Even as Otto basically admitted to his treason while arguing with Lord Corlys, King Viserys was daydreaming, a fairly usual occurrence for the King who felt like his advisors did well enough to rule in his stead.
Even though he was certain that his Queen would soon provide him with a son, he also had been growing a bit bored of her and had been thinking that she was quite a bit less attractive, even before they left for Mercia. Now that she was burnt, eyeless and handless, he could barely stand to look at her and he had begun considering his options.
He knew that he could do as his brother had once been prone to do and most of his Lords did and seek whores on the Street of Silk but he was the King and so that was below him. He deserved to bed the Realm's absolute best and beautiful women of the finest lineages. It was his right.
Perhaps he would go region by region and have every Lord bring all of their maiden daughters over the age of 10 to court. Then he could peruse the noble beauties and select the most beautiful of them to take to bed. Yes it would mean that he would be taking the maidenhood of many young noblewomen but who wouldn't see it as a huge honor to lose their virginities to the King? Surely even their fathers' would agree to that.
Yes, that is what he would do. It would not matter if a girl was engaged or not as if he selected her, he would bed her.
Then he thought further, perhaps he would tell his Lords that each maiden he selected would spend 1-3 moons in his bed and then another 3 in court but not his bed. If the girl conceived his child, he would marry her and make her a Queen. After all, he did need a beautiful young Queen to stand at his side to show his power and, if it so happened, that he ended up with many beautiful young Queens all swollen with his heirs, then so be it. It would be a delightful look for him to be surrounded by dainty and elegant girls all showing the realm just how fertile he was.
The King thought further and quickly realized that surely some of the Realm's most lovely and well bred young women were already the wives of his Lords'. This would mean that he couldn't pluck them or take them to wife. However, he decided that it did not mean that he couldn't have them.
He would have his Lords bring their wives to court as well. Any woman that he desired would be put into confinement for three months and if she proved that she did not carry her husband's child, he would take her to bed as well. These women would become his mistresses and would carry his Royal Bastards. Yes, he would acknowledge all of the children born to his mistresses like he would acknowledge all of the children born to his wives. Again, he did not see how his Lords would protest this. Their wives would be honored among women to take his Royal Cock and bare his bastards. Yes, it might mean that ultimately his bastard sons would wind up inheriting the lands belonging to their mother's husbands, but how would that be a bad thing? His seed and legacy would grow and spread beyond that of any other King ever had and his daughters would marry his Lords and their brothers further spreading his legacy.
