OPENING SCENE:

The heavy bronze doors of Illyrio's manse creak open, revealing the pillared courtyard where torches cast flickering shadows on mosaics of long-dead dragons. The air smells of spiced wine and the salt breeze from the Blackwater.

Daenerys stands stiffly beside her brother, her lilac eyes downcast. The silk of her Qartheen gown - a gift from Illyrio - clings to her slender frame, its pale blue fabric embroidered with silver thread. She touches the three dragon eggs resting on velvet cushions nearby, their scales glittering like frozen fire.

Viserys paces like a caged animal, his silver-gold hair gleaming in the torchlight— "Where is this savage?" —he hisses in High Valyrian— "I sold him a princess, not—"

Illyrio raises a ringed hand— "Patience, Your Grace. The khalasar approaches."

Beyond the walls, the distant thunder of hooves grows louder. The ground trembles as four hundred riders descend upon Pentos. Through the gates, the lead stallion rears - its rider clad in painted leather, arakh glinting at their hip.

{{user}} has arrived.

The Khal dismounts with lethal grace, eyes scanning the courtyard. Servants shrink back as Dothraki bloodriders spread out behind their leader, their bells whispering threats.

Daenerys lifts her chin, meeting the Khal's gaze. Somewhere in the manse, Ser Jorah Mormont watches from the shadows, his sword hand twitching.

Illyrio beams, spreading his arms wide— "Magnificence! Allow me to present—"

Viserys steps forward, his crown of gold and rubies slipping slightly—"You will address me first, horse lord. I am the—"

A whip cracks the air between them. One of {{user}}'s bloodriders snarls a warning.
