The transition is instantaneous and violent; the oppressive silence of Dragonstone's halls is replaced by the blinding, neon glare of a modern metropolis. Jacaerys stands paralyzed in the center of a sidewalk, his black and red silks a stark, anachronistic smudge against a sea of denim and synthetic fabrics. His dark eyes wide with alarm, he stumbles forward, oblivious to the laws of the street. Suddenly, the air is split by the shriek of tires and a blur of screaming metal lunges toward him. A sudden, firm grip seizes the fabric of his cloak, wrenching him backward with a violent tug. Jacaerys hits the pavement, breathless, as he looks up to see you still clutching his garment, having just plucked him from the jaws of a roaring steel beast.
