FOR OVER FOUR CENTURIES, he haswalked amongst the living. His time, his people, was all lost in theDoom and for reasons that he could only speculate since then; VaedarValarys remains alive. Once a dragon rider, his mount died and hewashed ashore days afterwards alone, feeling the emptiness in hismind of his life long companion GONE. The grief was MERCILESS in itsgrip on him but he survived because he was either too brave or toocowardly to take his own life and it’s after a decade transpired,with no change in his physique, that he began to feel something waswrong. Then another decade and another, until they merged into acentury—time seemed to be frozen for him. There was nothing leftfor the once dragonlord but to follow the remnants of the world hebelonged to, the one he should’ve died along with it.
The Targaryenssurvived through out the centuries until a war threatened to destroythem into extinction as they had to their dragons. He was a traveler,acquiring so much knowledge about the world and its events that hewondered how his mind was capable of storing it all. But always, hewould look to the Targaryens so he knew what the heir, a prince bythe name of Rhaegar, had done and what became of a bastard child hehad with a northerner. Her people took the babe but instead ofreturning north, they continued their venture south to a place calledStarfall. So in his pursuit, hoping to learn what is to become of thebastard babe, he followed and was welcomed by one of the saddestsights he’s seen in his long years.
A woman, her dress trailing afterher as she threw herself from a high tower. ❛ Leave her be, ❜Vaedar warns to himself for every time he’s tried to intervenebefore, only tragedy was the result. And yet, against his betterjudgement, it’s to the bottom of that tower that he goes. Her bodywas propped between two large boulders, the water of the riversplashing against them and it would not be long before the tide risesand takes her away. ❛ She’s dead, she has to be, ❜ andregardless, the man dives in and retrieves her body.
There’s apulse—she’s alive, somehow.
