addi’s favourite asoiaf quotes: a game of thrones, eddard xii, page 488


‘“i promise you, no matter where you flee, robert’s wrath will follow you, to the back of beyond if need be.”


the queen stood. “and what of my wrath, lord stark?” she asked softly. her eyes searched his face. “you should have taken the realm for yourself. it was there for the taking. jaime told me how you found him on the iron throne the day king’s landing fell, and made him yield it up. that was your moment. all you needed to do was climb those steps, and sit. such a sad mistake.”


“i have made more mistakes than you can possibly imagine,” ned said, “but that was not one of them.”


“oh, but it was, my lord,” cersei insisted. “when you play the game of thrones, you win or you die. there is no middle ground.”

All the prayers they had taught her as a girl came back to Cersei in her cell, and she made up new ones as needed, calling on the Mother and the Maiden, on the Father and the Warrior, on the Crone and the Smith. She had even prayed to the Stranger. Any god in a storm. The Seven proved as deaf as their earthly servants. Cersei gave them all the words that she had in her, gave them everything but tears. That they will never have, she told herself.
