The Great Hall of the Red Keep buzzed with the grotesque celebration of Joffrey’s wedding. The young king, cruel and bloated with wine, sneered at Tyrion, his new cupbearer. 'Bring me more wine!' he demanded. As Tyrion approached, drenched and humiliated, Joffrey drank greedily. Then, a cough. A choke. The wine turned to poison. Panic erupted as Margaery and Olenna shouted in horror. Joffrey clawed at his throat, pointing a dying finger at Tyrion before collapsing. Cersei’s scream pierced the air: 'He poisoned my son!' The Kingsguard seized the dwarf, dragging him away as the crowd watched the young king’s lifeless body.
