A fake Ned was brought forward a bag over his head

'This man has confessed his sins in front of gods and men' Pycelle said stepping forward 'he confessed the joffrey is the one true king, but what is to be done with this traitor your grace?' Joffrey waved to his people. cersei stood behind him confused on the body double. Joffrey smirked as the crowd started to erupt in shouts for neds head.

"As... As we sin..' pycelle continued seeing Joffrey loving the attention. 'So do we suffer. This man has confessed his crimes in sight of Gods and men. The Gods are just but beloved Baelor taught us they can also be merciful. What is to be done with this traitor, Your Grace?" Pycelle turned to Joffrey. Joffrey waved a hand settling the crowd.

"My mother wishes me to let Lord Eddard join the Night's Watch. Stripped of all titles and powers he would serve the realm in permanent exile. And my Lady Sansa has begged mercy for her father." He turned to look at Sansa, she smiled just slightly. "But they have the soft hearts of women. So long as I am Your King treason shall never go unpunished. Ser Ilyn, bring me his head!" With that the crowd erupted into cheers. Sansa lunged forward but Sandor grabbed her, keeping her back. The man, a bad tied over his head started to panic. He had been gaged before hand and couldn't speak but he squirmed. As the sword was brought above his head, a single motion, swish, it was through his neck. The mans clocked head lay on the ground, Joffrey smiled down to it. Cersei stood confused as Sansa sobbed for her father, pulling at sandor's arms. While sandor held sansa back from the madness he looked for Sasha but didn't see her anywhere. She was going to be heartbroken.
