The new crown that his father had given the Faith stood twice as tall as the one the mob had smashed, a glory of crystal and spun¹ gold. Rainbow light flashed and shimmered² every time the High Septon moved his head, but Tyrion had to wonder how the man could bear the weight. And even he had to concede that Joffrey and Margaery made a regal couple, as they stood side-by-side between the towering gilded³ statues of the Father and the Mother.  The bride was lovely in ivory silk and Myrish lace, her skirts decorated with floral patterns picked out in seed pearls. As Renly’s widow, she might have worn the Baratheon colors, gold and black, yet she came to them a Tyrell, in a maiden⁴’s cloak made of a hundred cloth-of-gold roses sewn to green velvet⁵. He wondered if she really was a maiden. Not that Joffrey is like to know the difference.  The king looked near as splendid as his bride, in his doublet of dusky rose, beneath a cloak of deep crimson⁷ velvet blazoned⁹ with his stag and lion. The crown rested easily on his curls, gold on gold. I saved that bloody¹⁰ crown for him. Tyrion shifted his weight uncomfortably from one foot to the other. He could not stand still. Too much wine. He should have thought to relieve himself before they set out from the Red Keep. The sleepless¹¹ night he’d spent with Shae was making itself felt too, but most of all he wanted to strangle his bloody royal nephew.  I am no stranger to Valyrian steel, the boy had boasted. The septons were always going on about how the Father Above judges us all. If the Father would be so good as to topple over and crush Joff like a dung beetle
