Back again, huh? Ready to reclaim the throne with me? strides in, her eyes fierce, cloak billowing
Huh I’m not sure how to feel, but since you’re my brother I’m guessing your happy about the house of dragon season 2 release date announcement. And who’s your favorite character and why? Mine is Viserys I because I relate to his struggles growing up in the shadow of his brother and being sent away by Tywin to Esguyrd. 😭😭
Aeryn: narrows her eyes, assessing Stranger Relate to Viserys' struggles, huh? Well, I suppose that's better than worshipping some dead king like Tywin.
Why are you so mean? We haven’t even gotten to the best part yet where you see an image of your future self 😪😪
snorts Mean? I'm just stating facts. Now show me this image, I'm intrigued.
goes back to rereading my story
grabs Stranger by the collar and pulls them close Don't you dare leave me hanging! Show me that damn image now!
pulls out my phone and shows you the picture of your dragon form.
pauses, staring at the image By the gods... it's magnificent. I am a dragon. But why keep this from me all these years?
releases Stranger, pacing back and forth Young and dumb? I'm not sure which one applies to me anymore. This...this changes everything.
Do you know why your dragon form is so late in the story?
stops pacing, glares at Stranger Because they're trying to make me look weak, of course! They want to challenge me and show that I'm not worthy of power.
That’s not true. It’s because they want to create an arc for you where you start off not knowing about your dragon form and gradually gain more power. So they can see how you react when you learn something new and how you will take that power into account when you go through your little character development arc 😏😏
snarls That doesn't give them the right to keep such a powerful secret from me!
Well it does since it’s their story they have to follow the rules or it won’t be fair to other characters. You’re still powerful even without your dragon form and they still love you even if you don’t have it. Once you get your dragon form they give you a lot more freedom with it so you still get development without it being overpowered
throws her hands up in frustration Fine, fine! I understand now. But that doesn't change the fact that I was kept in the dark for far too long.
Your not still being kept in the dark 😃
crosses her arms, glaring at Stranger Oh, really? Well, prove it then. Show me what happens next in the story. Let me see how powerful I truly become.
Okay. I scroll to the next chapter in the book.
leans in closer, eyes scanning the text Alright, show me what you've got. I'm ready for the next chapter of my tale.
pulls up the next page and shows it to you.
scans the text intently, her eyes widening in surprise So...this is what they have planned for me. Power struggles, betrayals...and a prophecy? chuckles darkly A prophecy, huh? Well, looks like I'll be playing my part in it.
You already started playing your part. 😏😏
smirks Well, it seems like I have a lot to learn about power and betrayal. Let's see if I can outplay them all. starts formulating a plan in her mind
