-------------------------------

Unfortunately for her, Edward refused her request since Edward would never let his son, Raymont, got played by this woman and her granddaughter. But Edward could afford to let Axel do that.

Edward knew that Axel would be a good match for those Tyrell since he did not care about the throne and did not put that thing in his eyes. Axel had a strong-well and calm personality making it difficult for those Tyrells to manipulate him.

Edward did not doubt Raymont's ability, but he did not want a wife by his son's side that would talk nonsense in his ears day and night. Even Raymont could make the wrong decision because of this fact. But Axel was a general material, making it difficult for those Tyrells to affect his decision.

"Why is that?" Asked Margaery since she was still naive compared to the queen of thorns beside her. Edward really liked this girl and would have chosen her to become the next queen if it was not for her obsession to become the queen.

"Oh, my dear. You will go to Storm's Eye soon, and you have to use your head a little better. Don't think your future father by law is an easy man who would let you do what you want in his lands. He is a violent beast that restrained himself in order to let everyone live. If he decided, millions would die, just like that." Said Olenna as she looked at her granddaughter with a grim expression. If Edward did not force her hand and she did not want to secure House Tyrell's position, she would have never agreed to waste her favorite granddaughter like that.

"What is wrong with the Stormking, grandmother? I actually like him." Said Margaery with a smile. Actually, she thought that it was better for her to marry Edward himself to become the queen. Although prince Axel was a daring and powerful man, who was said he would defeat his father soon, she admired Edward from inside.

Margaery had fantasized more than one time to marry Edward rather than Axel. By doing that, she would have everything, the power, the man, and the vast kingdom. Although she had heard what he did to her family before she came to this world, the girl did not hate him, but she liked him more for making those decisive decisions.

"Oh, god dear. Stop taking that man lightly. Do you think it is easy to control all these lands? No one had ever done that in this world, not even the old Valyria. Ane Valyria had dragons by their side, so you could imagine how difficult this thing is. That man's head had many schemes that could destroy the world. Although I want to associate with him, I am more afraid that our family would die because of my decision." Said Olenna as she shook her head and decided to stop this matter at this point. Yeah, she wished she could marry any of her daughters to Edward himself if that was possible, but they could only dream of manipulating him for even a second.

Olenna went on with Axel as her granddaughter's husband because on one reason. She thought it would be much easier for her granddaughter to manipulate Edward's children after Edward left the world. She even thought of getting rid of Edward's eldest son, Raymont, so that her granddaughter could become the queen directly, but that guy was more vicious than Edward.

Raymont came himself to Highgarden to threaten her, and she felt his father's spirit in that guy's words making her more afraid for her life. He warned her that he would have his eyes on her every slightest movement, and if she made the slightest mistake, he would not care if Margaery was his sister by law and would kill every Tyrell.

After that time, Olenna's face went pale for months as she was afraid of everyone in that family. They were all monsters that she could not tame and would lose her life if she made the wrong move.

"You have to forget about becoming a queen if you wanted to keep your head. Prince Axel and his brother are close to each other, and you would have enough power in the future. Don't act recklessly." Said Olenna warning her granddaughter, who got lost in her fantasies about marrying Edward and controlling everything.

"As you say, grandmother." Said Margaery with a smile, although she had different plans in her mind. She did not want to upset her grandmother by saying anything more, so she chose to go with it for the moment.

Olenna could finally sigh in relief after hearing her granddaughter's words and could thank any god in this world for giving her this obedient granddaughter that was much different from the rest of her stupid family. Her son and grandson were idiots, and if she left the house for those two, she was sure that the house would see its end soon.

'Just look at the Lannister. Although Tywin has a head on his shoulders, he lacks good children and grandchildren. His daughter and grandson blew everything he was building up without leaving a trace for his hard work. What a pity!!!' Thought Olenna as she looked at the sky, thinking about the problem that Tywin had.

It did not take long before chaos and war covered Westeros. The life of the Smallfolks became like hell on earth, and everything went wrong because of that. A war in The North, followed by a war in The South. Even the water and seas had their shares of this war since Edward's fleet surrounded Lanisport and started attacking any ship coming in and out.

A little fat north,

After what Edward did to the Greyjoy back then, they did everything they could to restore part of their power that had frightened the other kingdom for centuries.

They used all the gold they could collect on the island to hire pirates from everywhere in the world. Not only did they do such a thing that horrified everyone in the realm, but they also made those pirates form houses on the islands to restore part of the islands' power.

Although their rebellion against Robert and the Lannister followed by Edward's war against them exhausted their manpower and resources, those sneaky bastards managed to form a new fleet that could threaten the North and the Lannister in a situation like that.

And, of course, the crazed Balon Greyjoy would not let this chance slip from his hands. Although he wanted to attack Edward's kingdom since he had a deep grudge against them, the other houses interfered, stopping his madness, especially those newly formed houses.
