"Ten thousand of your children perished in my palm, Your Grace, she thought, slipping a third finger into Myr. Whilst you snored, I would lick your sons off my face and fingers one by one, all those pale sticky princes. You claimed your rights, my lord, but in the darkness I would eat your heirs."

It's a fitting day for rain at Tywin's funeral. It's not a very comforting one for the family, though, as Cersei bats away the grasping mourners and tries to keep the pack—er, lion's pride—together.
