With many windows overlooking the sea, the Lord's Solar is a bright and pleasant place. With a theme of red and gold and lions, it is clear whose Solar this is.

Lord Tybolt Lannister sat idly in the high-backed chair, reading a novel. Utter trash, of course, but it was the most popular trash in the West at the moment, so he read it anyhow. He was seated tall and straight, his posture impeccable. He waited for Maester Aedred to show up. He had told the man to take his time, but he had not meant it so literally. He drummed his fingers on the desk, waiting, reading the mindless drivel.

The elder man enters the room and bows, his chains hit the floor. "My lord, how may I help you?"

The book recieved a dog-eared page and hit the desk with a bang. "Took your time, didn't you?" Tybolt said icily. "Nevermind that, for now," he said as the maester began to explain. He got up and leaned over the desk. "So we will be going to Kings Landing to treat with the King and the other Lords Paramount. Do I have any correspondence?" He held out a hand as if expecting something.

"I stopped by the Rookery, my Lord, A letter from the Hightower." He said handing it to him the seal remains unbroken.

Tybolt took it, breaking the seal swiftly. He read it over, then laughed. "He flatters me. The Lord Hightower's nose must certainly be stained brown." He handed the letter to the maester, letting him read it as well. "He does have a point, though. The war must needs end. I am sure the economy of the West would prosper if the war were to end and overland trade become safe again." He nodded. "Should I reply?"

"Yes my lord, the Reach are out closet allies, in region and faith. It is wise to start with them." He says with his head bowed.

"You seem very complaisant this afternoon, maester. Is everything alright?" Tybolt couldn't have given less of a shit regarding the maester's health, so long as he was useful, and the maester knew this. Besides, what a pain it would be for Tybolt to get acquainted with a new maester, perhaps one not so trustworthy as Aedred.

"I am fine, my Lord. Is there anything else you request?" He asked.

"Yes, as a matter of fact, there is. Take down this reply to my Lord Hightower." He waited while the Maester found both paper and ink, then dictated the letter. "Let me see it." He approved the words, eyes sliding over the page shockingly quickly. "Good, good. Have this sent immediately. And please tell my steward to have my things and Joanna's things packed at once. I'm sure there will be a lord or two eager to take her off my hands."

"As you wish, my lord." He bows and takes the letter. Walking downstairs. Soon hours later a knock comes to the door.

"Come in," called Tybolt, not bothering to look up from the terrible novel. He was bored, and in a good mood. He drank from a tumbler of wine, idling away his leisure hours.

The big busted Joanna enters and bows. "Are you leaving brother?" She asks with a smile.

Tybolt frowned. Joanna...how he longed to have her married off, the farther away the better. Perhaps somewhere north, or somewhere far to the south. "Soon enough, I will be. You're coming, too," he said, over the top of his book, not even looking at her.

"Oh okay, as you wish my lord, is there anything you require of me?" She tilts her head and smiles.
