She'd been caught outside her quarters, still wearing her shift for the bed that was barely rested in when intruders burst in the room. They had not expected the Celtigar to be the sort of woman who one would know how to defend herself to some degree or that she always slept with a knife under her pillow. It was a piece of inherited paranoia, a shard of her father's mind that lived in her that would save her life. Just like here, bodies thudded to the floor of dead and previously hungry beings. Maelys wiped her dagger on her dressing gown and stood for a moment staring at the heir to the arbor breathing deeply. None of the blood she had on her was her own - at least not that she was presently aware of yet. She'd practiced fighting, thrilled in the clashing of swords and the practical application of this and that from her isle but until now she had never killed anyone. Maelys would deal with that later, process what needed to be processed when the dust was settled and her eyes latched on her elder brother. " Fools to have crossed you, to have stormed the keep but we'd be foolish if we stay here. I've gotten turned around. Ran from my room after fighting out of it. I need to find my brother - Daemon "

"  wine  and  gold  ,  "  matthos  murmured  ,  standing  over  the  corpses  of  the  two  men  who  had  dared  to  hold  him  at  sword  point  ,  threatening  his  life  if  he  did  not  lead  them  to  highgarden’s  wine  cellars  .  clearly  ,  these  fools  had  not  anticipated  their  own  demise  ,  nor  expected  the  arbor  heir  to  seize  his  chance  so  swiftly  ,  lifting  his  sword  without  hesitation  .  "  they  came  here  to  get  drunk  ,  apparently  .  i  cannot  decide  if  these  men  were  simply  stupid  ,  or  if  they  had  no  real  plan  in  mind  when  they  chose  to  storm  the  keep  .  "

࣪𓏲ּ ֶָ 𝑤𝑒𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑜𝑠𝒕𝒗 ⁝ florence pugh, 26, cis woman, she + her. announcing the arrival of MAELYS of house CELTIGAR, the LADY of CLAW ISLE. whispers among the court name them to be both INGENIOUS and ENIGMATIC in disposition, and those closest to them speak to their interests in the arts, sciences & swordplay if we bards could compose a song for them, it might tell stories of at least a dilution of ancient ichor and wyvern blood distilled - the last of old valyria runs your veins, a dash of sea salt and poison to flavor - you were raised to have claws, intricate detail scribbled across pages in a plethora of languages - the pursuit of knowledge is your path to your power. the seven whisper to their most devout queen as she sleeps, making her question where their loyalties truly lie. are they right to whisper? for their loyalties truly lie with THE TARGARYENS .

  statistics…

# physical information.

faceclaim:  florence pugh.  ethnicity:  valyrian, andal.  hair:  blonde, near platinum ( color ) mid-thigh length. generally due in part to the length it is in some style of braid or up-do depending on the occasion and the manor in which she must navigate the world. Intricate plating, truly complex styles are for special occasions,  less complex styling will do for day-to-day tasks. It is only fully loose if on wash days. ( styling )  eyes:  valyrian hazel. ( brown/green forward with elusive flecks of violet ).  height:  5’4”.  build:  mesomorphic, fit but curvaceous in the right places.  scent:  sea salt, sandalwood, dark musk, black currant ( mysterious,  sophisticated, sexy ).  dominant  hand:  left.  allergies:  none.  scars:  none of note.  distinguishing  features:  strong jawline, striking, expressive eyes, a huskier voice, stature - she's a short queen she's incredible.  clothing  style:  in general terms Maelys dresses impressively, but it is dependent on the activities planned or what functions are needed to be performed. She prizes functionality over frill but even in this thought everything is a statement. Like the language of flowers, the style of dress communicates something that the more observant person will notice. Color, cut, style - even the fabric is a message that this Celtigar has learned. Her style reflects herself - elegant, sharp and ethereal. Being a cousin to the royal house do you expect anything less than to play the part?

To secure strong political alliances and the power that goes with them ( marrying if necessary but to also find a satisfying, stimulating relationship though because of her ambition its unlikely #the things we do for family ) 2. To see a Celtigar claim a dragon as is their right by blood and the return of old valyria   3. The downfall of the targaryen cousins .  would they choose family or power?  Oh this question - maelys will choose her brother but power over the other pieces of her family - mhmm.
