there was tension in the air tonight, and lysara hated to think that it might ruin what could otherwise be a perfectly good party. she could sympathise with a princess unwilling to make a marriage, of course, but as it wasnât her family involved, she wasnât particularly invested in it all. one personâs misery was anotherâs excuse to enjoy herself, after all, and if she had to attend this ball sara was determined to enjoy it. â i think this is quite a lovely party, â she said brightly, as though she could make it so through will alone. â which do you prefer? â she added, nodding to the wine. â the arbor gold, or the dornish red? i can never decide which one, âÂ

 â  if  youâre  looking  for  an  interesting  choice  ,  the  lemon  cakes  are  quite  tasty  tonight.  â  achara  begins  ,  having  taken  up  station  at  the  dessert  table  both  for  her  own  interests  and  it  seemed  to  be  the  safest  spot  from  anyone  asking  her  to  dance.  the  lady  wasnât  in  the  mood  ,  but  that  didnât  seem  to  stop  many.  â  if  they  arenât  your  preference  ,  those  cherry  tarts  are  quite  delicious  as  well.  â

elaborate  displays  ,  finery  ,  and  court  itself  have  never  been  particularly  appealing  to  tobias  .  nor  does  he  feel  inclined  to  pretend  like  heâs  happy  for  the  newly - engaged  couple  .  but  he  made  a  vow  ,  and  the  person  he  made  that  vow  to  is  here  ,  and  so  here  he  stays  .  begrudgingly  .  he  might  enjoy  himself  more  if  he  had  something  to  drink  ,  but  the  tarth  wasnât  one  to  indulge  in  wine  very  often  either  .  and  so  he  stands , sober , at  the  edge  of  the  room  ,  as  the  court  musiciansâ  music  picks  up  again  .  as  a  figure  approaches  ,  he  raises  a  eyebrow  ,  â  if  youâre  looking  for  someone  to  dance  with  ,  i  assure  you  there  are  much  more  competent  dancers  than  me  .  â he states as his eyes trail over to the other . heâs  making  assumptions  ,  certainly  ,  but  canât  think  of  another  reason  to  come  up  to  him  of  all  people  ,  looking  so  displeased  with  the  festivities .
if there is one thing the nobility is known for, itâs putting on a face and pretending all is well when it absolutely is not. while the host of westeros nobility awake to yet another day where they pray to whatever gods they believe in that today is the day they are finally freed, little golden envelopes are delivered are pristine trays to each family. what they hope is a farewell is anything but.
dear lord or lady,
please do house targaryen the honor of joining in this celebration of the union between two great houses of the south.
princess pimchanok targaryen shall marry lord mazhar baratheon and create a lasting alliance between our two esteemed families.
attendance is highly encouraged, and we would very much hate for those who wish to insult the crown to see what may befall them. your safety is our houseâs upmost concern, and we assure you the indoor location shall be heavily guarded and no harm shall befall a single guest as they enjoy the festivities we have to offer.
as always penned, the king leaves very little room for negotiation, attendance required in more words. but does the mad dragon truly think another ball is the best choice ? at least this one is indoors...

 if  the  rose  thought  any  moment  in  her  life  was  a  test  to  the  lessons  her  mother  instilled  in  her  from  youth  ,  she  was  fairly  wrong.  falling  back  into  bed  with  someone  only  for  their  betrothal  to  be  announced  via  letter  from  the  king  had  been  a  very  deep  cut  to  the  tyrellâs  being  ,  she  was  still  struggling  to  pretend  all  was  well.  a  few  stollen  moments  were  hers  to  break  that  mask  she  wore  so  well  ,  and  when  she  finds  herself  in  the  halls  outside  of  the  ballroom  vareena  forces  herself  to  take  slow  breaths.  footsteps  halt  her  escape  ,  and  a  smile  quickly  slips  across  her  painted  lips.  â  it  seems  this  is  a  popular  spot.  â  the  lady  attempts  to  joke.
dressed in a gown of grey silk, the southern-styled dress still bears strong ties to her northern roots, with the colour so close to the exact shade of her house sigil. coupled with a wolfâs head necklace, thereâs no mistaking that sara is a stark, for all her sweet smiles.
aside  from  the  draconidis  ball  ,  it  has  been  some  time  since  lady  serena  has  been  seen  at  a  gathering  in  the  south  .  and  in  spite  of  her  hesitance  to  attend  ,  given  what  happened  last  time  ,  she  is  still  eager  to  be  noticed . where  she  was  once  known  for  her  vibrant  dress  (  frequently  peacock  blue )  ,  ever  since  her marriage  ,  serena has  developed  a  more  â practical â wardrobe  .  yet  for  the  betrothal  ball in particular ,  her  style  of  years  past  seems  to  have  returned  :  she  sports  a  gown  that  is  a  bit  more  muted in color but  no  less  dramatic  ,  with  its  sheer  black  fabric  ,  plunging  neckline  ,  and  golden  sunburst  beadwork  .  her  hair  is  styled  simply and with little accessory , so as to not take too much attention away from the intricate design of her dress . she also pays  homage  to  her  maiden  house  ,  this  time  through  a  golden  ring  in  the  shape  of  a  peacock  .
OSRIC ARRYNăă:ăălord of the vale
the  youngest  lord  of  the  vale  is  dressed  in  a  sky  blue  shirt ,  black  jerkin , and his finest boots .  some  might  say  forgoing a doublet is  a  bit  too  casual  for  an event  such  as  a  betrothal  ball  ,  especially  for  one  celebrating  a  princess  of  the  southern  kingdom  and  the  ruling  lord  of  the  stormlands  .  but  as  someone  who  swears  allegiance  to  the  northern  kingdom  first  and  foremost  , osric has  little  care  for  the actual parties  involved  ,  and  is  more  focused  on  using  the  festivities to  move  his  own  plans  forward  . that , and the combination of a doublet and jerkin is , in his opinion , too much for the southern climate . if he were back in the vale of arryn , perhaps , he would change his mind . his  beard  is  freshly  trimmed  and  meticulous  as  ever  , and he is armed with his disarming smile in place of an actual weapon . Â
TOBIAS TARTHăă: ăăknight lord of evenfall hall
not  at  all  enthused  to  be  present  at  a  ball  celebrating  the  betrothal  of  two  family  friends ,  tobias  is  dressed  in  light armor ,  as  if to  acknowledge  his  status  as  both a nobleman  and a knight  . black  and  silver  in  color, his outfit is  accented  with  the  signature  sapphire  blue  and  dusty  pink  of  house  tarth  .  as  usual  ,  his  hair  is  half-up  ,  half-down  ,  fringe  framing  either  side  of  his  face .  he  is also meant to  be  presentable  , of course , so the placement of his hair is much more deliberate than usual .  there  is  also  the  addition  of  the  top-half  being plaited  and  secured with  ribbon .  his sword  is  not  at  his  hip  this  evening  ,  but  with  tensions  so  high  even  before  the  ball began ,  he  has  prepared by keeping  weapons  hidden  on  his  person , should  the  need  for  being  on  the  attack  or  defensive ever arise  .
