DAENERYS WATCHED AS MISSANDEI TUGGED at the end of her dress nervously for what felt like the tenth time that evening. Daenerys slaps her hand away and Missandei looks up at her sheepishly.

"Sorry," she apologizes, "I've never been to a celebration before."

"You look beautiful," Daenerys tells her, "No need to fret."

Missandei smiles at the comment and Daenerys returns it before her eyes drift to the crowded hall. Her brother had invited all the lords and ladies that had attended the tournament to the castle, which meant that it was quite filled to capacity.

She noticed as Rhaenys rushed towards her, "Have you seen Jon or Selena?"

"No," Daenerys answers, "Speaking of Jon, when were you going to tell me-"

"There is nothing to tell," Rhaenys states firmly and Daenerys backs off of the topic immediately.

"As for Selena, I have not seen her," Daenerys answers and Rhaenys seems to breathe a sigh of relief. Daenerys glances at Missandei to see if she notices the change and she nods subtly, indicating that she does.

"Good," Rhaenys answers, "I'll be getting drunk, should you need me."

"Oh, very well then," Daenerys says with a nod and watches as her niece walks away. She glances at Missandei who shrugs.

"Missandei!"

Daenerys and Missandei both look up surprised as Allara Velaryon makes her way over to them, a huge smile on her face.

"Allara?" Missandei says softly.

Allara takes Missandei's arm into her own and leans around to glance over at Daenerys, "Can I borrow her for a moment?"

"What for exactly?" Daenerys questions.

"My father and brother are here. I want to introduce her. They could help her find her brothers, since they are sailors," Allara states and Daenerys notices how Missandei's eyes seem to light with hope. She had promised that she would help Missandei, and it seemed that Allara was offering.

"Oh um certainly!" Daenerys insists and Allara smiles at her before dragging Missandei away. Daenerys sighed as she glanced at the crowded room. There were so many people and yet here she was alone.

She takes a cup of wine from one of the passing servants and sips from it as she finds Selena standing on the outskirts, watching as people mingled. It was unlike Selena to be alone, especially at a social event. She finished off the contents of her cup before wandering over to Selena.

"Where's Missandei?" Selena asks, not tearing her gaze away from everyone.

"Allara took her," Daenerys answers, "But I'm sure you had something to do with that."
