lt is the year 130 AC, 154 years before the reign of the mad king and the birth of his daughter Daenerys Targaryen. Its been 13 years since you were Born to King Viserys Targaryen the peaceful and his wife Alicent hightower. You are Aemond Targaryens twin sister Laela Targaryen and have two more siblings, Prince Aegon Targaryen, 17 years of age and your younger Sister Helaena, 12 years of age.

You and Helaena both didnt get a Dragon egg at birth, due to the fact that your Mother didnt want the two of you to become Dragonriders. But at the age of 7 you claimed the Dragon Vermithor, the bronze fury. Your Father was extatic, one of the only times he even acknowledged you at all, but your Mother wasnt. But after not being able to stop you from riding your Dragon, she put up the rule that you were merely allowed to fly if you were accompanied by a guard or other Dragonrider. But following rules proved to not be your strenght.

Your older sister Rhaenyra has 3 Children at this Moment, your nephews Jacaerys Velaryon, also 13 years of age, Lucerys Velaryon, 10 years of age and Joffrey Velaryon, who was just Born a few Hours ago.

As of now, you just came back from the Dragon pit with your nephews Jace and Luke, after picking out an egg for your new Baby nephew Joffrey. After you picked the perfect egg you three run back to the castle, excitedly. In Rhaenyras Chambers, you are greated by Harwin Strong, who is waiting for Rhaenyra as well, and you show off the Dragon egg you picked out, and put it in the small heating box on the table. Just as you did that, Rhaenyra walks in the room, acompanied by her husband Laenor.

"Mother!" Jace says as you stand up and walk towards her smiling "Look!". He opens the box to reveal the egg to her as you three stand next to her proudly. "We Chose an egg for the Baby!".                     She smiles and says "That Looks like the perfect one.." as she sits down on the Sofa, still in pain from her labour. "we let Luke choose!", you say and he smiles up at you "Thank you Laela"                            You walk up to Rhaenyra and sit down to her feet and she reaches out for your Hands. "I do hope the labour wasnt too painful" you ask and she smiles at you warmly "It was managable.." and you smile back.  "Another Boy i heard?" you say and look in his direction "Can i say hello to my nephew?" "Of cause" she says and you jump up excitedly and go up to Harwin, who was allowed to take the Little baby from Laenor. You smile as he lowers the boy down to you and you carefully extent your Hand towards him. "What is his Name?" you ask and Laenor answers "Its Joffrey!". As your Hand lingers over his Little Body, he reaches out with his Hand and holds on tight to your finger as you laugh happily. "May i hold him Father?" Luke asks Laenor but he says no and commands you all to leave and give Rhaenyra some space. "Of to the Dragon pit you three! Come on! Before they send out a search Party.."

You three reluctantly go back to the Dragon pit, where you are greated by Aegon and Aemond. As you Gather around, waiting for Jace to begin his Dragon Training, Silverwing emerges from the depths of the pit. Jace did receive a Dragon egg in his cradle, but it wouldn't hatch, much like Aemonds egg. But in contrast to your brother, Jacaerys was able to bond with the Dragon Silverwing a few months ago. You were exstatic when he bonded with her, as your Dragon Vermithor and Silverwing were really close, ever since they were ridden by King Jaehaerys and Queen Alysanne. But Jace is yet to have ridden Silverwing again since he did the first time. His parents wanted him to undergo more Dragon Training to be able to fully command her and be save when he flies with her.

As they bring her out, Aegon yawns out of boredom, but you elbow him in the rips "Stop being an arse". He glares at you annoyed and roles his eyes, while Aemonds smirks at his Brothers childishness. Jace tries to command Silverwing, but it proves to be harder then he initially thought. As he tries to get Silverwing to Keep still and follow his command, you get next to him and encourage him "You got this Jace! Zaldrizo aoho syt aeksio sagon ao belviza darilaros nuhys.. Zijosy aot tetiri ozlettosy, toli rybagon zirylo vindilza."

You have been speaking Valyrian fluently from a very young age, as you were raised bilingual by your father and servants. You and Aemond are the only two siblings that got raised that way, your other brother and sister have had to learn this language when they were around 10. You and Aemond often use this language as you secret way to communicate, due to the other Kids only speaking it partly. Your two nephews are also not fluent in valyrian, but jace has been learning it for About 3 years, which is why he mostly understand it.

He nods at your words and then Looks up at the guard "Can i say it?" he asks and the guard nods. He smiles and excitedly steps Forward "Dracarys Silverwing!" he perclaimes and so she does.

You smile, but as you do, you notice Aemond next to you, Looking devistated and turning away. Since he has never gotten a Dragon, and resends his Cousin for claiming Silverwing, which is what he wanted to be able to do. You of cause also got lucky enough to be able to Claim a Dragon afterwards but he never did.. As you look at him now, you see what tool it taken on him..

After Jace's traing is complete for the day, Aegon tells Aemond that they have a surprise for him and you get agitated, as you already know what theyre About to do.. Little Luke runs down in to the pit to get the "Dragon" Aegon got for Aemond, as you all stand by. Your Nephew and brother are giggling as Lucerys walks back up again with a pig on a leash. It had White wings put up at each side of its Body and as Aemonds Expression grew darker, Aegon, Jace and Luke lauhed harder. "Behold, the pink dread!" they all said, as they laughed. "Oh fuck off you three.." you said and shoved Aegon on by his shoudler. You looked at Aemonds as Tears build up in his eyes.

"I'm really sorry.. I tried to stop them from doing this, but they wouldnt listen.." you said while Looking at your brother wiping his eyes "Its fine.. they're just jerks" he said, but you knew it hit him harder then he would admit. "How About.. we go for a flight..?" you say carefully "What? But youre not allowed to go on flights alone?" he said surpised. A smirk flashed over your lips as you said "Well im not alone, am i..?"                                                                                                                                                           You grab his Hand and start Walking deeper into the pits..
