Lady Elisabeth Stark: "applauds"
Tyros Lannister applauds
Timothy Chenaux frowns and considers the remarks lightly.

Timothy Chenaux: We thank you for all whose support and skill surround and sustain the beginning of life.
Brigit Frey-Lannister prays also and listens carefully.
Autumn of Wendwater : lowers her chin to her chest
Nymeros Edric Martell shifts to the other side of the Great Sept, still peering about, quickly but unsuccessfully stifling a sigh of irritation. Where is she? why was she not waiting for him, as his missive had instructed.
Lady Elisabeth Stark: "lowers her head in respect, prays with everyone else"
Tahekus Lorch looks at the child for a moment, then looks to the Queen before losing himself in deep thought, wondering if he might have any little bastards running around somewhere.
Timothy Chenaux: We thank you that we are known to you by name and loved by you from all eternity.
Timothy Chenaux: We thank you for the gift of this child, entrusted to our care.

Timothy Chenaux: King Aedan and Queen Brigit, what name do you give to this child?
Aedan Targaryen : Tristan Targaryen

Tyros Lannister obviously does not pray but does bow his head slightly.
Lαđy Rαnnα feels the tears slide down her cheeks
Timothy Chenaux holds forth his arms and says, "Queen Brigit bring the child to me. "
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell watching her cousin and his family she smiles and brushes back a lock of silver blond hair. She glances around to see Thierry standing with his sister and Good brother and blushes a pale pink. Aidan.. No, it was Aedan now, Aedan had promissed her her choice of a husband if she pledged him the Dorne with out trouble
Timothy Chenaux places the oil upon the forehead, lips and hands of the infant.

Thierry Frey looks at brigit and Aedan smileing
((All exit in order the High Septon, the King, The Queen, The Court follows to the throne room.))
Brigit Frey-Lannister passes Tristan to the wet nurse.
Aedan Targaryen makes his way up the steps and slowly lowers himself onto the throne
Thierry Frey walks to the base of the stairs looking up to the King as he sits on the throne.
Brigit Frey-Lannister looks up to him so handsome up there, takes a breath and waits.
Autumn of Wendwater : smiles clasping her hands in her lap as she looks up and then back to the queen
Tyros Lannister watches the new king ascend to the throne with a look of satisfaction and bit of smugness.
Aedan Targaryen motions his wife up
Lady Elisabeth Stark: "looks on at her friend wonders if this is her moment to shine"
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell finds herself standing next to the Kracken and looks up with a smile dancing across her freckled cheeks. She wasnt sure if it was THE Kracken, or his man. But by the maiden he was cute... Hum,, Maybe if Thierry was not polite enough she would choose him
Brigit Frey-Lannister slowly skirts gathered in her hands climbs the steps and kneels before him.
Aedan Targaryen looks as a pillow is brought in with the tiara on it he takes the tiara and slowly places it on her head slowly "rise my queen"
Autumn of Wendwater : hopes she has enough polish for the tiara
Brigit Frey-Lannister smiles, takes a long breath, whispers "thank you." and moves to the side.
Aedan Targaryen looks out to those gathered and calls "those who wish to swear fealty may do so now"
Tyros Lannister steps forward boldly not waiting on others and says, "I and House Lannister would you Grace."
Brigit Frey-Lannister is now known as Brigit Targaryen.
Aedan Targaryen nods to his cosuin "step forth Lord Lannister"
Tahekus Lorch follows silently behind his Lord, digging around in a small pouch seemingly looking for something.
Lady Najah Hewett smiled as she watched, but with sadness in her heart, she had hoped he would have returned in time to be here, she understod the importance why he had to deal with it now but she wanted Dare at her side now and always, her knees shook she had recieved the raven earlier that she was expected to so swear not only for her Father and the Family but for the House Tyrell and her betrothed
Lady Elisabeth Stark: "remember her cousins Lord Starks instructions wonders how it will be taken bye the new king and her half cousin. For the first time she is feeling very much like a pawn in a game between two men'"
Tyros Lannister approaches the steps and rise slowly up them and upon reaching the top takes a knee and says, "Here do I swear by mouth and hand, fealty and service to the Crown and the Iron Throne. To speak and to be silent. To do and to let be. To come and to go. To serve and teach. In such matters that concern this realm. In need or in plenty. In peace or in war. In living or in dying. Until the King depart his throne, death take me, or the world end. So say I, Tyros Lannister."
Aedan Targaryen listens closely and nods to his cousin
Tyros Lannister upon seeing the nod and says, "I wouls speak for House Lannister. As the King of the Rock knelt in ages past so I kneel to the dragon once again. To the Iron Throne I pledge the faith of Lannister and Casterly Rock. Hearth and heart and harvest we yield up to you, your grace. Our swords and spears and arrows are yours to command. Grant mercy to our weak, help to our helpless, and justice to all, and we shall never fail you. I swear it by earth and the lion. I swear it by the blood of our fathers back to the beginning. I swear it in the name of the Holy Seven. "
Aedan Targaryen looks to Thierry and motions him up with the Lannister cloak he had worn after his cousin finished
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell stands with almost perfect stillness, the youthful age to many not so youthful to a princess raised to this life. She watches as each in turn swear to her cousin
Thierry Frey steps up beside the Man holding the cloak out before him to the King as he lowers his head.
Tahekus Lorch finally finds whatever it was he was looking for and waits patiently.
Aedan Targaryen tips his head to Tyros as he sees the cloak offered "Lord Tyros Lannister, Lord of Casterly Rock I name you warden of the west. I give you the cloak of the Lannisters I wore as head of the family and hope you continue to head the family level headed and wisely"
Thierry Frey turns to the Man the cloak still presented out infront of him.
Tyros Lannister reach out and takes the cloak held out and manages to put in on over his plate.
Tyros Lannister bows his head and replies, 'House Lannister will serve the realm faithfully you Grace."
Lαđy Rαnnα : I pledge my loyaly and devotion ,to you King Aedan
Aedan Targaryen smiles to Lord Lannister "may prosperity fall on house Lannister as always"
Brigit Targaryen holds my hand out for my Aunt to join me on the steps.
Tyros Lannister nods and backs down the stairs slowly not disrespecting the king with his back.
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell moves forward, the white pearl strewn dress blinking in multi colored light coming through the stained windows of the throne room. The ruby and diamond of her crown held tight in her hair, proclaiming her rank as the Ruler of the Dorne. She sinks to a low curtsy before her cousin and good cousin and speaks with a lilting tone " I, Dearbhail Daenerys Martell, Princess and rightful ruler of the Dorne, swear the allegiance of the Dorne, and all its peoples, to Aedan Targaryen, Rightful king of the Seven Kingdoms. This I so swear, by the Seven"
Brigit Targaryen smiles and nearly chokes up at her beloved Princess Dear, nearly calls out for guards as the man moves toward her.
Aedan Targaryen smiles to Dear turning to the man who interrupted moving a hand to the sword he had been presented with as he listens
Tyros Lannister eyes widen at the massvie breach of protocol as Lady Frey speaks out of turn. he then shrugs a bit and watches as the Dornish nobles begin to argue.
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell looks up, a soft gasp as she see's the dark visage of her father, thinking a ghost returned. Untill she see's the purple eyes of thier Mother, and knows it is her brother. He is not the venomous for just any reason " Your dead"
Lady Elisabeth Stark is quite startled by the way the princess was grabed
Tahekus Lorch looks to his lord then to the man in black as he croses his arms over his chest.
Nymeros Edric Martell looks up at the throne. "This woman does not speak for Dorne, nor me. I am her elder brother, Nymeros, and if my father has died in my absence, then I hold the Dornish throne, not my sister." He looks down at Daenerys, confused, freezing in place. "Dead? Obviously not."
Thierry Frey hearing the unknown man he turns and looks between Dear and the stranger.
Kronos sensing a state of unrest in seeing the man's abrupt motions to the lady he unsheaths his sword
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell : But, Nym, your ship, it sank. They said you were dead, and then you didnt return with Father's death, though word was sent far and wide. Your Dead, I am the Dorne
Tahekus Lorch moves protectively infront of his Lord Tyros, his body tensing as he stares down at the man from his massive height
Kronos looks to the man "I do not think this is the time to disrespect the kin Lad"
Lady Elisabeth Stark steps back in case a fight breaks out
Aedan Targaryen relaxes a bit "then tell me Lord Martell, do you wish to swear Drone's fealty?" He looks seeing the Greyjoy draw his sword and shook his head calling out "sheath your blades and let's handle this in a civilized manner!"
Nymeros Edric Martell looks down at her, reaching up to stroke her cheek with gloved fingertips. "Come, come dragonlet... tell me you don't remember me... I did not sail as Father commanded... I had a duty to finish first. I am so sorry you've been alone..." He leans down and, cupping Dany's chin, kisses her soft, sweet lips.
Brigit Targaryen watches and listens silently.
Kronos bows his head to his grace
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell looks to Aedan as he speaks to her brother, her eyes narrow, the violet light sparking with in them. She Almost stomps a small red clad foot. Right up to the point when he kisses her, then her eyes go wide. She steps backwards and turns to Aedan " He is the Dorne. for now"
Thierry Frey confused about what just happened he back up to the side of the King. His face showing his consern if things are alright.
Nymeros Edric Martell glances up briefly and inclines his head respectfully. "My apologies, Your Grace. I do not refuse to swear fealty, but I would beg that you will realize that I have returned to King's landing only this morning and have found that you are King, my Father is dead and my sister was left alone. I would beg your indulgence to allow me a few days to gain my equilibrium." Nymeros buries his finges in Dany's hair and growls. "I am the Dorne and that ends that tale, little sister, little love. You are mine as well. Father gave you to me when you were one year old."
Tyros Lannister hand never moves to his sword but he does stand at readiness. He smiles as his guard steps in front of him.
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell does stomp her foot " Aedan said I may choose my groom. And HE is king."
Lady Elisabeth Stark trys to contain her amusement at the sibling rivaly, remebers to well the fights that her cousins Lord and Lady stark would have
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell stands up straight, brushing her hair back, she realizes she will get farther if she maintains her dignity " Yes Brother, as you say "
Tahekus Lorch tilts his head as he glares at the small dornish girl, clenching his large fists as he finds almost painful that no one has put her in her place yet. He looks to his Lord, Uttering something in some foriegn brutish sounding language.
Nymeros Edric Martell: And I am the head of our family. Promises made when you think me dead are not valid if I am not in agreement. Do not cross me, Daenerys; I still have a dog whip.
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell blinks
Aedan Targaryen nods to the Lord Martell "after Jaeron passed I did allow my little cousin that freedom, it's true. Lord Martell I will grant your request obviously you understand if fealty is not sworn I will of course have no choice but to count the dornish enemies of the kingdom"
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell her breathing spikes as her body shakes, remembering why he recieved the name Venomous was not just his tongue. She almost cowers, but she is a Targaryen and a Martell, there is no cower in her, she narrows her eyes slightly, and bows her head " as you say"
Lady Elisabeth Stark is shocked at the throught of Little Dearbhails being dog whiped, how could any one be so cruel
Kronos looks up to his grace "My King, I do appoligize for letting this lady step before me, but as I have sent word previously, House Greyjoy, all of the sworn houses of the Iron Isles, swear our swords, our lives, and our houses to you during your reign. We're not ones for formality, but you do have our loyalty my grace. And again we appoligize for the lady of the frey for not knowing her place in your court"
Tyros Lannister shakes his head to Lord Lorch and but seems to watch the scene with amusement. When Greyjoy speaks up he nods to the man in respect.
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell moves back as others come forward, trying to pull from her brothers grasp, with out appearing to
Aedan Targaryen chuckles and nods to Lord Greyjoy "may the iron islands remain strong as Valyrian Steel Lord Greyjoy"
Nymeros Edric Martell bows slowly. "I would beg leave to retire and speak with my sister on the morrow and then petition you at Court. I did not come to declare myself an enemy but I cannot declare myself a friend either. I beg your leave to retire?"
Kronos bows his head and taps his sheathed sword "and a long and prosperous reign to you my grace" and smiles with a bit of a crooked and bent smile
Aedan Targaryen nods to the Martell for the moment "request granted Lord Martell"
Nymeros Edric Martell bows gracefully. "I thank you for your indulgence. I will hope to beg audience with you very soon." Nymeros nods quietly to the queen. "Your Grace." Turning on his heel, he strides down the carpet and down the stairs, back to his ship.
Brigit Targaryen motions a serving woman for water, when she brings it I take two goblets and holds them in case the King needs also to whet his throat.
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell moving back to where she is almost hiding behind the thick columns. This home of hers, the red keep for so long a safe place, now no l onger
Tahekus Lorch watches the Dronish man leave with a small smirk on his face before muttering something in the same language as before, before turning his full attentino back to the King.
Brigit Targaryen hearld calls, "Next?"
Tyros Lannister just the watches the rest of the proceeds.
Nikolaoc Kozlov: My King greetings and I am glad to see you on your throne
Kronos shakes his head at the early departure and laughs a bit to himself "what a way to make a great first impression on your king boy"
Aedan Targaryen looks to the Maester as he walks in and nods "Maester Nik, for your hard work with moving the location of the Citadel I would like to name you Grand Maester Nik"
Nikolaoc Kozlov: i am honored your grace
Aedan Targaryen smiles "rise and join me then Grand Maester, you will have a seat on the small council"
Brigit Targaryen smiles to the wise Maester, nodding, holds out the goblet in case the King should chose to take it while the next man steps up.
Nikolaoc Kozlov: I hope to do the work to your satisfation My King
Tahekus Lorch quietly steps up to the steps, looking to the feet of the King Bowing his head and awaiting permission to speak.
Aedan Targaryen looks down and calls out "rise good Ser"
Tahekus Lorch rises slowly, and takes a few steps upwards even more slowly so as not to cause them to think he meant harm.
Tahekus Lorch Retrieves a small piece of what looks like a hunk of dried jerky, offering it to the king "I know not pretty word for such ceremony. But I, Tahekus Lorch, Head of Lion Gaurd and Retainer of Lannister house, Pledge Fealty to you as King of Seven by offer this, with promise to do same to all enemy of realm. I offer you this severed phallus of a murderer I execute upon first day as Lion Gaurd." Bows his head low before taking a knee.
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell gasps, and tries to see it, with out appearing to try and see it, though she probably fails dreadfully
Brigit Targaryen shudders.
Aedan Targaryen takes the severed phallic object and held it to Thierry to take "Thank you Ser Lorch, are you the head of the Lorch family?"
Tahekus Lorch : That I know of, Grace. ::he answers in his strange and barbaric accent.::
Tahekus Lorch : I only member of House.
Aedan Targaryen nods "then may the Lorch family prosper under your guidance Lord Lorch"
Tahekus Lorch : I thank, grace. Long live King Aedan Targaryan. Lord of Seven. ::he replies before slowly stepping backwards and rising.
Nikolaoc Kozlov: hear hear
Brigit Targaryen nods to Lady Elisabeth.
Lady Elisabeth Stark: "moves forward and custys"
Aedan Targaryen turns and looks to the goblet and shakes his head looking back out noting the lady of the Starks, he offers a nod "rise lady of the Starks"
Lady Elisabeth Stark: my dear King I personaly wish you good fortune and all the blessings that come to you in your reign, my dear king, my cousin Lord Stark has forbidden me to to sware loyaty as he belives this is matter between you and him...
Lady Elisabeth Stark: lowers her head
Brigit Targaryen sighs, she knew why he would not take the goblet from her, and she narrows her eyes for a moment at her husband, handing one goblet back to the servant, she drinks a long drink from the other and puts it too on the tray, waving off the servant and looks down to hear Lady Elisabeth.
Tyros Lannister watches Lord Lorch with a slight smile. And nods to him as he retunrs with a quiet, 'Well done."
Aedan Targaryen raises a brow "excuse me? Lord Stark does not wish to swear fealty to the iron throne, I should have expected no less after his treasonous acts in the past"
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell glances across the room at Thierry standing near the King, she looks to her good cousin Brigit, who has been her rock, and now to the house of Stark. She watches
Brigit Targaryen narrows her eyes farther hearing the words of the woman she held dear growing up. whispers, "the wolves are treasonous."
Lady Elisabeth Stark: "my dear king his intentions have not been made known to me only that I am forbidden"
Tyros Lannister raise an eyebrow at hearing the Stark woman speak but remains silent. He looks to the king and asks, "May i speak your Grace?"
Aedan Targaryen nods "you may Lord Lannister"
Nikolaoc Kozlov whispers: Keep her here My King ........ as a guest of course
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell leans back, her eyes wide, the Starks refusing the North's allegiance to the Iron throne?
Thierry Frey looks between the Woman and the King.
Tahekus Lorch nods to his lord with a smile, then Glares at the Stark woman, clenching his hands tightly before looking back to Lord Lannister.
Lady Elisabeth Stark: "feels eyes on her, and wonders what her cousin Lord Stark is up to, let alone why he sent her"
Nikolaoc Kozlov whispers: She is the wolf's pawn but she may be useful
Lady Elisabeth Stark: "my king the only other thing I have been told by my Lord Stark is this is a matter not for women"
Lady Elisabeth Stark lowers her head, starts to feel a little scared
Brigit Targaryen hisses, motions the guards bar the doors just in case, both behind the throne leading to the small council chanber and the front doors leading out to the antiroom.
Tyros Lannister nods and says, 'Thank you, your Grace. I would concur. Let Lady Stark remain here as a guest of the court. Obviously Lord Stark meerly wants to come and swear the oath himself. The Lady must certain want to be here for the great event where her cousin kneels to the Dragon as their ancestors did." He adds with the barest hint of a smile, 'The kingdoms know of you generousity and care for your subjects. I am certain the Lady Stark could be safer no where else."
Nikolaoc Kozlov: Well Put, Lord Lannister
Kronos looks to the King "Your Grace if I may, Lord Stark was recently injured with the kidnapping of Ladystark by Hillstribe men, I believe it is his place to swear his fealty to you personally and I would request you show Lady Stark kindness in this reguard, as I am sure Lord Stark will make the journey to seek an audience with you personally when he is of heath"
Aedan Targaryen nods to both his cousin and the Maester "their words ring true I acted out of a moment of anger. Lady Elisabeth Stark you may send a raven to Winterfell this night and request your Lord cousin come as he has been summoned by the court of course once his health returns" he tips his head to Lord Greyjoy
Lady Elisabeth Stark smiles at Lord Lannister for his interven, tho she not quire sure what is going on, and he is right I did wish to come to court for the new king and her dear friend
Nikolaoc Kozlov: if the lady will write out the note i will attach it to a Raven
Lady Elisabeth Stark: "curstys again to her King.... Thank you so much my King I am sure my cousin Lord Stark will appecate this"
Aedan Targaryen nods "until then we will see you are well looked after"
Lady Elisabeth Stark: "if that is what my king wish's"
Lady Elisabeth Stark: "thank you for your kindness my king"
Tyros Lannister bows and says, 'You Grace I beg leave to retire. My wife is not well and I would like to see to her."
Tahekus Lorch tilts his head ever so slightly as the Lady Stark Curtseys, apparently trying to get a better view of something a bit further north....but then resumes his normal Posture, standing gaurd of lord lannister.
Aedan Targaryen nods "cousin, I look forward to seeing little Lannisters about soon" he chuckles "good evening Lord Lannister"
Tyros Lannister nods and replys, 'Thank you your Grace. My Lords and Ladies I bid you good evening."
Brigit Targaryen calls to Tyros, "and my regards to your lovely wife, Lord Tyros."
Tyros Lannister nods to the queen and says, 'I shall your Grace. She will delighted to receive them."
Aedan Targaryen looks about "it seems that was the last for the evening"
Tahekus Lorch bows his head to the King feeling a bit out of place as normally he would simply leave and got to the nearest bawdy house, but now he was in the presence of his Lords King and seemed a bit unsure of what to do.
Aedan Targaryen smiles and tips his head to Lord Lorch "good evening Lord Lorch"
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell speaks softly " Permission to be excused your Grace" the slight tremble in her voice still present
Brigit Targaryen nods to Princess Dear and motions her out the back way through the small council chamber.
Tahekus Lorch smiles thankfully to the king, bowing his head again causing his braided hair with numerous braids to fall over his shoulder before falling in behind his Lord.
Dearbhail Daenerys Martell moves up through the doors, a soft curtsy as she goes, heading up to her chambers
Aedan Targaryen nods to Dear and stands "if any present require anything further speak now or wait until the next day court is held"
Nikolaoc Kozlov: bows to the king
Nikolaoc Kozlov: My Lord I am off to the rookery
Nikolaoc Kozlov: come with me Lady elisabeth
Kronos bows his head to the king and asks "Your grace, I would like to retire to my ship and make haste back to the islands, if it pleases you?"
Lady Elisabeth Stark wonders what she must do now
Nikolaoc Kozlov: I will show you the ravens
Aedan Targaryen smiles "I wish you a speedy trip Lord Greyjoy"
Lady Elisabeth Stark: "with your graces permission I take my leave"
Kronos looks to Lady Stark "I'll stop in winterfell first chance I get to speak to Lord Stark and urge him to make his way south" and turns to the doors to make his retreat
Nikolaoc Kozlov: I will return her after the note is sent
Nikolaoc Kozlov: i am sure the Queen will want to see to her
Lady Elisabeth Stark smiles at Lord Kronos , thank you my lord
Aedan Targaryen nods "thank you Grand Maester"
Lady Elisabeth Stark turns to leave the court
Aedan Targaryen looks to his squire and slaps him on the back "well done Thierry"
Brigit Targaryen smiles to Thierry, "you did wonderful, little brother." she snickers.
Thierry Frey looks up to the King and smile
Thierry Frey : What will be done with the Starks?
Aedan Targaryen sighs "this is an issue we will have to handle carefully. We will await their next move and act accordingly"
Thierry Frey nods as he looks at his sister then back to the King. "My grace may i retire for the night. im sure you would like time with Brigit."
Aedan Targaryen smiles and nods "tomorrow Thierry I want you to practice with the kingsguard"
Nikolaoc Kozlov: your grace the bird is sent
Lady Elisabeth Stark: "your graces"
Nikolaoc Kozlov: and My queen i bring your guest back
Lady Elisabeth Stark smiles at her queen
Thierry Frey taks a step back and lowers his head. "As you wish. " He walks back slowly before raising his head and starts to the door
Brigit Targaryen descends the steps, "Lady Elisabeth, you may retire in one of the apartments set aside for nobles of the major houses. Maester can you show her to an empty apartment for me please?" was tired herself and wished only the King's attention now.
Lady Elisabeth Stark: "yes my queen"
Nikolaoc Kozlov: yes My Queen
Nikolaoc Kozlov: this way Lady elisabeht
Brigit Targaryen smiles cause he didn't have to do it, "thank you Grand Maester Nik, I do appreciate it."
Lady Elisabeth Stark follower Master Kozlov
Lady Elisabeth Stark: "good day my queen"
Brigit Targaryen nods to the Lady, the looks up to the King and takes a long breath.
