Twenty thousand men, is it?
Yes, Your Grace. A few died in transit...
They cheated at dice! Or maybe I cheated? Somebody cheated. [shrugs] They weren't good fighters. You won't miss them.
[rolls her eyes] Horses?
Two thousand.
And elephants?
Erm...no elephants, Your Grace.
[Cersei seethes quietly for a moment.]
That's disappointing. I was told the Golden Company had elephants.
They are excellent beasts, Your Grace. But not well-suited to long sea voyages.
In any event, you are most welcome here at King's Landing, Captain Strickland.
We look forward to fighting on your behalf, Your Grace. [bows and takes his leave]
Am I most welcome here?
You are a true friend of the Crown. And an honored guest.
Good. So, as a true friend and an honored guest...
[He takes a step forward. Ser Gregor Clegane moves to bar his way.]
I was hoping we could talk in private.
After the War. That was our agreement.
[impatiently] Wars sometimes last years.
[firmly] You want a whore, buy one. You want a Queen, earn her. [she rises and makes to leave]
How? I've given her justice. An army. And the Iron Fleet. And yet, she gives me no sign of affection. My heart is nearly broken.
You're insolent. I've executed men for less.
They were lesser men.
[Cersei moves to the door, then stops and sighs. She turns to Euron with a resigned look. Grinning lustily, Euron joins her.]
