House of Slayers

DRIFTMARK

DRIFMARK

Alon, Clara, Zane, Kiera, Arlen, Daario, Alessa, Nira, and Elena are attending Laena's funeral.

Vaemond(High Valyrian): We join today at the Seat of the Sea to commit the Lady Laena of House Velaryon to the eternal waters, the dominion of the Merling King where he will guard her for all the days to come.

Elen nuzzles her head into her mother's chest with a sad expression. Daario has his arm around his sister's shoulder.

Vaemond: As Lady Laena embarks on her final voyage at sea, she leaves behind two lawful daughters on land. Though their mother will not return from her voyage, they remain bound to her by her blood. Salt runs through the blood of the Velaryons. Our blood is thick. Our blood is pure. And it will not be diluted.

Arlen frowns her brows in confusion seeing Daemon silently laughing to himself. Otto is there with the Hand of the King pin attached to his chest.

Both Rhaenyra and Alicent turns their eyes and stares at Clara as the coffin is pushed into the sea, sinking breath the waves.

HIGH TIDE

Everyone is gathered in the courtyard but the atmosphere is tense and awkward. Rhaenyra makes her way into the courtyard making her way through the crowd, locking eyes with Clara as the two stares at each other for a long moment.

Zane notices Larys Strong staring intently at Alicent

Zane: Larys Strong has been staring at the Queen the entire time he's been here.

Alon and Clara looks through the crowd seeing Larys looking towards Alicent. Clara feels a feeling of jealousy running in her veins.

Keira: I have never liked Larys. He has a weird vibe.

Alon: No one does, my love. He's a weird little cunt.

Zane: But why is he eyeing the Queen like he wants to eat her?

Clara: I do not know

Alon: I shall have Ser Paxton follow him, see if he can't find out anything we should know about the new Lord of Harrenhal.

Keira: What? Him? He's the new Lord of Harrenhal?

Criston is eyeing the Gastons with a smug evil smirk on his face, sharing a look with Otto, both wearing smug smirks.

Arlen and Daario are standing beside each other watching Heleana kneeling down holding a bug in her hand.

Daario: She has nothing in common with her cunt brothers

Arlen: She's their sister

Daario: Yes but Helaena's the only one I like.

Arlen: You marry her then.

Daario: And risk Nira cutting off my balls? I rather like my tender bits.

Arlen: Aegon wants the Queen to betrothed him to Heleana.

Daari: To his sister?

Arlen: You know Targaryens like to keep their blood pure.

Daario: Targaryens are weird.

Nira walks up and kneels down beside Heleana who smiles at her

Heleana: Where's your mantis?

Nira: I left him at Backton's Keep. Didn't want to bring him on the journey.

Daario smirks eyeing a servant walking past them, she eyes him up and down

Daario: We do have one thing in common. We both fancy creatures with very long legs.
