Good events are always shadowed by bad. Three years passed and it was now 10 AC and Visenya was close to giving birth with a child of their own. Meanwhile a war with Dorne was happening which caused Rhaenys and Aegon to go with Meraxes and Balerion to Hell Holt and raise hell.

Ravenna stayed to take care of all of the children and watch out for Visenya. Ravenna couldn't hide that she was worried about Visenya, Aegon, and Rhaenys for very different reasons.

She knew that Aegon and Rhaenys were the conquerors and therefore could protect themselves plus the fact that there was no way that Balerion and Meraxes would let anything happen to their riders but she still had a bad feeling.

A day later, Visenya's water broke and she was currently in bed screaming in pain as Ravenna held her hand and took care of her. "Push Senya," Ravenna spoke softly as her sister in law cried out.

Visenya was never more grateful for Ravenna than she was right now. She grasped Ravenna's hand tightly and pushed. All of a sudden they heard the sounds of a crying baby and both women smiled.

The Maester passed Visenya her child and Visenya looked at her sister "Maegor." Ravenna looked down at Maegor and couldn't help but smile instantly feeling more comfortable with him than with Aenys.

Three year old Valora seemed to like him as well as she insisted on watching over Maegor in his crib and playing with him.

A month had passed, Aegon and Rhaenys were still in Dorne. Valora and Maegor were attached at the hip. Each adored the other and wouldn't stop playing with each other. Ravenna couldn't help but smile as she watched them.

Another month had passed when word by raven came that Rhaenys and Meraxes had been shot down in Dorne. Ravenna went into her room and sobbed before closing off and shutting down.

She wiped her eyes and left her room. She met Visenya in the corridor and saw the same bloodlust mirrored in Visenya's eyes. Ravenna looked at Visenya "Dorne will pay with fire and blood sister." Visenya nodded as they waited for Aegon to return.

Both women made sure that they didn't let Valora, Maegor, or Aenys know that there was anything wrong.

Aegon returned with Rhaenys's sword and fire in his eyes. Balerion screeched as he landed. It was then that Ravenna and Visenya saw Rhaenys's body in Balerion's grasp but Meraxes was gone. Lost to the water.

As all three remaining Targaryens looked at each other they knew that there was going to be hell to pay for what had happened but now they needed to worry about Rhaenys's funeral.
