"But how long before those swords are direct at cousins, brothers, Sisters?"

Ariel looked at Edmure. "Shall I take it to mean that you swear to neither of us, then?"

"Never. I only want to know that one person and one person alone is the ruler."

"Then you must make a choice, my lord," Rhaenys said.

Ragnor arrives late, head throbbing from the drinking he did at the bonfire. He takes stock of the proceedings and sneaks in quietly, his captains following behind.

"A choice based on what? You claim to be Queen" Edmure looks to Rhaenys. "She claims to be Queen." He points at Ariel, "So who is the Queen?"

Maekar interjected "Her Grace Queen Rhaenys has the sword."

"And so do I? There has already been one war fought over who wielded that blade will there be another?"

Ariel looked at Edmure with a shrug. "Rhaenys has the sword, I have the blood, and we've agreed not to fight over the matter now. So you'll have to decide for yourself."

"And I have an axe. Damn fine one, too. That make me King of the Seven Kingdoms?" Ragnor calls from the rear of those assembled.

"Thats it you Dragons. You say you will not fight over the matter 'now.' That will never work there must be one ruler. One line must give up there claim or two lines become one."

"I disagree." Ragnor calls back to Dawnrose. "Why should there be one ruler? Why not go back to the old days, when there were many kings, before tyrants and despots like Rodrick the Mad and Callen the Fool ruled our lands? The blood of kings flows in my veins as well, much as it does some dragon-blooded bastards from the East."

"I will not yield," Rhaenys answered. "I was born to do this."

"Nor will I yield," said Ariel. She stepped out, then towards Rhaenys.
"But whichever of us is Queen, Edmure commands neither of us. I will not draw against you now, not when we need every sword, every dragon, every whisperer we can find to save our realm." She stopped directly in front of her rival. "Your army is larger than mine, so I follow your lead in this." With that, she extended her open right hand.
