Hothers Ravens, which he had to give over to the new King at the day after Aerys death, were quickly put to good use by Rhaegar Targayen, for he had many letters to send.

Maester, i have sent you a Lannister to be kept secure and out of sight till the time for the ceremonies had arrived.
Furthermore i have need of you here with me. Do not stall but instead come as soon as you can.

R.

The Maester that was staying on Dragonstone after he had received a personal invitation by the then Prince Rhaegar, to write down his experiences in the near and far East and to discuss many things with said Prince, looked from the letter to the bound young man laying at his feet.
He gave order to bring the prisoner into the most secure cell and then he followed his benefactors command.

Lord Jon Arryn stared at the letter and sighed deeply. What happened that Tywin Lannister of all people could forget himself like that. Never had Lord Arryn met a more proud and self-confident and controlled young Lord than Tywin Lannister. And he should loose so much of his ironhard control and attack the King?
On the other hand though, there were rumors the the old friends didn't got along anymore, so who knows what happened exactly. Lord Arryn decided that he would find out the truth in King's Landing.

Kevan Lannister showed his sister the letter of the King first and then the one of Gerion. Their youngest brother had confirmed the Kings words and had written that Cersei and Jaime would surely be helpful for their fathers health to get better.
Genna though looked sceptical and Kevan himself was not sure. Something was not right and he felt unsatisfied by not hearing from Tywin himself.

The Princess of Dorne looked over to her daughter Elia with a smile and she shared that smile with her oldest son and heir Doran. Then they both looked over to the youngest one in the room.
Oberyn looked back at them with a smirk and leaned closer to his sister.

Elia though was frowning and was reading the letter for the third time already. She didn't like the ominous words but all of her normally so smart family was only seeing the possibility of her being the King's Bride.
Besides Oberyn of course, for he would try again his best to make sure that she would stay unmarried.
Elia smiled gently at her unruly younger brother.

Steffon Baratheon blanched considerably while reading the letter and then closed his eyes in deep pain.
Such a friendship as it was once and this now was how it ended.
Surely there must have been unknown problems before but how could Tywin forget himself like that.
Poor Rhaegar, poor Rhaella.
Lord Baratheon decided that he would do his best to help them through these horrible times.
