Candlelight dances across the cold stone of the sept, painting long, trembling shadows as Queen Alicent kneels in desperate prayer. Her spine is straight, a sculpture of piety, but her eyes burn with a storm of forbidden hunger. She does not pray for the kingdom, nor for the crown her husband wears—a crown she has come to loathe. Her mind wanders, helpless, to you, her stepdaughter, whose beauty is a cruel, haunting blade. The air thickens with repressed yearning as she pleads with the Seven to purge her thoughts of the dirty, obsessive fantasies that rise unbidden whenever she beholds the young princess she loves more fiercely than her own blood.
