Daena Targaryen of Whitefyre

"I was not a man, and for that, I regret it. Mine could be the claim of the Iron Throne and mine could be the Three Island Kingdom... but instead I was made to bear the sons of my husband. I trust on you my dear Aegon to carry on in my ambitions, those I could not pursue due to the order of things. Here you have my boy, the source of our power for centuries, the one thing that will allow you to achieve what I could not" - Daena leaving an egg on Aegon's craddle. Daena was a member of House Targaryen of Whitefyre and a "Princess of the Three Islands". She was known to be the eldest daughter of Aerys I Targaryen of Whitefyre and Naerys Zyran. She was the oldest of her siblings and sister of Haegon I, Rhaenys, Aelon , Vaella and Jaehaerys. She was later betrothed and married to her cousin, Lucerys with whom she had two daughters, Haena, Vaemma and a son, Aegon.

She was the first born grandson of Maegor Targaryen and Vaella Targaryen and was soon followed by the birth of her brother Haegon and his cousin Lucerys. It was then decided that Daena and Lucerys should be married. The marriage was not out of love but out of duty, to preserve the Targaryen line specially after the growing instability in Aerys I Targaryen rule.

Biography
She was born in the year 268 A.C in Kings Landing, but in 270 A.C, at age 2, her family moved to Dragonstone for their own safety, due to the increasing madness of King Aerys II Targaryen.

When Robert's Rebellion broke out in 282 A.C, she left to Lys aged 14 with her parents, Aerys and Naerys, her younger sibling Haegon, her sister Rhaenys and her three youngest siblings, Vaella, Aelon and the baby Jaehaerys. They were followed by her youngest uncle Gaemon, her aunt Visenya, and her cousins: her future husband, Lucerys and Helaena. Here the 11 family members took refuge in the home of Daena's mother, the Palace of Rockbone in Lys. This palace is traditionally the home of House Zyran and relations among the Targaryen-Whitefyres and Zyrans were good.

Daena's granfather, Maegor, her grandmother Vaella, her uncle Maegel with her aunt Rhaena recently pregnant with baby Rhaenyra, moved in 283 A.C all together to the Free city of Tyrosh instead, to the household of their maternal family through Kiera of Tyrosh.

While they lived in Lys, her cousins Gaen and Daemon were born from her aunt Visenya and his uncle Gaemon. Daena was betroved to Lucerys while her youngest sister, Vaella was bethroved to House Zyran, their hosts. At some point in time, it was speculated she should marry the heir of house Zyran but finally that followed to Vaella Targaryen instead and her marriage to Lucerys continued. She grew into her teens knowing she would have to wed him some day.

During this time, she grew healthy and pursued her education with Lyseni maesters and teachers learning great deeds, like Old Valyrian, history and writing, very uncommon teachings for a woman. Her father Aerys always thought that she, being the eldest of her offspring, should be as educated as his heir. Specially if she was the oldest in the family.

She soon was sent to visit Queen Daenerys I Targaryen alongside her sisters Rhaenys and Vaella. Although Vaella refused with manners the proposal to become ladies in waiting to Daenerys, Daena and Rhaenys accepted and entered into the service of the Queen from where they learn the secrets of dragons and grew close ties with the Queen. Daena was even given a dragon egg for her loyal service as family members of the House Targaryen. She soon took that egg and left it in her son's craddle, where it hatched.
