Unexpected News
Kings Landing- The Nest
In a brothel previously owned by Petyr Baelish, an old man stands in front of a selection of beautiful women. The man paces in front of them with a lewd look on his face. The women remain unfazed but carefully watch the man. After taking all of Baelish's business Alyx made sure the "workers" were treated well and were protected by guards. They could also refuse a customer's fetishes if they couldn't satisfy them in that way. They of course would have to refer the man to another "worker" who was capable of fulfilling the customer's desire. The man in front of them is a septon who wishes for them to dress in a certain way. However this is all according to plan. The man stops in front of a young petite woman with red hair and grabs her face.
"This one will do." Says the old man with a smile. The manager of the establishment puts on a fake smile and nods. The old man takes the girl and throws her on the bed. The girl grits her teeth and bears with it. She displays her body and bats her eyelashes making the old man laugh and undress. She stays down as the man moves on top of her before inserting himself inside. The girl plays along and moans before the doors are abruptly busted open. In comes several guards who grab the man and throw him of the girl who begins to sob, playing her part. Secretly a guard passes the girl a big purse of coins with a wink making the girl smile.
"What is the meaning of this," ask the old man before standing, "I am a septon and a member of the Most Devout." His statement does little to the guards as they take the man naked and all down the hall. The man is thrown into the streets where people look to see the commotion.
"This man has raped a little girl!" Shouts one of the guards making the crowd gasp. The man stands with wide eyes.
"I most certainly did not." Says the man defending himself. The guards smile before turning to the brothel.
"It's okay he won't hurt you." Soothes a guard before a young red haired girl walks out of the brothel. The girl has her clothes torn and a bruise on her cheek. Her tears run down her face making the crowd livid. The septon looks at the girl confused. She looks like the same girl he had in bed. But this girl seems more childlike.
"H-He tried to rape me while I was visiting my sister." Cries the girl making the Septon shocked. Suddenly the red haired girl he was fucking comes running out and embraces her sister. She then turns to the septon and glares.
"You are supposed to be a septon not a rapist." Says the woman making the septon pale in fear. The crowd approaches the man with angry looks on their faces.
"N-No it's a lie, I swear." Says the septon never noticing the smiles on the faces of the sisters. The crowd approaches before the man screams as he is hit with a blunt object. The guards smile before looking to the sisters and smiling. The sisters smile before leaving the brothel and hopping aboard a wagon that leaves the city. The giggle about the gold they have obtained.
Red Keep
Alyx watches as his mother paces back and forth. Alyx sighs before popping a small pastry in his mouth.
"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Ask Cersei for what must be the hundredth time. Alyx sighs before looking to his mother.
"Yes I'm sure about this mother," says Alyx with a sigh, "Tommen will be perfectly safe I promise." Cersei looks to her son and sighs before hugging him.
"I'm sorry I'm just so worried." Says Cersei making Alyx nod his head and smile.
"Believe me mother, Tommen will be safe." Assures Alyx getting his mother to nod her head. Today is the day the announcement will be made, for Tommen and Sansa's engagement. Tommen is of course ready to do his part but Sansa is not yet aware of her impending engagement. Alyx has decided he will be the one to tell the girl. He is unsure of how she will take the news but he hopes for the best. As he thinks this the chamber doors open and in comes a running Tommen with tears running down his face.
"Big brother, mother." Cries Tommen before hugging Alyx who rubs his younger brother's head. Cersei approaches and hugs her son.
"What's wrongs Tommen?" Ask Alyx with a frown. Tommen sniffles before looking up to his brother.
"Joffrey was being mean and saying bad things about Lady Sansa." Cries Tommen making Alyx narrow his eyes. Cersei sees this and places her hand on his shoulder.
"Not to worry little one, I will talk to Joffrey about this okay." States Cersei getting a nod from Tommen. Cersei looks to Alyx who nods before she leaves the room.
"I don't want Lady Sansa to be hurt." Says Tommen now beginning to calm down. Alyx smiles at Tommen's gentle nature.
"Already becoming protective of your bride to be?" Ask Alyx with a smile. Tommen blushes before stuttering.
"T-that's n-not it, I-I'm just being polite." Pouts Tommen making Alyx laugh. Tommen blushes further before sinking his head into Alyx's stomach, trying to hide away. The two sit in peace for a while before Alyx sighs and looks down.
"You know I will need to get up right?" Ask Alyx making Tommen look up at him.
"Where are you going brother?" Ask Tommen with a head tilt.
"I've got to tell Lady Sansa of her engagement to you." Answers Alyx getting a smile from Tommen who gets up quickly making Alyx chuckle.
The Gardens
Sansa walks around the gardens with Shae with her. She is oblivious to her engagement to Tommen and still thinks that she will be marrying Loras. She spots Loras and smiles before running up to him.
"Ser Loras." Greets Sansa making the man turn to her before becoming stiff.
"Lady Sansa what a surprise." Says Loras clearly uncomfortable. Sansa sees him go stiff but ignores it. She hesitates for a little bit on what to talk about. Sansa is not stupid anymore, she realizes that their marriage is to get the north under the control of the Reach. She doesn't care as long as she can get away from Kings Landing.
"That is a lovely pin." Says Sansa hoping to start a conversation. Loras stutters over his words before looking at the pin.
"Well it's more of a small brooch really." States Loras making Sansa nod her head and smile. He turns his head away from Sansa making her confused.
"Are they different?" Ask Sansa making Loras think before shaking his head.
"I am happy to marry you Ser." States Sansa making Loras widen his eyes and nod.
"Yes uh so am I?" Says Loras more like asking. Sansa is confused over his reaction. Sansa looks to the ground thinking of something to say.
"I feel like I am in a dream that I don't won't to wake from." States Sansa making Loras chuckle a little.
"Those are the best types of dreams." Says Loras making Sansa smile.
'I've always dreamed of weddings ever since I was a boy." Says Loras making Sansa look to him. Loras is clearly uncomfortable being so close to her, but brightens when discussing the lavish wedding he's had planned – although Sansa, becomes suspicious when she realizes that Loras seems more excited by the food and the wedding joust than by her.
"And what about me?" Ask Sansa making Loras look to her and widen his eyes before smiling.
"And the bride of course," says Loras making Sansa smile, "not a wedding without a beautiful bride." Sansa blushes at his compliment making Loras internally sigh in relief.
"Have you ever been to Highgarden, my lady?" Ask Loras making Sansa shake her head.
"No but I hear it is very nice," says Sansa making Loras smile, "and to leave this place." Loras looks to her and nods his head.
"Yes this place is terrible isn't it?" Ask Loras making Sansa shake her head.
"The people are nice enough, it's just I wish to get as far away from Joffrey as I possibly can." Says Sansa making Loras nod.
Tyrion's chamber
Tyrion sits at his desk and thinks about his conversation with Varys about power. He realizes that Alyx has gifted him with some power and this helps him to act. Tyrion now knows the name of his would be assassin.
"Ser Mandon Moore huh." States Tyrion while thinking of his options. He of course knows that it wasn't Cersei so that rules one person out. The two most likely are Tywin, but he wasn't even there yet, and Joffrey who Tyrion is sure that he is the one. Still he is at a dilemma. If he tells Alyxandar this it might send his nephew in a rage. Alyxandar could easily kill Joffrey and the city would not care in the least. No Tyrion cannot allow that to happen, not for Joffrey but for Alyx. So for now he will keep this to himself and live with it.
Later- Sansa's chambers
Sansa stands in front of a mirror and smiles at herself. Shae walks around her and smiles at the reflection.
"You look beautiful my lady." Says Shae having grown fond of Sansa.
"Do you think they will like it?" Ask Sansa getting Shae to roll her eyes with a smile.
"Well I think the dress makers in Highgarden will be far superior." Says Sansa making Shae laugh.
"I hope to wear something beautiful for my wedding." States Sansa.
"Well I'm sure whatever you wear will be beautiful." Says Shae getting Sansa to giggle.
"What are the odds of them letting me invite my family?" Ask Sansa making Shae stiffen and sigh.
"I don't think that will happen my lady." Says Shae making Sansa look down. Shae begins to undress Sansa before the chamber doors open.
"Lady Sansa, Prince Alyxandar is here to see you." Says the maid making Sansa nervous. Alyx has been kind to her and has never harmed her but Sansa is still scared of him. Sansa carefully dresses herself with the help of Shae. She gives a nod and Alyx steps into the room. He is far taller than Sansa making her nervous.
"I am sorry to disturb you my lady." Says Alyx making Sansa shake her head.
"Please had I known you were coming I would have been ready." Says Sansa with a timid voice. Alyx looks at Shae before looking back to Sansa.
"Would you mind if I spoke with you my lady?" Ask Alyx while looking at Sansa who nods her head.
"Of course your grace." Says Sansa making Alyx sigh before looking to Shae.
"Alone." States Alyx making Sansa nervous and Shae look to Sansa.
"Why must you speak to her alone?" Ask Shae in a loud tone. Her tone makes Alyx look to her and narrow his eyes. He knows that this girl is someone his uncle cares about. Sansa sees him looking and panics.
"Shae, please forgive her your grace she is not from here." Says Sansa making Alyx look back to her.
"Yes I see, very well." States Alyx before softening his gaze. Alyx steps forward making Sansa shake.
"I am here to tell you of your engagement." Says Alyx making Sansa widen her eyes. She had thought that they wouldn't find out.
"Know that I entrust to you someone very precious to me." Says Alyx making Sansa confused.
"Tommen is a very gentle boy and has no blood on his hands." Says Alyx making Sansa widen her eyes in shock.
"He will do no harm to you and will cherish you forever." Assures Alyx making Sansa sit down and take in his words. All her plans are ruined now. She will remain in Kings Landing and marry Tommen.
"When this war is over you and Tommen will head back to your ancestral home." Says Alyx making Sansa look to him in surprise.
"Once there you will rule the north as your family has done for centuries." States Alyx making Sansa shocked and confused.
"W-What do you mean?" Ask Sansa making Alyx sigh.
"Tommen will marry into your family and become Tommen Stark," says Alyx getting a shocked look from Sansa who nods, "you will head back to the north and take back your lands."
"Rest assured that Tommen has no intention of ruling, so that will fall to you." Says Alyx making Sansa nod. She can't believe this.
"Tommen is not a leader or a politician but he will be accompanied by the second and third legions." Says Alyx getting wide eyes from Sansa.
"This is to ensure his safety as well as to help you retake your lands." Says Alyx. Sansa thinks over this plan. Tommen from what she has seen of him is young and kind. He has always been kind to her and also isn't the person to have ulterior motives. In essence Tommen would basically be under her control. But should any problem arise the second and third legions will protect him. It also means that the north will be under the crowns control.
"W-What about my brother Robb?" Ask Sansa while looking at Alyx who sighs.
"If your brother surrenders I will spare his life and let him rule the north." States Alyx making Sansa nod her head, "But you will still marry Tommen to unite our houses." Sansa nods her head as that would make sense.
"Your marriage is to unite our houses and nothing more," says Alyx getting Sansa to nod her head, "but I'm sure that you will love Tommen in time." With the houses united the fighting will hopefully stop.
"If I agree to this when will we marry?" Ask Sansa seeing no other option.
"You misunderstand, I am here to inform you of the engagement and your agreement is not necessary." Says Alyx making Sansa widen her eyes. So this was just to inform me? Thinks Sansa. Alyx sighs before looking to Sansa.
"You will be married in a few months." Says Alyx getting Sansa to widen her eyes and nod her head. Alyx begins to leave before stopping.
"I should warn you," says Alyx in a cold voice making Sansa flinch, "if any harm comes to Tommen I will burn the whole north to ashes." Sansa looks to Alyx who has cold eyes before nodding her head. Alyx leaves the room making Sansa lay on her bed. Shae begins to comfort her.
Riverrun
King Robb Stark and his advisors meet with "Black Walder" and Lothar Frey to discuss an alliance for his planned attack on Casterly Rock. The Freys carry Walder Frey's demands for an alliance, which includes a formal apology from Robb, the castle Harrenhal and all of its lands and incomes. Robb agrees to their demands not wanting to anger his potential allies.
"Also my father demands that Edmure Tully marry his daughter Roslin Frey." States Lothar making Edmure think that this is a joke. Robb looks to his uncle and nods his head.
"No way in hell." Says Edmure making the Freys look to him. Robb looks to his uncle before looking to the Frey and nodding.
"How old is she and could I see her first?" Ask Edmure hoping to insult them. However his question is ignored.
"We depart for the Twins in the morning," says Black Walder making Edmure glare, "we need an answer before we leave and the wedding not more than a fortnight thereafter or this alliance is at an end." Robb folds his hands together and thinks.
"Your father must realize that we are in a war?" States Brynden making the Freys snort.
"My fathers recent experiences has made him wary of long engagements." States Lothar with a smile making Robb look to him.
"He has every right to be," says Robb admitting his guilt, "We will take time to discuss this." Says Robb making the Freys look to each other and leave. As soon as they leave Edmure stands.
"No, no and guess what? No again." Rants Edmure making the group look to him.
"Why should I let that old rat choose by bride for me?" Ask Edmure before drinking more wine.
"At the very least I should be able to choose like you were." Says Edmure as he continues his rant. Robb looks to his uncle while Catelyn shakes her head.
"He's a proud old man and we have wounded him." Says Robb making Edmure look to him.
"Yes but I didn't wound him," Reminds Edmure making Robb nod his head, "My answer is no." Brynden stands and walks over to Edmure.
"You will listen to me and listen carefully." Says Brynden only for Edmure to turn to him with a cold look.
"By the laws of both gods and men are very clear uncle," says Edmure in a cold voice, "No man can compel another man to marry and you know this."
"The laws are of my fist are about to compel your teeth." Says Brynden before Edmure punches him away. Catelyn looks on shocked. Brynden looks up to as he didn't think Edmure would do something like that.
"Have I not made myself clear uncle?" Ask Edmure with a glare, "I will not marry and should you push it may accidently end up hurting you." Brynden steps forward only for Robb to stand.
"Enough!" Shouts Robb making the two stand down but still glare at each other, "It's alright you heard him." Brynden glares at Edmure before walking back to the table.
"If you refuse our alliance with the Freys will end." Says Robb making Edmure look away.
"He's wanted Edmure for one of his daughters ever since he was twelve," says Catelyn making Edmure nod his head, "and he won't stop wanting it now."
"So what should I do just marry a girl of his choosing?" Shouts Edmure making the other three look away from him.
"I have a war to fight and I need the Freys." Shouts Robb making Edmure glare.
"Yes well you should have thought of that before breaking your oath." Shouts Edmure making the group silent. Edmure turns away from Robb and looks out a window. Robb sighs before looking down and taking calming breaths.
"You said you wanted to make amends for the Stone Mill." Says Robb making Edmure look to him.
"No, you will not make this my amends, I will choose what it will be." Says Edmure with anger. He turns away from him making Robb sigh.
"Uncle I am losing this war," says Robb making Edmure sigh, "If we don't do this, we've lost." Edmure looks down and sighs again.
"I'll marry her, but this is the last thing I will do to pay for your sins." Says Edmure before leaving the room and ignoring Catelyn's calls.
Kings Landing
Alyx sits while reading a book. The day has been relatively quiet much to his thanks. The sun has begun to descend making Alyx sigh. He looks to the fire and reaches his hand out. The flames from the fire reach for Alyx's hand. Alyx grabs the fire before swinging his hand and lighting the candles across the room. Alyx looks at his hand that is on fire before the flames disappear.
As he continues to read he notices the flames flickering making him narrow his eyes. He looks down and continues to read as a man approaches from the shadows wearing the mask of the Warrior. The man dashes forward only for Alyx to throw the book at him. The man dodges and turns to Alyx only for a fist to hit his face. The mask shatters under the force and the man is sent flying back. Suddenly Alyx hears grunts from outside and more masked men come in his room. He looks behind them to see two dead guards. One man swings and misses before Alyx grabs his sword arm and twist. The man's arm breaks before Alyx uses the mans sword to slice open his stomach. He blocks another man and parries before grabbing the man's throat and breaking it. He takes the dead mans sword before blocking two more strikes and spinning and kicking one of them in the gut. The man bends over because of the kick before Alyx rolls over his back and kicks the other. Alyx takes his swords and shoves them into the fire before swinging and gutting the recovered man. The men look to see Alyx's swords are on fire.
"D-Demon!" Says one of the men while the others nod their heads.
"No I'm a dragon." Says Alyx before cutting off a man's head. With five more men remaining Alyx takes a breath before the fire goes out. Alyx moves to his left and guts one man before ramming his sword down the man's shoulder. He moves right and beheads another man and slices another man's throat. Alyx dodges a blind swing before throwing his sword into the shadows and smiles when he hears a death gurgle. Turning back Alyx grabs the last man by the throat as the fire illuminates the room again. He squeezes the man's throat with a blank stare.
"I'm guessing you were sent by the Faith to kill me." Says Alyx as the man chokes.
"I must thank you for you stupidity." Says Alyx with a smile making the man widen his eyes. Suddenly troops enter the room with Arianne right behind them. Alyx throws the man into the wall, knocking him out.
"Take that man and get him to talk." Orders Alyx making the soldiers nod their heads. Arianne rushes to Alyx and hugs him making Alyx smile and hug her back.
"Are you ok?" Ask Arianne making Alyx look to her and nod his head with a smile.
"Never better." Answers Alyx as the two kiss. A cough is heard making Alyx turn to his right and spot a man looking at them.
"My prince I have news." Says the man making Alyx nod his head.
"I-I'm sorry to tell you that Martyn and Willem Lannister have both been murdered." Says the messenger making Arianne gasp. Alyx becomes numb over the news. He remembers the time they spent training. The boys were kind and great fighters.
"Robb Stark has given us their bodies and says that he has punished those responsible." Says the messenger.
"Who was responsible?" Ask Alyx with his eyes shadowed. The messenger gulps before taking a breath.
"Rickard Karstark and some of his men." Says the messenger as Tywin and Cersei enter the room.
"Karstark as in Karhold?" Ask Alyx making the man nod his head.
"So that is why the Karstarks abandoned Robb Stark." States Tywin with a nod. Alyx walks forward before dashing out of the room with his soldiers trying to catch up.
In the Dragonpit Alyx runs to a clearing as Jörmungandr, Gevives and Baelfyre land sensing their father's anger. Alyx hops on Jörmungandr and they take off into the sky. Gevives and Baelfyre follow closely behind before a loud roar shakes the city.
Uh oh they are so dead... Well onto more pressing matters.
So I thought of the first scene when I saw twins when I was walking home. The two looked almost exactly the same with the height being different. If you don't know what happened I will tell you.
The septon was about to get his sin on with a girl (older sister). But the doors are broken down and guards (paid off) apprehended him and threw him out side where the people saw him. Then the guards use another girl (younger sister) to make it seem that a man of the Faith and a Most Devout tried to rape a little girl. The crowd already angry with the Faith did not need much convincing. The girls of course were in on it and were paid with a lot of gold.
So Sansa has been told of her engagement and is not sure how to feel. On one hand she will have most of the political power on the other hand Tommen will have the army. It also ruins her plans to get away from the Lannisters but I believe that Tommen and she can get along.
With Edmure I decided to make him react like I would with being forced into a marriage with Walder Frey's daughter. Lets be honest there isn't anyone in the game of thrones Fan universe who could possibly like the man if he were real… I mean I don't like him in the story. Edmure was angry and even pointed out Robbs betrayal. But in the end he accepted his fate with protest.
Now the Faith has begun to attack Alyxandar directly… those poor fools. But now Alyxandar has a prisoner that can tell him all the Faiths dirty little secrets. In turn Alyxandar will tell the people and bam instant conversion.
Sadly Willem and Martyn have passed and Alyx is livid. Watch out Karstarks you've got a dragon on your ass.
