A PLEASANT smile lined the former queen’s lips, but her hands were clenched tightly, nails biting into her skin. she was growing tired of the act, answering the endless onslaught of questions from the gathered nobility, reassuring them that everything was just fine, nothing to concern yourself over when they all knew she was lying through her teeth. “will you excuse me for a moment?” she said, cutting off the person she had been speaking to, rising from the table hurriedly and entering into another, presumably empty, room. her eyelids fluttered closed as she rested her head against the cool wall, savouring the brief moment of solitude before a sound broke the peacefulness.

WHAT had she been expecting when they’d invited the entirety of the realm to the city? she had supported it of course, wanted everyone to be there to see the crown placed on her son’s head, but underneath it all alyssa was still reeling from her husband’s death. the mysterious disappearance of rhaegar’s betrothed had been too close. she needed a break from it all, truly. just a day to let herself forget about the world that was slowly falling apart around her. the wine she’d ordered her servants to bring from the king’s private collection had done a little to alleviate her stress, but when a brief knock on her door sounded, followed by the entry of her younger son, her most troublesome child, she polished off the goblet with far less grace than befit a woman of her station. “rhaegar, my dear, please come in. share a glass with me.” she made a gesture to a nearby servant, commanding them to bring another glass.
