AEREA WATCHES AS RHAENYRA TAKES OFF ON SYRAX.
When Jace ran in after her too late, "mother!"
She looked at him as he realized her presence.
He seemed shocked to see her in Dragonstone.
"Aerea-"
"Jace," Aerea nods at Luke's older brother, "I like the hair."
Jacaerys seemed confused but just nodded, "I decided why hide the curls after Luke's demise... I was told you were... There..."
He trails off seeing the look on her face.
It was trauma flash backs hitting her over and over.
"I apologize," Jacaerys told him, "I shouldn't-"
"He was your brother," Aerea reassures, "I miss him..." She touches the bump as his eyes wander to it, "I wish I could have married him instead. My life would have been... So much different."
Jace nods, "aye, I assume all of our lives would be?"
"Yes..." Aerea sighs looking down, "I need to go lay down, My Prince, if you'll excuse me."
Jace wished her a good night.
RHAENYRA FOUND CANNIBAL but kept a distance.
His rider on the other hand came to them.
"You."
Rhaenyra realized she had seen this man before... He was one of the boys who helped Aerea escape.
Addam steps up as she looks between him and Cannibal, "you stand before the QUEEN of the Seven Kingdoms with a dragon of Old Valyra... One that has never been claimed... How did you accomplish this?"
Addam looks at Cannibal, "you can trust I had no hand in this."
Rhaenyra blinks as she realizes quite alot from that.
"What do you want?!" Rhaenyra demanded an answer.
Addam looks at Cannibal again before nodding, "to learn the ways of Dragon Riders... And to serve my Queen."
He kneels to her.
Rhaenyra and Syrax carefully walk over to them as Cannibal lowly growls in the protection of his rider.
Rhaenyra looks over at Syrax and puts her arm out, "umbas," she whispers before looking back at Addam, "you kneel quickly... For a man so suddenly elevated with a dragon and a proposal to a Princess-"
Addam looks at her in shock as she realizes she just told him.
"I didn't mean-"
"What are you speaking of, My Queen? I am a low born..." Addam shook his head, "I cannot marry a Princess... And this dragon came to me, not I to him. It was pretty terrifying if I was to speak the truth and I am believe me..." He glances back at Cannibal.
