Dorne was prepared.
Prepared for the inevitable war that was to come. Doran sat by his desk, news from his spys in the capital told him that the Tyrell girl and boy had been arrested, which ment the reach wouod soon turn their backs against the Lannisters and would have to turn to other allies, for the Roses were not fighters.
"You wish to recruit the Tyrells for our queen? Smart but i saw Olenna Tyrell while i was in the capital, she is a smart woman, who wants to better the position of her family, i mean her grand daughter married two men and boy who call themselves king." Oberyn cautioned his brother, he agreed that the Tyrells were useful, but Olenna was always making plans to better the family.
"Well, that pretty much all familes want, to have more power. But if we manage to get them to see they will lose, maybe the queen of thornes can realize that siding with us is the best option even if it means there wont be a Tyrell queen." The prince said before he started to write a decisive letter.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Rhaenya had called for her small council, everyone was gathered in the great pyramid with Tyrion Lannister and Jorah Mormont at the bottom of the stairs, waiting for the queen's decision.
Jorah tried to speak but was immediately cut off "Your grace..."
"You will not speak." Daenerys spat, angry that the man who betrayed her was here once again.
"So you are Tyrion Lannister. Your family has spent the last years bleeding my country. And your father ordered the murder of my mother and siblings, not to mention mine. Lets not forget you used to be hand of the king to Joffrey Barathron. Why should i welcome you into my service?" Rhaenya finally speaks to Tyrion.
"Into your service? Your Grace we have only just met. It's too soon to know if you deserve my service." He tells her.
"So you came all this way to fight in the pits? Well don't let me stand in the way...." Rhaenya says but Tyrion starts talking.
"All my life i lived with the stories of how princess Elia Martell and her children were murdered, stories that inflicted fear to those who heard it.
Imagine how i was, when a few years ago the most well informed person I knew told me one of the girls was alive. Not only that but she had armies, wealth and four dragons. He thought she was our best, last chance to build a better world. I thought you were worth meeting at the very least." He finished explaining why he wanted to meet the Targaryen queen.
"I also heard a story.
A story of a smart man, he was hated by his own family and was even accused of murdering his nephew and king. His trial was a sham, so he called for a trial by combat. When he lost all hope a prince from Dorne,my uncle, stepped up and offered to fight for him. He fought and won, killing the man who murdered my family. He wrote to me saying that some justice was made and that he saved the one good Lannister. Now tell me what makes you worthy." Rhaeny told Tyrion how she also new of him.
Tyrion was to say the least shocked, he did not expect hert to know this much about him, yet Oberyn was her uncle and it did make sense he would tell her of how The Mountain had fallen, but he answered the question.
"When I served as Hand of the King I did quite well with the latter considering the king in question preferred torturing animals to leading his people. I could do an even better job advising a ruler worth the name."
Rhaenya looked pensive before looking at Daenerys and then to Jorah Mormont. "So you want to advise me. Very well. What would you have me do with him? I swore I would kill him if he ever returned."
"Whomever Ser Jorah was when he started informing on the khaleesi, he is no longer that man. I can't remember seeing a man as devoted to anything as he is to serving you and your aunt. He claims he would kill for you and die for you, and nothing I have witnessed gives me reason to doubt him. And yet he did betray your trust."
