Ryis experienced a sense of liberation whenever she submerged herself in the water; the feeling of weightlessness as she glided above the swaying seaweed brought her immense joy. The gentle tickle of the seaweed against her scales only added to her delight, making her feel truly at home back in the water.

The taste of fish on her tongue was a sensation that Ryis savoured, a reminder of the bountiful treasures that the ocean held. Racing against the crashing waves, she felt a rush of adrenaline that fueled her love for the water even more. It was in these moments of pure exhilaration that Ryis felt truly alive.

Playing tricks on passing ships was a favourite pastime of Ryis; the thrill of causing a momentary panic among the sailors by creating the illusion of an attack never failed to amuse her. The mischievous twinkle in her eye as she banged on the side of the ship was a testament to her playful nature and her deep connection to the sea.

She found joy in provoking sharks and swiftly escaping their grasp. The tales spun by the crabs about their battles with a mysterious figure known as the crab feeder always intrigued her, even though she doubted their authenticity. It was peculiar how each crab recounted the same narrative,

The thrill of outsmarting the predators of the sea fueled her adventurous spirit, while the enigmatic stories of the crabs added a layer of mystery to her underwater escapades. Despite her skepticism, she couldn't help but wonder about the truth behind the tales and the identity of the elusive crab feeder. The consistency in the crabs' accounts only deepened the intrigue surrounding their supposed encounters

She loved listening to the story's the crabs told her about how they fought in a war with someone called the crab feeder but she didn't believe them but it was strange that all of them told the same story. as if they were all part of a shared history that she couldn't quite comprehend.

The story of how four white haired men killed everyone, the crabs told and apparently two of them had dragons.

But soon she knew it was time to go back to the red keep and slowly dragged her body to the shore. Ryis slowly crawled onto land, her dry body aching against the burning sand.

She waited for the immense pain after she started to dry, the pain no matter how many times she transformed was still a pain that could not compare to anything any human could feel.

After her transformation she waddled over to a grass patch near the walls of the castle.

After her accident when she had to escape out her chambers Viserys put chests on every wall of the castle so she could change once she got to land. She opened the chest and there was a blue satin dress with a pair of black flat shoes And a silver necklace with a pearl in the middle.

She slowly slipped on the Dress and shoes and clipped on the necklace then headed to the secret entrance so she wouldn't have to go through the front entrance.

She walked over to the door, her legs shaking from the pain from the transformation, she opened the door and tiptoed inside. She snuck past lords and ladies and everyone she couldn't be bothered to see and snuck of to her chambers.

Once she entered the chambers there were two people waiting for her.

rhaenyra and jace

As Rhenerya approached Ryis, the tension in the air was palpable, with both women preparing for a confrontation. Yet, when Rhenerya reached out and pulled Ryis into a warm hug, the atmosphere shifted from one of conflict to one of compassion and forgiveness. The unexpected gesture bridged the gap between them, fostering a sense of unity and healing.

"Oh Ryis you're alright we were worried" rhaenyra spoke ticking ryis's wet hair behind her ear.

Jace stood up and walked towards ryis. She was shocked at the mark she left without realising she even did it.

She brushed her finger tips against the scars on his neck causing him to wince at the pain, Ryis hissed lightly and backed away.

"Did I do that?" Ryis asked worriedly.

"Yes... but it's my fault I shouldn't have jumped in after you" he argued.

she felt something you never felt happen to her before she was crying the salty tears stung your eyes.

"Ryis are you crying?" Rheanyra asked, standing in-front of her.

"Crying?" Ryis questioned, wiping her face.

"I just - I didn't even know I hurt him" ryis spoke choking up again.

"Aw Ryis he's ok the maester is on his way to stitch him up" rhaenyra comforted.

The maester started to stitch up Jace and she couldn't bear to see him in agony. Every time the needle went through his skin it was harder for Jace to pretend to be strong.

"Princess.... Can I try something to help?" Ryis asked, his eyes filled with concern as he looked at Rhaenyra. Rhaenyra glanced at her son, Jace, and upon seeing his small nod, she walked over to him and took a seat in front of him.

Placing her hand gently on the opposite side of Jace's neck, Ryis began to sing a haunting melody. There were no words, only ethereal sounds that seemed to transcend the realm of mortal understanding. The melody flowed through the air, wrapping around Jace's mind and soothing his pain, as if it were never there to begin with.

As the maester finished stitching up Jace's wounds, Ryis ceased her singing. The pain that had once tormented Jace vanished, leaving no trace of the injury that had caused him such agony. Jace let out a sigh of relief and spoke, his voice filled with awe,

"Ryis... that's truly amazing." Rheanyra spoke softly, standing tall once again, ryis explained, "In water, we learn this to heal after battles"

Over time Ryis had to go back in the water a lot less and now she could stay on land for three weeks without needing to go back. Despite what had happened she continued to train with the boys, but made sure to beat Aegon every time he was chosen to spar with her.

They were in the training yard and there trainer and left to get his signature weapon that Aemond asked to see.

"So.... Now that that he has gone... how about you say we use these?" Spoke aegon picking up a real sword and swinging it about ceaselessly.

"Aegon that won't be very sensible" Aemond protested.

"Fine you pussy, but I know Ryis would gladly spar with me" he teased with a chuckle placing the sword back were he found it.

"ok" seriously said Ryis, earning shocked faces from the boys.

"ok?" Aegon questioned now, a bit worried about fighting her.

"Alright then aegon since you asked so nicely I shall spar with you" Ryis teased picking up a sword.

Aegon chuckled and picked up the sword again and positioned himself.

"Spar" Aegon demanded and he charged at ryis with his sword

She quickly moved to the side causing argon to fall on the floor. He quickly stood up and charged at him again and tried to assert dominance. Ryis put one hand behind her back and blocked his advances and pushed her sword upwards causing him to stumble back. She pressed her sword at his neck and won the battle.

She smirked and turned away walking to Jace.

"Bitch....you're an animal" he muttered under his breath.

Due to her hearing she heard what he muttered. She dropped her sword and used 10% of her full strength to punch him at the side of his face causing him to fall to the ground.

She clung on top of him and kept punching him repeatedly building up strength each time making his face bloodied and bruised each time she punched him.

She only stopped punching when seven guards dragged her off but even then she didn't stop hurting him, she used her legs to kick him where it hurts

She was thrown to the ground by the guards and she stormed back into the castle. But a little boy ran after her
