Chapter Review
Jaime Lannister bids farewell to his uncle Kevan who is leaving King’s Landing with his son Lancel and the bones of his brother Tywin. The conversation doesn’t go quite as Jaime hoped. Kevan is furious at both twins for their incest, the shame their bringing to the family, and Cersei’s refusal to toe (Kevan’s version of) the party line. Kevan is headed to the Riverlands where rumor has it that Sandor Clegane has joined forces with Beric Dondarrion to terrorize the citizens. Jaime’s warning to be careful manages to sound like a threat.
Jamie notes that King’s Landing seems emptier now that the Tyrells have left. He sees Loras Tyrell practicing jousting with envy, the younger Kingsguard is the better horseman. He finds his sister in her cups and hanging with Pycelle, Taena Merryweather, and King Tommen. Lollys Stokeworth has given birth, and the child’s stepfather (Bronn) has thoughtfully named the baby Tyrion. Cersei is not amused.
Jaime dismisses everyone and tries to get Cersei to see sense with her new friends. Nobody knows the true loyalties of Qyburn, Taena, nor the Kettleblacks and these have become her confidantes. She doubles down wanting the comely but untested Aurane Waters to be the Master of Ship. He’s getting concerning Aerys II-vibes from his sister. She prefers to think of herself as the female Tywin.
