"I noticed you werent eating at supper." Larys remarked after the kids were tucked in, ''Did you want some vegetables and not just cake?" Blyana brought a hand to her stomach. "are you not feeling well?" 

"I'm... having morning sickness I believe." Blyana countered casually and Larys stared back at her. "I dont know why they call it morning sickness though, it is all damn day." Blyana offered and larys held her to him. 

"You are prengnat?" 

"Yeah, or a weird flu that over took my moons bleeding." She mused. 

"Oh Blyana!" It was a wonderful night, until they woke in the morning and Viserys was dead. 

''Who knows?'' Otto questioned as Alicent had told him of Viserys passing.

''My handmaiden, Talya. Some of the servants.'' Alicent answered. "I saw him last night... before he..." Alicent leaned back in the chair, a shaky breath on her lips. ''He told me he wished for Aegon to be king." Alicent relayed and Otto stared back at her from the fireplace. ''It is the truth. Uttered with his own lips. His last words to me and I was the only one to hear it. And now he's dead.''

''What is it that could not have waited an hour? Was Dorne invaded?" Tyland mused as they gathered around the council table.

''The King is dead.'' Otto told them all. Alicent sat at the kings seat silently. Tears in her eyes her hands clasped on the table. ''We grieve for Viserys the Peaceful... our sovereign... our friend. But he has left us a gift.'' Otto went on calmly. ''With his last breath, he impressed upon the Queen his final wish: that his son, Aegon... should succeed him as Lord of the Seven Kingdoms." There was a small sigh of relief as the council was eager to get this started for Aegons rule.

''Then we may proceed now with the full assurance of his blessing on our long-laid plans."

''Yes. There is much to be done, as we've previously discussed." Otto agreed. Alicent stared at them in disbelief.

''Now, there are two among the captains of the City Watch that remain loyal to Daemon.''

"Let us replace them... Lord Lannister." Otto encouraged

''Good morning my love." Blyana coed as she helped Lucia get dressed and ready for the day. 

"Blyana, something has happened." Larys remarked coming into Lucias room. 

"What?" Blyana countered as he moved to a portrait, he pulled it open and Blyana's jaw dropped. 

"I need this sealed still," Larys tsked. 

"Um, hello hidden passageway?" Blyana declared. 

"Cool!" Lucia declared. "Where does it lead?" she peered through Larys legs. "Lets go find out, come on, come on!" 

"The king is dead." Larys corrected grabbing Lucia's hand. 

"And my father is putting Aegon on the throne." Blyana realized. Larys nodded. "How did you- never mind. I dont want to know how you know things." 

"Probably for the best." Larys agreed. 

"We are circling back to the hidden passageways though." Blyana informed him. 

"Can we go through-" Lucia begged. 

"nope, come on." Larys corrected.

''It is our fate, I think, to crave always what is given to another. If one possesses a thing, the other will take it away." Helaena remarked.

'' Yes, Princess.'' The handmaiden agreed, she sat next to the babe as the door opened. Helaena looked back to her need point.
