Aemma noted Amanda by her side pulling her arm gently.
-Don’t take Elys’s words to heart. She was always terribly jealous of your mother, and now I fear such sentiment has been passed over to you. – she smiled openly. – Princess Daella was a kind woman, a good woman. I was very fond of her.
Aemma returned her smile but said nothing in turn. What could she say of a mother she had not met? She did ask, however, what colour a gown she should wear when meeting with Prince Viserys.
-Purple. – her sister said at once. – To bring out the purple in your eyes and so that everyone there knows you are more than a lady from the Vale. You are a Targaryen.

Part of an art trade I did with the amazing @shrinkydinks2
I wish we had gotten some of Lady Florence Fossoway's interactions with Queen Alysanne.
I wish we knew if the Black Brides even interacted with each other, instead of just getting the feeling Maegor locked them away.
I wish we got more of the good days for Elissa and Rhaena before it turned bad.
I wish we knew more of Lady Jocasta Tarbeck's interactions with Rhaena while she was pregnant at Casterly Rock.
I wish we knew anything about Rhaenyra's ladies in waiting besides some of them were Strongs.
I wish we had more of Alyssa with her sisters. She stood up for Daella even though she was frightened of her older sister.
I wish we knew specifically why Saera's sisters disliked her. (Excluding Daella we had enough of Saera terrorizing her thank you)
I wish we had Jocelyn saying anything on page. Daella was fond of her, and Alysanne and Jaehaerys also seemed to enjoy her company later on. She and Aemon talked and laughed together, but we know nothing of what was said between them.
I wish we had more on the relationship between Daella and her stepdaughter Amanda who didn't spurn her like her elder sister Elys did.
I wish we knew what Jonquil Darke's service to Alysanne was like. Was she like Brienne? Was she like Jaime, Arthur, or Barristan? What was she personally like?
I wish we knew more of Alysanne's ladies, since she seemed to become friends with most of them. Like what happened to Alarra Stark during her service to the Queen?
I wish we got to see Laena interacting with her daughters. Did she take them flying on Vhagar?
I wish we had more women friendship in Fire and Blood.
I wish, I wish, I wish...
