"Still, perhaps I am being over hasty," she said, looking at the knight, "if you could point me in the direction of Princess Deanya."

"I couldn't follow the princess because I had to be sure the boy didn't die of blood loss," Ser Duncan explained. "But she went in that direction." He indicated the direction in which he had seen Daenya head. "Thank you for hearing me out, Your Grace."

Daenya herself returned to her tent, bloody sword still in hand.

The boy Agrivane looked up at her. He saw the blood on her sword. "What happened? Did you get the pin back, Your Grace? Did you kill the brat? I never meant him to die, truly!" He looked a little guilty.

"If you want the pin, get it yourself. It's among his possessions," Daenya replied, throwing her sword into a corner before stepping over to a mirror. She frowned at the sight of crimson all down her dress.
"The bastard bled on me."

"Is he dead?" Agrivane asked. "Am I allowed to go back to Ser Duncan now?"

"I chopped his hand off," Daenya said, glaring over at Agrivane. "And if you keep asking me stupid questions you'll lose your tongue!"

The boy yelped and lowered his gaze. He was too afraid to say anything else.

"Daenya," Rhaena said, having heard the last comment, "what I have I told you about making threats? You should just go straight into action if you're going to, don't pussyfoot around with words," she commented, taking at her sisters time wasting.
"I have been told you chopped a mans hand of, I have make a show of looking into it."

Daenya turned to the entrance of her tent and glared at Rhaena. "You didn't know," She said, the sarcasm heavy in her voice.
"And now, I didn't chop a man's hand off," She added, pulling off her dress, wearing only smallclothes beneath. "I chopped a boy's hand off; for stealing."

"Same difference," she said, about the man-boy difference, law was the law, "A knight has come giving me trouble about you doing it, and I told him thieves lost a hand, so you were right," Rhaena responded, too tired for shit like this, "Chopping thieves hands off is one thing, cutting someones tongue out for asking questions is another, no matter how stupid the questions he asks."

"Like I give a shit," Daenya replied, rummaging around before she found a crimson dress, pulling it on quickly.
"You, squire, you can piss off back to your knight," She said after a moment. "Get out of my sight."

Rhaena rounded on her then and glared down at her properly angry now at her sisters tone, "You'll give a shit because I tell you to, because it will be me clearing up your mess and explaining it to father. Because these knights and these men have come from their homes to serve us and defend our family and you will do better for them than cutting off their hands and cutting out their tongues. Understand? Or I might just have to start giving them reparations in kind."

"She's gone!" Daenya replied, turning away from her sister. "Not that she would have listened..."
She didn't want to remember, what she had just done; yet it flooded in nonetheless, leaving her reeling, eyes brimming with salty tears.

"That doesn't matter, Daenya. Do you think people other than us will separate you? What she does you also do, what she reaps you also sow," She said, not losing her tone, "I think you should look on what you've both done."

"You think I don't!?" She spun around, more sad than angry, her cheeks wet now.
"Do you think I don't live every moment of the day with the memories of what I have done? I wake up crying at night because the boy... the boy comes back to me! Him and his sister! They look up at me, crying blood, and ask me why!"
She shuddered, but didn't quite collapse; at least not physically. "Don't ever... suggest that I don't look on what she has done..."

"There is no she, Daenya. There is just you!" Rhaena said, exasperated now, "Have you ever thought that this you may be the stranger in the body?" she asked, knowing she was being harsh, but she was angry too.
"I don't want to fight with you," she said after a pause, voice a lot softer now, and she held out her hand to Daenya to take if she liked, "would it help to tell me about the boy? the sister? It's just the two of us now."

"No, not... not now," Daenya replied, turning away again. "I don't want to think of them right now... maybe after the fighting is done."
She breathed deeply and went to sit on her bed, seeing her sword lying there. "The sorceress... I asked her to try and find something that would help."

"I hope she can, but do not be too downheartened if not." she said, hesitaing before sitting down next to her sister, "Sometimes our shadows can't be moved," she looked off in the distance, thinking of her own problems too and how she can deal with them before she hurts someone properly.

"Well one of us has to make way," Daenya replied after a long silence. "Not that it will happen. We both know how it will end. The... she will do something and I will be killed."

"I hope that does not happen," she said, frowning then she smiled a bit and nudged Daenya, "Then aegon will have no option but to marry me, and we should not wish that fate on him."

"As if I was even an option," Daenya replied, unable to smile. "At worst our brother is scared of me and at best I have his pity."
She shook her head and brushed some hair from her face. "You would be our parents choice."

"I doubt any of that, You would definitely be my first choice," she said, putting a hand on Daenya's shoulder, and squeezing gently, "I know it's hard, but do try to not let this get you down."
