Varys adds that Ser Loras reportedly went mad when he found the king dead, and slew three of the Rainbow Guard, including Emmon Cuy and Robar Royce. Varys supposes Loras is heading back for Bitterbridge, with one-fifth of Renly's knights.

Tyrion feels there is an opportunity to try and win them over. He proposes they send an envoy to Bitterbridge, they might be able to secure the Tyrells by offering a marriage between the now widowed Margaery Tyrell and King Joffrey, may win over Ser Loras, his father and the keys to obtaining the huge host. Cersei resists the betrothal proposal at first, but relents.
