The Dragon Queen

Vōre

Daenerys stood near her Khal as they discussed their plans, she did intend to gain the unsullied she had explained to her husband and his blood riders who they were and how they came to be. Frankly, they were disgusted by the practice. She would stay in Essos and build an empire after that she would leave and take over Westeros.

After all, she needed to gain a reputation that would travel knowing that they would need to go through or around Meeren she told her husband and his men how to prepare. They nodded before walking off to spread her word. Daenerys turned around and looked above her she wondered about House Martell and if they were well.

Daella walked over with a bright smile and a letter, but Daenerys paid it no mind the colour of the paper said enough "Arya Stark is on her way here isn't she" Daella nodded surprised by how her Khaleesi knew everything already. She watched as the Woman starched out her arm and her dragons came in a swarm to surround her.

"I was trained by the faceless men the colour of the paper tells me everything I need to know". As Daenerys spoke, she was gentle with her dragons. Six males and Six females meant she would have to repair the dragon pit. "We ride to Astapor then from there we will begin our conquest. "

Looking at her dragons she took notice that they were about the size of a dog which was a good sign for her. Looking at her dragons she smiled until her child was born, she would be the only dragon. Jon Snow was a wolf, and her uncle was the dying dragon. He would unfortunately never see her return.

She knew that originally Daenerys had gone to Qarth but she could not do so the red waste was not somewhere she wanted the Khalasar to pass through. Additionally, some friends of hers would meet them in Astapor. 

Lost in her thoughts she did not notice how the Khalasar was focused on her several mumbled a phrase in the common tongue "Dragon Queen" Khal Drogo stood proud as he heard the whispers. His blood rider smirked "Kishi khaleesi ajjin jin zhavvorsa" (our Khalessi is a dragon) the other men nodded in agreement before they prepared. Astapor would be a two-week ride, giving them lots of villages to raid. The Khaleesi's only condition was to not rape anyone that they could agree to as they had their own women.

Catelyn Stark was nervous her husband had written that Arya had vanished and that he could not find her. In addition, he had sent Sansa back home as it looked as if Arya had been kidnapped. Beside her Robb and Rickon watched their mother who reluctantly handed her eldest the letter. She was tired and mainly drained. Bran's fall and the revelation of the Lannisters' being the cause no longer held precedent.

Was this punishment for how she treated Jon? The more she thought about it a heavy feeling of guilt descended on her. She felt like a failure stumbling to her chair she started to cry. Robb watched his mother he knew he would have to step up more but this was sooner than expected. Before he could say a word, a raven landed near his crying mother. Who quickly wiped her tears and took the letter.

As she read it Catelyn got pale the handwriting was beautiful and delicate but the symbol of the house that had been nearly hunted to the point of extinction was drawn in scarlet colour.

Your daughter is safe with us, however, know that the lions plan to devour a stag and a wolf. You should also be aware of the traitors within your bannermen after all Dreadfort is loyal to money and so are the Frey's.

She was quite alarmed "Robb go get me paper and ink" she watched as Robb left with Rickon following him. This was not good because there was a living Targaryen it meant war and she was not dumb all of the stark lords had given a vow to the Targaryen in addition so had her father so long ago.

It seemed the three-headed dragon was back and waiting in the shadows, as her eldest returned she locked the door and showed him the letter. Robb's eyes widened he was pleased Arya was safe and far away from the Lannister's but the writer had just given them a warning that they needed to follow.

He looked at his mother and then at the darkness of night "Send a rider to father tell him that he needs to return home urgently Bran is dying" The Tully woman nodded and left the room soon Robb heard horses leaving Winterfell.

Taking a deep breath Robb made his way over to his father's solar and hide the letter in the painting of his parents. Winter was coming sooner than expected but he would ensure that the pack survived. He knew that it would take a while for the riders to reach his father so he sent a raven not to his father but to the King so that his father would be sent home.

He also sent Stannis Baratheon a letter informing him that this father would be returning and the King would need his family by his side as the stag was surrounded by lions. His wording was careful but straight to the point.

He needed to ensure that Winterfell was prepared for the coming war a dragon alive meant a fight for the iron throne but this time instead of burning a stark they had saved them so he would repay the favour.

Oberyn Martell sat opposite his brother he had only just returned home and had informed his brother of the truth behind the Rebellion his paramour and daughters behind him. All waiting for Doran's reaction it was silent for a few minutes before the man flipped the table near him.

"Twelve dragons need armour" he hissed before turning to Ellaria " I want all those lions dead to send one of your daughters to meet our family member in Essos " The woman nodded and glanced at her daughters who all held a bloodthirsty look in their eyes. 

They had all longed for revenge against the Lannister's and now that Daenerys had grown up they would support her "What about the spider?" Ellaria asked she despised the man but she knew that he was a threat.

"Daenerys has him and his brother handled." Oberyn said with a smirk hearing this Doran watched his brother waiting for the Red viper to explain "She is allied with the faceless men as such that fat man has long been replaced"

Ellaria shivered the Faceless men had existed for a long time, but they still put her off she was shocked that the Targaryen had managed to ally with them but that meant that Daenerys had already begun her invasion.

The girl was not to be underestimated, she truly was a dragon and it seemed like she hunted like an apex predator.
