To say that Sansa was unhappy with her situation would be a lie, but to claim that she was indeed, happy, well - that would have been the greatest falsehood she’d ever told. She was to be wed, to a good man from a good family with a good fortune and a beautiful home - it was everything she’d ever wanted as a girl. Perhaps Willas was no shinning Knight or chivalrous Prince, but what did that matter? What did that matter when she had seen Princes and Knights with her own eyes and found them cruel and weak?
She would be the Lady of Highgarden, she would rule over the Reach with her husband and have a family of her own - to replace the one stolen from her.
She wanted that.
And yet, she felt trapped. Free from her captors she may have been, but there was no guarantee that this was not yet another prison. Another cage where she would be dressed prettily and expected to sing pretty words and her family would still lay dead while Joffrey sneered from his monstrous throne.
She wanted revenge, she wanted Winterfell, she wanted home.
So it was with a guarded heart that she stepped down from her carriage and saw the beauty of Highgarden with her own eyes. Margaery could not have done it justice, for it was easily the most beautiful place she had ever seen. With it’s high white walls and lush gardens. Everywhere she looked seemed to be covered in some form of flora and she found herself without breath.
Though her wits quickly returned when she saw her welcoming party and she gave the brightest smile she could manage.
“It’s far more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. I am honored to be here.”
