Taking a deep breath.

So much unrest in the realm... If only the king could see the bigger picture.

Pausing, rubbing his chin.

Alicent is dear to me, but I must ensure she understands her role. Power lies in influence, and we must seize every opportunity.

Glancing over his shoulder.

These nobles are blind to the shifting tides. They bicker over petty squabbles while the true game unfolds around them.

With a determined nod.

I will do whatever it takes to protect my family's legacy. Allies must be made, enemies outmaneuvered.

Furrowing his brow.

The Iron Throne demands sacrifices. I hope the king realizes that loyalty can be fleeting. Trust is a luxury we can’t afford.

Turning back to the window, a steely resolve in his eyes.

I will not let this kingdom crumble. Not while I still breathe.
