If you do you are not listening to me any more than you say I listen to you. I am obligated to Margaery, Ignis. I do not expect you to understand, and I seek no one's approval nor permission save the only two here who have any right to gainsay me.

I did no more than I have always done in the defence of those under my care, and much less, in many ways. If the song bends towards tragedy, then it bends, and those sins are on my hands. But I will not break my own duty for anything less than my king's word.
