⎯FIRE WILL REIGN
❝targaryens are made of fire❞
♈︎♈︎♈︎
House Targaryen had always had queer customs, Alicent Hightower had been taught this by her own father since she had ears to hear it. Her mother would remain quiet, it had not been her place to question the Valyrian Gods, the Seven knew what they were doing. King Jaehaerys had wed his own sister, against the Seven's wishes, as King Aenys first of his name had wed his eldest son and his eldest daughter as well. It had come in tradition from the time before they arrived in Westeros.
But when Alicent had wed King Viserys, and given him three children already, she never thought in her wildest dream, she would have to force the same traditions of House Targaryen on her own children. Alicent had been the Queen, and she had done her duty well, even when her father had been dismissed as Hand of the King, she had given birth to a second son not six moons later. And soon after the Princess gave birth to her own son.
However, the Queen's son, Prince Aemond, had looked much like his father, the purple eyes and silver hair of House Targaryen were blinding in all the Queen's children, but the Princess gave birth to a son, who looked like neither parent. Dark brown curled hair, and dark brown eyes to match as people wondered softly where the boy had gotten it from.
Some say the Queen had made sure she was with child again, to show the blood of House Targaryen in her children afer Prince Aemond's egg did not hatch in the cradle while the Princess' son did. Prince Jacaerys Velaryon would bond with the green ill-tempered beast that hatched in his cradle, and the Queen had not stood for it. Within a year the Queen announced she had been with child again, at the same time as the Princess. This caused another rivallry between the Queen and Princess, especially when the Princess announced ser Harwin Strong her new sworn protector.
Alicent gave birth first, and she gave birth to twins. An another son who was named Daeron, and a second daughter, who had been named Drakarya for the Valyrian word Dracarys. Daeron and Drakarya, the Green Twins as Princess Rhaenyra would call them, had each received an egg in the cralde as demanded by the Queen. "My children are dragons, why should they not have eggs in their cradle" she had demanded before the Dragonkeepers hurried to place eggs from Dreamfyre in their cradle. Dreamfyre had recently been claimed by their elder sister Helaena, only a toddler herself, as two blue eggs had been given to them.
A week after the Princess would welcome Prince Lucerys Velaryon, and had quickly announced to the Realm how Lord Corlys would name Lucerys the Heir of Driftmark as Laenor's duty would be as Prince Consort. Prince Lucerys received a silver-white egg with soft pink details and had been praised by many.
All the eggs given had hatched, and the Crown would wait for them all to name their own dragons. Prince Daeron, when he was five had named his Tessarion and she would earn the name the Blue Queen, while Prince Lucerys had named his Arrax.
