The next days were awkward for Shireen. Nearly everyone in Dragonstone treated her like some sort of a living embodiment of the Seven-that-are-one. Servants and maids that had given her, as far as she remembered from her first life, always a wide berth, now asked demurely if they are allowed to touch her hands. People from the village upon the Island now asked to see her. A fisherman's wife had even brought her new born baby with her and kneed before Shireen, asking subservient if the young m'lady Shireen might please touch the baby's head and bless him.
Shireen did it. The woman left with a happy smile and in the next few days every mother of Dragonstone brought her children before the young Lady Baratheon.
Shireen sighed inwardly. She didn't really believed that her returning to live, twice already she sighed exhausted, had anything to do with the Sevens but as long as all others believed it, nobody would whisper of other things.
So she doesn't mention it when even her own mother was treating her more like a living Statue to be worshiped than a living child.
At least Ser Davos and his sons and Maester Cressen were just happy for her and treated her with the same kindness and love as before.
Her father was nearly unreadable. She had always known that he hadn't believed in the Seven since his own parents died. Shireen also liked to think that he never truly believed Melisandre's whispers in her first life but he also did a lot of horrible things in the name of the Red Lord.
Now though, her father often looked at her as if his world was shattered. He looked at her as if everything that he knew before was gone, as if he was doubting himself. Sometimes he tried even to smile at her. It looked a bit out of place at first but after the first few days the smile looked really nice and natural and he looked at her with love in the eyes.
Barely six days are gone by when a Raven arrives from King's Landing with the command from Uncle Robert that orders the Baratheons of Dragonstone to come to the Court.
It turns out that dear Cressen had send the news of Shireens wonder to King's Landing and Lord Arryn must have then made the King agree to this.
So, a week after Shireen Baratheon died through the flames and then immediately came to life again on her seventh nameday, she left Dragonstone with her father and mother on Ser Davos ship for King's Landing.
They arrived three days later and were welcomed at the docks by a huge crowd of people and Ser Barristan of the Kingsguard.
When Shireen stepped from the ship though, it again turned into an awkward situation. She sighed internally.
People kneeled before her. Women were holding her children up to her. All looked to the small girl with wonder in their eyes.
Shireen was gradually amused by all this. There had been brought a palanquin for her and her mother and a horse for her father.
Shireen denied to be carried. She walked to the Red Keep. The People that she passed by, kneeled when they saw her coming. Her father and her mother walked behind her. Ser Barristan was on her right side.
People stared, people bowed their heads, people took to their knees. Shireen smiled and touched hands and baby heads.
'Blessed One', were the shouts and 'Saved One'. 'Loved by the Gods One'.
These were the shouts that were to be heard in the whole City.
The Baratheons of Dragonstone arrived in the Red Keep on foot and bedecked in flowers that the numerous people that they had passed, had thrown on them. All in all, it was a incomprehensible situation for everyone around her.
But then again, Shireen thought, let them believe for that was beneficial for her Plans in the Future.
