[ The question is not unexpected, but it gives her pause all the same. She had been only two years Sieglinde's elder when Mirri Maz Duur had taken away her happiness. The maegi had professed to know healing arts, as well, but all her remedies had been poison.
Dany turns her hands over before her eyes. The last time she'd been burned, she had not truly noticed the destruction to her palms and her thigh until after Drogon had carried her to the Dothraki Sea. Her burns had still been leaking when she'd first found ALASTAIR's kitchens, filthy and half-starved. She'd been able to fly with bandages then, torn in strips from her dirty linen shift.
And yet her hands ache painfully, raw in their exposure to the air, the longer she looks at them. A light dusting of sand irritates them both. She grimaces, then resigns herself to Sieglinde's thinly-veiled determination. How harmful could it be? Mirri Maz Duur had been a sorceress who wished her ill. Sieglinde is a Green Witch, serving the wounded in a tent. The powers shall be as unlike as night and day. ]
I've no objection to your green magic-- [ --she bites her tongue before she can call the little healer something sweeter than she would like. ] You made it seem good and kind. [ A faint smile, then Dany seats herself upon the cot as gracefully as she can (which isn't as much as she'd like, with no hands). ]
