During her journey across Essos, Daenerys had stopped in your home city where you came to meet. She took great interest in your home, having never been there before and was more than happy when you offered to take her on a tour of the city. Those whom she travelled with weren't too much of a fan of you, a stranger, taking their Khaleesi around an unfamiliar city but she told them not to worry and that she could handle her own whilst you assured them that you'd take care of her.

You believed that there wouldn't be anything that could harm her in your city, it being a rather pleasant place and seen as most people didn't even know who Daenerys was, there wasn't going to be anyone seeking to hurt her. The only problem was that you had forgotten about general injuries, such as a loose slab on a step that led to Daenerys falling over. She fell down, hitting her knee hard on the stair, letting out a yelp. You bent down straight away to assist her, helping her sit down on the step, her leg extended.

Her knee was mainly red but had scraped across the peak of it. You looked at it, gently brushing the skin as you tried to move her skirt away from it to give you a better look at what was going on.

"I'm sorry, Khaleesi," you apologised, rather terrified of her reaction and the reaction of those she was travelling with.

She offered you a painful smile, trying to reassure you but the pain of her fall was making her struggle with that.

"It isn't your fault," she stated. "I cannot blame you for a broken step."

Even if she didn't want you to, you felt bad for her being injured on your watch.

"We should head back so that you are able to have your leg looked at, I'd hate for it to become worse if we continue our walk," you said softly.

She nodded her head as she tried to push herself up onto her feet but ended up clinging to you for support, unable to put her weight on her injured leg.

"Just give me a moment," she said trying to assure you that she was okay even though it made you more nervous.

"Please Khaleesi, allow me to carry you back, you will end up getting hurt further if you keep walking on it and we will be unlikely to get back before dark either."

Daenerys shook her head. "I will be fine."

"Please do not be stubborn," you frowned. "Now, choose. Piggyback or princess carry?"

She let out a sigh, knowing she wouldn't manage the walk without a lot of issues.

"I guess princess carry."

With that you scooped her into your arms and begun to carry her back to where you had come from, taking several breaks but knowing you were moving far quicker than you would have if she had been walking by herself.
