Event Log: The Hope of a Child

[hadrielmods]

Who: All characters participating in the event
What: The event log for the The Hope of a Child event
Where: All over the city!
When: January 23rd-Feb 1st
Warnings: Youths

By now, the gods have probably done enough weird crap to you while you're asleep for you to be a little suspicious- but it's not like you can just not sleep, especially when there are a few supernatural forces making your eyes droopy and your body feel heavy.

And now, when you fall asleep, you'll wake up somewhere else and you'll likely have quite a different temperament- you'll be younger, maybe a little more naive and innocent, and you won't exactly remember all the wild stuff that's happened to your adult self. Maybe now you'll be a little more trusting and emotional, hm? The gods could definitely use a little boost in power, and what better way to do it than to harness the power of overemotional kiddos!

Or maybe you aren't affected at all and find yourself surrounded by youths. What are you going to do when your best friend doesn't know how to cook for themselves? Or your bitter rival is throwing a temper tantrum because they broke their favorite toy? Nobody asked for this kind of responsibility, but think about what would happen if nobody was around to take care of these babies...

[beggarprincess]

Not at all. Really, I do-... apologize. [ The end of her sentence is slower as she catches sight of the other girl, a stranger with beautiful hair and a tear-streaked face. Dany wavers, and then asks: ] Are you all right, my lady?

[ She seems very sad. Alone, like Dany herself. ]

May I help you, somehow?

[etiquetting]

(She wipes at her cheeks with the heel of her hand, feeling like a miserable utter mess. Where Daenerys has been taught how to survive, Sansa has been coddled by over-protective parents, brothers and a whole household of servants.)

If we are both prisoners, I think not. (But the other girl is kind and Sansa responds well to that, giving a small smile.) I am Sansa Stark.

(She gives a polite curtsy, head bobbing.) Perhaps we can keep each other company, at least?

[beggarprincess]

Are we prisoners? [ That somehow surprises her and her eyes widen. ] I... have seen no one threatening and have not been hurt, though... I admit that this place is strange.

[ Very hot and unfamiliar, never mind that she isn't sure how she'd gotten there. ]

Stark? [ Her heart flutters a little thinking of stories of Rhaegar and Lyanna Stark... of Ned Stark, friend to the Usurper, or so Viserys always said.

Dany swallows. ]

Is this Westeros?

[etiquetting]

Why else would we be here? (She is not choosing to be here and this is not Winterfell, so... It might be a presumption, but it's the best explanation she can envision.)

My father and mother will be very worried about me. (She blinks and nods slowly.) Yes?

I...do not know. (Here, she falters, glancing around warily.) I heard it was named Hadriel.

[beggarprincess]

I... don't know. [ She bites her lip at the thought, stomach twisting. Viserys will be very, very upset to learn that she's been taken captive. The idea has her heart race in fear and she wrings her hands. ]

Hadriel. [ It doesn't sound familiar, and she decides it might be safer to not mention why she knows of the Starks, or what her brother has told her. ] Well... I was in Braavos, my lady, until I woke here. How can that be possible?
