The halls were filled with music and cheers as the nobles talked and exchanged greetings all excited to see the first princess and her betrothed, their eyes all drifted to the doors with curiosity when the herald announced the arrival of the Prince of Dorne and his family including the new Princess of Dorne and their children. Eyes drifted to them this would be the first time many saw the Princess of Dorne she was a mystery to many as she never left Dorne but here she was dressed in expensive clothing and jewels her hair was in a single braid with flowers and golden pieces she looked stunning.

Some wondered how their princess would look in comparison to the beautiful goddess that had graced their halls. Soon the herald announced the princess, she entered the room her long hair in an extravagant half up half down style with braids keeping a bun in place while the rest of her hair flowed down her back in curls. The dress was beautiful the top half had jewels sewn into it, and it clung to the princess while the rest of the dress flowed freely. As she walked over to her betrothed and the two took their seats with wide smiles.

They suited each other many noted as the two spoke to the others at the table Daemon glanced at Rhaenyra and held back a smile as the youngest princess frowned at the display of intimacy between her parents. As he looked away from the younger princess Viserys contemplated what his eldest had whispered to him after she returned from the dragon pit. Rhaenys and Aemma agreed with Visenyra's idea. However only one of them knew why the princess pushed the idea.

Glancing at Visenyra who nodded the women seemed to have the same thought process. The king stopped paying attention for a while trying to wrap his head around why his eldest insisted on marrying a Martell and pushed for her sister's marriage to Daemon, but he held his tongue.

Looking up from his wine he was greeted with the sight of his daughter dancing with her betrothed bright smiles on their faces as the dance commenced in two moons, they would be married under the faith of the seven. Unknown to many the couple also wanted to marry keeping to the customs of Old Valyria.

Otto Hightower watched on with a frown the eldest princess was marrying a member of House Martell giving her more political power than before. He had hoped that she would marry someone he could subdue in power. He glanced at the Queen she had lost another child and would soon be trying for another hopefully she and this child would die together. Alicent was young and fertile she would give him a way to obtain the throne.

Unknown to Otto the dancing couple knew of his thoughts they could not stop Aemma from getting pregnant, but they could stop Alicent from getting into the Kings bed. As the dance ended, the two lovers sat down at the main table with smiles on their faces. Viserys however was in deep thought about his current hand.

Otto was becoming more and more suspicious, and his siblings pointed out their inclinations to send the man away but he was determined to prove to them that the man could be trusted. Visenyra knew of her father's lack of backbone and decided to let him suffer. Glancing at her sister she smiled and tilted her head to the dancefloor. Rhaenyra nodded and the two got up and walked to the dancefloor. Visenyra handed the musicians her music sheets and the two princesses made their way to the middle of the dancefloor. The song started slowly every movement was calculated and soft as the music started to speed up the two princesses started to move quickly twirling around each other with bright smiles.
