar!

Alon: Where are you? I'm gonna shove your fucking crabs up your ass!

Volleys of arrows from Triarchy archers on the cliffs overlooking the beach force Daemon and Caraxes to pick up Alon and his horse and flies away

Alon: DON'T DROP ME!!

Daemon: I would never! Don't look down!

Alon: SEVEN HELLS!! COULD'VE TOLD ME THAT SOONER, YOU CUNT!!

Daemon: LOVE YOU TOO!!

CROWNLANDS

Darrin and Elijah are standing on the side of the dining hall watching people fawn over Prince Aegon who's being held by a handmaiden. Alicent is pregnant with their second child

Elijah: He has a kingly presence already.

Kiera and Clara are on the other side of the room, Kiera has Arlen in her arms while Clara tickles his face smiling.

Darrin: He may but Rhaneyra is Viserys's heir

Elijah looks over seeing Otto and Tyland Hightower talking heatedly.

Elijah: I see the Hightowers are once again engaged in a heated discussion.

Darrin: This morning Aegon insisted on eating porridge with his hands. I sweat steam came out of Otto's ears

Elijah: He is two years. A child. I've seen Arlen do worse. What does he expect from a child?

Darrin: Aye.

Elijah: This is a party assembled in his honor.

Darrin: It is Aegon's second name day. I fear Otto will use this as a way to try convince Viserys to name him his heir.

Elijah: You really think he would stoop so low?

Darrin: Ser Otto only cares about himself and giving himself more power. If his blood sits on the Iron Throne, he would have unlimitless power.

Elijah: It lies with you to prevent that from happening

Darrin: I am trying but Otto's power grows every day. 

Tyland Lannister walks into the room

Tyland: Your Grace.......I bring urgent news from the Stepstones

Clara, Kiera, Elijah, and Darrin slowly approaches wanting to hear more.

Tyland: The Crabfeeder has dug in for siege on Bloodstone while his men sabotage our fleet under the cover of darkness.
