We're sprawled around Rhaenyras war tent waiting for the rest of the Lords to make their way to us. The amount of bodies around Rosby is staggering. Slowly the rest of the council makes their way into the tent and my mother rises and we all follow suit.

"The time has come for us to take the throne. I have word Aemond and Vhagar are going to be moving to Harrenhal on the morrow. I'm sending Y/n and Baela to assess the city walls and see where we can enter through easiest. On their return tonight we will plan further of where everyone's placement is going to be and the part they play." Rhaenyra looks on at the nodding Lords.

Ben holds me to him tighter as I feel his anxiety rise. I pat his leg trying to comfort him. Of course I'm nervous but we're simply scouting and we'll stick to the clouds. Our dragons are light enough where if we stay high we can avoid being seen. Rhaenyra dismisses the Lords and council members so they can spend the last couple of hours of sunlight with their men before everything changes tomorrow. The dragon riders are the only ones who linger behind in her tent.

"What I'm asking of you all tomorrow will be no small feat. I know that Vhagar will be out of the city but we have to keep watch for scorpions and take them out promptly. They still have Dreamfyre, but I know Helaena will not be riding her. Sunfyre is no longer in the city and Aegon is incapacitated. We should be the only ones flying over the city." Rhaenyra looks to all of us, nodding her head as she looks down at the map of Kings Landing.

"Baela and I can deal with the scorpions. Moondancer and Vermax are still small which allows them to remain quick and agile." Jace offers walking over to look over her shoulder at the map.

"I wish to avoid as many civilian casualties as possible. Try to keep the fighting outside of the city walls. I'm hoping that once they see we've arrived the city folk will start to fight with us and attack the Greens from behind." Rhaenyra looks to Jace and Baela who nod at her instructions.

"Y/n and Ben will stay with the host. They've been training alongside them and they've fought alongside Silverwing so they know what to expect." her eyes linger on us before they turn to Addam.

"It is my hope that you can stay by my side. Seasmoke is formidable and has seen action so I may very well send you with Jace and Baela to provide them that extra support." he nods eagerly at her commands.

"At sunset you both will set out." her eyes glance from me to Baela. "Please stay to the clouds and do not engage. I mean it." her voice firm but her eyes pleading.

"Of course," Baela nods and I along with her.

"I will see you all for supper." she dismisses us to go about the camp.

Ben and I rise and walk through the men until we start seeing familiar faces. Our dragons are nesting near the outskirts of our Riverland host. As we approach I see our tent has already been built. We slip through the opening and sigh as we sit on our bed.
