I ought to confess.

This little planet does unsettle me so and why, I cannot explain.

And yet, I have spent far too many days inside and so -

I do very dearly wish for an escort for a short walk outside.

Mayhaps I shall learn to love it, despite it all, we ought not insist on being unhappy, after all.

[Jeyne doesn't have many choices in the way of gowns. Much to her regret, she will have to wear the one that she arrived in (freshly repaired by the Atroma, to her chagrin). She at least attempted to fix her hair, arranging her curls to their most flattering effect. It was the best she could manage in this instance.

There had been stories about Lady Margaery Tyrell and her beauty. She was near Jeyne's age, but had acquired a reputation for kindness and generosity. It was humbling to meet such a figure on this ship, especially one so high above her in rank and standing.]


Lady Margaery...[her words are enough to make Jeyne blush. Before she can even dip into a curtsy, Margaery's arm links with her own.] I meant 'Margaery'. Gods, it's a bit difficult to forget the formalities.

I heard so many accounts about your beauty. I think that you surpass them.

Westerosi etiquette did not prepare me for this world.

[In so many ways.]

So far they have been wonderfully kind. Everyone has been kind. I haven't had the chance to speak with them overlong or to explore very much. This has been a rather rough adjustment.

How long have you been in this place?

[She blushed, as though she had been brought into a great confidence by a woman that she admired.]

I may transfer ships as well. My husband is on the Blue Fish, as is his family, and I should be with him.

[Once he wakes.]

Are you happy in this place?

We haven't quite reunited yet.

[There's a smile, but a slightly pained one.]

He's asleep and apparently has been in that sleep for near a month now. You may know him. Robb Stark?

[It could be better news. At least Margaery was able to find cheer in this world. That was enough to let Jeyne hope that things would improve with time.]

They haven't been cruel to you, my lady? These Atroma, I mean.

[She doesn't know exactly how to answer that. Is he a king in this realm? He died, did that not end his reign? Yet it seemed wrong to dismiss his claim completely. He would always be her king.]

Has he? He has always been very respectful and kind to ladies, though there are many that have met him here that have said he was "brooding".

I had the chance to meet Sansa not so long ago. I never met her until now. Perhaps you could help me with something?

[Jeyne doesn't doubt that Margaery feels a great deal of cheer about everything. Robb could have been terse and she might have found him charming.

The marked favor that Margaery offers her fills Jeyne with pride. This woman was a true queen, bearing majesty in every move she made. She wasn't simply playing at it, as Jeyne often felt she was.]


I should very much appreciate some advice in how to please Sansa. I had thought of giving her a gift, but I'm not certain what I could offer her. I wish to be her friend.

[Lemon cakes! Gods, the making of them would be difficult as she had thus far shown herself to be a poor cook.]

Her walls are quite high, though I suppose that isn't a surprise. Robb's were the same. [It must be a family trait.] Thank you for your help.
