(Drakken's POV)
Maegelle looked at , "So it is truly over?" She asked , "You have ended the war?"
I nodded, "That is correct."
She was sitting across from on the table, looking at the food being served to her. Her face was full of regret, and she had a sad frown. It had been a few days after the ceasefire and Maegelle had been so anxious and nervous the whole ti. I can assu that she was not sure if I was going back on my word or not. She had seen her family one last ti during the eting and ever since then, there was been an air of sadness.
"House.....Drakkengard...." She said softly, "Why build a House?"
"The Duskguard is rely my military force, The Trinity is my religion, and House Drakkengard is my personal House." I said as I leaned back, "Obviously, I am not just any ordinary man but if I start abiding by the customs as this land and beco superior to your Father's house, wouldn't that piss him off?"
She looked at , "I...."
I chuckled, "Worry not." I said, "Ten years of peace. Ten years for is nothing."
She rubbed the mark on her neck, which was a faint pink, "But for us....it is a lot of ti." She said softly, "n are not like you, a self-proclaid god with great magic...."
I looked at her plate, "Eat your food. I won't poison you." I said, "I do not want my dear Maegelle to grow frail and thin."
"What will happen to ? What will you do to ?" She asked
"Nothing." I said, "You are now part of House Drakkengard, part of the Trinity. You belong to , that is all. Whether or not you consider yourself a piece of property, it doesn't matter to . I won't harm you, I won't do anything to you. You simply live your life as you see fit. The thing is, I want you to experience what it ans to be part of the Trinity, to be near a true god. The power of life, war, and death....it is all in the palm of my hand..."
"Why do you want Saera?" She asked
"I don't. Not really." I said with a shrug, "Well, not her specifically I want you Targaryens to breed as much as you can. Aemon and Baelon are doing just that, I suppose. The magic in their blood provides a certain high alongside a nice boost in my power....."
"So that is why you have ?" Maegelle said, "To....to take the magic in my blood?"
"Not you." I said, "Saera. I can always fly to King's Landing or Dragonstone and drain Aemon and his children should I choose to. Baelon and Alyssa too. I don't intend to kill anyone just yet. But to drain their magic, well....it is to be expected...."
She looked down, "I don't understand you....." she said
I leaned forward, "I thought you would." I said, "You spoke to as if you knew so much about the kind of man I was. Well, it appears that after witnessing what I am capable of...your mind is clouded, no? Well, uncloud it. I wish for you to see the true ...and tell what you understand.....these eyes of mine, what do you see?"
She looked at , peering into my eyes for a few seconds before finally answering, "Emptiness...."
I stood up and within a blink of an eye, I appeared behind her, which took her by surprise.
"Hm..." I said as I placed my hands on her shoulders, "Maegelle....Maegelle..."
"Ah.." She flinched
I leaned down and patted her cheek, "You don't ever have to fear . I will never harm you." I said with a smile, "Emptiness you say?"
"Well, I wish to learn more."
*************
"So you warged into the Guardian yet again....." I said as I rolled my eyes, "How many tis have I told you not to do that, Mya....."
"Forgive , my lord." She said as she sat on her bed, giving a frown, "I had no choice....there were two dragons...."
"Hm....." I said as I looked at her, "Is that so?"
I was in Mya's chambers inside Harrenhal. This was a week after the order was given to relocate. She had taken a bit of ti to move all of our belongings from the Tower. I gifted the Tower to Olyver Rivers as a reward for his actions in the War. I was going to be based here in Harrenhal so it did not matter to who occupied The Tower, so long as it was not empty.
Mya took all of my experints and moved them to Harrenhal without much effort which included my Dragon Eggs and the Dragon Hearts that are currently in stasis and gathering power. I had ordered for the Castle to begin repairs and Mya told that those that were refuging in the Tower have volunteered to help so long as they are protected.
She nodded, "My Lord..." She said, "I have accustod to it. The Guardian always returns to slumber after it traverses so much land...I had to wake it..."
I nodded, "Yes...." I said as I placed my hand on my chin, "That is its flaw....I have to think of sothing to override that specific flaw. Can't have it exhaust itself too much and have it beco useless.....I'll think of sothing...."
"My enhanced Warging was able to do the trick." She said, "I do not mind doing it."
"Too much warging into it will result in dire effects, Mya. Thread carefully when doing it." I said, "I told you that you need draconic magic in you to properly warg into the Drake....."
"Then give so draconic magic, Great One." She stood up and walked over to , "I have served you faithfully, loyally, for all these years. I have gathered followers for your cause, recruited Greenseers who will serve you without issue. I deserve such reward...."
"Hm." I said with a slight smirk, "I see....."
She placed her hand on my chest, "I just do not desire to feel a fraction of your pure power....I wish to bear you a child...." She said softly, "The child of the one true god...."
I patted her cheek, "You are quite the ambitious woman...."
"You do not show interest in the Targaryen girl.....and I know that you've asked for another one solely for the magic in their blood..." She said, "Please.....I will bear you a son who will lead your armies to war when the ti cos, should it co. I will bear you a daughter who will continue your bloodline, a holy one.....please.....I beg of you...."
"You ask for this?" I tilted my head
"Yes..." she said as a tear rolled down her cheek
"Well...." I said, "I just founded a House....and well...Mya Rivers does not sound so.....Lady-like, doesn't it?"
She looked at , "W-what?"
"I suppose I should reward you.....my first ever follower...." I said with a smirk, "We've co so far....."
"Mya Drakkengard."
