Chapter 2: Meetings

Lord Tywin

I am sorry to inform you that your son Tyrion Lannister is dead. My bird were keeping very closely to them and the have informed me that they were attacked by men in masks. No one survived and that included you son. Please take my sincere apologies and I hope you are well.

Lord Varys.

Tywin Lannister read the letter and did not feel anything. Not even a little bit of regret that his son. His own flesh and blood had died. He never cared about his son and he hated him for killing the woman that he loved his ray of sunshine. Its a relieve that this monstrosity is gone from the world and that he would not have to feel shame because of him. Tywin hid the letter in his desk so no one would find it especially Jamie because he would want to postpone the wedding and he can't have that. They were already on their way. 3 night ago they have made it to Casterly Rock and their guess should be here in a weeks time. This wedding will happened and Jamie will produce heir that will have a Lannister name and will rule the Rock in future less. Its a good thing that Tyrion was convicted it only bough benefit to the family. Tywin leaned back on his chair and for the first time in a long time he smiled


A young girl was sitting on her horse and she was very uncomfortable. Not because she was on the horse. She really loved horsed and riding and she could do it for days at a time but because of he dress. It was too tight on her and it was making her breathless. The heat was not helping either. For what it seemed like a hundredth time she tried to pry the dress away from her body. When she couldn't she sighed and looked at the castle that they were nearing too. This is going to be her home from now on. It was not an ugly place. It was the opposite. It was very beautiful. The sun was shining and the sea was a beautiful turquoise colour and the castle was very beautiful. She will be the lady of of Casterly Rock and she will have to marry the Kingslayer Jamie Lannister. She did not care that he had killed the Mad King. He had done the country a favour by killing him but that does not change the fact that he killed a king the man that he was supposed to protect. She will still have to marry him. Of course she had hear other rumours like the fact that he laid with his sister and that her children were actually his but her parents raised her right. She was not going to believe those rumours she will make up her own mind about it. About him

She was sad that she had to leave her home on Bravos and her family and especially her two younger brothers at home. She will miss them and teaching them how to fight sword and spears and how to use a bow. She will miss running around with them and having the cook scold them but then laugh at their antics. She would miss running around them to try and catch them for taking her stuff. The most she will miss her dear parent and their bickering. She will miss all of it. She wanted to cry at the though but she was strong, she can't cry about it anymore.

She knew that it was her time t get married. She was starting to get old now at 19 name days. The idea of marriage never appealed to her. She was too wild and too carefree for that. She couldn't imagine watching what she had to say and do because it would be to expected of her. She did not want to be around just to make babe. It was not who she was but she still had to do it. It was not up to her. She was going to marry a man who is twice her age.

Once again she tried to pry the dress away from her but it was no use. Her handmaid had tied it to tight. She hated that dress when they will get there she will rip it to pieces.

"Will she stop fidgeting so much you will fall from the horse." she hear a low and raspy voice and a man on a horse rode next to her. It was her father who had a goofy smile on the face. " I told you to sit it a carriage it would be more comfortable for you with that dress on." she said and his daughter glared at him.

"Who do you think I am to sit in a carriage some Queen. Father I will never ride in a carriage." she said and gave her father a cocky look.

"Well of course not. I forgot that I has a son with a body of a woman. Really you should be born as a boy." Alec Pompeii said to his daughter with a big smile.

"I know the Gods have made a mistake giving me the wrong body. But I blame it all on you father. Have you not wished for a daughter so much then I would be born a boy."

"I already had four sons so I apologize if I wanted a little princess for myself who will look at me with those beautiful eyes and learn how to dance and needle work but no I was given a daughter who would rather widdle a sword and play in the mud. I don't know why the Gad have cursed me with a child like you." Alec said

"Well you will not have to bother with me any more since I will be wed in a few short days." she said with a hint of resentment in her voice.

" Katherine you know that if I had a choice I would not make you marry him but Tywin Lannister had saved my life once and I owed him ad favour and he wanted our children to marry. I can't break my word you know me." Katherine signed and looked down for a second to collect herself. She knew that her father would never marry her off to just somebody. Her father was a man of her words and she knee dad. Katherine looked at her father who was now looking at the road ahead of them. He made a presence. He was a big man, her was very tall and burly. And he intimidated everyone just coming into the room. He was olive skin dark brown hair that was tied back and dark brown eyes. She was a hard man fighting many wars but with his family he was always gentle and caring. He was also very playful and everyone loved him and loved working for him because he treated them like family. He liked to give back to his community and even though he was the the richest man in Bravos he was not vain and he did not let it go to his head.

"I know father I just don't want to leave you and mother and my home." Katherine said and smiled sadly. Alec looked at her daughter still in awe at the beauty that was sitting in a horse next to him. He still remembered that beautiful babe that he held in his arms the first moments in this word. How she stopped crying when he held her and how she looked at him with those doe eyes and captured his heart. That little girl was long gone and in front of him was a woman her fiery red hair matching her fiery personality. Her freckly complexion from spending too much time on the sun and those brown eyes that matched his. She was a beauty and that Jamie Lannister was a lucky man to be marrying her.

"Don't play that game with me. You just don't want to leave you sword master and those marches that you always go to. You will not miss me." Alec said jokingly to his daughter

"You are right father I will not miss you at all." they both become quiet for a couple of minuted just content listening to the waves.

"Can I kill him if I am not happy?" Katherine asked her father jokingly with a hint of seriousness in her voice and her father picked up on it.

"Child don't be talking thinks like that. The wrong people may hear you." Alec said with a hard look in his eyes.

"So what I am going to be in a unhappy marriage then. What if I will be miserable." She said serious now.

"Child give it a chance first. Don't go assuming that it;s all going to be bad from the start. What if you fall in love with him? He may be a good man." he said looking at his child

"What if I am miserable? What if he is going to hit me?" Katherine asked worriedly.

"Then contact me and I will make sure that he disappears from the face of the Earth." Alec said and Katherine smiled. Even that she will be separated from her family she will not be alone.

"How long is it going to take to get to the bloody rock." Both of them heard another vice say. It was very melodic. They looked at the carriage that was next to them and another red head poked her head from the window her violet eyes piercing angrily at them. It was Kira Pompeii the wife of Alec and the mother of Katherine. She had enough of the journey and wanted to take a proper bath.

Alec looked at his wife with eyes full of love and blew and kiss to her. She was far from amused.

"Don't go blowing kissed at me My Lord I am not happy. I just want this bloody journey to end all ready." She had a frown on her face but her eyes were shining with love for her husband.

"How is our daughter supposed to learn how to be a proper lady when her mother uses that kind of foul language." Alec said to his wife with a scolding look.

"I was a proper Lady until I married you and I can still be a proper Lady when the situation requires it to be and I did not hear you complaining about my foul language last night." she said and Katherine looked at her parent with a disgusting look.

"You are both disgusting and I don't want to hear anymore of this conversation. Good bye." Katherine said and rode off ahead. Her parent laughed and continued the journey. They had to meet their daughters future husband today.
