For the past few days, I heard some weird noises from Tyrion 's room. After peeking into found that he is reading Bible.
"The Maid brought him forth a girl....eyes like deep blue pools....declared that he would have her for his bride....de her fertile, and the Crone foretold that she would bear the king four-and-forty mighty sons. The Warrior gave strength to their arms, whilst the Smith wrought for each a suit of iron plates." Tyrion finished as I stare at him from behind in the doorway, I had went to investigated the noise I heard from Tyrion's room when I was walking past and found him reading a passage out of the Seven-Pointed Star, the Faith's equivalent of the bible.
"I didn't take you for a pious person Tyrion." I announce, making Tyrion jump a little as he rushes to hide his book, "Why are you reading the Seven-Pointed Star? Septon Ormell had us memorise it as soon as we could read". Tyrion still had is back to with his head down "Because I want to become the High Septon."
I blink, caught off guard from his admission, "Why?" I ask confused as to why he would want to swear off the enjoyable things in life and become a Septon. I don't think I remember him mentioning that he wanted to become High Septon in the books or show.
"What else can I do?" he moped "I can't fight, can't travel as father won't let me, can't become a Maester because the Citadel won't except a dwarf and I can't become Lord of Casterly Rock nor any other place."
I frown, even more confused by what he said "What do you mean by that? I'm sure that any Lord would be grateful to have someone with a brain like yours as a good-son." I say as I kneel down next him, both at a similar height as he sits on a chair.
Tyrion just shakes his head as a few tears fall down his face, "No, no they wont. Father tried to offer to me to both House Royce and Hightower and they both refused, insulted as they were offered a half-man for good-son. He even tried to offer me as a husband to Delena Florent," My face goes blank whilst trying to remember who that is "The one the king deflowered on his brothers wedding bed." Tyrion supplied with a small smile, amused that I couldn't remember. "Besides, if I become High Septon I'll become taller as it's said that the crystal crown adds a foot to ones height." We both chuckle at that.
We both sit in a silence that is unfamiliar with the both of us in a room together, "Well fuck them." I say as Tyrion's eyes turn towards me, "Fuck the Citadel, it's their loss anyway and fuck all those women who are too blind to see you, they don't know that they are missing out on the most kindest person I have ever met. Stay here with me, I'm going to need someone I can rely on when I become lord of the Rock and I couldn't think of anyone else I would want than you." I tell him as tears are free falling down both of our faces.
"If you really want to become High Septon then I wont stop you but I don't think you need a crystal crown to make you any taller, someone once told me that 'ofttimes a very small man can cast a very large shadow'. I don't want you to swear off things that you haven't even experienced yet." I stop and stare at him "Actually I got an idea, come with me." I stand up and head for the door, turning around to see Tyrion looking at me as if I'm an idiot.
"Where are we going?" He asks, I just reply with a grin "To have some fun."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Where are we going?" Tyrion asked behind me, huffing and puffing that denotes his exhaustion from descending the ever-lasting flight of stairs we had just walked down.
"Lannisport" I reply, "Don't ask why, it's a surprise." The torch I was holding displaying light around the dark corridor we were both in. Silence pertained for a while as we kept on walking.
"What is this place? I know that there are many different rooms within the Rock but I've never heard of one like this." He says as he looks around at the worn brick walls and the thick collection of cobwebs just above my head.
