.......
After a long journey which has taken seven days.. Yana and Spinel reach the beginning of the area they have to search for the royal offspring.. of indetermined age and description.. and their dragons. As the pair coast over the field at a height to be able to see details of dragons and people they look out for a male and female with two dragons.
Yana touches the pouch on the side of her saddlebags that holds the missive and sighs softly 'Do you see any of your kind Spinel? If our departure wasn't so rushed I would have prefered to get a better description of the pair and theor dragons, I don't even know how old they are, however given that His Highness said they were on diplomatic mission I'm guessing more towards adulthood than infancy..'

Yana can see a group of dragons in the distance. Since she knows nobody else outside of Westeros has dragons, they have to be the ones she is searching for.

Yana sees the dragons, Spinel.. over there.' Spinel snorts in reply, 'Shall we go deliver it then?' Spinel heads towards the dragons and lands a short distance fom them in her usual fashion of a steep dive, stoops, then softly lands with barely a sound, Yana slides off and putting her bag over her shoulder, gives Spinel a pat, the pair then walk over to the group.

Rhaena saw the dragon of Yana approach and stood from where she was sat back against Tyraxes side. She hadn't seen that dragon before or it's rider, and so said nothing as they approached, looking the dragon and rider upside down.
When the approached properly, Tyraxes stood and wrapped his tail round rhaena's legs. "Greetings. I assume you are from Kings Lamding?"

Yana nods 'Greetings M'Lady.. I am searching for Her Highness and His Highness the daughter and son of King Maegor.. Are you her? Or might you know where I might find them? I am sorry, but the only description His Majesty gave me was that I would find them as being the ones with the dragons..' Yana lays a gental hand on Spinel as she looks over the group, and the other dragons.. not really having much seen other dragons before and certianly not this close..

"He did not even tell you their names?" She asked incredulously, "I am Princess Rhaena. My father sent you?" she went on, raising an eyebrow. For why?"

Yana shrugs slightly 'He was a little preoccupied..' She offers the wax sealed missive, unopened and untampered with. 'I presented myself at court, made it known I was looking for work and later that evening he bid me to bring this as fast as Spinel could fly to his son and daughter.. when I asked exactly whom, he said they would be the ones with the dragons..'

Rhaena nodded and took the letter, opening it and looking at the woman. "What was he preoccupied with?" She asked absently as she started reading the letter.

Rhaena looked up briefly and shrugged in return, "I see... things..." she didn't much care if her father had bedded the bastard, he'd bedded all the others, w"Ho was the King when you left?"

Brandon raised one eyebrow watching the messenger approach from his position behind the Princess. Her accent suggested she was of North, as he had been. He wondered whose she was. A sister, a niece? Their damnable family tree was was more prickly and intertwined then a hedge row.

Rhaena started to smile and was about to reply when she finished the latter. It was as if she had suddenly been cast in stone. "We need to leave. Now." She said, looking back to the rest of their party, and passed the letter to The Lord commander, starting to get her things together . "Yana, the king gave that to you himself?"

Yana nods 'Yes Your Highness'
Yana frowns slightly I'm sure I already said that..

Rhaena looked round at her for a second, her own frown evident... "Were the rest of my family in kings Landing when you left? My mother... My half brothers? Are they all okay?" She asked.

Yana sounds slightly puzzled at the question 'I landed in the dragon pit, met her majesty the queen in the pit.. I can only guess that she might be your mother? I was not informed if she was or not.. She directed me to attend court to introduce myself, his majesty the king spoke to me in the throne room, then later sent word for me to attend in his chambers.. The only other relative I can be sure that I met was Lady Vira as she invited me for dinner and we met at I was speaking to the queen in the pit.. I cannot say I did not see any of your family for I was never told whom they might be if they were anywhere I went that day.. I apologise your highness but I do not know any thing more precise, I was in kings landing but a little more than a day before I left again'

"Okay, thank you. Vira is not a relative of mine, but the whore of my half brother's, Lord Maekar Dracaryn. Did she mention if he was still in the capital?" She didn't suppose she'd know of Trajan. "I know I am asking a lot, but I need to know. " rhaena packed up the last if her things onto Tyraxes things. Leaving unimportant things left on the floor.

Yana shakes her head 'there was no talk of the royal family between us.. I know nothing more.. I have room on Spinel and am going back to kings landing if you need packing room?'

"It's not that, but thank you, we need to get back. Thank you for not opening the letter, your honesty will be remembered.
" rhaena said to her, smiling distractedly at her, waiting for the others to hurry. "You cannot have had tamed him long ago, I'd have known it if you were a rider before we left , they can't just pop up." Rhaena said, "congratulations. I have not heard of him before though, spinel."

Laena, standing by, had gone very pale when Yana produced the letter. Her fingers twitched impatiently as she waited for the Lord Commander to read it. It was plain she wished to snatch it out of his fingers.

Yana gives Spinel a fond smile and a rubs her snout 'Spinel and I met and bonded about four years ago utterly by random chance when she was a tiny scrap of a thing, I was not even aware at the time that I was on Dragonstone, and became her rider more from accidental nessceeaty than by design. I have never been to kings landing before just over a week ago.. So perhaps it does just happen sometimes?' Yana then says perhaps a little modestly, but more really that as if its just how things are,'I was bid to deliver the letter your Highness, not read it so it is only how it should be that it reaches your hand in the same condition that it left His Majestys.' Yana nods to aknowledge the compliment on her work.
Yana eyes Laena's nervousness and reaction in her usual silent, filing it away unnoticed manner That one bears watching.. Somethings not right about her going pale and twitching like that'
'Would you like for me to fly back with your entourage Your Highness since our destination is the same or do you prefer me to find my own way back?'

"By all means return with us, makes no sense to not, " Rhaena said, face impassive for a moment before and took the time to pick up some more of her stuff, annoyed the others were taking so long. "What did you make of lady vira?" Rhaena ventured to Make conversation with the new rider.

Yana guestures to the gear being packed 'Might I help?' She conciders the question 'Ladt Vira seems pleasent and friendly, the food was simple and tasty, the conversation was light, She was a good hostess'

Brandon scanned the letter. "It seems treason is like the plague. You can be the healer only so long before you too are infected." He handed the letter back to the princess.

"If you would," she said with a smile, though I would not approach Tyraxes, he lets no one near him but me." She said and touched his side, he ducked his head, and this time tapped his heads to Rhaena's, more friendly than he had been most of the trip. "He and I were born together, I have been his rider since the day he was born, it was also the day I was born. Seventeen years in December." She said with a small smile, and pressed her cheek to his neck. "It will not be a leisurely flight back, we need to hurry" Brandon scanned the letter. "It seems treason is like the plague. You can be the healer only so long before you too are infected." He handed the letter back to the princess. "What I do not know is why father sent a letter warning us, rather than deal with it himself." She passed the note to Laena. |
