Jaehaerys Targaryen

Jae was walking with Dany in the long corridor of Harrenhal, followed by Ser Arthur and Ser Oswell. Since he returned with his father from the forest, Jae had felt happier than usual. Jae couldn't stop smiling since his father told him that he loved him.

Jae's face was lighted up like a fire, and everyone could notice it. His smile broadened from ear to ear.
"Dany, what kind of place is Kings Landing?" Jae asked, looking at her.
"Well . . . It is a pretty place, is a very large place, it has a beautiful view, the place is very rich, every room is very good looking, looking outside you can have a very beautiful view of the city, and is much better now that it doesn't stink like it used too, a few years ago," she responded kindly giving him a kind smile.

She looked to be thinking about what else to say about KingsLanding.

"Is located in the southeastern corner of King's Landing, from the Red Keep you can see Blackwater Bay and the Narrow Sea. One of the places in Red Keep is Maegor's Holdfast. It is a strut tower in the centre of the Red Keep. It was named after King Maegor Targaryen, who built the Red Keep. It serves as a redoubt when the city is attacked. The royal apartments are also located in Maegor's Holdfast," she said with a genuine smile at him.

"What about the Throne Room, and the throne itself? Is it really made of 1000 swords of Aegon's enemies?" Jae asked interestedly, wanting to know more about KingsLanding, and he noticed from the corner of his eyes, Arthur chuckling under his breath.

"The Throne Room is consists of a large, cavernous room. Its entrance is made up of two huge bronze and wood doors. The Iron Throne sits on the opposite side, atop a raised dais climbed up to by two sets of wide steps of rough black stone; small chairs may be placed when the King or the Hand is accompanied by members of the small council. The floor is made of different types of marble.

Overhead is the towering vaulted ceiling, with massive arches and columns. On the right side of the Hall stands a raised gallery that connects to other areas of the Red Keep. To the left side of the Hall, several windows with stained-glass depictions of the seven-pointed star of the Faith of the Seven allow light to enter.

As for the throne, it is enormous. I was scared of it when I was younger. It looked like wanted to swallow whoever was seated on The Throne, but as Aegon I Targaryen said. A King Should Never Sit Easy. Once Aegon told me to sit on it, but I was afraid, and that went for some time until I was eight years old," she responded quietly at the end to not be heard by Ser Arthur and Ser Oswell.

Jae finds it funny and laughs under his nose, and Dany laughed with him. Dany then started talking again about The Throne Room.

"In the hall are placed, the skulls of the old dragons of old Targaryens, from Balerion to Black Dread, to other dragons like Silverwing, Dreamfyre, and many others," she added with the same kind tone.

"How large is Balerion's skull?" Jae asked, noticing the cute little smile on Dany's face.

"Is larger than a horse, I walked inside of the mouth many times, I looked like an insect compare to that skull, and sometimes I felt like he could see me," she responded, thinking that she sounded stupid.

Jaehaerys knew that feeling well, and he remembered to have the same feeling when he went to the crypts of Winterfell. He felt like the old kings of Winter were looking at him.

"I understand that," Jae responded kindly.

"You seem to know the names of old dragons," Jae said playfully.
"Me and Rhaenys always liked to read about the old dragons, there were . . . Many times when I dreamed of flying and being a dragon rider," she responded kindly.
