Arya POV

After soaring over countless mountains and forests, the sight of Dragonstone finally appeared over the vast Blackwater. The whole ride there was quite silent; Jon appeared to had something bothering him, for which he felt he could not speak to me about. I kept asking myself whether if it was about him being a secret Targaryen or something else.

Jon landed onto a field which soon crowded with people, including the queen herself. We dismounted and approached the surrounding lot. Sansa, standing somewhat next to the Queen, stared at me. She either looked relieved to see me or surprised to have seen me on the Queen's dragon. Jon embraced his Queen and then Sansa.

Jon- The rest of the northern houses agreed to fallback. They'll be here within a fortnight.

The Dragon Queen's face remained rather emotionless.

Daenerys- That's...very nice to hear.

Jon- You alright?

Daenerys shook her head and reluctantly replied.

Daenerys- Cersei's forces plotted an ambush earlier...Drogon was attacked.

Jon- Is he-

Daenerys- He's alright.

I looked around to realize that the Queen's other dragon wasn't in sight. He was most likely resting.

Daenerys- You both are probably tired from your long journey. Let me show you to your rooms.

Jon stepped in and followed the Queen inside the fortress. Before I could join them, Sansa stepped in front of me.

Sansa- Who gave you permission to fly with Jon across the world?

Arya- Last time I checked, you weren't my mother.

Sansa- Arya I'm serious! I was worried for you.

I didn't reply.

Sansa- Where's Bran?

Arya- He's not here?

Sansa- No he's nowhere in the castle. I thought he was with you.

Arya- I...

I turned my head to view Jon entering the castle, Sansa soon did the same. Jon had remained quiet of Bran's whereabouts, and if Bran wasn't on the island then where was he? Sansa and I looked back at each other with unsettling looks.

Tyrion POV

Jaime- So this is Dragonstone?

Tyrion- Not what you're used to, is it?

Jaime- No it's...

My brother looked around the throne room of Dragonstone, on our way to the Chamber of the Painted Table.

Jaime- A sight.

Tyrion- Hmm, a sight it is.

Jaime looked back at me.

Tyrion- Seems almost as unwelcoming as Winterfell. Doesn't it?

Jaime- You think she's still mad?

Tyrion- You almost killed her at the Battle of the Roseroad...you successful killed her father during the sacking of the city.

Jaime turned his head in annoyance.
