    ALYLLA wiped her tears away, and she was met with her mother in the castle dark halls, "Alylla."

    Alylla stopped in her tracks, not meeting her mothers eye.

    "Don't be late for the dinner," Alicent crossed her arms, "The whole family will be there."

    Alylla nodded, before Alicent sighed looking at Ser Criston, whom looked down.

Alylla watched as her mother nodded to herself and continued walking leaving Alylla standing the halls. Alone.

ALYLLA had been dressed, by her handmaidens. Hair has been curled and styled.

"Black had always been your colour."

Alylla turned her head to see her sister, holding a blanket, "Sister," Alylla smiled at Helaena whom walked in the chamber, "What is that?"

"I made you something," She placed the blanket down, and Alylla saw that Helaena had knitted her a blanket, "Helaena it's beautiful."

Helaena smiled, looking at the blanket.

"Mother doesn't want us being late to the dinner, she said it would be improper of us."

Alylla nodded, standing up, linking arms with her sister and smiling, while saying, "Then shall not be late."

Helaena grinned.

    ALYLLA and Helaena made an entrance, few heads were turned, looking at Alylla and Helaena. Alicent was relieved to see Alylla on time.

    When the king entered being carried in by four guards, everyone took a seat, Alylla had her seat next to Jacaerys, Helaena was seated by Aegon, Aemond on the end and on the other end of the table Lucerys and Rhaena, Baela being seated on the other side of Jacaerys. Rhaenyra and Daemon together on one side of Viserys and Alicent and Otto on the other.

    "How good it is...to see you all tonight... together," Viserys breathed, Alicent leaned into Viserys, "Prayer before we begin?"

    Alylla could see the confusion on Daemon and Rhaenyra's face, "Yes."

    Alylla closed her eyes, putting her two hand's together, "May the Mother smile down on this gathering with love. May the Smith mend the bonds that have been broken for far too long. And to Vaemond Velaryon, may the gods give him rest."
