Lady Merryweather tells Cersei that she had attended Margaery's earlier wedding to Renly Baratheon at Highgarden, and she had participated in Renly's disrobing. Cersei suggests that Taena have her son brought to court so he could befriend Tommen, but Lady Merryweather insists that Russell would be more comfortable remaining at Longtable. ĭuring a night of drinking, Taena admits to Cersei that she had a secret lover, a Myrish captain with a scar on his face. Taena allies herself with Cersei, feeding the queen information.
