♡Dhaenyria ♡

Laughter and dragon calls filled the skies as four princesses flew upon their dragons. Dhaenyria gigled in delight enjoying the sun on her back and the wind blowing her hair out of her face. Moon Crescent grumbled from beneath her and let out a delighted screech to the other three dragons around her.

Dhaenyria turned her head to look at her younger sister Rhaenyra upon her beautiful Syrax her sister grinned at her edging her yellow dragon to go faster then Dhaenyria's Moon Crescent. As Dhaenyria was older than her sister her dragon was older than her own to making her stronger and faster than Syrax, but, not by much.

The two ancient dragons to either side of the sisters grumbled aswell trying to catch up with the faster dragons. Paraxes the Red Revenge was to Rhaenyras right upon his back Dhaenyria could spot Naelyra her aunt and younger sister to the King. Naelyras matching silver gold hair and violet eyes gave nod to her Targaryen heritage and upon her dragon Paraxes one of the four Conquerors dragons she looked every bit the ambitious Queen Xaenerys.

Paraxes was an old dragon and the only male out of the four he was currently the largest dragon in the world and had no rider since the Old Kings eldest daughter who had claimed her right to the throne before Rhaenys, until Naelyra claimed him at eleven. He had large head frills on the side of his head that would flare out when threatened or breathing fire. While his tail resembled a morningstar and was covered un spikes prefect for causing a lot of damage. Himself and his rider were quite the duo both fierce and frightening.

In contrast, Rhaegelle was very different to her cousin even though the two got along very well.
Rhaegelles mother had none other than been the infamous Sarea Targaryen the disgraced princess. She had been brought to Westeros by her elder brother's with a letter from Saera saying she believed that Rhaegelle would do better in Westeros than with her in Essos and asking her father if he would be willing to legitimise her. Jahaerys agreed to take care of Rhaegelle and allowed her to be in Kings Landing much to the behest of his wife.

Rhaegelle was also very beautiful compared to the harsh beauty of Naelyra, she was tall with all the signature Valyian features and deep indigo eyes. Everything except her dark wavy locks that were as "black as coal and ebony" according to the singer's. Rhaegelle also had a great love of music and dancing, singing, balls and feasts and she always dressed richly in shades of ruby, garnet and maroon. Very different to Naelyras often plain dresses accompanied by her sword. Many nobles and smallfolk alike compared them to Visenya and Rhaenys Targaryen two of the four Conquerors.

Starglider was Rhaegelles dragon the silver beast of old was the third largest dragon after Paraxes but Vhagar. The she-dragon was pure silver and was sleek and elegant with slivers of blue and two large horns on her head twisting to the front.

Starglider was ridden by Queen Consort Daella Targaryen eldest daughter of Aegon and Xaenerys Targaryen and wife to King Aenys I. Rhaegelle was proud to have such a magnificent dragon and beloved her dearly since she was 12 years old. It was at that moment she truly proved her Targaryen heritage.

Dhaenyria turned her head back to look forward towards Kings Landing after her reminiscence.
Whispering to her dragon and urging her to go faster Dhaenyria flew ahead of the three other dragons and Syrax flew in behind her.

They soared over Kings Landing passing the Keep and keep close to the rooftops in hopes of frightening a few smallfolk, heading to the dragonpit or atleast herself and Rhaenyra, Starglider and Paraxes were to large for the pit.

Barely sparing a glance at the citizen's below Dhaenyria flew over to the opening of the pit were several of her father's guards and dragon keepers waited for her and her sister's arrival several other guards waiting for Rhaegelle and Naelyra in the field beside King's Landing.
