illyrio waved his hand and four burly slaves carried a huge oak chest to her. it was opened and inside was a pile of silk and velvet garments. on top of it laid tree, huge eggs. they were covered with scales, like jewels, shining in the light of dusk.one was bronze-colored with deep green light shimmering.one was creamy white with golden lining around each scale. the last one was jet black, yet in the setting sunlight whirls and ripples of red glow moved and shifted if seen from different angles, like a dying ember. Danny was speachless at such beauty. she held it up thinking these were made of fine porcelain or blown galss. but it was so heavy, like she was holding a solid stone. "dragon eggs from asshai, the land under shadow. these eggs had long dead and ages turned them to stone. but they still born great beauty." though Danny knew illyrio had collected unimaginably countless treasures from westros and essos, and he gained even more by selling her , she thanked him all the way with gratitude.

now the dorthraki bloodriders offered their traditonal three gifts. qotho gave her a bow, double-curved and made of dragon bone even taller than her. haggo,a whip with silver handle. cohollo a magnificent arakh chased in gold. she refused these as the tradition of dorthraki, taught by illyrio and jorah. " these are splendid gifts worthy of a great worrior but I am only a womam, blood of my blood. let my lord husband bear these gifts." so drogo got his "bride gifts" too.
