Though many moons passed before the Dragon King made it to Highgarden, it felt like no time at all and yet all the time in the world to Percy. He was still in shock, still healing, itching to pick up a sword again to find an outlet for his frustration, his grief. The image of Edmund swallowed by flames kept him up at night, but no more did he want to pick it up again than when the Tyrells were given the seat. Stewards to the Gardeners before the Field of Fire, they had no claim to the post other than keeping it warm while their masters were away. It was like conquering a keep and giving it to the first stableboy you saw - it was insulting. His Lord Father and Lady Mother were horrified and offended, but they were perhaps more politically aligned, discussing whether they should attempt to play both sides and curry favor - the Field made them cautious to speak too brazenly about their distaste - but Perceon refused to hear it, to even consider one of them bowing before the Tyrells, or even to speak of marrying with them in the future. Beyond blind loyalty to their Kings, Edmund was his friend. And this would not stand.
