SUNCHOKE / ARYA STARK out now!
"Tell me why I'm not allowed to see Tyrion?" Tyanna demanded.
"Now is not the time, Tyanna." Tywin corrected as Tommen approached.
"Joffrey is dead, I loved the little shithead but he made a lot of enemies. But my Tyrion didnt kill him!" Tyanna shouted.
"Maybe you dont know your brother as well as you think you do." Tywin countered.
"Then you raised a killer, is that what you are saying? You were a shit parent to raise a man that would kill his nephew at his wedding?" Tyanna sassed. "But then again, thats how you did it with the Starks right?"
"Tyanna thats enough." Tywin demanded.
"I'm seeing my brother, he didnt do this. Jaime knows it. Cersei knows it too. You know it but you are happy to be rid of him."
"Tyanna-"
"Hi auntie," Tommen whispered.
"Your uncle didnt kill Joffrey." tyanna demanded.
"I believe you but mother doesnt." Tommen whispered leaning into her. Her anger faded as she wrapped her arms around Tommen.
'Your brother is dead. Do you know what that means?' tywin questioned Tommen as they looked upon Joffreys corpse. 'I am not trying to trick you.''
"Just trick the world into thinking Tyrion is capable of-"
"Tyanna." Tywin pleaded.
''It means I'll become king.'' Tommen answered.
''Yes you will become king. What kind of King do you think you'll be?'
'A good king?' tommen suggested.
"The best, better than Joffrey and definitely better than Robert." Tyanna assured kissing his cheek.
''I think so as well.' Tywin agreed 'you've got the right temperament for it. But what makes a good king? What's a good king single most important quality?'
'This is hardly the place or the time.' Cersei muttered. Tyanna looked to her as she pressed a kiss to Joffrey's head.
"Tyrion's place isnt a cell. How about we talk about that?" Tyanna hissed. Cersei rolled her eyes, Tyanna scoffed in return. Tywin cleared his throat while Tommen looked between them cautiously.
''Holiness?'' TOmmen croaked out.
''Baylor the blessed with holy and pious he built the sept he also named a six year old boy high Septon because he thought the boy could work miracles he ended up fasting himself into an early grave because food was of this world in this world with sinful.' Tywin told him
'Justice.' Tommen said
'A good king must be just ORYS the first was just everyone applauded his reforms nobles and commoners like but he wasn't just for long he was murdered in his sleep after less than a year by his own brother. Was that truly just of him? To abandon his subjects to an evil that he was too gullible to recognize?' tywin questioned.
'No'
'No' Tywin agreed.
"Cersei, why am I not allowed- I dont even know how to comprehend that word. Not, no, me? Not allowed entry to see Tyrion." Tyanna whined pulling Cersei aside.
"What about strength?'
''Yes strength King Robert was strong he won the rebellion and crush the Targaryen dynasty... And he attended three small council meetings in 17 years. He spent his time whoring and hunting and drinking until the last two killed him. So we have a man who starves himself to death a man who lets his own brother murder him and a man who thinks that winning and ruling are the same thing. What do they all lack?' tywin questioned.
"He killed my son." Cersei reminded her.
"He didnt." Tyanna bit back. "Tyrion isnt that stupid."
"You calling the murder of my son, the king stupid?" Cersei countered.
"Yes!" Tyanna agreed. "It's foolish to kill the king, he choked, he took a bite of his murdered dove cake and choked on a doves bone." Tyanna decided confidently.
"You will follow Tyrion to the grave wouldnt you?"
''Wisdom'' Tommen offered as the women had a stare off.
''Yes.'' Tywin agreed, glancing back at his daughters, he didnt know who looked more murderous.
''Wisdom this was makes a good king.'
'Yes. But what is wisdom? A house with great wealth and lands asks you for your protection against another house with a strong navy that could one day oppose you. How do you know which choice is wise and which isn't? You've any experience of treasuries or granaries or shipyards and soldiers?''
"If thats how you want it," Tyanna remarked stepping closer to Cersei. "Then so be it." She agreed. "But I warn you Cersei, its not good to make an enemy of me."
'No' Tommen admitted.
'No of course not.' Tywin told him 'a King knows what he knows and what he doesn't. You are young. a wise young king listens to his counselors and heads advice until he comes of age. And the wisest kings continue to listen to them long afterwards your brother was not a wise king. Your brother was not a good king. If he had been perhaps he'd still be alive now...' cersei glared over at her father, 'as the king you will have to marry. Do you understand why?''
'A king needs a queen' Tommen answered as tywin led him away. Tyanna marched past them.
"I came to pay my-" Oberyn began.
"No you didnt." Tyanna corrected grabbing his arm and spinning him around. "Come on, I am seeing Tyrion."
"Ser Gregor." Cersei remarked. "Go block the cells." He nodded heading off. "And dont let my sister near Tyrion." She added.
''How are you?' Jamie questioned as they were leaving the sept
'I'm all right.' Tommen answered
'You are, you will be, I'll see to that,' Jamie encouraged. "Tyanna-"
"Talk to your sister." Tyanna hissed as she marched onward. "Before I commit treason."
