--- || THE young dragon sits
with the rest of the khalasar, quiet as
the dothraki marvel at her while her
siblings fly in the sky. surely, she
would have joined them - but the
thought of shifting after yesterday’s
play fight went too far sounded a
bit too painful for her liking. no matter,
she was content with being where
she was - sitting in the grass, with
the hot sun on her face. the humans
were sweating but rhaegal thrived on
it.
she watched as her mother approached,
unsure of what she had been up to, but
also aware that if she wanted her to know,
she would. a smile in greeting permeates
the dragoness’ features, shining in her
deep, hypnotic green hues.
her greeting is followed by her standing
to her feet, and the khalasar whisper to
one another in dothraki - it is too lowly
spoken for her to fully understand, and
she is still learning. whilst she looks
as though she is older than daenerys,
she is but a mere child in human years.
the benefits of her species, fast growth
and long years - gods be good, they
would see many, many years.
the confession comes with a slight
shyness, but not so much that it is
detectable. she may be a dragon,
but her mother will always be able
to bring out the most infantile
emotions from deep within her. a
longing, a willingness to please,
a protectiveness unbreakable.
after all, without the all too rightful
queen they would not have hatched
from their prison-like eggs. she
brought them forth. rhaegal was
all too aware of this. to her, she
felt they owed her the world and
then some.
the dragon’s gratitude and love,
like her loyalty, was unending... || ---
