Willas Tyrell, a background character I hope gets more attention in the show than the books.
I'm not going to lie, mundane. I'm not overly thrilled about my house's recent alliance. King Joffrey worries me deeply. He is cruel, vicious, rash, ... stupid. No good can come of his rule, for the people, nor the realm.
I suppose although I am heir, my father has the final say in what we do.
[Taps his walking stick on the ground in annoyance, and the gold inlaid ebony makes a resounding crack.]
It doesn't mean I have to like it though. You know, now that I think of it, people are making a lot of decisions for me that I'd rather they wouldn't. Grandmother seems set to marry me off. I believe her latest attempt at a match is Sansa Stark.
["Oh Really?"]
Stop looking at me like that. I'm sure she's a lovely girl, but I've never even met her. Beyond that, it has never felt right to me that people are commanded in to marriages, men or women. Yes, it sometimes works out, and it can be a valuable political tool, if you have no scruples ... But it seems a cruel and unusual punishment to be married to someone you don't know, much less love, doesn't it?
