She dreamt she sat the Iron Throne, high above them all.
The courtiers were brightly colored mice below. Great lords and proud ladies knelt before her. Bold young knights2 laid their swords at her feet and pleaded for her favors, and the queen smiled down at them. Until the dwarf3 appeared as if from nowhere, pointing at her and howling with laughter. The lords and ladies began to chuckle4 too, hiding their smiles behind their hands. Only then did the queen realize she was naked.
Horrified5, she tried to cover herself with her hands. The barbs6 and blades of the Iron Throne bit into her flesh as she crouched7 to hide her shame. Blood ran red down her legs, as steel teeth gnawed8 at her buttocks. When she tried to stand, her foot slipped through a gap in the twisted metal. The more she struggled the more the throne engulfed10 her, tearing chunks11 of flesh from her breasts and belly12, slicing at her arms and legs until they were slick and red, glistening13.
And all the while her brother capered14 below, laughing.
His merriment still echoed in her ears when she felt a light touch on her shoulder, and woke suddenly. For half a heartbeat the hand seemed part of the nightmare, and Cersei cried out, but it was only Senelle. The maid’s face was white and frightened.
