"It has many bad memories associated with it. It was initially carved out of Highgarden. Let them take it back." Talyn suggested.

"Hmm. if the memories are that bad we could pull the keep down and rebuild another for some deserving landless knight one day," she said. "It doesn't matter to me. Harrenhal will be yours."

Talyn shrugged, "The bad memories are mine alone your grace. You can imagine that growing up in my father's house was... difficult."

She could.
"Oh yes. Harrenhal will be a new start for you then, and for Kyma too, as well as all the orphans you mean to raise. I'll have the papers drawn up as soon as possible, my lord."

Talyn bowed, "I am your grace's most humble servant."

You'd better be, she thought, but made herself smile in response.
"Good, then go to Kyma and tell her of our conversation. i'll want to speak with her at some point, but you should tell her about this yourself."

Talyn nodded, "yes your grace. I have your leave?" He said, bowing his head again.

"Of course. I will speak with you again soon.."

Rhaenys met Corwyn with a grim expression. She trusted him but had grown to dread his visits.
"Have a seat and tell me the bad news," she said.

"Your grace," Corwyn said, sitting. "I came to initially tell you of another dream but I have had one just this night which is... worse."
As was custom he closed his eyes and remained silent for a long moment. "I dreamed of a queen who falls, losing her crown in the process. She manages to grab it with her finger tips but there are three chains of gold, silver and brass, which wrap around her hand. She grabs on but is held by the chains, unable to climb to safety with the crown in her possession."
He opened his eyes, his tone dark. "Do you recognize something?"

Rhaenys shivered at the implication of the dream. There was fear in her eyes and anger too,
"I do," she said. "And I would like to know if there is anything else you can tell me. Where was the queen, when she fell?"

"At a cliff, I believe." Corwyn replied quietly. "If you'll allow me to say so, I think it is a true miracle that the Old Gods have granted us two warnings. It seems the actions taken upon the first dream were not sufficient, else I would not have had this one." He looked at Rhaenys with his mysterious moss green eyes. "But trust me when I say this is our last warning. From now on it it sink or swim."
