When the Knight of Flowers made his entrance, a murmur ran through the crowd, and he heard Sansa’s fervent whisper, “Oh, he’s so beautiful.” - - -
Sansa clutched at his arm. “Father, don’t let Ser Gregor hurt him,” she said. Ned saw she was wearing the rose that Ser Loras had given her yesterday. Jory had told him about that as well.
From this close, she sees the hardships of his life in the lines marring his face. She sees the weight of the world in his eyes, a look so familiar it tugs hard at the strings of her heart.
It’s the moment the flames do the loveliest dance, igniting the shade of color that she gave for dead. The shade of color that gleamed with pride when her young self would make the right move during their game of cyvasse. The shade of color that was consumed by dread as she last gazed into it, and found herself being carried away, at his orders, from the dragon lair that succumbed to the flames. The shade of color that harbored the loveliest innocence, looking up at her while he sucked at her breast, pulling her from reliving the tragedy yet again.
The dark shade of purple she can only see in her dreams now.
