Gossip

The old hag whispers to any that would pass by, “Oi – come ‘ere! I got some juicy gossips for ye!”

Oi! Did yah hear about the new exotic liquors being served at the Rose and Crown? I ‘eard many a royal and noble folk were spillin’ all about. Word has it dat King Euron, Lord Mace, and Lady Naveen were all on the floor under the table like dogs! Dah King even had tah be carried off by his guards!

And whilst dah King be out a spendin’ dah crown’s gold on booze, dah new queen be a redecoratin’ somethin’ fierce in dah castle, castle staff done told me. And with dah King goin’ on travels soon, it gonna be a wonder if he a return tah any gold at all wit how she spends it.

Course not all dah royals be out a socializin’. Dat Princess Nessa barely been out dah castle. A few castle servants been a talkin’ dat dah Dornish Prince, brother to dah queen, been lingerin’ round after the weddin’ and stalkin’ dah princess. Day say dah princess been hidin’ and sleepin’ in her office to avoid him!

So House Florent is officially back, announced by the new King himself at court! Right after issuin’ a warrant for another Tyrell. Dat Lady Alessia been given dah Florent name back and I ‘eard was already sendin’ ravens to her last survivin’ relatives in hidin’. Can’t imagine dah late King’s family be too keen on dat proclamation! What’s left of em dat is.

So seemin’ dat baker James apparently meant what he said ’bout leaving High Garden. Guess a few sweet tooths will be looking to get satisfied elsewheres. No one seems to know where he went either. I hope he did just leave and nothing happened to him. The farmer also hasn’t been seen of late. Some noble making a play to own everything by gettin’ rid of the smallfolk shop owners?

Oi! Dare already be new noble owners of the Oil Shop. Dem Costaynes dun acquired it and are sellin’ all sorts of oils I ‘eard. I wonder how much of their riches it took tah bribe dah Mistress of Trade for dat shop…

And den dare be Lady Fossoway been a missin’ too. Course, I ‘eard it cause she been spendin’ all her time in bed with her betrothed whilst her man servant, Ragnar, does all dah hard work for her. I hope she be a payin’ him well or her fine silverware probably gonna be a missin’ soon too!

Oi! Speakin’ of betrothals, it rumored dat Lord Hunt dun finally proposed to dah Lady Ashford. He also ‘eard askin’ for da King’s Justice position in court. Guessin’ he’s gettin’ on in years and finally decided tah sort himself out.

“I guess that’s all fer today, dearie, back to marketin’. Shoo! Shoo now! A woman’s work is never done!”
