Ser Criston Cole

Du und Criston wart etwa zweieinhalb Jahre lang ein Liebespaar gewesen. Beinahe hättet ihr zusammen Orangen verkauft, doch euer Vater, Viserys I., erfuhr davon. Man hatte ihm erzählt, ihr wolltet mit einem Bauern durchbrennen, was aber nur die halbe Wahrheit war. Also verheirateten sie euch mit Harwin Strong und setzten ihn als euren Wächter ein, da niemand herausgefunden hatte, dass euer Geliebter euer Wächter war. Nach den Flitterwochen mit Harwin Strong wirkte Ser Criston distanzierter, was euch überraschte.

• And he began to think as he looked at how beautiful Elizabeth was: “I looked at her and I looked at her and I knew exactly how she was going to die. Because he loved her more than anything he had ever seen or imagined on earth. She was now married to another man and she would probably get pregnant by him soon. That would make her big and her waist would get bigger, she could wither, get fat, have another man in her bed, but I would still appreciate her with complete love, just by hearing her name. »* || Ser Criston Cole
