CHAPTER 2, THE VICTORY OF NONE
"Be welcome! I know many of you have traveled long leagues to be at these games. But I promise you will not be disappointed. When I look at the fine knights in these lists, I see a group without equal in our histories." Alaenna listened to her father's speech with great pride.
Her gaze towards the crowd in front was quickly redirected as Rhaenyra's quick-heeled steps echoed off the wood. Watching her duck between people almost made her laugh. Rhaenyra promptly passed her, sitting on the other side of Alicent.
"And this great day has been made more auspicious by the news... that I am happy to share: Queen Aemma has begun her labors!" The crowd cheered, applauding the news. "May the luck of the Seven shine upon all combatants!" The start of the tourney had only ramped up the energy of the surrounding crowd.
The sounds comically changed from loud cheering to ah's and oh's as poor knights were flung from their horses. Alaenna had never been able to enjoy the acts of needless fighting, but if it kept the family's appearances up and the common folk entertained, how would she stop it.
