Daenerys Targaryen | The Dragon Queen (unburnt) wrote in themandalay, |
Dany was extremely overwhelmed by all of this. It was as if she had found herself in a whole new world. Most people here didn't know anything about Westeros. They didn't know they should show her respect either. Dany had been through so much in the past, to get to where she was now. And here, none of that even mattered a bit. No one, save for Lord Snow of Winterfell, seemed to show her any bit of respect. Well, that wasn't quite true. There were some people here who at least acknowledged she was a queen. But others were so rude. Dany didn't like being at this disadvantage. She didn't like being without Tyrion, Missandei, and her children. Here she felt like no one, like some stupid girl playing queen. It was easy to let those thoughts get the best of her, particularly here watching them carry on at some kind of gathering she didn't understand. She stood out, and not just because of her attire. She relaxed visibly when Lord Snow approached her. At least she knew someone here. "I have." She said with an air of confidence she didn't feel at the moment, as she regarded Jon and his direwolf. "But I'm not sure I understand any of this. What are they celebrating?" Dany had kept her distance from most of the other people here. "And why are they dressed so strangely?" |
