“A new gown?” she said, as wary1 as she was astonished. “More lovely than any you have worn, my lady,” the old woman promised. She measured Sansa’s hips2 with a length of knotted string. “All silk and Myrish lace, with satin linings3. You will be very beautiful. The queen herself has commanded it.” “Which queen?” Margaery was not yet Joff ‘s queen, but she had been Renly’s. Or did she mean the Queen of Thorns?

You will be pleased, I know you will. You shall have smallclothes and hose as well, kirtles and mantles8 and cloaks, and all else befitting a... a lovely young lady of noble birth.” “Will they be ready in time for the king’s wedding?” “Oh, sooner, much sooner, Her Grace insists. I have six seamstresses and twelve
