"Your grandsire is rather persistent. He is set on your father having a son," Myranda said, frowning. "I don't believe your father wished to marry at all, after your mother died, else why would he have held out so long? But your grandsire can be quite forceful, so it seems that your father gave in eventually. Perhaps Lord Arthur threatened to disinherit you both if your father refused to marry Lady Wylla."
She thought for a moment.
"I really could not say what the answer is, Alysanne. It is entirely possible your grandsire will force yet another wife on your father, if Wylla were to be disposed of. He might not, of course, but I shouldn't put it past him."

"Let us deal with one problem first," Alysanne suggested. "We can always take my grandsire into consideration once Lady Wylla has been dealt with. I may make some inquiries in the capital when I am there."
She looked up at Lady Myranda and smiled. "Why is it exactly that you dislike my step mother so?"

Myranda shrugged lightly. "We wore dresses in the exact same shade, and a similar cut, to a party. The horror! Worse, she got all the compliments because she was a new bride, and I precious few. I could not bear to see everyone fawn over her, some silly chit from White Harbor. She worships the right gods, I'll say that for her, but she's not one of us."

Alysanne gave a small laugh. "She is quite the nuisance, I find, though Daenerys is a sweet little child."
She finished her wine and set the cup down. "May I trouble you for some rooms for the night? Taena and I shall fly to the city tomorrow."

"Of course you may stay. I know how to treat my guests," Myranda said with an easy smile. "Please be careful in the city. It sounds awfully dangerous."

"Taena and I will be fine, Lady Myranda, but you have my thanks," Alysanne replied. "I shall see you on the morrow, before we go." She added, rising from her seat.

"Sleep well," Myranda said, and bid Alysanne farewell.

The next day Alysanne and Taena flew off to King's Landing.
