[ Daenerys has kept quiet minus speaking with a few others. She's been gathering her bearings, trying to learn what she can but it hasn't been much - not when things are so different.
Which is partially why she's posting now. There haven't been many that have found this all too strange (minus the confusion that she's heard) ]
I am awed [ worried. curious. confused ] by our presence here.
[ Daenerys's words are soft, and calm. She's looking to the communicator, having been taught its uses, her long white hair let loose about her ]
The magic that brought us here is great, and to be feared.
[ She also fears that the Usurper may be here and hiding, that she has had that kept from her. There is much that Daenerys does not know or understand of this place and the people in it, familiarities with the 'ship' for one, and the mentioned secrets ]
I have travelled by ship before, my brother told, and also by horse. I find it strange to travel but it be without my silver, and with no water to be had. This ship- it is grand. I- [ Fear. No. She may fear such things, past experience giving her cause to but she cannot admit to it ] I give caution to believing the magic - it is more deceptive than you see.
[ Daenerys gives a small nod before waiting, moments later remembering to (and how to) turn the video off ]

video;
They are not like this.
[ She may remember being on one but she has seen others - if mostly in picture ]
The Dothraki travel only by horse, and my silver was gifted to me.
perma-text;
Yeah, I thought so. The ship we're in right now is supposedly one that sails in a place far beyond the blue sky.
But you can't really see that from here since there aren't any windows.
Anyway, so I guess the Dothraki are a group of people who gave you a silver horse.
Was that for some kind of special occasion or whatever?
no subject
It was. [ She switches quickly, moving to something that she can talk about ] She was a gift from my husband.
no subject
We're on a spaceship.
It's like a boat that flies.
If there's any water, we're probably far from it.
A gift from your husband. You mean, like a wedding or anniversary gift or whatever?
If you're lucky, whatever brings us here might also grant your horse.
There are some people who've found their steeds here. [ The steed wasn't necessarily alive in both cases, but she doesn't need to know that.]
no subject
It was for our wedding. [ She thought back to it different now than she had done at first, especially him. Then she was afraid, now she loved him dearly, more so now that he was gone. All she had was her memories ]
I would not wish that. There would be no where for her to be. [ No where for Daenerys to ride her ]
no subject
But I guess it might possibly have wings, which might similarly look unlike those you're familiar with.
So giving horses is a Dothraki wedding custom? Sounds pretty sweet.
You wouldn't be the first who had a horse aboard this ship.
Another named Hatter also had a horse and kept her in the oxygen garden.
no subject
The Dothraki ride. Horses are special to them. [ When a Dothraki died he was buried with his horse - they were together, always ]
Is the horse happy?
no subject
Maybe you just need to take your time getting used to your surroundings.
Some say that it gets easier as time goes on and with each jump that passes.
Anyway, how so are the horses special? [ The Dothraki sound pretty cool in his book. ]
Where did the Dothraki ride? Are you one of them?
no subject
They ride only by horse, with their khalasar. They will not use anything else. [ Or cross by water ] I am. [ She is now ] Drogo, my husband, is a Dothraki warrior.
