[Reds Keep]
The doors swung open and guards halted "your grace", they said with a bow. Mina knew this was going to be hard getting used to, it was the first time she has attended her duties since her fathers death.
She walked slowly with up to the throne with every step making the sound of her boots against the floor, echoing through the Keep in an unavoidable silence.
She made it to the throne, eyeing it, feeling the cold iron that her father had once sat on. She slowly took a seat, staring into the abyss of the Reds Keep, only the guards and court was present. The maester started reading, "Lady Mina Of House Mudd, The Bastard and Lady Paramount of the Crownlands, we crown you the Queen of House Mudd"
Spontaneous clapping surrounded the Keep "All hail the Queen", "Long live the Queen", shouted the court.
"Silence!"
The court silenced immediately with confused gazes surrounding the room.
Mina nodded to the Maester, who ordered the guards with hand gestures. The guards gathered everyone up and organised everyone out of the Keep.
"What's wrong your Grace?"
"What's wrong? What's wrong? We're basically celebrating my fathers death, that's what wrong." Whispered Mina to the Maester, she whispered loud enough for her mother to hear at the end of the room. Her left eye twitched and her mother looked away in disgust.
"Sorry, your grace. I must deeply apolo-" Replied the maester before he was cut of by his Squire
"Maester," said the Squire breathing heavily and resting his hands on his knees "We got a raven from riverrun, the capital, We are invited to the court in riverrun and I-I-I think the king is dead"
"What? when? How?" Said Mina with a confused quiver in her voice, she stood up hurridley hoping to hear more news.
"Long live the king, he was a good king that one" said the Maester with sorrow in and a tremble in his voice
Mina's mother cut in, "Pack your bags Mina we're going to riverrun. Also his son Markas just had his coronation. He is the king now"
"Very well, then it is decided. Tell the Master of Ships to get a ship ready. I'll pack my bags" replied Mina
Mina walked off into her chambers, not knowing what to do. She just had her coronation and dismissed it, the king is dead and a new king has been crowned and her father is dead. Now she is off to riverrun, the capital. This is the worst week for her but she will listen and follow her fathers words. She is a new Lady, doesn't know how to rule, dress and have manners in general. She has a lot to learn and most important of all. She should teach others not fear her because of her red eye. Many think she is cursed and punished but that will not stop her.
