Daenyra Targaryen has known loss ever since she was born. When she was 3 months old, her mom died due to complications of her labors. It took her father all but two months, to go off and become a Maester at the citadel. Leaving behind his only daughter Daenyra, and his claim to the Iron throne, Vaegon Targaryen was the one who proposed for King Jaehaerys to hold the Great Council.The iron throne and Daenyra both ended up in the care of her cousin Viserys, and his wife Aemma who had just had a daughter of their own.
Growing up, Rhaenyra and Daenyra were constantly together. The two took very kindly to one another, and were frequently always off somewhere causing mischief together. Daenyra and Rhaenyra would usually be found in the dragon pit, roaming the castle grounds or sneaking around, when they had a spare moment.
Daenyra was remarkably intelligent, agile, and brave. By the age of 8, Daenyra had already claimed her dragon but it was not the egg that had been put in her cradle by her Cousin Daemon. No, that would have been too easy. The beast that she managed to claim, was the Cannibal. A dragon that she had to sneak around the guards to even go near. She renamed the bad tempered beast Karnax, and the once untamable cannibal bended only to the will of the Orphan Princess of Dragonstone.
The Maesters would call Daenyra the reincarnation of Visenya, which was as much of a compliment as it was a warning. She was not the type to sit with things she was not pleased with, and she was as gifted with a sword as she was beautiful. She caught the eye of many lords, receiving marriage offers from the Starks, Lannisters, Raenyeros, and even Baratheons.
When the Dance of the Dragons breaks out, Daenyra is thrown into battles of loyalty, duty and family. Let's see how she fares through the gossiping ladies, the leaching lords, and the vulturous council.
Come find out how she earns the name the Cannibal Princess.
