Thrid Person POV

Essos, 296 AC.

---------------------------------------

The ships continued sailing south of Essos, heading east, as they would have a few days before approaching Volantis.

"So you're making maps like this... very well drawn..." Jon heard a voice approaching as she sat down beside him while he was in his cabin, drawing with his eagles in the sky capturing the perfect details of the coastlines for him to represent on paper.

"Yes..." Jon muttered softly as he continued drawing the precise curves on his paper, his mind split between focusing on the drawing and the eagle's eyes in the sky.

"..." She looked at Jon, a little curious about his curt demeanor.

"Don't look at him like that..." Ygritte spoke near them, drawing a landscape. "He always gets so focused when he's making these drawings, since he needs every little detail." The second queen commented, and Rhaenys nodded, trying to understand as her gaze returned to Jon, concentrating on the drawing.

"Alright." She said eventually, sitting beside him admiring her husband there, making his drawings. They had married three days ago and spent most of their time together without Jon consummating the marriage due to her pregnancy.

Still, they spent every night together with Ygritte, though none of them did anything in front of Rhaenys. She knew what they did when alone, not that Rhaenys could complain about it.

Jon continued with his drawings, and even Daenerys joined them in the cabin, accustomed to entering there with Ygritte on the days Jon was away.

Jon spent a while focused on his maps until he finally finished, blinking as he noticed Rhaenys was no longer beside him but rather with Daenerys, looking at a drawing made by Ygritte. It was none other than Eragon himself, with Ygritte finishing the coloring as she outlined his features—white skin with green spots.

"You're certainly getting really good at these drawings, Ygritte..." Jon approached after finally completing his part of the continent, his eagle still on watch, gathering memories for Jon to review later.

"I know." Ygritte smiled with an arrogant response, as she had been improving quite quickly, and soon enough, she'd be able to make realistic drawings.

"This is your dragon, Jon? How big is he? Dany told me you've had him since you were nine or ten years old." Rhaenys looked at Jon, her eyes full of excitement.

"He's about fifteen meters long... he's growing much faster thanks to the sacred tree in the city... if the other dragons have the same effect from the Great Weirwood, then Artica will be blessed with many dragons flying its skies in just a few years."

"So beautiful... I didn't know dragons had four legs..." Daenerys commented in admiration.

"He's unique. I'll be off to handle some matters; stay as long as you need." Jon said in the end, and they nodded as he left the cabin.

Outside, he found his men calmly doing some tasks, but nothing urgent as they sailed with nothing else on the sea but themselves. As he walked among his men, greeting them, he went to the edge of the ship, where Arya and Wind were tossing something into the water.

"What are you doing?" Jon asked, seeing them throw food.

"We're trying to see if we can call Serume!" Arya answered with a smile, making Jon roll his eyes.
