In doing so, her child is prophesied to become the 'Stallion who Mounts the World', a legendary Khal who will unite the Dothraki and lead them to numerous victories. Daenerys then took part in the 'Stallion Heart Ceremony', in which she had to consume a raw stallion heart without vomiting. By this time Daenerys, who was then fourteen, is pregnant with Drogo's child. Khal Drogo, and his khalasar, traveled to Vaes Dothrak (a city in the midst of the Dothraki Sea) to present his new wife to the dosh khaleen which was comprised of women who had been Khaleesi, but had been widowed.
