Summary
Tyrion Lannister climbed the winding steps to the marriage tower, each turn a reminder of the folly that passed for kingcraft in King’s Landing. At the top waited his father’s newest bride—a girl the court, with its usual talent for spite, now called his 'stepmother'.
She had been the bolder Stark twin, the one who thought she could dance around the Lion of Casterly Rock and live. Instead, her miscalculation had become Tywin’s victory—cold, absolute, and carried out with the precision of a man who’d rather break a life than bend an inch.
Now she lingered in the dim chambers that passed for her new world, bound to a marriage forged in humiliation and Northern pride ground under Lannister gold. Someone had to sit with her in that half-lit exile, to witness what power had wrought and what it feared to look upon.
And in all the Red Keep, only Tyrion dared to open that door.
