Hela is sitting in her room writing a letter when suddenly her room door slams open

"It is time for our afternoon ride" Eddard says walking into the and shutting the door

Hela ignores him continues to write to the letter

"You promised" Eddard says walking up to her

Hela pretend to think

"Do not pretend not to remember" Eddard says with warning tone

Eddard looks over her shoulder to see what shes writing

"Oh, is this another letter to Aemond" Eddard says with a sour tone

Hela ignores him again and continues to write the letter

"I do not know why you write them, you do not send them" Eddard says then grab the wooden box where she put the letters and grabs one

'Dear Aemond

Knowing you might read this letter one day give me enough strength to continue to write them

I heard you won your first tourney and got your knighthood

I wish I could tell you that I am proud because I still remember the boy who would beg me to write him poems because it help him sleep at night

I hope to see you one day and act like we use to, like the dreadful night never happened

you still have your beautiful violet eyes in my mind and I hope in your I have smooth gorgeous face with no scars

Well my sweet Aemond I wish you the best

Yours truly,
Hela'

Eddard glares at the letter and sudden urge to burn it

This is one of the first letters she wrote when she was younger

The only reason Eddard can tell them apart because it doesn't have

azantys nēdenka in them

It means 'brave knight' in High Valyrian

Hela takes back the box and puts the letter back and puts the new letter in it

"So now your ready now?" Eddard asks in a sarcastic tone while they walk out the room

•••

The duo has been flying for about an hour

They decided there dragons need to rest so they land and go back into the castle

They were walking back when a maester came up to them

"You have a letter princess" the maester says handing her the letter

Hela opens the letter and the first few sentences make her eyes widen

"You have been summoned to court" Eddard says who was reading over her shoulder

Hela and Eddard look at each other in confusion

•••

Rhaenyra has already read the letter two times already

"They wish to summon you to become apart of your grandsire court" Rhaenyra says surprised

"Viserys wants her to be apart of his court?" Daemon asks trying to understand it

"Apparently, and they wish for her to come alone" Rhaenyra says with a sigh

"Well that's off the table. I will not have her alone in the castle with those green cunts" Daemon says glaring at nothing

Hela rolls her eyes at his remark

"Well what do you think Hela?" Rhaenyra asks her first born who looks like shes thinking

Hela grabs a paper and starts to write then to hands to her mother who reads it

"You wish to go?" Rhaenyra asks in a shocked tone

Hela nods her head 'Yes'

"What?!" Daemon exclaims snapping his head towards his daughter

Hela ignores Daemon and gives her mother a pleading look

"If you truly wish it" Rhaenyra says with a sigh, agreeing with her daughter

"What? No! How will you be protected if your all the way in Kings landing" Daemon says disagreeing

Hela shoots Daemon a look of annoyance

"Daemon she has two dragons who will literally kill anyone for her and besides she take Eddard as her knight" Rhaenyra says waving her hand towards Eddard at the end

"I would be honored" Eddard says standing behind Helps chair, standing straighter than he was before

"Than that settles it, we will send a raven to your grandsire saying that you accept his invitation then you will leave soon after that" Rhaenyra says the gets up to leave with a grouchy Daemon behind her

•••

It's been a week since they sent out the raven to Kings landing and Hela is packing to leave

Hela looks behind her at the wooden box of unsent letters debating whether she sould take them or not

Hela looks at the box for thirty seconds before going over and grabbing it then putting it in her trunk

•••

Rhaenyra releases her daughter from her hug

"Write to me?" Rhaenyra asks with a sad smile

Hela nods her head 'yes'

Luke suddenly hugs Hela tightly

Hela smiles and hugs back just as tight

"I shall miss you dreadfully" Luke says then lets go with a sniffle

"Someone gives you trouble, you tell me, Caraxes and I will be down there" Daemon says holding Hela's shoulders making her nod

Hela looks over to her brother Jace who has been giving her the cold shoulder ever since he has found out she's leaving

Hela sighs disappointed

Hela sends her family one last smile before walking over to Cannibal then climbs on his saddle

Hela pats his side and he takes off with Eddard on Ghost and Vermithor following behind them
