Johanna smiles at the crown in her hands. Daemon had gone at the break of dawn not wanting to risk being caught. They had spent the whole night talking and laughing with each other. He had even met his youngest children Aemond and Rhaena for the first time that night as well.

There had been a lot of tears on both sides when they had first met each other. Johanna wished a painter had been there to capture the image of Daemon hugging his children that he had never met before and where now 14 years old.


Now she stood before her mirror in her red gold lined dress with the Targaryen crown in her hands. She dearly wished to wear it that day but she was scared of Robert's reaction and what he would do to her.

Turning around she smiles at Lady Tyrin who walks into the chamber with Johanna's red blanket like coat over her shoulder. Lady Tyrin could not understand how her lady the Queen had so much money but would never spend it unless she had to. She would spend small fortunes on her children but barely anything on herself.

"Thank you," Johanna smiles to Lady Tyrin who smiles back as she puts the coat around the Queen's shoulders before freezing slightly when she sees the crown in Johanna's hands.

"Was he here?" Lady Tyrin whispers and they both know who they were talking about, a smile breaks over the Lady Arryn's face when Johanna nods. They smile at each other through the mirror as Lady Tyrin rests her hands on the Queen's shoulders one of which the Queen covers with her own as she looks down at the crown in her hands.

"Wear it." the Lady Arryn tells the Queen who looks up at her in surprise "Show them you are not afraid anymore. You are a Targaryen though you carry the Lannister name, but they have betrayed you too many times to be called family. You are a Dragon, not a Lion. You are unable to burn."

Johanna chuckles as Lady Tyrin takes the crown from Johanna's hands and gently places it onto the Queen's head before resting her chin onto her shoulder as she puts her hands onto her upper arms which the Queen holds onto as they gaze into the mirror together.

The Lady Arryn was dressed in her house colours but in a deep yet lighter navy which blended in with the red of the Queen's own gown. They both had gold lining the sleeves, neckline and hem of their dresses.

"You are not a Lannister Queen," Lady Tyrin whispers to the Queen who continues to watch her in the mirror as the Lady whispers sweet words into her ears "You are not a Baratheon Queen. You are a Targaryen Quen, the wife of the King Daemon Targaryen, mother of his heirs. You are the mother of a new Dragon Dynasty."

Johanna smiles as she straightens her shoulders as she looks at herself in the mirror as the Lady Arryen steps back with a proud smile on her face.

"Queen Johanna Targaryen," the Falcon says "May the Seven Kingdoms bow in terror and awe."
