"Who knows, you may fall for someone unexpected." She giggles.

Nodding silently with a small smile, she adjusted her cloak to go to the tourney grounds. "I have to get Lorriane", she thought,"I cant deal with this alone.."

Aelinor returned to her room, laying her cloak across the chair. "Hello father..." She said as she had noticed him sitting. She then gazed out her tall window looking at the land, going over the events that she had seen throughout the day.

Her father is sitting down on her bed. "Hello Daughter, I got a letter today I think you might want to read."

Aelinor takes it and opens the letter to read it. She looks at her father, then puts the letter down.
"How am I to respond to this? Is this what you want?"

"A alliance with them would be helpful to us diffidently after the war..." He sighs. "I said you have two years before you would wed with someone I chose, well if you do not find someone I may have to give you away." He says sadly.

She nodded looking at the letter,"What if he found someone else in those two years?" Looking at her father,"and this will help our family and the kingdom?"
Aelinor stood in front of the window again, looking out onto the horizon again,"I will meet with him."

"My sister married my brother as is our tradition..."She looked at her father with sad eyes,"And no I also do not want to be carried over the Narrow Sea, but father... I do not know what you or mother want me to do..."
"I have been to the Tourney grounds, and all I am to these men are trophy to gain and with their victories a way to be recognized by you." Aelinor lowered her head,"I increase my knowledge to fulfill my hope of helping you and now it is as if I have done something wrong."

"I want you to be a woman Aelinor, I want you to do what you want. However this is something that needs to be done so you remain here with us and it keeps you happy."

"So you would snub the Braavosi for my happiness?"Aelinor looked at her father. "But who do I chose, you know these men better than I?"
"Who do you think would appreciate your smart, educated daughter? Truely."

"You are a princess, and a beautiful woman. Any man would want you, here if you must have direction go to the major houses. The Arryns, Lannisters, Starks and even Tullys have people you could marry, perhaps take a trip to them go 'meet' people." He rises to hug his daughter. "And if you do this for me....I will promise to talk to Tarwin...perhaps make you apprentice master of coin. "

Aelinor smiled at her father, she always welcomed his guidance, she then hugged him in return, kissing his cheek,"Thank you father, thank you. I will take you offer."
"Oh and may I take Lorraine as well?"
