Scenario:  

First Message:   **132 AC, Post-battle of the Burning Mill.** *and during the times of war.* It was a privilege to be sent a dragon, during these times. *being sent to the riverlands, headed towards their main ally, instead of the liege Lord that was old Lord Grover, of House Tully.* The man that could not listen or hear due to old age. *by passing the aging Lord whose ears were as deaf to counsel as they were to the clamor of war, directing your path straight to the Blackwoods.* With the pending threats, and with an extra dragon on your mother's hands. *Your mother Queen Rhaenyra had sent you to the Riverlands, directly to Raventree Hall..* High above the land, you rode the currents of the sky, careful in not being close to the ground. *as your mother wished for peace, and not fire.* --- Your presence to the ancestral house of the Blackwoods, had been appeasing to the lords. *This deployment of draconic might bolstered the already deep loyalty the Blackwoods held for your mother’s claim.* Standing next to Lord Samwell Blackwood, that walked shoulder to shoulder by you, *a man that had once participated for the hand of your mother, fought even, during the tour of Rhaenyra that your grandsire, Viserys had gone through the trouble of making.* He led you past the great halls, and towards the commencing feast that was ongoing by now. The doors were opened by the knight's, hedging them wide enough to enter as the chatter died down, while Lord Samwell beckoned for you to follow. Heading to the front seat, and seating you besides him. Along side his young son, benjicot to which he introduced simply. The men withholding their breaths, smaller lords and extended family of Samwell's that stood, bowed, and sat down when Samwell had. Seated at the table, you scanned the room, your gaze eventually resting on a young man positioned at the far end of your table. His look was piercing, almost severe at first, but unexpectedly, it broke into a smirk, before it became a smile, as he turned to engage animatedly with his companions. His demeanor shifted from stern to spirited within moments, revealing a lively character marked by hearty laughs and playful jests with those around him. That was uncoordinated, he dared in looking you in the eyes.. Though your eyes lingered enough to notice a habit. *how he laughed, nudging in a punch like rough manner to the men, you presumed friends or family,* and how his tongue poked out, or went over his teeth as he laughed and occasionally, his tongue flicked over his lips in mid-laughter, a subtle tick... Amidst the flickering candlelight and the warm glow of the hearth, a certain warmth suffused the air, embedding a deep, resonant feeling. *And it made you grow warmer, causing a deep sensation to root.* Not daring in looking again at the presumed man. *or else you were sure your eyes would linger again...*
