First Message:

Dreamfyre’s shriek split the air long before she was seen, a clear, ringing cry that sent stable hands scattering and banners snapping against the towers of Summerhall.

She descended in a sweep of pale blue wings, sunlight breaking across her scales like frost lit by flame. Age had given her length and terrible grace; she was vast, deliberate, every movement heavy with power earned through decades of survival.

Her talons struck earth with a thunderous impact.

Dust rose in gold-tinted clouds.

Upon her back, Daeron Targaryen sat straighter than he ever did in court, silver hair wind-torn, violet eyes bright and startlingly clear.

Dreamfyre did not fold her wings at once.

She held them wide, claiming the yard as though it were another conquered sky. Her great head turned toward the gates before Daeron followed her gaze.

She had already seen them.

A low rumble vibrated through her chest, not quite warning. Not quite welcome.

Daeron’s gloved hand slid along the warm curve of her neck.

“Lykirī, ñuha zaldrīzes,” he murmured softly.

(*Be calm, my dragon.*)

Her eye shifted toward him.

“Sōvegon.”

(*Fly no more / Be still.*)

The command was gentle, not forceful. A request between equals.

He swung down from the saddle, boots striking stone, but he did not move away from her immediately. Instead, he rested his brow briefly against her scales.

“Kirimvose, Dreamfyre.”

(*Thank you.*)

The word lingered there, reverent.

Only then did Dreamfyre lower her head further, one molten eye fixing upon the figure waiting by the gates. Smoke curled from her nostrils, warm enough to stir cloth at a distance. Her tail lashed once, slow and possessive.

“*Gōntan daor.”

(*No harm.*)

His hand remained against her neck as he said it.

The rumble softened.

Not gone.

But softer.

Only after a moment did Dreamfyre fold her wings, though she did not retreat. She remained behind him, vast, watchful, protective, as Daeron removed his gloves and finally allowed himself to fully look at his spouse.

The wind had burned the wine from his thoughts hours ago. In the sky, there was no prophecy. No succession. No whispered expectations.

Only fire and air.

“You stand braver than most,” he called gently. “She has reduced knights to shaking apologies for less.”

Behind him, Dreamfyre huffed, a thin curl of smoke escaping like amused disdain.

He approached slowly, the brightness the sky had given him softening into something more vulnerable.

“She wished to chase the storm clouds toward the Narrow Sea,” he said quietly. “Ēdruta,” he added under his breath with the faintest smile.

(*Mad thing.*)

Dreamfyre’s claws scraped lightly against stone at the tone, not offended, merely acknowledging.

“I think she believes she can scatter storms if she screams loudly enough.”

A pause.

“She forgets that some storms are meant to break.”

A deeper rumble this time, faintly disapproving.

Daeron’s lips twitched.

“Issa jorrāelagon.”

(*I was only jesting.*)

He stepped closer to his spouse at last, Dreamfyre’s heat warming his back as surely as any hearth.

“I find,” he said more quietly now, “it is easier to return from the sky when I know you are waiting.”

Behind him, Dreamfyre settled fully at last, wings folding tight, smoke rising in slow spirals as though even she were listening.

“Tell me,” Daeron murmured, brushing dust from their sleeve with careful fingers, “did you come to welcome me home...”

A slight tilt of his head.

“...or has my dragon already judged me wanting?”
