Chapter 137

A week after the "Bleeding Feast" and Gandalf was yet to be buried. The High Septon Father Stewart was amongst those who ate the cake and for that he bled out and died. Three Faith Crones died along with him, and that's why the funeral was put on hold ─ the septas had to select a new High Septon so he may lead the King to the afterlife.

When Aryan was asked if she was okay with waiting for five days so the septas may appoint a new High Septon, she didn't say a thing. Ever since her brother died Aryan grew silent, Olivia was the one running things in the palace and preparing for King and Queen's burial, alongside their son. Maybe if it was just her brother who had died, then Aryan would have remained with her nephew Landan the heir to the throne.
