Tywin sat at the head of the table Catalina sat directly to his right as the other masters followed suit. Tyrion and Cersei took the seats as well but Cersei moved her chair to sit at her father's left side. She would have pushed alina out of the way but she girls venom had hardened since the fire, cersei didn't want the icy woman to reveal that her powers had returned and she wanted to test them. so Cersei stared across at Alina, alina returned it with a deadly glare. Tyrion took his chair and moved it as well, it scraped along the floor to the opposite end head of the table. Catalina still refused to look at him her hands were better just scars that remained she could summon her magic she could access the powers of her ancestors as before but she wasn't a strong something was blocking her something was holding her back.

'Intimate. Lovely. The table And chairs are better than the old small council chamber conveniently closer to your own quarters. I like it.' Tyrion noted getting comfortable.

'What news of Jaime?' Tywin said looking around the table '20,000 unwashed northerners have known about the escape for weeks, collectively you control more spies and informants than the rest of the world combined.' Tywin reminded them getting more and more aggravated by the moment. 'do you mean to tell me that none of you have any motion of where he is?"

'We are trying my Lord' Varys said 'there's the-'

'Try harder.' he demanded 'what do we have then?'

'Robb stark and most of his Bannerman are in the riverrunn for the funeral of his grandfather Lord Tully and in the starks absence Bolton holds Harrenhal. Which would seem to make him Lord of Harrenhal in practice if not in-'

'The name suits our purposes, more on that useless pile of rubble the Lord of Harrenhal will make a worthy suitor for the widow Ayryn.' Alina told Petyr.

'For which I am extremely grateful to you my lord, and my lady...' Petyr said 'Lady Aryn and I have known each other since we were children she has always been positively predisposed towards me-'

'Make it work, Lord Baelish.' Alina snapped.

'Titles do seem to breed titles.' Petyr acknowledged.

'You will leave for the erie as soon as possible and bring lysa aryn into the fold and the young wolf can add the Aryns to the list of people who is taking up arms against him.' Tywin informed him. Alina didn't want anything to happen to robb but her loyalty was to tywin and Joffrey started a war that Robbs wasn't going to sit down from.

'Far be it for me to hinder true love,' tyrion added 'but Lord Baelish's absence would present certain problems the royal wedding may end up being the most expensive event in living memory. Summer has ended hard days are a head. It is not a good time to leave the kings crowns finances unattended.' Tyrion reminded them.

'Fully agreed' Pycelle said

'Which is why I'm naming you new master of coin' tywin told him. Alina looked over to him confused, a perfectly form brow raised in his direction. Tywin reached a hand over giving her shoulder a reassuring squeeze.

'Master of coin?' Tyrion questioned

'it seems to me that is the best position that suits your talents.' Tywin added smugly .

'No I'm quite good at spending money.' Tyrion reminded him, 'but a lifetime of outrageous spending has not taught me about managing it.'

'I have no doubt he will prove equal to this challenge.' Cersei told him
