She wants freedom and nothing else.

I must take Aegons head.
And I have to for it for all to see.
Alicent must make a sacrifice.
A son for a son.
She agrees saying she will arrange Rhaenyra to enter the city in three days time.
As for herself, I cast myself on the mercy of a friend who once loved me.
