[ "Treat her as you would any queen, she is carrying my child."

The memory is thick and sweet, just like the tone his voice once held when he spoke of Dalla to Jon Snow -- Snow who would betray them, Snow who he carried no false ideals about. But he had left her in the protection of him and he hadn't failed him, no, yet she had taken her last breath bearing his child. It hurt more than he ever thought it could of.

Dalla -- not his, but free, wild, and overwhelmingly beautiful to him. She was a good woman, better than any he might have met or will ever meet. And now his child is under the care of Val and in the palms of those who would sooner see their freedom relinquished.

"I am my own champion, my own fool, and my own harpist," ] And I'm yours as much as I was ever anyone's.
