Lord Oscar Tully: You'll forgive me, Your Grace. I am green in this sort of matter, as you so kindly point out, but it does seem to me that you've made rather a mess here, countenancing barbarities in the Queen's name.
Daemon: Whose side are you on?
Lord Oscar Tully: The Riverlands are held together by oaths. House Tully swore an oath to King Viserys. We recognize the authority of the named heir, Queen Rhaenyra, and your own as her king consort.
Daemon: Good. Then we shall go to face your vassals and you will call your banners to war.
Lord Oscar Tully: That might be difficult, my king.
Daemon: Well, I was told they would come to heel when House Tully declared its allegiance.
Lord Oscar Tully: That may be the case, though it is yet to be seen that they will heed my authority as young as it is. And there is another problem. They all hate you.
Daemon: I don't need their love. I need their swords.
