The king is dead, they told him, never knowing that Joffrey was his son as well as his sovereign. “The Imp1 opened his throat with a dagger,” a costermonger declared at the roadside inn where they spent the night. “He drank his blood from a big gold chalice2.” The man did not recognize the bearded one-handed knight3 with the big bat on his shield, no more than any of them, so he said things he might otherwise have swallowed, had he known who was listening. “It was poison did the deed,” the innkeep insisted. “The boy’s face turned black as a plum.” “May the Father judge him justly,” murmured a septon. “The dwarf5’s wife did the murder with him,” swore an archer6 in Lord Rowan’s livery. “Afterward7, she vanished from the hall in a puff9 of brimstone, and a ghostly direwolf was seen prowling the Red Keep, blood dripping from his jaws10.” Jaime sat silent through it all, letting the words wash over him, a horn of ale forgotten in his one good hand. Joffrey. My blood. My firstborn. My son. He tried to bring the boy’s face to mind, but his features kept turning into Cersei’s. She will be in mourning, her hair in disarray11 and her eyes red from crying, her mouth trembling as she tries to speak. She will cry again when she sees me, though she’ll fight the tears. His sister seldom wept but when she was with him. She could not stand for others to think her weak. Only to her twin did she show her wounds. She will look to me for comfort and revenge. They rode hard the next day, at Jaime’s insistence
