As young Selyse lay elegantly on her bed, looking out of her window at the stunning landscape of Brightwater Keep, she thought about Stannis Baratheon... again. Over and over again she had heard of his handsomeness from her cousin Melessa, who was also in love with him. She had longed to meet him, but had never truly believed it was ever going to happen. She was her fathers only daughter, and often dreamed for a sister instead of her two brothers, Axell and Imry, who constantly picked on her for not having many friends and said she would never have any children of her own, which was what she had always wanted.
All of a sudden, her brothers burst into her room and threw a pale of ice cold water over her and her dress. She jumped up and screamed "Get out!". Afterwards, when she had dried herself off, Selyse decided to go for a ride on her horse to clear her head. On her way to the stables, she ran into Melessa.
"Selyse, I've got something to tell you", she said with a saddened look, which immediately alerted Selyse.
"Two weeks from today I will be leaving to go to Horn Hill to marry Randyll Tarly", she managed to splutter while trembling. Selyse knew why she was upset to be going; the main reason being she didn't want to marry Randyll as she was still in love with Stannis, but also because Selyse was like a best friend to her. Selyse was also distraught about Melessa leaving because she was her only friend and without her, she knew she would feel forever lonely. Now she didn't want to go for a ride on her horse, all she wanted to do was sob into her pillow.
