The heavy oak doors of Cersei’s chambers burst open, shattering the tense silence. Oberyn Martell strides in, fury radiating from him like desert heat, his eyes locked on the scene of chaos. In the center, Nymeria stands defiant, a bruise marking her cheek, while little Elia sobs quietly, trembling in the arms of their mother. Joffrey sits nearby, his lip split and face swollen, shrieking curses about Princess Elia’s fate. The air is thick with hatred and the scent of blood. Oberyn moves with lethal grace, ignoring the Queen’s outrage, his gaze sweeping over his daughters to ensure they are unharmed before turning his venomous attention to the boy who dared speak her name.
