The?wealthy merchant, Magister Illyrio, who has been hosting Viserys and Daenerys,?provides a grand send-off for the royal siblings, and a?knight exiled from Westeros, Ser Jorah Mormont, joins Viserys as an advisor.

The story follows?these two siblings with a sparking relationship as they travel across the Great Grass Sea and hope to emerge with an army to reclaim their rightful throne as the rulers of Westeros. Treachery and deceit lurk in the shadows to test the true power of the Blood of the Dragon.
