King's Landing, 121

There has never been a queen as much loved as Queen Alyria Hightower. Alicent Hightower was known and not forgotten as her sister once said but she was not remembered for being good or kind. She was known as the Green Whore. Her father was known as a traitor and an ambitious man. She knew he would hate that. Many said Alyria Hightower and her little family were the only good things that ever came from House Hightower.

King's Landing seemed gloomy as the royal family returned to the city. The council meeting had come together as soon as the boat touched the port. The king, his wife, brother, and the rest sat and began to speak about the matter. The men looked at the queen. "I love my family, in the end, they are my blood" she began before taking a deep breath. "But, I am a woman of my word. I do not like to make promises and break them. I have honor and there has always been honor in my words" the men in the room nodded.

"The events on Driftmark made me realize that no matter what the king has decreed, others believe that a male heir is much better than a female one" the room was once again quiet. "My father was one of those people. He believed that Aemond should be the next king of the Seven Kingdoms, even after I voiced my disagreement and opinion. The king named Rhaenyra his heir. But, my father decided that was not the best for the realm, that the best was a Hightower. Either my sons or Alicent's. And for years I let it go, believing that one day his ridiculous plans would cease or that he would change his mind. He did not" she took a deep breath before looking at Viserys.

"Husband, in our years of marriage I have never asked you for anything" she began and he nodded. "And I know that what I am about to ask is something that needs consideration and thought but I know is for the best" he nodded once again. "I believe that my father is a traitor alongside my sister and her sons. And I believe they should be executed for treason, not alone against the crown but Rhaenyra and my children" a few gasps were heard around the table. "Rhaenyra is my daughter, the heir to the throne, threatening her and her family is treason" the lords nodded. "Alicent's son threatened my own. I don't want to believe what they would do if they had a real chance at hurting my family" the men in the room could not deny that Otto Hightower was capable of doing such despicable things to get his way to the crown.

"I agree with the queen" Daemon spoke up first. "I will let you talk amongst yourselves and decide" the queen made her way to her chambers. "Do not let anyone in. I'm not feeling well, Ser Erryk" the guard nodded as she made her way into her room. The queen sat in her chambers, and for the first time in years, Alyria cried her heart out. She grieved for the family she had lost years ago when she chose Rhaenyra's side. The queen didn't join her family for supper, she remained in her bed, crying until she had no tears left.
