[Video] Locked to Seelie

[dyingisnotdead]

[Loras looks like the very last thing he wishes to be doing, right now, is to be talking into the locket.

But he has to do this. He can grieve alone. That is what he has always done. And with the last person who truly knew him gone... it is what he must do.]

Lady Sansa Stark is gone.

We have searched the Cothromach, and found her shard.

[He presses his lips together, and apparently finding some steel in his spine, sits up straighter.]

The fate of the Cothromach in her absence will no doubt be decided by others greater than myself. But as one of her right hands, I assure you that I will do my best to protect those who live and visit here until a decision has been made.

[He believes that is what Sansa would have wanted; but this is not what he has ever trained for. He is a fighter, a knight, not a leader. He isn't Renly, he isn't Margaery. But he'll try, for now, until someone else comes to take her place.]

For those of you who do not know, I am Ser Loras Tyrell, former Lord Commander of the Rainbow Guard and the keeper of one of the white towers.

If any of you need anything, or wish to discuss the loss of Lady Stark, I will be in the Cothromach until further notice.

There is nothing for it.

[He listens, and his tone has a bite to it.]

I know. I plan on trying to gather the shields together within the next days. She worked with myself, with Cullen.

I...I am not sure who else but myself, in truth. Renly was her right hand. I knew due to my friendship and place within Renly's life.

So it falls to me.

I know several of the others. Marchioness Flora, Steve Rogers, Diarmuid, John Grimm. Many of us took the title when Cothromach was first attacked. I have no doubt they will return to help Cothromach in its hour of need. If you will help us, then we can help you, and all will be held together easily enough.

That was before my time. But even if Sansa is not here, now, she needs them. I will do all I can for the place. And..thank you, for helping me, in this.

Of course, Loras. All my resources are at the disposal of Cothromac. You will not be alone in this, I assure you. I will make sure the city's best interests are not forgotten, and all those who might prey on such a moment of weakness are kept at bay.

Of course. I'll make sure that my steward at the tower knows I'll be at Cothromach until further notice, as well.
