I did not know that. How did you feel about it, did you want it?

[butwearenotmen]

He was all I had ever known, someone to care for me. It would make our claim stronger.

[homebird]

Then why marry you to another man?

[butwearenotmen]

He was promised an army by the Khal. He thought it would bring him across the Sea quicker.

[homebird]

Too often men gamble with the lives of women. What happened to him, your brother? He did not come North with the rest of your army.

[butwearenotmen]

Men often think we are objects for them to use.

He died even before my husband, the Khal did. I do not mourn my brother's death, just the brother he once was.

[homebird]

Have you happier memories from your younger years with him? You grew up in Pentos, if I remember right.

[butwearenotmen]

We were taken in secret when my brother fell to the Usurper. First to Braavos. I was 5 when Ser Willem Darry died. From there my brother would take me to whoever would host us. [Their fortune was already gone at that point.]

Before I was wed we were in Pentos though at Master Illyrio Mopatis' house. He was kind to take us in and keep my brother at bay. He was already growing violent.

[homebird]

Violent, towards you?

cw: violence against women

[butwearenotmen]

Yes. His touch was only sweet if he wanted something of me. Otherwise I was told to not awaken the dragon.

But he was no dragon.

[homebird]

You deserved better from one who claimed to be family.

This is pain that I have known. My second husband was the worst kind of man. He had the end that he deserved.

How did the wakened dragon meet with his?

[butwearenotmen]

I am sorry for that, but glad that justice was served for you.

My husband served him his gold crown. Molten, on the top of his head.

[Fitting really, but the memory of that day, of having a knife to her belly, with the child she was meant to have. It is still painful for many reasons.]
