We can check but when has anyone's first guess for where to look been their last? If he's not there, maybe we could ask around. Besides, the only other dragon I've seen lately is you. Seeing the others would be nice. I fear Vhagar though.

We should find him. I don't think he's in the Dragonpit. We could ask one of the other dragons to take us to Balerion.

He must stay close by. I mean, he's gotta live somewhere.

That may be the best idea. Where is he today?

That's a good plan. If we don't, we could end up causing a bit of trouble. That's the last thing I want.

Maybe Balerion would know a way. He's probably seen everything there is to have seen that may help.

We may need some trick or something for that. Any ideas?

We can't reenact the ones involving dragonfire. I don't think we can anyway......can we?

Not what I meant. There were a lot of battles. We can't exactly reenact a battle. That would lead to trouble.

How can we act out how things were in the days of Old Valyria? Or even during the Conquest? *Silverwing tilts her head in slight confusion*

Yeah! It's better than reading about it. Reading doesn't really do the stories justice.

It took a while for me to think of that too. Don't feel bad. Balerion probably has the best stories of what things were like anyway.

True. We need to all know the histories. Though I'm sure we could learn from one who lived through it. Like Vhagar. Though I'm not sure she'd tell us.....maybe Balerion would?

Daydreaming? That's just as bad as falling asleep! *Silverwing chuckles* Perhaps we need someone more studious to keep us focused. We might end up dreaming of how we imagine things were.

That would be nice. if one of us misses something, the other can find out what seems to have been missed. Besides, someone will have to keep me from falling asleep on the histories. *Silverwing laughs. She would fall asleep on the histories. She is sure of it*

It could be that. They do say that Targaryens are closer to gods than men. Though sometimes I find myself wondering how that started. I may need to study the histories. I prefer to be carefree but if studying helps me understand things like this, I will do so. It may help me get another rider too.

Hmmm perhaps they could rise, as House Velaryon has done. Targaryens were always more prominent. I wonder why.....

Aren't they a lesser house? I do not think I have seen many from that house around. Plenty of Targaryens and Velaryons though.

*Silverwing sighs. She longs for a rider so she can have that. Flying on her own just isn't the same* It sounds fun. And no. No rider since then. It makes me wonder if I will ever have a rider again.

*Upon hearing Seasmoke, rolls her eyes and laughs. Typical Seasmoke. She notices that he looks tired and frowns* I'm alright. Bored of being unclaimed. You are lucky to have a rider. Speaking of which, you were just with him weren't you? You are always tired afterwards. And I can hear it in your -
