After being on the road for a moon Lyarra was happy to get out of the carriage but she was also nervous they had finally made it to King's landing. In Fourteen nights She will be the wife of Maegor Targaryen and Queen of the Seven Kingdoms. She snaps out of it when she hears her younger sister Eleanor say "Look it's the castle." She says clapping her hands to see a castle other than the Winterfell Lyarra smiles but when she looks at her step mother she sees the smiles that every woman gives other women before they marry.

One of the announcers says "Welcoming Lord Rickon Stark lord of Winterfell and warden of the north. Lady Daphne Stark and their children Benjen Stark Eleanor Stark and Benjen. With Lady Lyarra Stark." the Stark walk out of the carriages or get off their horses and walk together in front of the Lord Hand Harroway "Lord and Lady Stark Welcome to King's Landing." He says to them "I know you have had a long journey so we have set up your rooms and the King said he will speak to you my Lord tomorrow after you and your family had time to rest." Harroway shakes Lord Stark's hand "Aye thank you." and the hand leaves the Starks and they all go to their rooms that they were told to go in.

When Lyarra was shown her room she couldn't believe it. It was so beautiful but it was not like her room in the north. She started to walk into the room that her younger sibling will stay in and sees her step mother there Lyarra smiles when she sees them she sits down and plays and talk to her younger brother and sister about what they will do while they are in king's landing but then they hear the doors open they see Queen Visenya walk into the room both Lady Stark and Lyarra bow down to her and say "Your majesty." when they both look up at her they see her looking only at Lyarra "So you will be the lady to marry my son?" She asked Lyarra nodded her head "Yes your grace I'm honored to be marrying his grace." Visenya smiles a little "Do you mind if I have a look at you?"

Lyarra was shocked to hear this but knew that it would happen sooner or later "Of course your grace." Lyarra stands trying to look nice for the Queen "You're small but have good hips for childbirth and you do have a pretty face. In the North what did you do?" Lyarra then says "I spend a lot of the time either helping the orphans or helping my lady stark with my younger siblings I also sew and draw in my free time." Queen Visenya looked at her again "Is there anything else that you did?" Lyarra was shocked. Normally the lady loved hearing things like that but this is the warrior queen Visenya dragon rider to Vhagar.

"I also spend time with my dire wolf Strom and riding horse's, I also practice using my bow and arrow." Lyarra hoping that will please the Queen "You have a Dire Wolf?" "Yes, your grace." "And you use a bow and arrows?" the Queen questioned Lyarra again "Yes your grace." Queen Visenya then smiled at the girl "Maybe you will make a fine wife for my son." She said then she leaves Lady Stark and Lyarra bow their heads as she leaves and then Lady Stark looks over to her Step daughter "Well done." Lyarra smiled and then heard her sister say "Whoa." This made Lyarra smile as she continued to help her step mother with the children.

In Maegor private rooms

Maegor smiles to himself as he sees another maid getting her clothes off the floor and tries to leave his room before people see. Once she leave he gets out of his bed and gets his pants on and put a robe over himself and pours himself some wine he hears the door of his room open again "Well i see that you are still sleeping with that maid" His mother says in her cold tone "what about it?" he questioned "I just spoke with your future wife." Maegor rolls his eyes and Visenya continues "She is a beauty like everyone has said, she will make a good queen." Maegor turns to his mother and gives her a glass of wine "Good."

The next morning

Lyarra wakes up and has breakfast with her family while she is eating. Someone wakes into the room and gives a letter to her father. Rickover takes the letter and opens it "The king has asked me to join him in the small council meeting" Lyarra looked down at her food for a moment and forgot why she was in the capital.

The rest of the day she and her younger sister walked around the castle gardens. coming from the north they both haven't seen so many flowers in one place "Ly?" "Yes El." Lyarra looks down at her sister "Why do you have to stay here with the king, why can't you come home with us?" Lyarra kneels down and holds her sister's hands "because I am to marry the king and I would need to be where my husband lives." She says a small smile Eleanor nodded her head and Lyarra kisses her sister cheek and stands up to walk around the gardens for a bit longer waiting to hear what her father and the king are talking about.

The small council meeting

In the meeting everyone is talking and then the doors open and they all see Rickon stark. "My lord Stark come sit." Harrows says to Rickon, Rickon bows his head to everyone at the table and then says "My King" Maegor then says " Lord Stark it's been awhile" Rickon nodded his head "Aye, I have taken care of the north for you your grace." Maegor only nodded and then carried on with the small council meeting.

After the small council meeting is over Maegor asked if Rickon can stay to talk "Aye, your grace what do you want to talk about?" Rickon questioned Maegor and walked a little closer to him "The marriage between me and your daughter Lady Lyarra." Maegor pasuses " I know it was strange that I ask for your daughter's hand but when I heard of her beauty and kind heart I thought she would make a good wife and mother and queen." Maegor says as he looks at Rickon. Rickon didn't back down though "Aye, when I read the letter your hand sent I didn't believe it at first but my daughter is very important to me she is the last thing I have of my late wife." MAegor nodded his head trying to seem like he cares "Yes, I'm sorry for you lost and do not worry your daughter will be safe here." Rickon nodes his head and looks over to his king.

Maegor stands up and brings his hand out so Rickon can take it "I promise your daughter will be safe and I promise to protect her and our future children." Rickon shakes his King's hand "Who wants to hurt the wife of a dragon king." Maegor finishes saying and lets go of Rickon's hand "I have to go away for some business on Driftmark but I will be back a day before me and your daughter get married." Maegor leaves the room and leaves Rickon in the small council meeting room.
