On the roof of the tower having the king's chamber, Kai stood, watching the black sky turning blue.
Dawn was close. Yet Kai's prospects seemed dark from the sullen expression on his face. His eyes kept coming in and out of focus. Two notifications hovered in front of him, both trying to outdo each other.
The first was the milestone that had come up after leaving Cersei.

Seeing the nine names, the corners of Kai's mouth twitched.
It didn't take him much to guess that, most probably, all these Queens were married in their Timelines. He didn't even recognize any name, other than Cersei, of course.
Moreover, it was the first time Kai was seeing a Title with an innate Skill.
Suddenly, a frown appeared on his face, remembering the queen.
Cersei hadn't permitted him a second more in her bed, after replying to his questions, and that wouldn't have troubled Kai if he had at least got a favorable answer. But he didn't.
There were three reasons for Kai to approach Cersei after kidnapping Jon Arryn. Foremost, it was to devour her tale. Then, it was to see her, one of the most beautiful women in Westeros, or so the scrolls had described her. Kai now found that statement lacking in adequacy. Last, he wanted to use her authority to get close to a powerful knight, like the black-armored guard with Prince Joffrey.
The Hound. Kai recalled the name. Though he isn't a knight. Weird.
"So you have fantasies like other boys too," Cersei had commented upon hearing his request. "You have chosen the wrong time, then. Lord Rykker of Duskendale, that lickspittle fool, has again organized a senseless tourney.
