“They were stolen from me in their cages,” Dany replied. She could hear echoes of their plaintive cries for her in her head, and it threatened to shatter her heart – but she had to go on. She would save them.

“They are dragons,” she said finally. “Still small, three of them, with cream, and black, and copper scales. You will probably hear them before you see them, but that will serve as their identification – the cries of dragons are heart wrenching.”

Dragons. Her children were dragons. Aegon looked at the silver haired woman still puzzled by her and where he was exactly. He couldn’t recall knowing any woman with dragons that held the familiar Targayren traits that called her dragons her children.

He got up from the makeshift bed, glad to see he still had his sword on him and walked from where the girl had come from. “They don’t sound too far” He mentioned as he waited for her to follow, drawing his sword in case he’d needed it. “I’m Aegon by the way.” His violet eyes glanced back before he continued forward towards the cries.

Once they were back inside, Relena was about to open her mouth but before a single sound could escape her lips, she already heard Viserys’ voice. She stopped walking, her head turning towards the man, listening to him explaining and excusing his behaviour, before she was even able to accuse him of anything. She tilted her head slightly upon realizing that plotting with the Targaryen would probably never be a good idea, for it seemed like he would confess far to easily, something that visibly amused the queen, for a smirk seemed to pull on the corner of her lips.

Once the silver haired man seemed to be done talking there was a long moment of silence between them, for she wondered what else he might be willing to confess to, if only she gave him the time, before Relena finally spoke herself. “I just wanted to inform you that we are not going to eat supper with my family today.”, she told him, the words slowly leaving her lips. “We are going to dine with my uncle, his wife and his daughter and Lord Stark and his daughters.”, the young woman added. “Stannis already dislikes you and he and my father never had a loving relationship, so he isn’t too fond of me either, so please be at your best behaviour, especially because he still owns the castle you want at the moment.”, the raven haired girl reminded him.

“And while we dine, you should not confess to inappropriate behaviour when no one has accused of it.”, she pointed out, a hint of amusement lingering in her voice. “…or perhaps you should not say anything else considering the amount that just left your mouth.”

Viserys was surprised to say the least that his concerns weren’t of any Relena shared, so as she stopped, he did as well. “Oh” he uttered, not entrierly unhappy about the turn of events. He’d hardly spoken with Stannis and his family but he knew of his dislike for him and the house he came from so it could only be just as bearable as dinner with Relena’s mother right?

“Out of the smoke and into the fire.” He replied with a shake of his head, the only good part about  this dinner was Lord Stark and his family and not to mention Stannis wouldn’t be just not fond of him but of Relena as well as it meant he wouldn’t be alone. “Of course. Best behavior is something I can easily do when it comes to dinner with family.”

He snorted at the idea of him not being ill-mannered at any dinner he may have been among the Dothraki and not fully brought up in court but it didn’t mean he lacked any social skill or manners. “Speak only when spoken to right?” He asked Relena with a playful tone. “It seems there is something more you want to speak to me about….do tell.” He leaned in a bit as he spoke and than slowly leaning away “I promise I won’t blather it about to anyone.”

Reign Season 4 Quotes

thestormlioness:

Men forget, that woman have ears.

My child will be heir to her throne, to both Nations.

This is a course you cannot step back from. And if you take it, I fear I am looking at a dead woman.

We all die. The question is what we stood for while we lived.

Have you already named our children? Or did you leave that part for me?

I did not expect to like you. But I do.

Earn my respect then, as I earn the respect of my men. In combat!

Duels only lead to dead men, not respect.

Fists then. A boxing match. If you win, I bend the knee. But if I win, you will withdraw your marriage offer to the Queen.

I let you win that race.

How dare you, didn’t you notice that I defied the queen of England for you!?

I’m going to be your husband.

I had a husband! and I loved him and he was murdered in cold blood before my eyes.

Before I met you, I loved someone. In that way that should’ve lasted a lifetime, but it didn’t.

Let the danger come.

You will be my husband in name only. And we will never be happy.

It is my duty, my God-given birthright and my crown. And I will defend it from anyone who attempts to take it.

I had hoped that our marriage would be a partnership in every way. but with your drinking, your cheating, your blind ambition…

I know we hardly know each other, and yet here I am, asking you to risk everything for me.

With or without your crown. I would do anything for you.

I made you King. But we will never be equals.

You can’t expect everyone to be glad you are back at Court, some of us know you.

He will hang. And I will enjoy watching him die.

I didn’t kill him, but justice needed to be done.

This vile act will not ease your pain!

Revenge is not meant to ease pain. It is meant to balance the scales.

He was an innocent man!

Men will never willingly bow to the weaker sex.

I put my trust in you, my Lord.

Well surely you don’t blame me.

How nice of you to take time out of your grievance to mock me.

What about the shame you’ve brought to this family? Not to mention this country and to God himself?!

I’ve learned never trust the beginning of a book.

I know this isn’t what you wanted, but for now, this marriage will protect you.

When the time is right, I can make you a widow.

We need to show them you are not a monster, by showing them what you really are. A King.

Perhaps I shall have your throat slit in your sleep. Or have the villagers do it for me when they come for us to root out the beast we have protected.

I should have your entire family burned at the stake.

He was born first! That’s all he has to do.

I have always put my children first. I have done terrible things! I have always done it for their good. But are they worth it?

Tell your son to come to court. Or I will have him dragged here. On his knees.

I will not be remembered as the Queen that drew first blood.

And I can’t bear to lose you.

Our affair puts you in danger.

I won’t ever tire of you.

He is a long-term confidante. A skilled advisor and diplomat, whose journeys, for the Crown, have met with spectacular success.

I represent something glorious, for everyone. And if you want to banish every person who is dazzled by me, we’ll be a nation of mainly women.

You are more precious to me than my nation.

Speak! While there is still mercy in my heart!

Now that I know how things really work around here. I’m interested in getting to know you better.

Why should I be interested in you?

I was starting to think you didn’t have it in you.

But let me offer some advice: next time you threaten someone, make sure you have proof. A theory is nothing more than a feather.

I am on no one’s side, but my own.

Get out of my Court!

It’s fine. A daughter joining her mother for an evening stroll is hardly a crime.

The tears might be a bit much.

In a year, everything will be different. I’ll have an heir.

I won’t fall in love with him. I promise!! Please have faith in me.

I was almost sent to a nunnery for following my heart!

I am married to the most powerful man in the world.

Stop starting at me witch!

Bastards and cheaters are not welcome on the Throne.

You will have love or an heir, but not both.

Lie to me again, and I will open you up right here, in your own house.

If you have a baby that isn’t yours, you’ll hang, unless you cooperate.

thestormlioness:

Relena was walking though the halls of the Red Keep, accompanied by one of her least favourite uncles, Stannis. Had the Lord of Dragonstone not finally agreed to meet with her to talk about his property she would have despised the sudden arrival of winter, but at least something kept him in the capital long enough to talk, for everyone knew that the eldest stag wasn’t too fond of most that recited within the red stone walls. They were just walking by a window, when the young queen heard strange sounds coming from the royal gardens. She took a quick glance outside, finding her fiancé play with the two princes’, while it was quite adorable in her opinion, she was certain that Stannis, who was already disapproving of the idea of having a Targaryen king again, wouldn’t take his future king acting like a child too kindly, something even she would have to admit when looking from his point of few. Therefore, the raven haired woman quickly stepped in front of the window, trying to hide what was happening down there, while trying to think of a way to politely send him back to his chambers, where he wouldn’t be able to see them.

Once her uncle was out of sight, Relena went back to her own chambers, quickly putting on her fur cloak and a pair of gloves, before making her way towards the gardens. The young woman had just arrived at the scene of the spectacle, when she opened her mouth, to make her presence known, when suddenly a snowball hit her in the face. She had no idea where exactly it had come from, or who had thrown at, the only thing she knew was that one of her ladies, who were standing behind her, was currently doing her best not laugh. Relena took a deep breath and removed the snow, which had stuck to her head, as good as she could, before clearing her throat to get the men’s attention.

“As much as I hate to spoil the fun.”, the raven haired girl said, chunks of snow still falling down her hair and cloak. “But I would like to have a word with my fiancé.”, she explained to her brothers, before her eyes fell upon Viserys. As soon as these words were uttered, the queen turned around, to walk back to the castle, hoping he would follow. She was not too fond of the cold, after all, she, like most people in the Red Keep, were born during the long summer, therefore snow was far from being something she was used to and even further away from something enjoyable, for when she was a child, her septa was always quick to usher her away from any cold.

The snowball war had happened so fast and ended so quickly but he had no idea which of their snowballs hit the Queen but he tried to not laugh as he saw her face as the snow fell from her fine features and by the tone in his voice sent a chill down his spine and he suddenly felt like a boy again, in trouble for something by his mother.

Viserys looked over at the boys, surprised to see what he could only assume was a smile on Joffrey’s face and he almost didn’t follow Relena as he stared at the Eldest Prince before his face twisted into a more common frown that Viserys was used to seeing. He caught up to Relena as she went inside the keep and he wasn’t quite sure what it had to be about but he could only guess it was about his behaviour as ‘king’ and playing in the snow. “Tommen was wanting to enjoy the snow and at first Joffrey was not willing to and the look on your brothers face…It reminded me of when I would not allow Daenerys a simple childish pleasure…” He tried to explain, unsure of what to say.

“Is something else wrong?” he asked, worried something else was troubling Relena and not just his actions. “Something about the council or family? Is Dany okay? Are you alright?” He mind was going all over the place before it settled again back on the first idea and most certainly the right answer. “Or you’re upset with me because I’m acting childish and I shouldn’t do so and act more like an adult…?”

Isyla fell into him, even in times she was stubborn in her convictions it was impossible to resist it. A body felt at home, right where it was meant to be and she buried her face in his chest. Her lips trailing over his forehead and cheeks.

“I know you will, I don’t doubt that. I sometimes fear to lose you again and I simply couldn’t bear it.” 

He sighed happily as he felt her kiss his face and how he longed to stay and not fight. Stay with his wife and child but he knew deep in his heart he couldn’t do that to the Starks and all that they did for him. “I’ll be back before you know it.” He told her before he gave a laugh at an idea “Unless you broke both my legs right before I left”

Hymn to Anubis

godsofsandandwater:

To Anubis whose work is the care of the dead, I offer my praise.
O god of the graveyard, great god of the tomb,
preserver of Osiris, protector of Horus the child,
bearer of the scale, counter of hearts, balancer against
the feather of Ma’at, you lead us into the Duat,
the life after life in which we may dwell in peace and plenty,
in which we may be reborn among those we have loved,
our dearest ones in whose steps we hope to follow,
to whose arms we hope to return. O guardian and guide
of souls, O foremost of the Western gods, Anubis
who leads us into the necropolis, who carries us
from world into world, Anubis who opens that sacred way,
Abubis who is ancient of name and ancient of might,
speaker of spells and granter of breath, I honor you,
O friend of the departed; I thank you for your many gifts.
