Arthur stood back silently listening to the rain, and watching it fall around them, the castle was in shambles there were several holes in the ceiling in the room with the painted table. It rained on them as Aegon whipped away all the stone wolf statues to the north that represented 35'000 men, he did so in a rage and the statues tumbled to the floor.
"In every war, men are lost." The maestor said and Aegon gave him a hard look with Aegon's red stained face.
"IN WAR! NOT AT A WEDDING! DON'T TELL ME MEN ARE LOST IN WAR! I KNOW OF WAR I HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN WHEN THIS CASTLE WAS LITE LIKE OUR FUNERAL PYER! THAT WAS WAR THE FOULEST KIND BUT IT WAS STILL WAR! THEY KILLED MY GOOD BROTHER! THEY TOOK MY SISTER! THEY HAVE HER BABY SURROUNDED AT RIVERRUN!" Aegon yelled his fury.
He turned to Arthur. "Write Lord Valyrin, tell him to demand Lord Baratheon show us loyalty, if he is with us he will march to Riverrun and save Jacaerys Stark!" Aegon said he was desperate.
"Perhaps you should write Daenerys yourself as well, inspire family loyalty." Arthur suggested and Aegon nodded.
"After you already gave the girl Dragon eggs." The maestor mumbled.
"They need a mother." Aegon said quietly he was sure that was what was missing that was why he could not birth these dragons they needed a Targaryen mother and Rhaenys could not help him with this, she wrote him of her new pregnancy and she was afraid the child could not survive the fire. She wrote him of her love for Robb and their son and how happy they were even in the middle of the war.
"Well let's focus on the good news." One idiotic lord said. "it is great news that-"
"GET OUT!" He finally screamed at his men and Arthur watched them all clear out. Before approaching his young king as he went to the floor picking up a broken wolf statue.
"They are going to threaten her Arthur, they are going to ask me to stand down in exchange for her life she is there hostage!" He cried.
"You cannot." Arthur said simply.
"She is my sister!"
"I know."
"She is pregnant, they killed them at Dinner Arthur, at a wedding feast!" Aegon cried and Arthur patted his side letting him let it out.
"What will you do with them, the people who betrayed them the people who killed Robb Stark when you are king?" Arthur asked.
Aegon looked up at him for a second, Arthur always thought Aegon had his mothers gentleness but he saw that Targaryen Glimmer in his eyes.
"I will burn them alive like the Lannisters tried to do to me." Aegon decided as he said it.
"Good, I know you are in pain, but remember that pain, remember who put it there, burn those who hurt you when you get to the throne, but never let go of your goodness." Arthur told him as he hugged the king and pulled him up.
"I have to tell Sansa, I want her to hear it from me." Aegon said softly.
Arthur smiled because that was his boy. He no longer worried about Sansa and Aegon falling for each other they had bonded but not in the normal way pretty girls and crown prince's bond. They had a good friendship every so often Aegon would walk the girl through what was left of the garden but he was more concerned with his dragon eggs an war plans then the pretty red head and Sansa thought he was very handsome but was concerned by his obsession with the dragon eggs as she saw it, it frightened her a little and he still did not like there age difference, he saw her as no more than a child.
"Sansa?" He called when he entered her chamber passing the buckets that collected the dripping water from her chamber to find her sitting on the window seal with Lady loyally at her feet. She turned to him and he saw her read eyes to match his own.
"How?" He asked.
"My maid told me, and then I went down to the hall to listen to all the people talking about it, it's all anyone is talking about." She said softly.
"I'm sorry." He said softly.
"She said the rumor is they sewed my brothers direwolf onto his head is that true?" Sansa asked hurt.
Aegon looked at the pain in her blue eyes, Robbs death was an insult to him of course but he didn't know him for much more than his handwriting and military skill, but he knew people who loved him dearly like Sansa and Rhaenys.
"As far as I've heard it is true." Aegon admitted.
"And they cut my mother's throat to the bone."
"I am so sorry for your loses truly." Aegon told her.
"And your sister, they made her ride to the capital with him, with what they did to my brother, they tied them to the same horse and shouted as they-" Sansa started her own words made her cry.
"Why are you saying these things Sansa?" Aegon asked as a tear went down his face.
She stood up from her spot going to him.
"Because I want to know what you are going to do about it?" She told him, he knew she was being brave and being this honest with him when she was used to having to lie about her true feelings in Kingslanding.
"I am going to make them pay, I'm going to make them all pay." He promised.
"From this broken island?" Sansa asked.
"Come with me Sansa I want to show you something." Aegon said he decided she should know his good news the only reason he didn't want to throw himself from the chamber of the painted table. He took her up to the battlements of the castle or what was left of them. She went with him even accepting when he offered her his arm because of how much of it was broken.
"What are we doing is it safe to be up here?" She asked but he pointed out into the distance and she no longer cared she wanted to stay and watch for at least an hour maybe two.
"Do you see them Sansa?" Aegon asked and her eyes were wide as she nodded as sad and crushed as she was at the loss of her family hope sailed towards them in the form of a Dornish Armada.
