While we still have enough food and water to go for at least another month, I didn't want to leave such a convenient place without knowing how much distance we had to cover before we reached Qarth.

Strange dreams and path to Qarth II
"Listen Aneres ! You have the blood of a dragon lord ! But your behaviour, shameful !"
"Stop treating your slaves so kindly ! How can I ever be a father of a son like you ?"
"You are a disgrace to my Bloodline !"
.
.
.
"Aneres ! My son, you have become the Guardian ! I am proud of you."
"You are a disgrace ! How could you allow a slave to enter the high palace ?"
"At first those Targaryen fools broke our tradition ! And now you ! You might be the Guardian, but you are the most disgraceful Guardian in the history of Valeria !"
.
.
.
"You ! You evil spawn !"
"You are going against your own family ?"
"Please…. Spare us !"

"What ! What was that ?" Daenerys sat up on her bed after getting another strange dream.
She had no idea of the meaning of the dreams she was getting. But she had a theory that all of the dreams might be somehow connected to the rusted sword or the doom of Valyria. These broken dreams were creating a lot of suspense for her. And she didn't like it at all. So far there has been no changes in the sword itself. But there is one thing that Daenerys had noticed since the past few days, since she started having strange dreams, her Dragons didn't particularly like to go near that sword. But not being able to figure out the reason behind such a behaviour of her little ones, she was very worried.
"Khaleesi, are you up ?" A voice from outside of her tent broke Daenerys out of her contemplation.
"Yes… what is the matter ?" Daenerys asked, rubbing her eyes.
"Your 'blood of the blood', Qhono has returned, khaleesi."
"Alright, I will be there in a moment." Daenerys replied as she scooped up drogon from her belly. Then she picked up Viserion and Rhaena. Drogon woke up immediately and flapped his tiny wings to get on Daenerys' head. Apart from her chest, her head was the favourite spot for little Drogon. Viserion was a deep sleeper. So he remained asleep. On the other hand, Rhaena climbed up on her shoulder to claim her spot.
After adjusting her dress, she went out of her tent.
"Qhono, did you find Qarth ?" Daenerys asked her blood rider after meeting him.
"Yes, Khaleesi. It is around half a moon away on horseback. As you had ordered me I kept your dragons a secret. I only told them that we have a big piece of Dragon bone that we want to trade with them. The masters of the city are more than happy to trade with us. They have invited us to the city." Qhono reported to Daenerys.
"Hmmm, before we leave this place gather my other blood riders and Ser Jorah. This is going to be important. Meet me in my tent" Daenerys told Qhono before dismissing him.
With all of her Dragons in her arms, she went to feed them first. The little guys had woken up and were definitely hungry.
After feeding her Dragons she went back to her tent, where all the important people were already present.
"Before we start our journey to Qarth, there are a few things I want you guys to know about. Qarth is one of the richest cities in Essos. At least that's what I have heard in stories. But its rich masters are not its specialties. Magic and warlocks are the things that have made Qarth very famous. There are even stories and rumours that The undying and the throne of the thousand is present in Qarth."Daenerys spoke in Dothraki before explaining it in common language for Jorah.
"During the trade they might try to cheat us. In that case let them, as long as we get enough money to buy a ship and an army from Astapor there is no need to make those people curious about us. So no matter what, don't let them find out about my Dragons. I will try to keep them hidden. But there is a chance that their magical signature might give them away. That's why I won't be going inside the city. In the worst case scenario, some of you guys will go inside the city to retrieve our money. Do you guys understand ?" After explaining the reason of her cautiousness to all of them, she continued to explain her plan.
"A day before we reach Qarth, our group will be divided into two parts. The first one will go around the city to go towards the harbour. In this group I want all the women, children and horses. Most of our foods and other lifestocks will also go with them. There will be a few riders who will go with them to protect them.
You might camp a considerable distance away from the harbour but the first group will not reveal their presence until our second group meet them after making the deal. Currently we have around 89 riders except for you. Aggo, Qhono, you two will divide these riders into two parts. The first group will have 39 riders and Aggo, you will lead them. The rest of the riders will join me and the rest of you to go to the city to complete the trade. Remind every rider that will come with us to be cautious of any unknown thing." Daenerys explained the plan to them. She might not be an expert military strategist, but she had enough brain and knowledge to plan ahead. She didn't have enough memories of Qarth from the show. But even in this life she had read books about how rich Qarth really was. Unlike many other cities of Essos, Qarth was famous for its impenetrable wall and magic users. Due to its unique geographical position, no one in the last 300 years had attacked the city. While according to the books in pentos, Qarth didn't have a slavery system, they were also infamous for using mystic and dark magic and cursed objects. And since Dragons were magical creatures, she had every right to stay cautious. And besides, she did remember that someone in that city had tried to imprison Daenerys and her Dragons. So going into the city was definitely a stupid idea in Daenerys' book.
After the meeting ended, Jorah had commented that Daenerys might be overly cautious. But Daenerys had dismissed him saying that better be safe than sorry. She also argued that she had more knowledge of essos than him. So he should keep his advice to the time of war. After the death of her son, Daenerys was being cautious of Jorah Mormont. She was not sure if the guy was completely loyal to her yet.
It took them a day to gather everything and start their journey. Unlike the original series, this time Daenerys had a little more than 200 followers. It has been over a moon since they have settled there. So they took time to gather their things around the Oasis in the middle of the red waste.
