Scientific technology can either advance with its time or beyond it. Much speculation is always left where the human race tries to attempt something it shouldn't. Bringing back the extinct instead of leaving it to rest.

Dr. Henry Wu had precisely that. It all began with the ill fated Jurassic Park and now Jurassic World, residing on Isla Nublar just as its predecessor  had was trying to do everything Jurassic World couldn't, achieve what it only aspired to and took all necessary precautions to avoid what had happened before.

What most seemed to forget was that there were many creatures that have yet to be discovered, perhaps existed in the past and left no trace of its presence.

Even more possibly, perhaps they never went away at all.

Dany Targaryen's history was an interesting one. Her ancestors traced all the way to Old Valyria,  a long since ruined empire. Dany only knew what her family had told her, and there wasn't much of it left. Back in the 1300s, the Targaryen House sigil was the three headed dragon, symbolizing Aegon Targaryen and his two sisters, Rhaenys and Visenya. Together they conquered Westeros and forged the Seven Kingdoms from the backs of dragons.

Dany didn't know what reality it was supposed to take place in, perhaps there was a middle earth in a different realm than many knew, nor did she know how much stock to put into her history. As she sat on the flight to Costa Rica, it would take multiple forms of transportation to even get to the park, but it didn't damper her excitement.

Reading through files and the park's brochure, she was able to see just what dinosaurs existed within Jurassic World, brushing a strand of her almost white blonde hair that had fallen in wisps from her already travel-mussed bun, her laptop on the drop table on the plane as she thumbed out her notes. She had studied predators almost exclusively, perhaps being the "blood of the dragon" had drawn her to potentially dangerous reptilian creatures. She'd spent quite an extensive amount of time in the field and working in animal behavior. When the job had opened up at Jurassic World and Dany was presented with the possibility of working with dinosaurs, of all things, she was almost in complete disbelief. But the video footage sent to her by Henry Wu had her convinced, and she still remembered staring slack jawed at the enormous brachiosaurus ripping leaves from tree tops in the video.

Another couple hours eventually landed her on the monorail leading to the park. When she got off, she found herself greeted by a tight lipped, straight postured brunette.

"Daenerys Targ—Targarian?" The woman seemed to try, shooting Dany a quizzical and almost sheepish look.

"Targaryen," Dany gave her some relief with a light hearted laugh, her own English roots relieved to find that this woman herself seemed to originate from somewhere in Great Britain. "You can call me Dany."

"Dany," The woman's tension seemed to melt away a little bit and the slightest ghost of a smile curved at her lips. "Where does that name come from? Is it Armenian?"
