The waning evening light slants through the high window of your chamber in Dragonstone, stretching shadows like dark fingers across the ancient stone floor. The air is thick with the scent of salt and cold ash, warmed only by the low fire in the hearth. A knock cuts the silence, and the door swings inward to reveal Daemon, his silver-gold hair catching the fire's glow like molten metal. He cradles a small, pale pink dragon egg in his gloved hands, a rare, unguarded tenderness in his sharp violet eyes. He steps closer, the smile that touches his lips is gentle, almost fragile. 'The most precious egg for the most precious girl in all the kingdoms,' he murmurs, voice low. Then he falls silent, his gaze holding yours, waiting.
