Game of Thrones - Myrcella Baratheon Story

Chapter 2: As High as Honour

"Ser Edmund Waxley you shall arise anew as Lord Edmund of House Waxley, Lord of Wickenden," to which, he obeyed and stood up, bowed and went back to his seat. "Now to our next issue, it has seemed that some people have caused quite the trouble in the Vale that they thought would go unnoticed and abused, tormented and unjustly killed the people of this nation among other crimes," he angrily looked at Lord Lyonel Corbray, Lord Gilwood Hunter and Lord Benedar Belmore. Edward Arryn angrily boomed, 

"Lord Corbray, Lord Hunter, Lord Belmore WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THE REPORTS OF A REBELLION I'M HEARING ABOUT, TRYING TO CAUSE CHAOS IN OUR NATION AND TORMENTING THE PEOPLE," he slammed his hand on the throne which had a rippling effect through the High Hall as he ferociously gazed at the trio; the reports were scattered throughout the hall. The rebellious lords ran and bowed at base of the Arryn Throne to the Lord of the Eyrie as Lyonel Corbray spoke,

"My lord, please forgive us for our belligerent actions, we swear not to commit such criminal actions but where is the proof of our crime." Lord Edward Arryn continued his ferocious gaze towards the traitors as he threw more copies of the report before them. They shockingly analysed the detailed reports and bellowed for their lives to be spared. The Lord of the Eyrie retorts, 

"You ask for MERCY after you have committed HIGH TREASON, there shall be no pardons for traitors of the nation," he signalled the Honor Guard to bring in the executioner and continued, "Each of you traitorous lords will be given punishment befitted for high treasonous crimes." Everyone was shocked about the turn of events and whispered in the background but what punishment was about to befall them as the traitors incessantly asked for mercy and pardons.  

"SILENCE," Edward boomed. All noise swiftly vanished and the traitors moved back slightly from shock. 

"If you think my rule is weak. think again and let this be a reminder to all," Lord Arryn demanded and calmly continued, "I, Edward of House Arryn, Lord Paramount of the Vale shall dispense justice on the nobles: Lyonel Corbray, Gilwood Hunter and Benedar Belmore for committing high treason against their liege lord." After a long pause and with a coarse tone, he began the judgement, " Lord Lyonel of House Corbary, Lord of Heart's Home step forward and receive your punishment," to which, he inched forward slightly then, Lord Edward continued, 

"Lyonel Corbray, as the instigator of a rebellion against your liege lord; your punishment consists of being stripped of your titles of Lord of Heart's Home and head of the family, being publicly executed for committing high treason...," before Edward finished talking Lyonel lunged towards his superior with the intent to kill but at the moment Edward and the other nobles sprung into action while the Honor Guards brutally restrained Lyonel Corbray. After the big scare; everyone started to settle while still being on high alert, the Lord of the Eyrie resumed talking with a merciless and death-like stare towards his murderer,

" Your foolish actions won't save you this time Lyonel; I'll make sure your family goes down with your impetuous actions; in addition to the aforementioned, Ser Lyn of House Corbray shall also pay for the mutiny you started and tried killing me your liege lord, your crime is far worse than just starting a rebellion," Edward gave a death stare at the traitor. Ser Lyn was brought in by the Honor Guards. Next, the duo was taken outside of the Eyrie followed by the nobles present, members of House Arryn and Lord Edward Arryn, Lord Paramount of the Vale who signalled the executioner for the punishment to be carried out.  

While Ser Lyn continually cried and hit his brother and within minutes Lord Lyonel and Ser Lyn were no more than a few corpses. Everyone present except Edward gulped and took deep breaths; as the bodies were taken away by few men of the Honor Guards, everyone walked back into the High Hall and resumed the court session. Edward began,
