"My mother cares for all her children, and the ones not by blood," •
"I have not heard from your brother, and I worry about his being," Elaina said, staring at her remaining children left in her home.
Helaena fidgeted at her words, as flashes of her dream came to mind. Aegon shook his head, trying to sort through his mind if Daeron had said anything about where he was or what he was doing.
Aemond sat still, waiting for his mother to continue as she paced in front of them.
"I must travel to Winterfell, and I need you three here while I see to it that your brother is safe. I ask that--"
"No, you should stay here, Mother. It wouldn't be safe for you, please let either me or Aemond fly there," Aegon said, disagreeing with his mother.
"It's true, I think it's best you stay here with me and the children. I'm sure Daeron is fine, Mother," Helaena said softly, trying to reassure her mother.
"We'll both go looking for him, I'm sure that's faster than just one of us going," Aemond said, standing up from his spot.
"We'll have him right back here before you know it, just relax and be the true Queen that you are," Aegon said, standing up as well to hug his worried mother.
Helaena joined in, feeling safe and relieved to have her family with her. Regardless of her missing brother, she hoped that one day all of this mess would end.
"I will head to Winterfell, I'll make sure to send a raven to Lord Stark before leaving," Aegon stated, nodding his head at his mother before leaving.
"As for me, I will see to it to the Stormlands, and speak with the Baratheons in case they see Daeron's dragon flying about," Aemond said before kissing Elaina and Helaena's cheeks goodbye.
Elaina sighed but nodded watching as the doors closed behind her son, before turning to her daughter and bringing her into a warm embrace.
"Are you alright, my sweet?" Elaina asked, seeing the discomfort on Helaena's face.
"I'm not sure what is right anymore... I fear that the dead is near, and we have no way to escape it," Helaena answered, looking into Elaina's eyes with pure terror as she remembered her dream.
Elaina stared worriedly at her daughter, seeing how distraught she was. The mother quickly brought her child into a warm embrace in hopes to relieve her senses.
Helaena sniffled slightly into the warmth, wanting nothing more than to end all the chaos happening around them.
"I fear the beginning is only just about to happen. My dreams show me bloodshed. I fear that Rhaenyra will not show mercy to us all," Helaena revealed, her voice cracking at the end as she imagines her half sister killing her and her family.
