Chapter 50 - Flight of the Dragon (II)
"Faith moves people to do the most unspeakable acts for someone else." Varys the Spider.

The gigantic crimson dragon rose into the sky of Volantis, the creature's shadow looming below, covering a large part of the city, causing exclamations of shock and fear among the inhabitants of the First Daughter.
Even half an hour after the dragon had disappeared from sight, people were still talking about it.
At the same time, the rumors that the Son of Light of the Red Faith was in Volantis spread like fire burning a field of grass. The crimson dragon only confirmed the rumors and this caused countless people to walk towards the Great Red Temple on pilgrimage.
Looking down at the Summer Sea below her, the deep blue waters warmed by the sun, Daenerys opened her mouth without words to describe what she was feeling at that moment.
Flying was everything she had hoped for and more. The feeling of freedom was simply intoxicating. The loud, deafening sound of Caraxes' wings buzzed in her ear as her hair fluttered violently against the wind.
"I'll show you something interesting." Daenerys heard her nephew's sweet whisper in her ear and before she could say anything, he heard him shout.
"Dracarys."
Daenerys's eyes widened at the scene that took place the next moment.
Caraxes opened his mouth and a funnel of flames gushed into his mouth and then the dragon simply stepped through the flames themselves with a loud, defiant roar.
