"We do, Your Grace. All men know that." Webber sounded uneasy. "But I heard Your Grace give the order for the Lord Commander to come here."

"And he has clearly disobeyed that order. A Kingsguard who does no do what his monarch says, is no Kingsguard, he brings dishonour on your order, by breaking his vow. " she confirmed, wanting them to get there on their own.

"Meaning no disrespect, Your Grace, perhaps this is not the best time to give your fools lessons on the law." He pointed toward the door, now addressing the knights. "Get the fuck out there and kill anyone that looks to be helping Brandon."

Rhaena had half a mind to have them turn on Baelon, undermining her right in front of others, that could be dealt with later.
The Queen grabbed her sword and sheathed it, and left the room, ordering as many guards as she found on the way to accompany them.

The knights of the Kingsguard followed Rhaena. Webber was silent, but Moore could be heard speculating on their chances of killing the Lord Commander. He didn't seem confident.

Baelon followed, ready to sprint for Seaskimmer as soon as he cleared the door.

Arriving from some oblivious cloud stupor, Arenya stumbled onto the blood splatters and puddles of the room.
No one was there, whatever transpired she had missed it, but she did see the severed head of her nephew resting on the far desk. Taking in a deep breath, she couldnt find words, she did hear a scream and after a moment she realized it was her own. Arenya fell to her knees staring into the cold, violet eyes of her favorite, her King., who was now dead far too soon. She then noticed his axe with his body. Standing she placed her hand on his brow, rubbing it against a tuft of his hair then she stopped and picked up the axe.
As she stared at the weapon and the engraved symbols and markings she wanted to know who was responsible? She had an idea, but she needed it to be clear.

A group of men came in, three of them servants, the other a guard with blood spatters on his livery. They stepped when they saw the princess.
"M'lady," he said. "I brought servants to clean up the mess."

She stared at the men, then she focused on the bloodstained guard. Within an instant, she grabbed the bloodspattered guard by the top of his armor with one hand, tightly gripping her nephew's axe in the other, "What the fuck happened in this room?! Why is my king dead?!"
Her eyes deep in color as she waited for an answer. "I was summoned to a meeting here, what happened?!"

"She killed him. The king. I heard him crying for help, but I...I couldn't...stop her." The guard looked very distressed. He bowed his head. "Please, m'lady, we have to clean up the mess."
The servants were talking amongst themselves. One, however, gave a shriek and fled, before his companions could stop him. Arenya realised that the news would soon spread through the castle, if it wasn't already doing so.

"What do you mean you couldn't stop her?! He was your King!!! You give your life for your King!!" Arenya shoved him aside as the frightened servant took off running from the room. She turned back to the guard,"You said She? She who?.."
Arenya looked around taking in the scene. Finally noticing the arrow was protruding from Aegon's body. She knelt down, shaking her head slowly,"The Queen? She did this?" Arenya knew that Rhaena was not good with swords but that arrow was definitely hers. "She couldn't have done this alone, who else was in here?"

"The knights of the Kingsguard were here. Ser Olyvar tried to save the King, but he couldn't stop her," the guard explained. "I don't know how she did it. And then...she sent us to fetch the rest of the royal family who were here. It was like the gods themselves gave her strength, m'lady. We're...we're all cursed." King Aegon...he would have been a good king, truly.

"We just have a problem that can only be dealt with in the Targaryen way." She glanced at Aegon's head and body again and nodded with a heavy heart, "Yes, yes he would have. All my hope laid on that boy, now…" She shook her head. "Now tell me, where did they go, everyone that left this room?"

"I don't know. I went to bring the servants," he said. "I couldn't leave him here, m'lady. It weren't right."

Arenya touched his shoulder, "Apologies for my actions earlier. I loved my nephew…", Sighing deeply, "The gods didn't allow him enough time in this world to do what was needed."
"See to him, have him prepared. He worshipped the Seven, but he will be put to fire as a Valyrian."..
Placing Penance upon her shoulder, "I'll go find my kin." Arenya departed.
