[b]As always, Daenerys felt a small flutter in the pit of her stomach as Drogo asked her for advice. She was still trying to get used to the fact that a man in her life treated her with respect and valued her opinions; although he still didn't seem to understand or share her objections to the Dothraki practice of raping and enslaving conquered peoples. Today was the first day that her anger over the pillaging, & delighted by her boldness, Drogo had allowed his khaleesi to command the cease of the rape of the Lhazareen village. There had been unrest among the warriors, but there was no denying the khal & his wife.

"I think that for now, we should let her think she's won," Daenerys mumbled softly to Drogo, "You should focus on getting back on the top of your game before you allow your khalasar to see you worked up over a mere slave." Reaching out, she gently rubbed her fingers on his cheek, glad that he seemed to be relaxing a little. Dany could tell finding Mirri among all of the other slaves would be near impossible at this point, for she would be surely be hiding behind as many people as she could. All they had to do was let the worm squirm in hiding, & she would eventually reveal herself. & then she would be squashes for trying to take the khal's life through treachery & cowardly methods.[/b]
