(Third Person POV)
[A Month Later]
After the fighting in Dorne, slowed to a stop, the entirety of the region was given a gift from Drakken. Using his Blue Dust, he filled the lands with the trees, supplying cities and towns with a proper source of water and shade, just as he had promised.
Elia Martell, the new leader of Dorne, was a bit surprised by how fast the growth of the Trees was. The Storm Goddess, Ammaria, had ventured in the skies of Dorne, quickly spreading rain throughout the lands, which caused the growth of the Soaked Trees that will soon change the livelihood of the Dornish.
After the rain stopped, the Desert God retreated into the Red Mountains, already leaving a proper deposit of its minerals spread throughout the land. While this happened, Maegor and his men had scoured the sands hunting down Red Cultists and bringing the temples down. Jon Riversbane was fighting back the resisting forces of Dornishmen who ignored House Martell's orders to enter the ceasefire.
After two weeks, the Duskguard fully neutralized the fighting, bringing a state of order in Dorne. Three large detachments were left in Dorne after Ser Jon left the region, leaving three Knights in charge while Maegor continued his hunt for the Red Cultists. Wyl, Kinsgrave, and Yronwood were left under Duskguard control, acting as the main bases for them.
The plan was to have the Dornish start working, mining the minerals and harvesting the spice from the Desert God, and all of that which is gathered would be sent to the Riverlands as it was property of House Drakkengard.
For the following weeks, the process of mineral mining would begin, signaling the start of Dorne's new future. Elia Martell did this for the sake of Dorne's future, knowing that so long as they opposed Drakken, there was no safety.
Tyene Martell, her sister, was announced to bear Drakken's child, as a political deal, when the time came. Most of the Houses of Dorne were a bit skeptical about this but so long as Elia's heir was pure Dornish, they did not mind one bit. However, it was unknown when Drakken would come and have House Martell fulfill their end of the deal.
Until then, Tyene was untouchable.

"So it is done." Alysanne said softly, "Dorne is now Drakkengard territory...."
"So are we.... technically," Jaehaerys said seriously
"This is..." Alysanne looked down, "I don't know how to feel about this."
Jaehaerys nodded, "I know."
"There is still...Vaegon..." Alysanne began to tremble, "Where is he, Jaehaerys?"
"I don't know." Jaehaerys told her, "I really don't....at this rate, I am beginning to fear the worst."
"Please....let me ask Drakken..." Alysanne looked at her, "He is my son, Jaehaerys."
"At this moment, the last thing we need is to bother Drakken while he is in a foul mood." Jaehaerys stood up from his seat, "I heard what happened; he and Maegelle got into a quarrel. We need to bide our time and let his ire pass."
"But.....Vaegon!" Alysanne exclaimed, "What of our son?!"
"I'm doing all I can!!" Jaehaerys exclaimed, "I'm doing all I can, Alysanne!"
"If it isn't enough?" Alysanne asked, "W-What if...."
"I'll deal with it." a voice said
They both turned around to see Baelon standing a few feet away from them; he had snuck into the room without them noticing anything."
"Baelon." Jaehaerys said, "Do not do anything foolish."
"Aemon is with Daella, he has been with her ever since he returned from Harrenhal." Baelon took a step forward, "My brother....he is broken....."
"I understand." Jaehearys said, "I need my Hand to be in-"
"He won't." Baelon told him, "I am sorry, Father. But Aemon won't be in a proper mental state.....not for a long time. Let me handle this Vaegon situation. I can speak to Drakken.....he and Alyssa are on good terms, if I go with her to Harrenhal, we can work something out."
"You best be careful." Jaehaerys said, "Drakken hates you as well. He will make sure to do something terrible to you."
"I will be fine." Baelon said, "Alyssa has permission to fly there at any time."
"Baelon....." Alysanne started, "I don't want to lose you too..."
"Don't worry." Baelon told her, "I will ride with Alyssa, I won't risk Balerion. It will not take long, I promise."
"Let me handle this."

[Harrenhal, The Following Day]
Drakken sat on his throne, "Look at you, my beautiful girl." He said with a smile as he looked up, "Aren't you a joyous little one?"
He was speaking to Astorias, who was floating in the air above him, laughing uncontrollably. Drakken was holding her up with his Telekinesis, something that the girl had found delightful. The girl's smile and laugh were more than enough to put him in a great mood.
"Da!" the girl said, "Dada!"
"That's right, I am your Dada." Drakken said with a slight smirk, "A little higher? A little faster? What will it be, my dear?"
Several meters in front of the throne, Alyssa and Baelon were standing next to each other. The Princess was a bit worried about the girl, but knew that Drakken was safely handling this.
Baelon cleared his throat, "Drakken."
Drakken sighed and rolled his eyes, having Astorias lower down to his arms, "What?" He said with a serious tone, "What do you want?"
Astorias frowned as he sat her on his lap, looking up at her father, "Da..."
Baelon looked at him, "Vaegon." He said, "We need you to look for him. We are humbly asking for your head."
Drakken tilted his head, "Why?"
"My Mother has been worried sick about him. Ever since the Faith's revolt, he has been missing." Baelon said, "I have spent weeks searching for him in the Reach and in the Stormlands....to no avail....we require your....expertise.....on this..."
"And why would I do this?" Drakken asked, "I mean, seriously. Why? I don't like him. I have been lenient enough to your Family....you stand before me, with your head intact. That should be the last of my favors to you."
Alyssa stepped forward, "We come here, humbly, to ask for a favor." She said, "It is not something we are willing to not pay for."
"Ho?" Drakken said, "And what do you offer in return?"
"I....I don't know." Alyssa said
"If you just do us this favor, we'll owe you one." Baelon said, "A proper transaction."
"Hm...." Drakken said, "Interesting...."
"Your daughters are our blood, they are Targaryen." Baelon started, "Alyssa has made a good argument with that. They could receive a dragon egg of our-"
"No." Drakken said, "I would not insult them by giving them a filthy dragon of yours."
Alyssa frowned, "But..."
"Saera and Maegelle...they're your family, your blood. I had already asked them in what they wanted, they said that should they claim a dragon, it would be a proper Targaryen one. And I respect their decision." Drakken continued, "But my children? They are Drakkengard, not Targaryen. They will not touch a scale on your beasts.....I already have an egg for this one."
He patted Astorias's head, the girl simply smiled and laughed at this.
"What of Vaella?" Alyssa asked, "Would she-"
"Don't worry about her." Drakken cut her off, "I know what you're trying to do and I find it interesting. You know what, I do accept this offer."
"Eh?" Alyssa blinked
"I'll get you Vaegon, alright." Drakken smirked, "In return for this favor....."
"I want Dreamfyre."
