    George R. R. Martin to Amazon.co.uk: The whole point of the scene in A Game of Thrones where Daenerys hatches the dragons is that she makes the magic up as she goes along; she is someone who really might do anything.

    George R. R. Martin in an online Q&A from 1999: The birth of Dany’s dragons was unique, magical, wonderous, a miracle. She is called The Unburnt because she walked into the flames and lived.

    George R. R. Martin to Desde Hollywood: Magic is coming more and more to the fore. Magic has awakened when the dragons awoken.

    DAENERYS TARGARYEN + Moon references in her chapters

    “A trader from Qarth once told me that dragons came from the moon,” blond Doreah said as she warmed a towel over the fire.
    […] “He told me the moon was an egg, Khaleesi,” the Lysene girl said. “Once there were two moons in the sky, but one wandered too close to the sun and cracked from the heat. A thousand thousand dragons poured forth, and drank the fire of the sun. That is why dragons breathe flame. One day the other moon will kiss the sun too, and then it will crack and the dragons will return.”
    The two Dothraki girls giggled and laughed. “You are foolish strawhead slave,” Irri said. “Moon is no egg. Moon is god, woman wife of sun. It is known.”
    “It is known,” Jhiqui agreed. — AGOT, Daenerys III

    ~

    The khal laughed as he swung down off his stallion and showed her the scars on his leg where the hrakkar had raked him through his leggings. “I shall make you a cloak of its skin, moon of my life,” he swore. — AGOT, Daenerys VI

    ~

    As the moon rose above the grasslands, Dany slipped at last into a restless sleep.
    She dreamed. All her cares fell away from her, and all her pains as well, and she seemed to float upward into the sky. She was flying once again, spinning, laughing, dancing, as the stars wheeled around her and whispered secrets in her ear. — ADWD, Daenerys X

    House Tully | Siblings

    Catelyn Tully is the eldest daughter of Lord Hoster Tully and Lady Minisa Whent. When Catelyn's mother died in childbirth, along with her son, Lord Hoster told his daughter that she had to be the Lady of Riverrun in her mother's stead. She was close with her younger sister. Lysa had been a soft, shy, and timid girl in her youth, prone to tongue-tied silences and fits of giggles. Their younger brother, Edmure Tully, was known as hot-headed but good-hearted.
