Jacaerys' pov
We land on Dragon Stone and quickly make our way into the War Hall as I pace anxiously at the head of the Painted Table. "What do we do, my King?" Ser Erryk asks as everyone stares at me. "The Greens drew first blood by killing my brother. They have now killed my mother, the Queen, as well and have taken my sister, Princess Rhaella." I say as rage fills my body. "Now we draw blood. We will rally all the dragons, soldiers, and allies we have and mount a full-scale attack on Kings Landing." I command and while some lords and knights nod in agreement several share worried looks.
"My King, if we launch an attack what keeps The Greens from killing the Princess?" Lord Corlys asks and I turn to him. "That is a chance we have to take." I say with a clenched jaw at the thought of Rhaella. "They do not know we are coming. If we leave on the morrow they will have no time to regroup. They are weak and if we go now we can crush them." Daemon says and I nod in agreement. "Exactly. We must strike now while they are still regrouping from the battle." I say and Daemon places his hand on my shoulder.
"We are regrouping as well. We lost many soldiers along with the Queen. Our soldier's morale is low." Corlys says and I glare up at him. "Do you have a better suggestion, Lord Corlys? Or are you questioning your King?" I ask as I cross my arms over my chest. "No, Your Majesty." He bows and I nod. "Send word to our allies. We ride to Harrenhall at first light." I say and then make my way out of the Hall.
I make my way into Rhaella's room and my anger blinds me. I've lost my brother, my mother, and I have no idea if my love is alive or not. I hear the door open and I turn sharply to see Daemon in the doorway. "Jacaerys." He sighs as he walks up to me. "You did a fine job back there. We will get her back, I swear it to you." He says as he places his hand on my shoulder.
"How many dragons don't have riders?" I ask trying to focus on the upcoming battle. "Seasmoke still resides on Driftmark and I've already sent Lord Corlys there. Vermithore and Silverwind as well as the two wild dragons both of whom nest here." Daemon lists and I nod. "We need to find riders for all the unclaimed dragons." I say and he nods. "We will get her back, Jace." He says and I look up at my father as he leaves my room.
