If our teams and roles hold any influence, it would stand to reason that the most unlikely could be suspects in this deadly game. Chosen not by their inclinations but by the Balfours themselves.
And so we return to the Prince Jacaerys, who seemingly drowned without a struggle, when I know him to love the water. His grandsire is the Lord of the Tides.
[ ignoring the bastardy for now bc he was raised velaryon. ]
Lestat names Parisa a friend and claims that he wound not harm her. He would lay the blame upon a vampire of another world than his own, which hosts Louis, Armand, and Daniel — to my knowledge.
But Daniel himself told me to be wary of him.
[ and his warning supersedes Louis’ assurances, for now. she knows well what it is like to be blinded by love. ]
But there is another matter which bonds us that is not mine to share. On the basis on it, Lestat has promised to enquire after Parisa’s wounds and learn what he can of from his fellows.
[ if anyone could tell whether it’s a set-up on the body, it’s a vampire. whether he’ll be honest about his findings is still to be seen. ]
I do not think it him, in truth, at least in the case of Jacaerys. He was young and like to trust a comely girl more than any man.
My husband’s bloodline has dragon dreams. Visions of what has past and will come. My daughter has seen much before it came to pass.
Baela claims she has seen or heard from Jacaerys somehow, and identified that the hair was blonde, not white or silver. And the form of the killer, lithe.
[ in the lake. she has a name in mind, but does not wish to speak it aloud. ]
She used that power on me once. After the wolfman we wanted to see what else I might be immune to. It was completely overwhelming. I was a doll with no will of my own. And she isn't in control of it, not very well. She almost made me jump out the window on accident.
She could easily make someone walk into the lake, and they would think it was their own idea.
My niece will make the case, for it is her betrothed that was taken, and our family will stand behind her as one.
[ larys once accused her thusly, stating that love for one — son, daughter, father, beloved — would override the needs of many. she said it would not then.
I have not decided myself, but the question must be asked. The accusation, levied.
You need only stand for what you believe to be right and true, Tim. I will accept whatever pain my stance brings me, as I always have, and we are running out of time.

That doesn't rule out too many of the men.
