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 Targaryen of Whitefyre, Rhaenys Targaryen of Whitefyre, Aelon Targaryen of Whitefyre, Vaella Targaryen of Whitefyre and Jaehaerys Targaryen of Whitefyre. She was later betrothed and married to her cousin, Lucerys Targaryen of Whitefyre with whom she had two daughters, Haena Targaryen of Whitefyre, Vaemma Targaryen of Whitefyre and a son, Aegon Targaryen of Whitefyre.

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 I 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 two youngest siblings, the twin babies Vaella and Aelon. Naerys was pregnant with Jaehaerys at the time they left. They were followed by her youngest uncle Gaemon, her aunt Viserra, and her cousin and future husband, Lucerys. Here the 10 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 alongside her first born baby Rhaenyra, moved 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 youngest brother Jaehaerys Targayren of Whitefyre was born. At the same time, her cousin Helaena and Gaen were born from her aunt Viserra and his uncle Gaemon. From the marriage between her uncle Maegel Targaryen of Whirefyre and Rhaena Targaryen of Whitefyre, her cousin Rhaenyra Targaryen of Whitefyre was also born.

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. 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.
