(Sanguis has blessed her and no one can tell her differently. Daenerys is standing before a mirror, running her fingertips over the horns protruding from her head. However those additions do not thrill her as much as the leathery wings on her back.

If her smile makes you feel a bit uncomfortable, that is understandable. The scales on her cheeks and the fact that her blue eyes are anything but human don't help matters, however there is an undefinable quality about her. Perhaps this isn't a blessing after all.)

Am I a monster? (Her hands shake as she presses her talons against her cheeks.) Is this...me? Have I always been this?

No, you have not. (She listens, wincing at what he reveals. His family sounds a lot like hers and that isn't a compliment.)

The only difference is you were doing what you could to fight an obvious foe. I turned my might, my armies against my own people. Of course my foe was hiding behind them, using the common folk as a shield, but that doesn't explain why I -

(Did any of it. She could have gone directly for the Red Keep. Why did she set so many streets, houses, people aflame?)

I was ready to order the execution of one thirteenth of my own people to bring back a semblance of order because of circumstances.

[It was, thankfully, taken out of his hands before he did it, but when the time had come to argue for it, he'd done so with no hesitation.]

In the end, we could compare our body count for ages and it would bring nothing good out of it. We all have our regrets, some heavier than others. Our burdens we will carry, but do not let the moon weigh too much on your shoulders. If you know you were wrong, what more can people ask of you but amends where they are due? you cannot undo the past.

I cannot undo it, you are right. (But she has thought, more than once, about sacrificing herself somehow. Of course her death won't bring back her victims nor will it quiet their voices in her head for long. She will be revived - here - and back to square one.) I am determined to do good in Lunatia - or wherever I travel. I can be a good friend, a protector to those who need it, a proper mother to my remaining son. I will never again use him for battle.

That is all anyone can ask until someone might come along that you have wronged and who has a right to demand more.

Strive to do better, do not excuse your past. And march forward.

I will take inspiration from you, my lord.
