101. Tyrants

'Do you believe we are here for a reason?' Daenerys asked 'I am here to free the world from tyrants that is my destiny and I will serve it no matter what the cost.' she informed him

'It could be a fortnight for Jon and his army make it to Kings Landing... offer Cersei her life in order for her surrender, if there is a chance to avoid slaughter we should take it.' Tyrion told her.

'Speaking to your sister will not stop the slaughter but perhaps it is good that the people see that Daenerys stormborn has offered every chance at peace and that Cersei Lannister denied them that. They should know who to blame when the sky falls down upon them.'

'I have worked under tyrants my whole life' varys told tyrion 'they always believe in destiny.'

'She was a girl that walked into the fire with three stones and came out a woman with three dragons' tyrion reminded him 'how could she not believe in destiny?'

'Perhaps that is the problem. her whole life she has been convinced that she was born to save us all.'

'And how do you know if she wasn't?' tyrion questioned

'And there's the problem of Jon Snow' varys went on 'Perhaps it is actually a solution you know them both who do you think would make a better ruler?'

'He does not not want the throne that is why he bent the knee.' Tyrion reminded him

'He is a rightful heir and he is a man.'

'Joffrey was a man, he had a cock and it didn't matter didn't make him a good king.' Tyrion recalled.

'It gives him a better claim though.' Varys said

'At a certain point in time you fight for the person you believe in.' tyrion told him.

'Even if it is a mistake?'

'I think she will do what is right with the help of her loyal advisers' Tyrion told him.

'The people are innocent just like the people you liberated in Maureen.'

'The slaves liberated the masters they did that themselves' Daenerys told him

'They are scared anyone who betrays cersei will see their family butchered you cannot expect them to be heroes they are hostages!' tyrion told her 'Thousands of children will die if the city burns.'

'Your sister uses her enemies weaknesses against them that's what she thinks our mercy is weakness. She is wrong. Mercy is our strength. Our mercy towards future generations who will not be held hostage by a tyrant. Ready the unsullied tonight we sail for kings landing.'

'cersei's followers will abandon her if they know the war is lost, give them a chance! Tyrion begged 'if the city surrenders it will ring the bells and raise the gates please if you hear the ringing the bells call off the attack!' Tyrion bagged

'Wait for me outside the city you will know when it's time' she told Grey worm.

'Your brother was stopped trying to get past our lines. It seems he hasn't abandoned his sister.' Dani told tyrion 'Next time you fail me will be the last time you fail me.' she warned him.

'Where are you going?' a guard asked as sandor and arya approached kings landing, approached the capital.

'I am arya stark and I am going to kill queen cersei.' the guard looked between them confused.

'Think about it, if she kills the queen this war is over won't be a siege might not even die tomorrow' Sandor told him

'I need to go talk to my captain'

'Go ahead and talk to him' Sandor said as they rode past.
