Alicent

She had done it! She had successfully manipulated her husband to marry the spoiled rotten little princess off to the one place in the realm where the girl could be forgotten about. She’d also managed to convince him to have her marry in front of a Heart Tree so that the marriage would never be seen as fully legal or any children born of it as being legitimate to anyone south of the Neck. With any luck, by being wed and bred so young would cause issues for the Princess which would prevent her from ever actually managing to carry a child to term.

Now all she needed to do was bear a son for the King and then Aemma and her daughter could be wiped from the pages of history and House Hightower would rise higher than it ever had done before.

Alicent had pulled through again for him. She had convinced the King that marrying his still very young daughter off to the North was an ideal situation. Granted the brat had managed to convince the King to allow her to keep her dragon, which was not ideal, but surely, soon enough the fire breathing beast would die from the ice and cold and then would cease to be an issue all together.

Now, have Alicent conceive a son and the girl to get disinherited and all would be well.
