》Cersei POVQyburn made his way to the walls of the Red Keep, where I was overlooking the Blackwater. Euron had arrived with the Golden Company on his Iron Fleet. I could see all of his ships sailing closer and closer to the city, to me. Qyburn approached.
Qyburn- Your grace, I'm afraid I bring you terrible news. The dead have...broken through The Wall.
It was adorable; he actually cared about all of this. To his surprise and horror, I simply replied...
Cersei- Good.
I left my outlook on the bay, making my way back to the Red Keep as Qyburn turned around to see the bay, littered upon hundreds of Ironborn ships.

》Yara POV
Euron made his way down the decks, where I've been tied up to a post. Surprisingly he never tortured me; he never had the intention to do so. He grabbed his cask and sat next to me.
Yara- Why don't you get over with it and kill me?
Euron- It wouldn't be right. We're family; the last of the Greyjoys; the last ones with balls at least.
He laughed out, his breath reeking of ale. He began drinking, and with a moment of realization...
Euron- If I kill you...who can I talk to? I got a crew full of mutes.
Yara- You picked the losing side you know.
He came closer to my face.
Euron- Then I'll sail the Iron Fleet back to the Iron Islands. I have no intention of staying here, especially with the dead now past The Wall.
Yara- The dead march south?
He took another sip of his ale.
Euron- Aye! And when they come...you won't find me here.
Yara- Here? We're in King's Landing, aren't we?
Euron- Aye.
Yara- Huh, never knew you grew to be such a coward.
He had no reaction, no expression.
Euron- Say what you will; the dead scare you too.
Yara- Aye I can agree to that, but at least I'll be fighting them.
Euron- How do you plan on fighting tied up to a post?
I didn't reply. He smirked, took another sip of his drink and got up.
Euron- Keep talking; while you'll be here trying to escape, I'll be in the Red Keep...
He came closer to me to finish his sentence.
Euron- Fucking the queen.
A nasty smile grew on his face as he began climbing to the deck. I will get out tonight I kept thinking to myself. I just didn't know how...

》Cersei POV
That night, Euron entered the throne room with the captain of the Golden Company, Harry Strickland. He was rather charming and quiet, unlike Euron.
Cersei- 20,000 men is it?
Harry- Yes your grace. Along with 4,000 horses and 800 war elephants.
I was delighted. The Golden Company exceeded my expectations. It was good to know that we looked like the winning side. I had recently gotten word that one of Daenerys's dragons had been killed. Sitting upon the Iron Throne, I contemplated; once the battle up north is dealt with, the usurper's army will be depleted enough that finishing up the survivors would be easy.
