@arrynheir Your Grace King Harrold, I hope that this letter finds you well. I admit that this is a particular line of correspondence I would have hoped to have established weeks prior, however our situation in the Westerlands continued to require my full attention - a fact which I know you will be graciously considerate of. I will not bore you with the details of ongoings which are out of your range of aid as King in the Vale, but times have been trying - as we expected them to be - and as you well know, the looming threat of the Greyjoy-Lannister problem continues to go unanswered. Though it remained never far from my mind that I was in need of beginning communications with you, I admit humbly that I did succumb to these stressors which are in most cases better left to the guidance of my husband, and was rendered a bit frail in recent times. I apologize for it. However, despite my slowed start, I believe wholly that we still remain firmly ahead and able to set forth the next stages of how to navigate the continued pacification of Westeros. By this, I refer to addressing the problem of the former Queen Regnant, Daenerys Targaryen. During the celebration at Fury’s Keep hosted by my husband, I happened upon a shocking discovery: Daenerys Targaryen, in our midst. Perhaps this was not new information to you, but I was taken aback by this revelation - it was until this moment that I was under the impression she continued to dwell in Meereen, where it was believed - by everyone, so far as I knew - that you sent her months prior. I approached her there, and perhaps naïvely I attempted to learn of her intentions. She betrayed nothing of great value, other than the knowledge that she is dwelling somewhere in Dorne, under the protection of the eldest Dornish Prince, Quentyn Martell. I cannot say what the involvement of King Doran may or may not be. I also cannot be certain of what King Stannis may or may not know, given the alliance brought on by his daughter and the youngest Martell. I cannot undo the words I have exchanged with you in the past. It is true that I greeted your ascension coldly, and for that you may assume the leanings of myself and His Grace in regards to this issue. But the reality lies to the contrary. In your time as King, we have heard of prospering in the Vale, and simultaneously we have heard nothing of terror brought on by dragons. As we all know in Westeros, Daenerys Targaryen is very much the child of her predecessors - and therein lies the problem. It is my belief that her cause is not simply for the retaking of the Vale, but for the retaking of Westeros and the Iron Throne. This cannot pass. I recognize that our paths have not always crossed kindly, and for that I apologize - my behavior towards you has lacked the courtesies you were due, and those that were instilled in me. However, I believe that we hold similar goals in mind: the maintenance of the current schema of regions and rulers in Westeros, and the end of the violence in the Isles led by Euron Greyjoy and Tywin Lannister. Though Westeros is a successfully split realm, we remain stronger when we stand together. I pray you think the same. While I was unable to garner the full trust of the former Queen, I believe she has an interest in striking some sort of alliance with Renly. I managed to procure a meeting, the date of which has yet to be known, between myself and Quentyn Martell. Perhaps Daenerys believes that should the Dornish Prince convince me of her cause, I will then convince His Grace to offer her military aid. Other than our council here, you are the only other person to be made privy to this information. I have chosen this path, because I would like for you to journey here to the Westerlands and prepare with me a line of questioning that I might deliver to Quentyn Martell. In this way, anything you may wish to know may be ascertained during this meeting, which I then will relay to you after he has left Fury’s Keep. Though I normally would not wish to involve myself in the complicated mess of deception, I see no other way to maintain Westeros as it is. I would ask that you keep this matter private, so as to avoid information reaching Daenerys’ ears through unsavory channels. We must squash her plot before it can be properly fostered into a true threat. I hope you will agree, and I eagerly await your response. Earnestly, Margaery Baratheon Queen of the Rock and the Reach
