Hannibal's eyes darkened at her words, but he continued his full control. He did give a silent signal for Margaery to watch herself and for Rhys to move in front of his mother to protect her. He moved and leveled an angry glare at Danaerys. Reina was frowning, but her face showed disappointment more than anger.
Hannibal waited for a few more moments before speaking. He stood tall, but did not raise his voice in the least. "I claim what I have defended and protected for my whole life. The lands of my family." He said before staring deep into her eyes with intensity that made most people very uncomfortable. "It has been proven that you are my great-great-niece. According to the laws, this will only be yours if my line fails. If you attempt a take-over...you will be labeled a usurper and confirm half of the fears the people have of you being as ruthless as your father. Not to mention loosing the north entirely an perhaps only having control of the land south of the remnants of the Twins." He stated simply.
