"Such rumors are an embarrassment only to those who spread them, for we all know such things to be false. It is truly an honor for your daughter. I am sure she must be one of the great beauties of the kingdom. Shall there be some public feast? I imagine the foul rumors have spread in part due to the seaming secrecy. I'm sure the people long to see their new princess."

Zachary Lannister enters the wedding celebration and sees the groom surrounded by a crowd of other lords and ladies. He approaches them.
"Congradulations to both you and your bride on this happy day, Ser Rhodri. It's rare that two people ever look so perfect together, but it seems to me as if you two will enjoy a healthy marriage."

"Thank you good ser. Becca is a truly dazzling woman. I am amazed with my own good fortune."
Becca approaches arm in arm with a stunning woman. Both have striking, pale hair and lavender eyes, the legacy of their mother, Lady Daella Targaryen.
"Ser Zachary, please let me introduce my Lady Wife, Becca Royce, and her sister, Ava Dondarrion."
Becca is a striking woman, tall, graceful and strong. Ava, however, is the more classic beauty, with soft features and forgiving eyes -- and younger, only twenty. Few women in the world could rival her youthful beauty.

Sarane brightened when Ser Breyn approached. "Ser Breyn, how lovely to see you again. And at a feast, where no one is like to be killed." She smiled and looked at him through her lashes. Really, his missing eye wasn't so awful.

The Redspear shouts for the musicians to start playing, takes hold of his new wife and starts to dance.
"Everyone, it is time to celebrate and dance!"
"Lady Sarane, do the Royces a favor and cheer dour Breyn with a dance. Zachary, please take young Ava, whose sister I have stolen! Everyone into the dance!"

Lord Syd entered while the musicians were playing a spritely tune. The celebrant, Ser Rhodri, was loudly drunk, pairing up everyone in sight and ordering them to dance. Syd made his way to the far wall, partner-less. To his satisfaction, he noticed his sister, Sarane, dancing with Ser Breyn Royce, a good man. Syd waited for the dance to end when he would offer his congratulations.

Giving into the Red Spear's drunken demands, with a laugh and a smile, Zachary took Lady Ava's hand and began to dance.

Lord Syd tapped Ser Breyn on the shoulder. "May I cut in for just a moment? I promise you'll have her back by the next song."

"A dance for the new couple!" Sarane agreed, turning to Ser Breyn. "Shall we then, Ser? I promise that I'm not too clumsy, and I can cheer even the most dour of knights." Although she didn't look, she was aware of Ser Zachary dancing with Lady Ava. Was that supposed to be a match in the making?

"I would be honoured dear lady," smiled Ser Breyn as he took Sarane's hand. As they danced, he whispered in her ear "You know that all men in here glare at me in jealousy for dancing with the most beautiful woman in the room."

Ser Breyn stepped aside at Lord Starks request and with a smile said "I eagerly await the next song."

Sarane laughed lightly. "You flatter me, Ser Breyn. They look in wonder, perhaps, that the South has thawed Mistress Winter." When her brother asked to cut in, she let an annoyed look flit across her face. "The next song, of course," she told Ser Breyn before taking Syd's hand.
"Good evening, brother," she told him stiffly and then leaned in a little closer to whisper, "Everything's going well."

"Sorry for that, and I assure you it was not out of jealousy. If you are actually interested in the man, feel free to dance with him. But do not try to manipulate him. He is a valuable ally." The music was so loud that no one could've possibly heard his words.

Sarane shook her head slightly. "I could hardly refuse our host's exhortations to dance, now could I? And are you sure he's an ally?" She looked around; the music and dancing ensured she could not be overheard. "I've learned from Selena that the Lannisters and the Royces are striking an alliance."

Rhodri pauses in his dancing to see if his sister is still present.
