Thread: Of Wolves and Lions (Iikaitlynii & Cold)

Time seemed to pass at an unbelievably slow rate as the king looked upon each female that was the daughter of Walder Frey. First he spoke with Sylvia and looked over Morenna. It was hard to say what he was thinking as his face seemed to be rather stoic in expression as he looked over each of the women. Even without looking Rowenna could feel as he stepped before her and immediately she felt herself straighten up a tiny bit more. Not that it was needed since her posture was fine even without doing that. With him standing right there before her it was easier to see the Stark grey eyes and the auburn Tully hair. Her throat felt a little tight as he spoke and asked for her name. Rowenna Frey, Your Grace, she spoke softly. Making herself give a tiny smile in response she felt more like someone that was under a microscope with someone judging every little thing about her. The others might have enjoyed that, probably because a couple of them had been married before and had gone through the duties of being a wife whereas she hadn't and was nervous about having to do that. The thought was he'd probably move on to check out everyone else and Rowenna wouldn't really be insulted by that. Actually she might feel a little relieved about that since it meant no more worrying being judged for every little thing and almost thought it would be easier just to be forced to marry someone rather than stand there to maybe be picked. Slowly the proceedings went on as each lord came to pay their fealty. This was not one of the 'exciting' things that a ruler had to do but Cersei didn't mind nearly so much. Having power was something she had always wanted throughout her life. Men always had the strength while she had to learn to be proper little lady. Being Queen changed that since she had the power despite the fact of being a woman. Almost all of the lords had come through and it was almost time for the small folk. Her patience was already running a little thin, however, so she would take a few before having things cease and continuing tomorrow. Before to long it would be dinner time anyway and soon would be a good time to stop. Next came Ser Adam of House Marbrand who kneeled before her and spoke along the same lines of everyone else. What he said next was a bit lower in sound and it was doubtful that anyone else had heard him aside from herself. Jaime had been gone for so long she had to turn her attention for men elsewhere. Their cousin Lancel had been useful for a time but he was just to much of an easy pushover, and didn't even have the strength anywhere close to her brother. Ser Adam reminded her of her brother a little bit. Even though he had darker hair compared to the Lannisters bright blonde he was a tall fellow like him with a broad chest and arms. Thoughts were already turning in her head, watching as he glanced up at her for a few moments while he said that. Perhaps he could be of use to her personally. Thank you Ser Adam. Your family has been loyal to the throne and our Kings as I'm sure you'll continue to be, she spoke keeping up with pretenses while thinking about possibly seeing him later. Yeah I think that'll help 3
