✦✧ PART TWO ✧✦
⤷ FOURTEEN; the short reunion ⤶
DAY CAME JUST AS FAST AS IT FELL with the drained dragons resting peacefully just a short land away from kingslanding. Sighing in content as she woke to the sound of waves crashing against the shore.
With the sun shining brighting down on the pair, Daenys stood stretching making Karnax groan in annoyance.
"Well today we reunite with the little lords of Westeros, Karnax." whispered daenys as she turned to face him. He stood at his full height, stretching his wings waiting for his princess. Walking to him with a small tired smile before kissing his chin.
"Shall we go?" she said before heaving herself up the large ladder to his saddle. "Sōvēs Karnax."
As the two made their short journey back to kingslanding, her sister, Rhaenyra was making her bloody way back to the hunting party with her utmost loyal knight, Ser Cristin Cole. The wild boar she had partially killed being dragged behind them.
"Princess." Rhaenyra looked over at the her sworn sword "The King will not be happy with either of us." he stated the obvious making her roll her beautiful eyes.
"When is he ever happy with me." Rhaenyra chuckles at the sheer situation as she continued looking forward "If only Dany was here with me. Everything would be..."
"Perfect?" Cristin questioned only for her to shake her head. "No... well yes but it would be easier. Comfortable."
"How so?" He looked at her with his brows raised "I wouldn't be so alone, she would protect me as she always has. I would have someone to trust."
"I protect you princess. Tis my duty." Cristin wholeheartedly said with a small barely visible smile.
"Yes but Dany has always protected my heart and mind. With her here I would feel content." I would have another dragon by my side. "Without her here I feel as If I am incomplete."
"The princess does seem to hold that quality. To calm a person so easily." Rhaenyra stares at him with wonder. "I never asked but how did you meet my sister? She never told me."
"It was just after the dornish incursion, an enemy hidden in the shadows struck me with an arrow right near my heart." He slid his armour slightly to show the scar, his tone somber. As though it still pained him so many moons later "I thought the stranger would take me when an angel appeared, whispering sweet words to me."
"She healed me that day and I would be forever grateful to her." Ser Cristin spoke with a fond smile thinking of her lilac eyes. "Once I was healed she asked for my name, I said Cristin Cole."
