GoT: Redwyne's revolution

 GoT: Redwyne's revolution


// flash-forward. Tyrion is actually thinking about what's to come.

House Redwyne. Tyrion could understand why they would resent the new queen. Daenerys wasn't popular everywhere. That much could be understood. For Westeros, she was the silver-haired bitch that came from the south. She was a menace, the scourge that would drastically destroy the very fabric of their society. She had tamed beasts that could devour her very enemies, dragons she considered her own children. She had killed the old masters of the south and could very much try to kill the noble families that had existed for centuries. The Redwynes would not try to confront the queen, lest they wanted to die by the fire of her dragons. They would, however, try to reach out to her and kill the closest person she had. Her own blood, the young princess. Learning that princess Bäahal was traveling the world in order to play the ambassador was welcomed with exctiment. They used it against her. They used Bäahal's kindness against her and ambushed the princess. Tyrion knew that it was just a matter of time before they went after the queen. For the moment, the survival of the princess had been kept a secret and Jaime had just returned from his mission with Commander Jon.


They would have to discuss their findings and the fact House Redwyne was to be considered an enemy. The priority was to avoid an all-out war, but they also had to make a lesson out of the Redwynes. He rubbed his temple and drank his cup of wine. The queen was trying to deal with the relationship between his brother and her sister. That had to be settled somehow, because they had to know if their union was allowed or if they were forbidden to be together. Jaime had done his best not to give into his desire and urges. He had done things right. He had found someone who cared for him and who genuinely loved him, flaws and all. Tyrion didn't know what Bäahal saw in Jaime. He loved his brother and he wanted him to survive his queen's judgement. Jaime deserved better. He deserved much better and Tyrion wanted nothing but his brother's happiness. He was aware that Bäahal held Jaime's heart in her hands. He was aware that Jaime made the princess happy, perhaps the happiest she had ever been. They really were a beautiful couple and Tyrion wished nothing more but for the two of them to get what they wanted. 


Yet... There was something looming in the distance. Jaime was hated, perhaps he even was the most hated man of Westeros. He had a target on his back and no one but the princess and his siblings, no one could ever want his well-being. So he was afraid, for both of Jaime and the princess. He was afraid of what was to come but he knew they would prepare for anything.
