Of course. I am not surprised that is the lesson imparted, given your mother's thoughts on bastards.( he's known it as long as he could remember; before he knew what it truly meant, the condemnation that it was. )
To aim to please our parents in all matters is a folly. Your heart has made a choice, has it not? You are a man grown and it is your right. I cannot claim to know much of Queen Alicent's mind or heart, but her love for you runs fierce and will triumph over any unhappiness over your choices.
Honour and duty demand many things of us. May I ask a question of you? An honest one.
