And What a Dance it Was (NO SV, War is Coming, Prepare)

[X]Plan: Let the Wedding Bells ring!
-[X]Rhaenyra Targaryen: The Princess of the Iron Throne, arguably, the most powerful match in the realm for you. You are kin, the bloodline would remain pure, and it would immensely increase your prestige throughout the Realm. It is also a statement of trust from Viserys to you. He trusts you to be a good man and husband to her, as well as help her in the times she needs it.
-[X]Alicent Hightower: The Daughter of the Hand of the King, Otto Hightower. A courtly lady and one of the great beauties of the Realm. That is not all, however. She is brilliantly a courtly lady at heart, knowing her way around the comings and goings of court. As well as… well learning at the feet of her father since before she could walk, and few can match her intellect. Or her hidden ruthlessness.
-[X]Emma Wendwater: Ser Roberts's younger cousin, and as you learned a budding diplomat, being very aware of her choice words and actions. However, there is something that you know will make things different from others. The personal touch. She knows you, not well, but she does. And she enjoys your company.

Personally, I feel that Rhaenyra and Alicent are definite as we can help the Realm's Delight become a true queen like irl Queen Elizabeth I. Alicent's exceptional knowledge of the royal court makes her THE most experienced of the ladies and her potential to become a team player will help Lucien greatly, who can bring the best out of Alicent.

Also, I know the Faith will only tolerate 3 brides for Lucien but consider the options, it may still be too short a number despite the possible issues it could bring up.

[]Lara Lannister: A Lannister of Lanisport, and one of the few women that you honestly feel uncomfortable hearing about. You look at the reports and all you hear is rumor and slander. She was a lady who enjoyed going out on the town, fighting, whoring, and utterly forgetting that she was a lady of a Great House. But that was not without reason. She had been traveling around the West for almost two years with one of her ladies, dueling, fighting in tournaments, and getting wasted on booze and other narcotics. She was just utterly without control… Until her lady friend died, and she returned home. She has not been the same. Her life seemed was gone.

- [] Caliadne Reyne: You have never met any more… strange woman than Lady Reyne. She wished to be a Maester, but she could never become one, so she poured herself into the many scrolls, books and papers. She is a talented writer and above all else, she even has medical training. Though not a surgeon, she is highly skilled. She even has your mothers leave to help when she is cleaned up.

- [X] Lorena Celtigar: Another lady in waiting, from the Calw Isles. She is a blood of Old Valyria, and a great beauty of the ancient and noble lands of the Targaryen's direct vessels on Dragon stone. However, despite her composure, she is a kind woman, known for her smile, when she shows it.
- [X] Minisa Crane: The Dancing lady of the Red Lake, and another lady in waiting. However you say it, she is a wonderful business woman, and one of the best dancers in the Seven Kingdom, even those at court come to her for lessons on how to dance the more traditional dances of the Reach and Stormlands. She is a good lady, and rumor has it, she loves spending time with the cranes, to make her feel closer to her mother and her home.

1.: Moratorium
2.: The Faith is already making a huge concession by allowing us three Wives. Let's not antagonise them now that they have finally gotten their act together again.

Notes: This is for now, my combination scneario

Rhaenyra and Alicent, need I say more?

Emma's diplomacy can work wonders in court

Other than her faith and Valryian blood, Lorena has potential to be a good in commerce and trade.

Minisa would make good businesswoman, something that can help Lucien in the economic ends.

Caliadne's immense knowledge could come in big handy. Also, as a healer, that can keep Lucien or other important allies alive.
 
[] Plan: Three Aces.
-[]Rhaenyra Targaryen: The Princess of the Iron Throne, arguably, the most powerful match in the realm for you. You are kin, the bloodline would remain pure, and it would immensely increase your prestige throughout the Realm. It is also a statement of trust from Viserys to you. He trusts you to be a good man and husband to her, as well as help her in the times she needs it.
-[]Alicent Hightower: The Daughter of the Hand of the King, Otto Hightower. A courtly lady and one of the great beauties of the Realm. That is not all, however. She is brilliantly a courtly lady at heart, knowing her way around the comings and goings of court. As well as… well learning at the feet of her father since before she could walk, and few can match her intellect. Or her hidden ruthlessness.
-[]Laena Valyreon: The Daughter of the Sea Snake. A Dragon rider of Vhaegar. A powerful ally in court. She is known to be a lot of things. Cute, precarious, and adventurous, preferring to fly on her dragon than spend time at court. She also has no fear when it comes to many of problems. She sees her freedom in marriage with those that understood her. And she believed you did.

Ok, Rhaenyra and Alicent are pretty self-explanatory, they complement themselves extremely well, we are friends with both of them, and it helps that they are also deeply in love with us (and being able to prevent de descent of a sweet girl like Alicent into Lady Macbeth is also a boon)

And my third pick is Laena... What can I say I really liked her in the show and having a link with the Valaryons would help us immensely when we have to deal with the Stepstones, and a gives us regular contact with Corlys one of the classiest Magnificent Bastards of Westeros.
