Talyn remained nonplussed. "Did you see anything in his demeanor that suggested he was prepared to bend the knee? Because what you are describing does not sound like Mallister to me."

"Well it was a chance that he might and then this whole mess with him rebelling could be solved with a battle."

Rhaenys arrived in the Kings Pyre. She'd heard Lord Dawnrose's man had arrived and was curious to see him.
"Ser Randal," she said. "Good day to you."

"Yes it is Your Grace." Randal smiled at the Queen and bowed deeply. "I have need of your fine script Your Grace. A note saying that my brother has the power given by you to arrest Mallister and bring him her. I also think adding that his men will not be harmed would help."

Rhaenys considered.
"Lord Mallister does not believe that Lord Dawnrose has my confidence in this matter?"

"No he doesn't not. He seemed to take great pleasure in calling Edmure boy."

Rhaenys sighed.
"The difference in their ages is clearly a problem here. I will write the letter. I am surprised that Mallister is willing to be arrested at all."

"I was surprised as well. Whether he actually does it remains to be seen. But gaining this letter loses no lives and only puts greater strain on Mallisters food reserves."

Rhaenys called for pen and paper and started to write.
"Tell me exactly what was said, if you will."

Talyn is seated in his solar, with his feet up. He is reading reports from his scouts.
"Your grace," He says.

"Talyn," Rhaenys answered.
She sat opposite him and smiled but there was a nervous, edgy quality to her movements as well as her expression. Already too pale and thin when she'd left Harrenhal, she looked even worse now and the dark circles beneath her eyes stood out more than ever.
"I am most urgent need of your council," she said. "The realm bleeds and I am not strong enough to stop the flow. To that end, I am looking to alter the balance of power among my most faithful. I have been considering the matter on my travels and have decided that I must make some changes. Can we be assured of complete privacy here in this room? I do not wish to be interrupted while I explain to you the decisions I have made."
