Wish You The Best / Jaime Lannister / Tywin Lannister

45. It Was Me

"Cersei has claimed the throne for herself. Im sending myrcella to you and we will handle this."

"I would wish you best tywin but you already had it." Zaria purred kissing his cheek. He smiled into her.

"I'm grateful to you, Lady Olenna, for your council. I'm grateful to all of you. But you have chosen to follow me. I will not attack King's Landing. We will not attack King's Landing." Daenerys corrected.

"Then how do you mean to take the Iron Throne? By asking nicely?" Olenna chuckled.

"We will lay siege to the capital surrounding the city on all sides. Cersei will have the Iron Throne but no food for her army or the people." Daenerys told them.

"But we won't use Dothraki and Unsullied." Tyrion added walking to the carved table with the map of westeros within it.  " Cersei will try to rally the lords of Westeros by appealing to their loyalty, their love for their country. If we besiege the city with foreigners, we prove her point. Our army should be Westerosi."

" And I suppose we're providing the Westerosi?" Ellaria countered.

"You are." Tyrion agreed. He reached down and picked up a figurine that resembled a Kraken in a longship. "Lady Greyjoy will escort you home to Sunspear and her Iron Fleet will ferry the Dornish army back up to King's Landing." he walked to the south of the map and picked up a figurine that resembled a sun. He took both figurines and placed them at King's Landing. "The Dornish will lay siege to the capital alongside the Tyrell army. Two great kingdoms united against Cersei."

"So, your master plan is to use our armies? Forgive me for asking, but why did you bother to bring your own?" Olenna questioned. Tyrion reached for the figurine resembling an Unsullied helmet. He walked back around the map of Westeros.

"The unsullied will have another objective. For decades House Lannister has been the true power in Westeros. And the seat of that power is Casterly Rock. Grey Worm and the Unsullied will sail for the Rock and take it." Tyrion offered and stopped before Casterly rock. He stopped at the lion figurine.

" Do I have your support?"

"Euron greyjoy is a union thats... beneficial."

" father don't..."

" you killed the previous union literally and figuratively so you will do your duty as I see fit, and without acting like a petulant little child." Tywin commanded. Euron winked back at her. " you brought this on yourself and now we are forever going to be tied to the likes of him."

"In the meantime, it is important that we get the rest of the realms under control. Casterly rock... although I hate to do it there is no point in keeping all of our reserves there we will send them out to the reach and Harden and we will attack our enemies and their allies." Tywin demanded. " this is what King does. This is what a ruler does daughter." he warned her. " not starting feuds with people. Not turning the world against you by burning the damn sept.  I was gone less than a moon, and you nearly turned into smoke and ash."

" thanks for your concern. I'm fine."

" you are a disgrace to the Lannister name."

Zaria was content. She enjoyed being away from the castle, getting to have the mundane in life. She always wanted with a husband that didn't run from her. But instead ran to her and he held her close every night. She didn't have to worry about anything between them.

Jaime was the loving and attentive husband she had craved him to be and the supportive and available father to the kids. That was some thing that she wanted him to be available to them.  Not always running off like he used to. She never wanted this to end.
