River Rhoyne Essos - Ny Sar

Garin looked over the rivers of the Rhoyne in the early evening and he rubbed his head while Rhoynish Children played. Babies, children, boys and girls played with their parents at the Rhoyne and Nymeria put a hand on his shoulder, "come back from your thoughts Garin."

"Nothing is evil that's so damn funny when the borders are closed why do I have the feeling I've taken on the wrong opponent i should never have crossed the Rhoyne with my warriors and people. Tell me about which commanders fought against Ghiscar and i know Averessa fought against the Harpy too who is the most powerful and skillful person in the Valyrian Empire", said Garin and Nymeria looked at him, "Garin this is a war we cannot hope to win! Ghiscar is already dead the Rhoynar will no longer have control when you attack Valyria when you play invasion", said Nymeria and her people nodded.

"You can call Valyria racist but not insane then I'd say don't start too much trouble with Valyria you must also hope to achieve a peace Garin in consideration or an alliance and no Valyria is far from innocent Valyria is not innocent Daenys, Gaemon or Averessa are not innocent. To be fair, Garin, it was only a matter of time before things went wrong between Rhoynar and Valyria and we could still go to Ulthos or Yi Ti or the Far East you don't have to die to be fair Valyria was attacked through Ghiscar. Ghiscar attacked first and you attacked Valyria and crossed the Rhoyne first and Valyria is not the Babysitter for you or Westerosis", said Nymeria and her Rhoynar nodded and Garin groaned.

"I need to know something about our enemy the persons in the background tell me man and woman who is the most influential person in Valyria I want to know how it is put together in their council and government i send a declaration of war to Valyria", said Garin with heavy rhoynish accent, "Valyria likes to troll and that's what these men and women do they're trolling you we like to go the night before their primaries it's called we do a little trolling make Imperialism great again. Averessa and Aegor Belaerys. Visenna Qoherys. Aenar and Elaena Targaryen how legendary these 5 actually are even without their Dragons they fought and destroyed Ghiscar. These five are the most powerful and influential they built Valyria as we know it millions of Valyrians follow them. If you ask me for a top 5 and the woman predominates and not the man and the valyrian women are better leaders than Westerosis while 5 fingers on one hand then number 1 is Aegor Belaerys with his money his workers and wielder of Heartsbane. 2nd place Averessa Belaerys with her money and silver mines and destroyer of Ghiscar. 3rd place Elaena Targaryen and 4th place Aenar Targaryen with their forges and gold mines. 5th place Visenna Qoherys with her copper mines, rubies and her Valyrian Knights. They are the oldest Valyrians when they and their Dragons awakened and saw the world thousands of years ago. Ghiscar has felt before what it means to take on Valyria. Ghiscar is dead this is a war we cannot hope to win the strongest Hosts that ever existed in the known world", said Nymeria and her Rhoynar.

Mantarys Valyrian Peninsula

"This is a declaration of war Garin gathers his armies and marches from Ny Sar to Volantis in two days. Garin and his Rhoynar declared war it's remarkable how fear bounces off you five it's almost as if fear doesn't make you itch. It's remarkable how fear doesn't bother you Visenna", said Rhaegion Velaryon and everyone nodded and Daenys, Jaenara, Ardrian, Aurion and Gaemon looked at Rhaegion while Visenna, Aenar, Elaena, Averessa and Aegor looked at each other and Averessa and Aenar pointed at Visenna when she got up from her chair, "Visenna you're the political genius."

"Oh I have to react fear doesn't make me itch like a fat tarantula under your bed it never goes away not really", said Visenna smiling and everyone millions laughed aloud, "fair enough", said Elaena and millions laughed aloud and Visenna walked through the room while she looked at statues and pictures from battles and wars, "ok uhmm let's start that people hide behind foul language then go to Asshai and you will find forces that are foul that dragons must beware of. I love my land and my countrymen and i love our gods and I believe we are the greatest Valyrian generation there will ever be we achieved great things and there are still many things I would like to see here in Valyria look at our roads, steel, our weapons, laws, marriages, not only our dragons or firewyrms but also our seafarers the best in the world. I don't think Valyria or Aenar or Aegor or I are difficult to understand, Aegor with his gold mining or Aenar with his forges or I with my ore mines maybe it won't be obvious with me and Ardrian i don't know but my brother and i feel fear I think the five of us feel fear as normal as anyone else otherwise you have serious problems and if Valyria were gone then nothing would matter. Dragons can be afraid too. We have a lot more than Westerosis or Sothoryos or Rhoynar. The difference is that there is a bang at our borders and not on our mainland. Aegor is the best daddy for Valyria and Averessa is the best mum for Valyria. Mummy or daddy? Does anyone in this room know how many people live in the north? Can someone please tell me or us 5 how many Northmen there are in the north. I'm not keen on finding a second child for Valyria just because we don't know about some gods or religions of the north and I want to remind the Valyrians one last time we Valyrians have enough to do", said Visenna and everyone nodded and Meraxes Velaryon lifted her hand and Visenna pointed at her, "Meraxes."

"Not even half a million people not 500,000 northerners a little less and that in comparison, that's not a comparison, they're outskirts perhaps between 450 - 500,000 Northmen", said Meraxes and Visenna nodded, "correct", and Visenna pointed at Rhaegion Velaryon.

"Lord Velaryon for a conquest almost as many soldiers are needed as the population almost 8 Million Valyrians here on the Peninsula almost 1 Million active Valyrian soldiers at our borders with our reserves we are over 1 Million soldiers, neither House Stark, Tully or Hoare have the numbers to make any difference here in Valyria and House Lannister, Hightower or Stark don't have the numbers we do. I think Aegor is the best Emperor Valyria will ever have and Averessa is the best Empress to be fair Valyria didn't start with this and Lord Velaryon is right that Garin is one of those who started it and I think Lord Velaryon will agree with me when I say that Valyria has managed it wonderfully up to this point with our economy and our trade and as long as I have a say, Nymeria won't even be able to have her hair dyed here in my motherland not here in Valyria am i right Rhaegion and we can be very proud, Lord Velaryon, that our economy is unbreakable the commands were clear always watch for Ghiscar and the Rhoynar. As long i have a say Nymeria and her sexism, hypocrisy, racism, terrorism will never enter Valyria and send a warning to Ny Sar when Garin crossed the Rhoyne he will no longer have control", said Visenna Qoherys and she looked at Rhaegion Velaryon and everyone applauded loudly and Rhaegion Velaryon smiled and nodded and Visenna sat down and they pointed at Averessa, "Averessa you're next", said Visenna.

"Valyria has never been more united than it is now as long as I have something to say here in Valyria, Garin or Nymeria won't even be greenkeepers in Mantarys when sabers are rattled or our borders are attacked and the orders have always been clear destroy Ghiscar and the Rhoynar. I can say Aegor has always taken good care of me and the same goes for Aenar, Visenna and Elaena they have also always taken good care of me and I will reciprocate the same until one day my bones turn to dust or I grow tired of the world. Valyria has always stood together since the world was young and it will remain that way as long as Aenar or I have a say here in Valyria, as long as I have political power, Valyria will always be together as long as i'm here on the Peninsula", said Averessa and Millions of Valyrians applauded loudly.

Thoughts of Daenys Targaryen - Daenys the Dreamer the Lady of Magic youngest child of Lord Aenar and Lady Elaena Targaryen younger sister to Gaemon the Glorious - Valyrian Traditions, Politics and Laws

"Valyria. The Land of the Dragon the Dragon's Empire. The most beautiful and secret city of the Dragonlords built and founded by my beloved older brother Gaemon the Glorious, my father Aenar Targaryen, Emperor Aegor, Empress Averessa and my ancestors against Valyria's enemies and in that first sunrise i felt the light of the One Arrax ruler of all Valyrians and all Dragons the Rise of Valyria when we and our Dragons awakened and the stars were young. It was a refuge of hope amidst the darkness of Essos it remained hidden for centuries surrounded by the encircling Fourteen Flames a volcanic mountain range shining with the light of the stars. The greatest nation the World has ever seen Arrax has spoken to us there's still hope the time of fear passed stand with me sons and daughters of Valyria fight for your Emperor fight for your land some of the smartest people in the history of the world the greatest Valyrian Generation. Come with me and witness the dawn of Valyria and the time of the Conquerors, the fires of my dominion and witness the Years of the Stars coming to an end. I have given my life to Valyria, I have pledged my life and soul to this wonderful nation I have been fighting for my country and my compatriots for as long as I can remember. Heed the motherland's call and brace for the Storm. Valyria will never give in there is no surrender."

• Volantis the first daughter of Valyria River Rhoyne Essos - during the time of Daenys and Gaemon Targaryen, Aurion and Jaenara Belaerys Volantis was the oldest city founded and built through the dragonlords of Old Valyria after the victory and the destruction of Ghiscar with a major land gain and influence for Valyria. It was Valyria's first daughter. Volantis is a major trade city due to proximity to Valyria established to protect the borders of the Freehold, Volantis was little more than a garrison - Valyrian Trade, Outpost and Valyrian Borderland Rhoynish Valyrian Wars victory for the Valyrian Empire and the death of Garin the Great the Rhoynar armies destroyed - Nymeria's Exodus from her Valyrian captors and Nymeria's marriage with Mors Martell in Sunspear in Dorne / Westeros •

Water and rain in the clouds, fire, salt and sweat in the air humid like in the Amazon and in the rainforest welcome to the jungle of your nightmare. Catapults and trebuchets shot at the walls and gates of Volantis, children, men and women ran in panic from the Rhoynar. Valyrian Elephants trampled over the Rhoynar Mages while Daenys and Gaemon destroyed Garin and his warriors.

Gaemon and Daenys marched over the dead Rhoynar mages while Ardrian landed with Aerax and Visenna landed with Archonei the Qoherys siblings marched over the battlefield and Garin crawled in the dirt, "Seize him Ardrian fetch me a block and bring Garin and Blackfyre to me Rhaegion i cut off your head here and now and you can line up his men and you can execute them one by one. Valyria does not ask for a place in world history, power, freedom or manipulation. Valyria fights for it", said Gaemon and Ardrian, Rhaegion and the Dragonlords and Valyrian Knights dragged Garin through the dirt while the Valyrians laughed aloud over him, "Garin learned to respect the Valyrians many years ago, am i right you little son of a bitch? In the name of Fire Emperor Aurion Belaerys any last words Garin now is the time and my land and countrymen will stand always until judgment day you little shit. You or Nymeria will never destroy us all", said Gaemon and Ardrian, Visenna, Rhaegion, Daenys, the Volantenese and the Dragonlords chuckled.

"ARROGANT BITCHES! I PISS ON VALYRIA LUNATICS BORN OUT FROM INCEST AND VALYRIA'S CRAZY PURE BLOOD I ONLY SEE DRAGON-SPAWN", called Garin and Gaemon cut off Garin's head with Blackfyre.

"Execute Garin's followers Visenna and i send a message to the capital that Nymeria escaped to Westeros", said Daenys and Gaemon nodded.

"I will do that right away sister", and Ardrian, Visenna and their Valyrian Knights and Volantenese and Dragonlords killed Garin's followers.

Thoughts of Aegor and Averessa Belaerys born Qoherys - Fire Emperor and Fire Empress of all Valyrians or the Chief and Liege of all Dragonlords - Leaders against Ghiscar and the Rhoynar in the Great Valyrian Wars - Valyrian Traditions, Politics and Laws - Someone like Melian or Thingol for Doriath someone like Beren and Luthien or someone like Finrod Felagund, Galadriel and Celeborn

Over 400 years before Robert Baratheon with Cersei Lannister and the Greyjoy Rebellion, long before the Tournament of Harrenhal and Jaehaerys the Old King with his Good Queen Alysanne, many years before Volantis as Valyria's first daughter, a century before Rhaenys, Aegon and Visenya Targaryen the building of King's Landing and the forging of the Iron Throne their Conquest and Victory over the west - Westeros is a divided land its wealth and the strength divided among a dozen petty kings - Fisher, Dayne, Bolton, Gardener, Yronwood, Arryn, Stark or Hoare like squabbling children hardly worth mentioning old families fighting over old disputes or old claims but when you look over the Narrow Sea the Rise of an Empire one of the most advanced factions in the known world with a powerful and healthy economy and well-trained Commanders and the people run for their lives in fear and awe when they see the Valyrians the greatest seafarers in the world since I could breathe that it was all just for Valyria

My entire life i guarded the Valyrian Empire the biggest battle is yet to come. All the salt and sea fruits from the valyrian seas, all the valyrian engeering, the valyrian steel and jewelry from Elyria, the gold and silver from the 14 Flames the greatest civilization the known world has ever seen at the height of its power, Valyria stretched from Sothoryos, the Red Waste and Lhazar to Driftmark and Dragonstone in the Narrow Sea the westernmost outpost of the Valyrian Empire over continents, oceans, mountains. Many years before the Free Cities of Braavos, Pentos or Norvos, the Great Valyrian Streets or the Dragon Roads are considered one of the wonders of the world from the Hills of Andalos to Ghiscar deep in the far East of Essos and the people hold their breath and they run for their lifes as the Dragon Armies march under the Valyrian Banner, the powerhouse, superpower and fire nation in Essos

The dawn of Valyria when the stars were young with a weapon arsenal, trade and an economy with siege materials and a manpower up to 3000 Fire Dragons, 8000 Valyrian War Ships, 15000 Giant Crabs, 10000 Sea Dragons, 180000 Valyrian Knights, 80000 Valyrian Spearmen, 15000 Valyrian War Elephants, 90000 Valyrian Border guards, 20000 Firewyrms and over 400000 Dragonlords and whoever is able to calculate is over 800,000 active Valyrians under arms and 200,000 Knights in reserve up to 1 Million Valyrian soldiers. Old people, midwives, medicus, sick people, girls, boys, workers, babies or valyrian children are not included. Fear and Respect for the valyrian contingent and the war machinery. The greatest leaders for the Freehold Daenys the Dreamer, Gaemon the Glorious, Visenna the Starlight and the golden generation for Valyria the Apex of the Valyrians.

"Valyria's best Commander is back my most loyal vassal is back from the Rhoynish Valyrian War in Volantis there was panic in Nymeria's eyes as she fled for our history I hope your shoulder is feeling better he is a shining example of what a Valyrian soldier should be. Let's hear what my cousin Gaemon Targaryen and his elite Knights have to say. Silence in the senate silence in the room i command Silence", said Aurion while Averessa, Aegor, Daenys, Aenar and Elaena smiled at Gaemon, "I greet the Senate, Dragonlords and Senators. Garin and his followers are dead i executed him myself. Nymeria and her Rhoynar fled to Westeros after Sunspear in Dorne therefore i would councel we have our eyes to the west", said Gaemon, "Bring us maps from Westeros and the known world", called Averessa and a few moments later her servants brought maps from the known world.

"Gulltown, Rain House are great for targeted attacks, conquests and invasions. Daenys please", said Averessa and Ardrian.

"I know exactly what is being shouted here in Valyria. I know the Dragonlords and Valyrian Knights are impatient to attack Westeros. Our economy is much stronger than Riverlands, the North, Dorne or Westerlands. The people, men, women, children in Tengro, Oros or Mantarys call for a strong Valyria that will stand up to its enemies and defeat the Empire's adversaries the Empire strikes back they demand show the boundaries to the Westerosis they call Valyrian with Valyrian for the Dragon for the Glory of the Empire they call secure the Valyrian Leaders and our Geniuses, our Gods, Dragons, our Economy and Trade. Valyria has been waiting for such an opportunity for a long time and now it is within reach to compete with the West to celebrate our lifestyle, power, strength and wealth", said Daenys Targaryen and everyone in the room Daemion Velaryon and the senators agreed. Jaenara and Aurion turned with their chairs and the two Belaerys siblings looked at each other.

"Arrax, Vermithor, Balerion and the Gods have spoken and we must think of the Valyrians we must be more careful of our enemies we have to defend ourselves. For the Glory of the Empire send a declaration of war to Sunspear our attack on Westeros is long overdue. The hell itself could not digest Westeros and we show Valyria's Might to the Westerosis we are light years apart", said Jaenara and the senate applauded loudly

While we are not on the topic, female dragonriders with male dragons are underappreciated and not talked about enough. We have five throughout the world we have now. From the doom to Daenerys. The only ones who we have from Aegon’s Conquest to the main continuity are Dany, Aerea and Nettles. Jaehaera has a male dragon, but she never rides him and one Jaenara Belaerys who flew the dragon Terrax in Old Valyria. Other than that, female dragonriders have female dragons and are tied to the fertility of dragons. It's also notable that pregnancy is not typically afforded to female dragonriders with male dragons

Dany loses Rhogo, and Nettles is notably without a kid that we know of by the end of her story. Jaehaera is married to Aegon but dies before they have kids. Aerea dies before she is married. And we don't know much else about Jaenara Belaerys other than she flew further than anyone has in Sothoryos.

Another strange thing is that with Dany and Netty, the threat of a potential child from them instigated an active threat to their lives from the rulers of Westeros at the time.

What I'm saying is that I think Nettles might be the last Dragonrider and her death, not just Targaryens unable to hatch them after the dance, Rhaenyra’s death and or the Maester conspiracy by themselves lead to the death of a lot of the magic and Dany is the catalyst for its return. There's the blood magic tie in to their unique bonds with their dragons as well, but that can be a separate post.

All in all, it's just a fun little thing I've noticed.

[atopvisenyashill]

was thinking about how jacaerys would handle naming his kids. they have it spelled out that jacaerys will take the name targaryen once rhaenyra is queen and jacaerys takes up his seat as crown prince of dragonstone, which makes me think he'd go for a targaryen name. that + the general issues surrounding his identity, and baela being a born targaryen, also make me feel he'd lean towards a targaryen name. even in the scenario where he somehow wins the dance with his mother and is married to sara snow (i cannot even begin to explain why that would never happen though), i think sara herself would likely push for as targaryen a name as they can think of, again to drive home the point that their children are Rhaenyra's heirs. i was thinking

for girls:

rhaenys -> it's a way to honor his velaryon heritage, pick a targaryen name, and also drive home the point that jacaerys himself is a true targaryen; he has the name, he has the seat, he has a dragon, he has a dragon riding wife, and now he has a daughter named for a conqueror.

rhae -> simple, sweet, very targaryen, and he can say he's named her for like half the women in his house - rhaena the black bride, his cousin rhaena, rhaenys the conqueror, rhaenys velaryon, and even his own mother.

jaenara/jaenerys -> this is a name of an old dragonrider from house belaerys (went extint during the doom). i'm kinda fuzzy on whether the dragon riders all share names or if they're family specfiic (like the way a lot of areas have Region Specific Names but also Family Specific Names - think like Joffrey vs Boremund) so if it is region specific (as in dragon riders shared names but non dragon riding valyrians had their own) I think it would appeal; kinda similar to jacaerys and jaehaerys, very targaryen-ish. if it's not dragon rider esque and house specific, i'm assuming jaenerys is the Targaryen form of it, and I just think Jacaerys would want to name his daughters - his daughters esp given the succession issues they just dealt with - dragon rider names.

shaena/shaera -> not only is it a very neutral name - no one else so far has had it or anything like it, man or woman - but it's a bit similar to 'sara' and i thought jacaerys might like the idea of his daughter having a targaryen-ified version of his wife's name.

valaena -> it's a velaryon name so while i don't think he would give it to his first born daughter, if he had a few daughters, i think he might want a velaryon name as a way of honoring his father's house, and his grandsire corlys. i also think baela would love the idea of having a daughter with a velaryon name, and valaena being the mother of the conquerors makes it a good choice.

for boys

baelor -> ngl if i was jacaerys, baela, or sara, i would simply refuse to name my kid baelon as i'd feel the name was cursed lmao. we have baelon the brave who dies before he can take up the crown which causes a massive rift in the family, and then aemma dying for a son named baelon only for that baelon to die immediately anyways. baelor is a nice way to honor viserys, rhaenyra, and baelon the brave without sticking the kid with a cursed ass name. although baelor is very close to baela, so if he did marry sara snow and make her queen, he's not choosing this one, i think he would (rightly) worry it would be seen as a sleight towards baela and the velaryons.

aerys -> it's not a name that's been used by the targaryen kings at that point and i think the newness of it would really appeal; like a fresh start for the dynasty almost, the way daeron & myriah play it by using incredibly valyrian, but all new names for their brood.

valerion -> jae & aly used this for one of their babies that died in the cradle, but i think it’s a very distinguished name, and sounds like it could be a velaryon or targaryen name, which i think would appeal to jacaerys - and sara as well, actually, i think a bastard girl would understand the tightrope they’re walking here, & would want jacaerys to acknowledge his velaryon side for appearances sake at least.

maelys/maekar -> he can’t use maelor because aegon 2 & helaena used that one (and regardless of what happens to get jacaerys the throne, i can’t see him purposefully attempting to call to mind the targtowers). i have no reason for this one besides i just really like these names lmao. they’re very targaryen, very strong names, and i just think they sound cool!!!!!

daemion -> i think baela would love to name one of her sons after her father, and i can see jacaerys being talked into it (not for a first born though) despite the issues between jace & daemon.

[amoratearte]

I am sorry to bother, but I am so confused about the Valyrian Fourteen, is this your version? Isnt Terrax and Tessarion male in the canon material? I cant find Perzys???

Just confirm for me, this isnt canon?

Hi! This is my version and it’s fanon. As for canon, there’s no canon. There are other fanon versions of the Valyrian Fourteen (realistically, we don’t even know if there were only fourteen, or just main fourteen, or if there fourteen were just the flames/volcanoes), I did research before starting, there’s one in a Role-playing Wiki (Iron Throne Roleplay) and a few others I remember finding on Reddit where people made up for a fanfic or something. But none of them are canon. The only thing that is canon about the Valyrian Pantheon is Balerion, Vhagar and Meraxes, as well as Syrax, were said to be named after the gods and goddesses of the Valyrian pantheon.

One of the things I noticed from the Wiki, for instance, was how Syrax was the God of wine, but in Fire and Blood, it was said Syrax was a Goddess, so while I kept her as a Dionysus/Demeter inspired deity, I made her a Goddess. I know Ewan Mitchell has said Vhagar was named after the Valyrian Goddess of War and it seems to be a popular head canon, but there’s no information about which Gods they were or even if Vhagar was a woman. Vhagar was either a Valyrian God or a Goddess, but we don’t know of what, same with Balerion, Meraxes and Syrax.

I chose to base my Valyrian Pantheon on the Twelve Olympians, plus a few other Greek Gods, such as Persephone, and Gaia/Rhea and Uranus/Cronus.

For the names, I used most of the dragon names that sounded Valyrian, besides the canon ones we know came from Gods and Goddesses. Then it was missing two. I used Terrax because Terra means Earth, so it’s a good name for the Gaia inspired Goddess and because there was a dragon called Terrax, who belonged to Jaenara Belaerys, from another dragon lord family. As for Perzys, I was feeling lazy to think of something better, and it’s the Valyrian word for fire.

If GRRM ever talks about them, I might redo the portraits accordingly, but i do like my fanon lore :)

Seeing eyes of the future and love

Daenys ,,the dreamer” x Lady Belaerys!reader

warning : comfort, fluff, kiss, reader flies the dragon Terraxes and she is a descendant of Jaenara Belaerys, no use of Y/n

Summary : Dreams, dragon dreams magical and little known like the story of her homeland. Daenys finds herself with the Lady of House Belaerys to laugh, to talk, to read, to try to avoid the gaze of the higher lords but above all to fly together to a future in which they survive.

info : I love Daenys and Terrax with his rider Jaenara all three are just so fine plus Gaemon is a plus poinz and now have fun reading and see you next time :)

Dragons, secrets of ancient Valyria and dragon dreams things that happened an empire that had lived, dragons by the hundreds if not thousands drawn from magic and creatures there was a family of wealth and influence that would surpass anything three hundred years later.

But most of all there were the Targaryens a smaller family looked down upon yet proud of their heritage bright hair, violet eyes with five dragons they were gods in Olympus. In the family around Aenar and his two children Gaemon and Daenys, there was not much to tell in the history lost over hundreds of years in which fire and blood had reigned.

But in dreams, in dreams of the violet eyes of the highborn Lady Daenys, lost in time, there were words of other family, of relationships and trade between two dragons who offered each other something in a time when it could be the last.

The family of the Velaryons and the single case of the Belaerys family, the highborn family exactly at the level of the Targaryens, were supposed to have a time together, but only those who were born in this time of blood would know all this.

The daughter's violet eyes gazed from the high railing adorned with sphynix and fire at the city below and above her, the sounds of metal forging, books being turned and Valyrian speech echoing everywhere while dragon wings could be heard roaring and screeching.

Sounds she had known all her life, sounds together with the fine instruments of the servants, sounds she had always judged, whenever her gaze was caught by fire and stars and her dreams were blown away like winds.

But most of all, she had a dream when she looked at the mountains and felt the heat, saw the dracen flying skelts that would flee to the ground like the screams of the people. Tightening her grip on the railing, she let out a sigh, trying to enjoy the sounds again as she flinched when she felt a hand snaft on hers, ,,Dear sister, the Lady Belaerys has arrived,” Gaemon said, violet eyes gazing at her comfort, asking her in silence if all was well, which she replied with a nod.

They knew each other, they were the blood of the dragon the devotion and comfort they offered each other was something she appreciated. Before she took his hand and he led her up the spiral staircase to the expansive terrace where torches and candles burned, it was something they all liked, it gave them healing and comfort.

Gazing into the golden sky, drenched in sunlight, she saw the dragon approach, a relatively young beast a few decades old, on whose back the Lady Belaerys, a woman of about the same age, looked, the last representative of her house after the death of her ancestor, the fearless Jaenara, her house seemed to have only bad luck.

Illnesses and deaths quickly killed all relatives, but it was rumored, no, it was just known that the high family used any means to gain knowledge and those who could not defend themselves suffered, but of course this was all speculation. The dark black and green dragon with slightly purple scales landed on the rock in the light, sniffed the animal and shook itself slightly before letting its rider dismount.

,,A pleasure to see my honorable friends again I hope you have fared well?” she guessed and gathered her childhood friends and allies into an embrace the scent of flame surrounded them all even if the Targaryen dragon were small they were not yet big enough to ride they had a growing Balerion.

Listening to Gaemon's nods and short stories, her violet eyes found those of Daenys who looked at the older one with a shy smile, a certain something always lay between the three of them.

Perhaps it was openness, perhaps it was devotion but above all it was a bond with Daenys whose hand was taken by her, ,,We're back for dinner Gaemon I'll take care of her...and thank your father for the coins…it saved me from the fire” she said and saw the young man's serious nod and slight bow before he disappeared into the palace and she was left alone with Daenys.

Placing a hand gently on the Targaryen's cheek, violet eyes gazed at each other, ,,You grow more beautiful with every dream,” she confessed, seeing her Targaryen love's gaze fall in shame as Daenys clasped her hand tighter.

It was a gentle love between them, Daenys seemed to need her and Terrax, while she needed Daenys, her heart belonged to the young Targaryen, ,,Shall we?” she asked and Tarrax took a few steps towards them.

The dragon mumbled his head to Daenys and seemed happy to see her again before they both rose up one by one and she sat behind Daenys to give her a better feeling while flying the Valyrian words spilled from the mourner's lips and Terrax rose up with a screech before flying away from the terrace and up over the city.

Away from the people, away from the noises and up into the sky through the clouds above, ,,You always like it up here my dear” she commented and her hands gently held Daenys' who seemed to be completely relaxed up here.

Where the sun was and with them and the clouds below them, ,,Yes it is peaceful and I can think in peace not distracted by Valyria” Daenys replied and her light purple dress blew in the wind a contrast to her own dark green lilac.

Valyria as much as they both loved their home, they both knew it would soon be over in barely a decade, ,,Did you have another dream my star?” she asked and placed a soft chaste kiss on the neck of the one sitting in front of her, feeling the brief flinch followed by an audible giggle as her wings beat.

Daenys shook her head, ,,No a few yes but not of our belnagen dreams of dancing dragons and ice something that happened hundreds of years ago and our bones became dragons,” she murmured and looked behind her, the dreamer's gaze radiating a certain sadness, a sadness about the fate of dragon blood.

But above all, she radiated a sense of reverence. she took the elder's hand and stroked it, ,,But they are only dreams and now we are the ones who exist i can truly see you,” she murmured and leaned towards her before the two women shared a gentle kiss and two flames rode against each other and Terrax happily twitched and emitted flames.

They continued the flight for a little while Terrax flew her way alone, they met other dragonriders and exchanged a few words, but most of the time they kept to themselves, their hands never letting go and Daenys leaned against the others' upper bodies, cuddling and happy to be held.

While gentle kisses were exchanged and valiant confessions of love and affection were exchanged between them, they talked about dreams of love and intimacy.

They both knew that together with Gaemon and their father they would fly and sail into a future full of love, a future in which they were truly free until the day they flew back to Valyria in death.

Jaenara Balaerys and her dragon Terrax.

Helooooo Lena the loveliest❤️🤍 Dropping in to ask you what dragons @barbieaemond and I are? Since you are obviously our 👑 Vhagar

I AM LITERALLY SITTING HERE LIKE

Okay, okay, so, for you? I would go with Dreamfyre or Moondancer

I mean, Moondancer fits your aesthetic with sea foam colour, but Dreamfyre matches your artistic personality. It is a choice between the riders then, and you strike me more like a person who would get along better with Helaena and Rhaena, so I would go for Dreamfyre more ahahbdneks

She is etherial just like you

Aa for @barbieaemond . . .

Very obvious choice would be Meleys the Red Queen, but I can do better than that and actually... I think Liv matches one ancient dragon that I always though was super cool more

Terrax is the dragon of my choice because it matches the endless pool of creativity, personality and depth Liv has as a person and creator. Terrax flew as far as the world in ASOIAF goes with his rider Jaenara Belaerys back when Old Valyria was still standing and, not going to lie, both of them remind me of Liv so much

So, here you have it 💖🤭

Jaenara Belaerys and Terrax

This is a bit out there, but stick with me. I think Nettles, alongside Rhaenyra, have a lot of Paralles to Daenerys when it comes to the story.

The proof:

1. Both female dragonriders with male dragons.

This one may seem a bit on the nose, but it happens five times in the entire story. Once is before the doom, and the other time is with Jaehaera, who never gets to ride her dragon and Aerea, who rides her dragon but dies young and in agony . As opposed to the eight times female dragons have male riders in canon.

2. They have the strangest bonds of any dragonrider. Dany obviously hatches her dragons from stone eggs with blood magic and then proceeds to breastfeed them. Those are her babies.

But unlike any other dragonrider or dragonseed, Netty feeds her dragon each morning until it allows her to it. It's worth noting that the only time we come close to this similar description is with the way Dragons were first tamed in Old Valyria.

3. Their Fertility. It's notable that Dany loses her only baby(ies if that's what you believe) in the story while Nettles is speculated to potentially be able to have a child which is never really brought up outside of that potential. It seems to be a theme with the male dragon/ female dragonriders plot. We don't know about Jaenara Belaerys, but Jaehaera dies before she is old enough to have kids.

4. Their Fertility II. At the time of their fertility plots, their children are a threat to the leaders of Westeros. A big part of Mysaria's speech is that Nettles could have a kid with Daemon, which causes Rhaenyra to send for her head. while Robert understands the direct threat of a "Targaryen at the Head of a Dothraki Army" with the potential of Dany's son to claim the seven kingdoms.

4:5. They are both unlike any Targaryen before them. From bonds to birth and in Nettles case looks. They are different from the other Targaryens/ Valarians in their narratives.

5. Lastly, their blood magic plots.

Dany uses blood magic to hatch her dragons. That is exactly what happens. With Nettles, however, the blood magic is speculative. The way she slaughters the biggest ram in Maidenpool before leaving is the best example but also the way she tames her Dragon as stated by Rhaenyra, is with charms, the same ones she uses to tame Daemon, I guess. Blood magic is also closely linked to Old Valyria.

Someone just added the parallel of both girls not taking part in Valyrian culture for most of their lives. Also, they both join other cultures, the Dothraki and Burned men, respectfully. Nettles is worshiped as a deity, and Dany performed a miracle.

All in all, I think it would be a cool thing that may allude to Nettles being the last dragon rider.

Context: Rhaenyra's Death, Maester Conspiracy, Disappearing of Magic and Nettles Potential Death are all connected to bring the death of powerful magic in Westeros Something that shifts when Dany Hatches her dragons from Stone and brings magic back. This is the theory part.

It's great to also note that we don't have a lot of information when it comes to Nettles, so from what little we have with her, this is the ways their stories tie in. Not an exact parallel between them.

Girl Dad Daemon Fic Spoilers (so a cut), but I need to get all this in one place:

Alyssa: King’s Landing Prostitute (Lysene), Silverwing. Born in 100. Named by Daemon after his mother. Daemon wanted her raised in the Red Keep with Rhaenyra, but Otto isn’t having Daemon’s bastards raised there, so she was shipped off to Dragonstone. Claimed Silverwing in 112. After her birth and the fallout with a Daemon vs Otto argument, Jaehaerys sends Daemon on a tour of the free cities, which results in:

Jaenara: ____ Belaerys (Volantene), Vermithor. Born in 102. Named by her mother after Jaenara Belaerys. Keeps a reasonable relationship with her mother’s family, largely splitting her time between Dragonstone and Volantis pretty evenly, especially after claiming Vermithor in 112. Is a bit of a hothead and claimed a dragon that young because her sister just did so she wants to as well, damit. 

Visenya: Pentosi Magister’s Daughter, Dreamfyre (yes, I’m stealing Helaena’s dragon). Born in 107, in such a way that Daemon kind of uses her birth to take attention away from Alicent’s Aegon. Named by Rhaenyra at several months old because Daemon was fresh out of names. Shipped off to Dragonstone to join the rest of Daemon’s bastards, though because Rhaenyra always wants to see her (the other two took one sniff of King’s Landing air and demanded to go straight back to Dragonstone) so she’s around King’s Landing enough to basically steal Dreamfyre out from under Helaena’s nose in 120. Of all Daemon’s brats, she succeeds her father as the devil incarnate in the eyes of the Greens. Rhaenyra’s favorite for similar reasons.

Daenys: Mysaria? (haven’t decided for sure yet), but rumors are spread that she’s Rhaenyra’s (she’s not). Born in 112. Clouddancer. Named by Alyssa and Jaenara, because Daemon still sucks as names. The only one to get a cradle egg, which hatches into twin dragons that go everywhere with Daenys - in the castle etc. Rides Clouddancer, but Shadowdancer likes her kind of in the way Viserion and Rhaegel do to Dany. Mostly banished to Dragonstone because Daemon is not supposed to bring his kids around anymore after the grief Visenya has been causing. Kind of a racist against Andals or those with Andal blood, even by the standards of the Targaryens. Fucks around with black magic for fun. Generally a bit creepy. Gets sent off to Volantis/Pentos a few times because she does _not_ get along with Rhaenyra’s eldest three (due to her being a racist and thinking they have andal blood). Rhaenyra is not a fan. 

Opinions on the dance of the dragons:

Alyssa: Yes of course I’m going to help my father and my friend Rhaenyra kill their enemies.

Jaenara: Well normally I would just sit in Volantis, this isn’t my war, but I can’t let Alyssa take all the glory.

Visenya: WHOOOOO! YEAHHH! Let’s go murder some Greens!

Daenys: Yes, let’s go kill the halfbreeds.
