The first thing Rhaelys did as soon as she entered the royal tent is look for Alicent. In the distance she sees her sitting amongst a few ladies. She walks toward them.
"Your grace, may I sit?" Rhaelys asks motioning to an open seat. Alicent nods her head,"Of course , princess."Rhaelys takes a seat.
"Princess Rhaelys Targaryen, eldest daughter of the king" Alicent introduced.
"So Princess Rhaelys when will we be hearing of a betrothal for you?"one of the ladies asked.
"Well my lady I have been going through some of the-" starts Rhaelys only to be interrupted.
"Will you be choosing your own lord husband?"asks another lady appalled.
"Yes. My father, the king, has let me have a choice in who my Lord husband be, as he would be King consort."Rhaelys says smiling gently.
Rhaelys picks a goblet off of a tray from a passing server, taking a sip from the wine.
"Well, we hope you choose well."Alicent says seeing her friend getting uncomfortable.
"Lady Johanna is reported to be upducted from one of Lord swans ships that sailed through the StepStones." says lady Ciara.
"What will happen to Lady Johanna?"asks Alicent.
"She is to be sold to a pillow house in the free cities, if you believe the rumors."
A man, walking with a cane approached the group of ladies. Rhaelys recognized him as Larys Strong, he walks with a cane because of his deformity, clubfoot.
"I fear the God's did not make me for hunting. Might I sit with you my ladies?"asks Larys.
"But of course, please join us. Larys Strong the youngest son of our master of laws Lord Lyonel."
"My Lord husband says that no king has ever been able to tame the StepStones for long. It's an inhospitable place suited only for savages."says a lady.
Rhaelys saw Rhaenyra and motioned for her to join. Rhaenyra wanted to walk away when she was stopped.
"Perhaps the Princess can give us some insight."lady redwyne said.
"Which princess my lady you're sitting in the presence of two?" Rhaelys pointed out.
"Princess Rhaenyra" she answered looking at Rhaenyra.
"Oh I don't know if how I could, I've never been to the stepstones" Rhaenyra said while walking closer to join the group.
"Your dear uncle is the mastermind behind this war is he not?"lady redwyne asks.
"We wouldn't know we haven't spoken to Daemon in years."answered Rhaelys.
"Since you supplanted him as heir." Rhaelys rolled her eyes discreetly. All this talk of the StepStones were making her frustrated.
"Daemon made his choices lady ciera. The princess was and is still more suited for the role."Alicent says confidently. Rhaelys sends Alicent an appreciating smile. Alicent smiles back.
"His made a mess and the king must put an end to it. Send fleets and men, and clear out the triachy for good."says lady Ciara.
"But the crown is not at war" says Rhaenyra.
"The crown is at war princess, though your father refuses to admit it. We've been dragged into it by your uncle and the Seasnake."
"And how have you served the realm lady redwyne, by eating cake?"asks Rhaelys. This lady was making her very frustrated, complaining about the StepStones as if she knew what was really happening there.
