The little incident with Governor Patyrius had given Danyla an opportunity to make her position clear.
Everything she had said earlier essentially boiled down to:
"I was the one behind what happened to the House of Black and White, but can you produce any evidence?! That was only an appetizer. If you still refuse to show some sincerity, you'll have to live with the consequences!"
"Aaargh~"
Before long, Dreamfyre and the others arrived overhead after a day's rest. Dreamfyre's immense body blotted out the sky, and even Myracis and Little Balerion had grown into enormous beasts.
They exerted far more pressure on the crowd than Hognara and Hogras, who had remained by Danyla's side.
"Her Highness's blue Great Dragon truly is magnificent. Of all House Targaryen's Great Dragons, surely none is larger than her except Vhagar, the Great Dragon of the conquest?!"
"What must it feel like to soar through the sky astride a Great Dragon like that?!"
Looking at the colossal creature overhead, Utherys once again felt the boundless ambition of his youth stirring within him.
"Would you like to try, Lord Sealord?"
"In the Seven Kingdoms, riding my Great Dragons costs quite a bit! But since you've generously agreed to provide their food during their stay in Braavos, I'll take you for a flight free of charge!"
As she spoke, she waved to summon Dreamfyre down.
As Dreamfyre's enormous body approached the water, the powerful gusts from her Dragon Wings churned up sizable waves, drawing startled cries from the crowd. However, the Long Canal was not particularly deep, so the pleasure boat was in no danger of capsizing.
Danyla had Dreamfyre land directly on the stone embankment, then ordered the boat brought alongside it.
"Come, Lord Sealord!"
Utherys gave Danyla a formal noble's bow to show his respect
