Chapter 5 - The Dragon and Rider (II)
"When religion, royalty and hard times go hand in hand, it's a sign that a real hell is about to break out. And the end will certainly not be kind to me or my children." Aenar Targaryen thought as he watched the people kneel before him, worshipping him like a god.

Jon rose early, as he had for the past month - within the Nexus of Time and Space, his fencing lessons, dragon riding, and blood magic lessons had become a routine for him.
Visenya Targaryen didn't hold back when she spoke of the entire legacy of House Targaryen, knowledge lost in suspicious fires clearly orchestrated by people who didn't want to see magic spread throughout Westeros.
He had an idea of who had been slowly and patiently destroying House Targaryen's legacy.
The Faith of the Seven and the Order of the Maesters.
Both organizations with extreme power and influence in Westeros and the main culprits behind many of the tragedies that had befallen House Targaryen. Revenge that Jon would bring with fire and blood at the right time.
Blood magic, however, was a strange art. Not only could it be used to prolong one's life through sacrifice, but it could also change the body of the user, if they so wished.
In his Visenya lessons, Jon discovered that after five thousand years of existence, Blood Magic had become so prevalent in the blood of the Forty Houses of Dragon Lords that many of them had quite exotic abilities.
Some could control multiple swords with their minds, while others were faster and stronger than any living human. The creation of chimeras was just the tip of the iceberg of blood magic. They had so many uses and tools that were sadly lost when Valyria sank into magma and death.
Although it was an interesting art, Jon didn't care much for it; the Targaryen gained the ability to predict the future through sleep, known as Dragon Dreams, but this ability became ridiculously strong in him due to Prescience.
