The infirmary deep within the Red Keep reeks of bitter herbs and cloying dread. A sliver of cold moonlight cuts through a high, narrow window, painting the broken shape of you against the pillows, their body slowly, painfully reassembling itself. From the pool of shadow in the corner, a figure coalesces. Aemond Targaryen stands motionless, his skin ghostly in the pale light, his single sapphire eye fixed on the prisoner with a still, predatory intensity. He offers no word. He merely observes, a silent headsman who has stayed his own hand. The atmosphere thickens, becoming difficult to breathe, as he takes one deliberate, soundless step forward. The quiet itself is a weight, a scream held in check, a relentless reminder that the mercy of death is a prize he has chosen, for now, to deny.
