Closed starter for @ofsacredseas Setting: The Riverlands, Riverrrun. Prior to the departure to King's Landing for the coronation of Jaehaerys Targaryen.
“Lady Ayca,” the princess of the Riverlands greeted with a polite nod as she ran into the Mallister lady in one of the parlors of the castle. “I hope I'm not a disturbance,” she added, taking notice that the other woman had been leisurely working on a sketch. Iona had heard that Ayca had a talented hand when it came to painting, though she hadn't ever seen the lady at work or even looked upon any finished piece.
A council meeting was in session and meanwhile, the women were left to their own devices. Iona, for her part, had walked into the room in search of a book or two to take with her to the Crownlands for the upcoming journey. “That looks lovely,” she remarked, clear blue eyes landing on the half-drawn landscape that Ayca Mallister had been working on.
