- First Moon, 132 ACBaelaHer heart pounded in her chest as they flew through the darkness. The only thing lighting their way was the full moon in the sky above and the glow of the glass candles in their saddles as they scryed their enemies and communicated with their allies.

- Third Moon, 132 ACRhaenysHow did it come to this? That was the question Rhaenys had asked herself every waking moment since that day. How had it all gone so wrong?

Her dragon was gone and even her very body had been all but destroyed.

High Tide, Chapter 38: Reunion
ViserraFirst Moon, 100 ACThe ride over to Dragonstone was not long. The island was visible from the highest tower of High Tide, and a dragon covered the distance in little more than five and ten minutes. Her first instinct had been to take Laena and Daeron to ride with her on Dreamfyre, like they’d taken them when they rode the horses. However, her two youngest children had begged and cajoled her to let them ride their dragons and she had begrudgingly relented after ensuring they were strapped and…- 463.2 K • Completed
