Cersei took slow steps strong and confident as she walked to the iron throne the mountain behind her she ascended the steps.

'I now proclaim Cersei of the house Lannister the first of her name queen of the Andals and the first men protector of the seven kingdoms.' he crowned her. Everyone was deadly silent as the master stepped back and ersei took her rightful spot on the iron throne she looked at her siblings she wasn't happy she wasn't mad. She just stared up at them.

'Long may she reign'

'Long may she reign' they echoed.

'What is this?' Jamie asked as Cersei and Tyanna stood on a freshly drawn map on the floor

'This is what father has been preparing for us or whether he knew it or not.' Cersei told him

'What are you going to do memorize every town Lake Forest and mountain?' Jaime teased

'It is ours now we just have to take it.' Cersei reminded him 'you've been quiet since you came home you were angry with me?'

'No I'm not angry'

'You're afraid of me?'

'Should I be?' Jamie asked her

'Did you want a moment alone?' Tyanna asked

'Daenerys Targaryen has chosen Tyrion to be her hand right now they are sailing. Across the Narrows sea to try and take back her fathers thrown... our little brother the one you two love so much the one you to set free, the one who murdered our father and my firstborn son...' cersei reminded them as if they could forget. 'he now stands beside our enemies and give them counsel. He is out there ahead of an armada... where were they land?'

'Dragon stone they have deep water ports for the ships.' Tyanna suggested.

'and Stanis left the castle.' Jamie remarked

'and that was where she was born.' Tya moved over the map to Dragon stone

'And our enemies to the east and south, south are a brood of bitches and to the west of the old country another traitor and enemies to the north... Ned Starks bastard who has now been named the king of the north and that murdering whore Sansa stands by side.' Cersei informed them 'Our enemies are everywhere and we are surrounded by traitors you are the commander of the Lannister army now how do we proceed?'

'Winter is here.' Jaime told her, 'we cannot win a war if we cannot feed our men and our horses the tyrells have has the grain and stock-'

'Will the tyrells stand besides a dorthraki whore?' Cersei questioned 'and unsullied slave soldiers?'

'If Daenerys is winning no one wants to fight in the losing side. Right now we look like a losing side.' Jaime reminded her.

'Great vote of confidence Jamie.' Tya added.

'I am the queen of the seven kingdoms.'

'Three kingdoms at best if you think about it.' Tya added 'sorry ignore me.' she went back to walking around the map.

'I'm not sure you understand how much danger we are in all of us Lannister's have a target on our back!

I understand that whoever loses dies I understand that whoever wins could have a dynasty that lasts 1000 years!'

'Dynasties for whom? Our children are dead we are the last of us.' Jaime told her. 'You and me and Tya.'

;A dynasty for us then.; cersei agreed.

'We never talked about Tommen.'

'There's nothing to say.'

'Our baby boy killed himself.'

'He betrayed me he betrayed us both should we spend our days mourning the dead mother father and all our children?'

'Cersei-'

'I love them I did but they are ashes now and we are flesh and blood the last Lannister is the last one to count the three of us.'

'Even Lannister's cannot survive without allies.' Jamie remarked walking over the map again 'where are allies now? You saw what happened to Walder Frey and his family.'

'I heard. How could we ever trust a man like that?' cersei spat.

'We couldn't. He was a useless old coward but the freys supported us now they are all dead whoever killed them is not our friend and we need allies stronger, stronger better allies we cannot win this war!' Jaime informed her.

'do you think I didn't listen to father for 40 years and still learned nothing?' Cersei asked walking away.

'If the Mad King's daughter takes the iron throne she will destroy us and we know it. some of you are Bannerman of House Tyrell. Tyrell is an open rebellion against the crown with their house the Mad King's daughter has created gathered an army of soldiers, mindless unsullied soldiers who will destroy your castles in your holdfast. Dothraki heathens who will burn your villages to the ground rape and enslave your women and butcher your children without a second thought.' Cersei told them.

'this is how the Tyrells will be rewarded for centuries of loyalty... you remember the mad king you remember the horrors he inflicted upon his people. His daughter is no different her accomplishments are already legendary.' Cersei went on, 'she liberated slavers bay and when she grew bored of that she fed them to her dragons. It is my solemn duty to protect the people and I will but I need your help my lords we must stand together. All of us. We hope to stop her.'

Tya and Jaime stood to the side, proud of their sister, she was going to try like hell to win this. But dragons... even tya knew how this was going to end but she was going to try and be confident in her sister. Like she said, they were the last of the lannisters they needed to stick together.
