“When and if?”, Relena repeated, sharply turning her head towards the man. “They already have committed treason.”, the queen pointed out. Of course, she could understand why he wasn’t as eager to punish them, if she had been in his position she wouldn’t have been delighted about him trying to punish her alliances as well, but she would certainly not relent on this point.
Relena let out a soft sigh, before saying: “I will summon my uncles and talk to him, Stannis isn’t one to give in easily but… perhaps I can persuade him, he has never been too fond of Dragonstone and all lands I have to give are on the main land and I don’t think it would be the best of ideas to keep your dragon this close to people always.” The raven haired queen had been thinking about how to talk about his pet for quite some time now and this was probably the best of moment. She could imagine that this giant lizard was quite dear to him, but it was a danger one that could not be kept so close to cities.
The young stag forced a smile upon her lips as they entered the chamber of the small council. “My lords, Ser Barristan, grandfather.”, she greeted them, after Viserys had announced that they had news to share, as she made her way towards her seat at the head of the table. “I am delighted to see that you are working so eagerly.” For a moment Relena’s eyes roamed through the room, trying to read the men’s faces. “Of course it will be quite some time till the wedding, after all there is a lot that needs to be taken care of.”
When the Queen mentioned his dragon, he knew it would be along the lines of your dragon is dangerous. Keep it away. Viserys frowned at her words, he couldn’t say he was suprised or that he didn’t understand why she spoke about Rhaellion that way. Had he been in her place he wouldn’t want a large massive beast that could easily take down a city or town with just one wrong move. “Dogs can be a danger to people and yet we let them near people.” He pointed out “Yes, I know, dogs are smaller and easier to deal with when they do attack, but my point remains the same. All animals are dangerous and all animals can be tamed and trained.”
With Relena seated, Viserys awkwardly stood where he had when he had announced the news, the men around her seemed to him a mix of surprise and he knew on mainly Tywin’s face anger. “Yes, there-” Viserys found himself interrupted by Tywin and he held back a scowl, hearing the man speak about things that Relena had brought up.”Lands, tittles and the like. You won’t be getting Dragonstone back if that’s what you are hoping for” Tywin told Viserys, pointldy looking at him. “I’m quite aware of that, Lord Tywin.” Viserys told him before he took a chair and placed it right next to Relena, hoping to signal to Tywin and the others that this union was serious. “Which is why I won’t be asking for it unless Lord Stannis wishes to leave it.” His eyes looked to Relena, waiting for her to speak more on the subject.
