Rhaenyra ran through the halls of the castle looking for Anna needing to speak with her after her father told her she will be crowned heir this week
"Anna" Rhaenyra yelled running into her chambers seeing the girl who is like a second mother sewing something
"Rhaenyra my dear is everything alright" Anna asked setting her needle and string down looking to Rhaenyra confused on why she barged into her chambers so quickly shouting her name
"um yes no I mean I may speak with you" she asked stuttering as she bit her lip and racked on her feet
"of course come sit little dragon" Anna said to her covering what she was sewing with a throw blanket
"now what do you wish to talk about my dragon" she asked after Rhaenyra sat down placing a pillow on her lap
"I know of the conversation you had with my father about me being his heir" she started nervously
"I meant every word I said to the king" Anna said softly "you did you didn't just say what you thought the king wanted to hear" Rhaenyra asked nerves filling her stomach
"I will never say something that i dont believe unless a sword is at my throat unless I am going to die fighting for what I believe" Anna said making her giggle
"you think I will do well as queen" she asked the older girl who smiled and nodded
"yes I did Rhaenyra I truly think you will do great as Queen but you must understand you will be the first women to sit on the Iron throne and with that a lot of pressure will come many people will want to see you fail and you can not give them what they want, the whole realm will be looking at your every move you can not make a mistake you can not act out you cant make irresponsible decisions you must show them that you can and will be a good queen they will try to have you disinherited at every chance they get" Anna spoke softly but sternly
"you will be there the entire time right lead me, guide me I do not think I can do this with out you Anna" Rhaenyra said needing the reassurance
"Rhaenyra I will be by your side the entire time I will protect you with my life I will do everything in my power to make sure you both happy and content I will help you and guide you through your journey as best as I can"
Rhaenyra tackled her into a hug making them fall off the couch laughing "ok well I know a certain ceremony is this week I have been working on something after the king and I spoke" Anna said getting up pulling her up to stand
"your father and I spoke about it when the heir for the king is crowned they where a cloak representing all of the houses in the realm that one day they will rule over but the normal cloak is meant traditionally for a man very big and manly so he and I spoke and I made one for you" Anna explained to the young girl who watched curiously
Anna walked over to where she was sewing when Rhaenyra came into her chambers pulling the cloak she had just finished handing it to Rhaenyra who gasped in awe at the cloak which was a cream white with the Targaryen dragon embroidered in the middle and every house in the realm sigils around smaller but still there Rhaenyra traced the sigils softly with her finger sniffling as she tried not to cry
it was beautiful and clearly took a long time to make each stitch was perfect it showed elegance but pride
"have I upset you little bug do not feel like you have wear it I won't be hurt if you don't want to wear it" Anna started to say when she saw the tears in her eyes
"no I will wear it thank you Anna thank you so much I love it. it is so beautiful" Rhaenyra cut her off feeling really emotional
