"They are all a bunch of fools." Tyler chuckled as he readied to set out with skylar. "Im a Tully. Did they forget? The riverlands are my domain. Im not lord of it but they wont bow to daemon or aegon."
"Then move your ass Tully.' Davina agreed as she passed.
"I will miss you, be careful the both of you." Avalon begged hugging Skylar before kissing Tyler. His gaze lingered on her. "I love you. I love you, Skylar, come back in one piece please."
"Ready dad?" Skylar questioned. Avalon always loved that the kids took so easily to tyler being their father.
"Sheepstealer going to let me on him with you?" Ty countered as they headed out.
"That fool, Aegon, is unlike to survive. The realm will suffer if Aemond One-Eye rules." Daemon told Morgana. "You should pray you never meet him. He will cut you down soon as wish you good-day."
"I'd heard the same thing about you. But I'll cross you no further. I'm sure your tactics are, after all, approved by the queen." Morgana called after him. Daemon glared turning slowly back to her.
"She cannot succeed, Morgana. Even if I willed it to be so. The people who support her will not be led by her. They look to a man for strength. Who's better suited to it? The Hightowers with their scheming? Or Viserys's first true heir?" daemon questioned getting in her face. "When I take King's Landing... Rhaenyra is welcome to join me there and take her place by my side. King and queen... ruling together."
" And if you lose?" Morgana pondered, she saw no fear in his eyes.
"Then I'll be dead, and none of this will be my problem." Daemon assured.
"Touche." she agreed heading off.
" A message, Your Grace. Uh... uh, fresh news from Stone Hedge. The Blackwoods have overwhelmed the Brackens, and, uh, Lord Amos has pledged his banner to you. House Bracken is yours."
"Call Ser Willem here so that I might congratulate him." Daemon declared fondly. "The Blackwoods will be feted in these halls."
Morgana hesitated at that, that wouldnt do.
"Everything north of Moat Cailin is in our control." davina remarked. "I have a meeting with Dalton Greyjoy-"
"I need to go to that meeting." Avalon corrected.
"He's... called the red kracken." Draegon countered.
"And if I'm to be queen I need to get my hands dirty. I need to be at that meeting." Avalon agreed.
"Alright pretty lady, lets go."
Tyler was dealing with the riverlands, the riverrun and them making his way to the westerlands while Robbie was at highgarden and them he was moving tup to the reach and searoad. Tommens army was moving up dorne and taking aim at old town and ashford. The problem with the regions that they currently held was that it was a lot of snow and a lot of sand. They needed control of the stormlands, which the hightowers held which was comprised of a good chunk of the east. Kings landing was a no go. Dragonstone and driftmark were small but held the ports to the outside world which were needed. The eyrie, the lannister territories and the twins would be next on their stop to total control. surround them. Leave them no where to go except team Avalon.
Aemond stood staring at the throne when Helaena found him.
"Was it worth the price?" she questioned. Aemond didn't answer just stared back at her. Yes it was. What wasnt worth it was the fact that he didnt kill Aegon. Now he was only king for a trial basis. until Aegon came back to life.
"Maeve." Aemond whispered.
"Your grace." She answered.
"Maeve," Aemond countered reaching out for her.
"I'm tired aemond, congratulations." Maeve countered heading off.
"I'm.." Arthur sighed. "Well this is harder than I thought. "
'What is?" helaena questioned.
"I'm heading out tonight with my uncle. To try and meet them at the riverlands, stop daemon from getting any farther." Arthur informed her.
"Oh." Helaena agreed. "It's haunted over there." Helaena reminded him.
"I'm not going all the way to harrenhal." Arthur countered. "I dont think so at least."
"You will come back to me- I mean to the capital?"
"Only death could keep me away." Arthur confirmed. 'Might I have a kiss before I leave?"
"You can have all the kisses." Helaena agreed.
Aegon lay with a labored breath, Alicent at his side, she had never been gentle with him, never been too kind and now she was going to lose him.
"Mummy." Aegon whispered as Alicent headed off.
"I had a dream about you." Daemon remarked finding Morgana in the kitchens. Morgana smiled sweetly back at him.
"A naughty dream?"
"The very best kind. 'Daemon agreed. " You want to bring it to life?" Morgana had never met a man like Daemon, she had heard such awful things and most of them were true but seeing him here, this place haunting him and yet...he still found the time to cheat on his wife and flirt with her.
"We dont have any dragons to claim jace. Davina claimed them all." Rhaenyra reminded him.
"Maybe its time we had a talk with aunt avalon?" Jace pondered. "Show her the light."
"I pushed her too far," rhaenyra countered
"You did. I didnt." Jace corrected. "Let me go, let me talk to her, we can work together." jace begged.
"Avalon wont hurt you. Davina is unpredictable." Rhaenyra agreed. "Be careful."
