She protests that he really should because it is good practice, but says that it is very important, so he must make sure that it is written properly by someone smart. He proceeds to dictate a letter requesting for an audience with the Iron Bank, to ask them to switch their support from the Lannisters to her father. Shireen is regarded as a sweet child, but she is not considered pretty. Shireen will one day sit the She would be ten on her next This is the king's true heir. Shireen Baratheon. Shireen Baratheon is a member of House Baratheon of Dragonstone, and is the daughter and only child of Lord Stannis Baratheon and Lady Selyse Florent.[3] In the television adaptation Game of Thrones, she is portrayed by Kerry Ingram. Selyse runs to her daughter's aid, but is held back by Baratheon soldiers, and crumples to the ground as she watches her daughter die in the flames and Stannis looking away with tears in his eyes.Shireen's sacrifice allows her father's army to press forwards as the blood magic appears to have been successful in melting the snows. ―Stannis Baratheon to Shireen. Shireen brings Davos a book about Following Davos's release, he spends time with Shireen. This would make Shireen the same age as actress Kerry Ingram, so it seems plausible.In some versions, Iphigenia is not actually sacrificed, but is saved by Artemis at the last moment and taken to Taurica. Selyse suggests that Later, Shireen continues her reading lessons with Davos in her chambers, where he joins her after a tense meeting with her father. Certainly, he is as distant from his family as he is from everyone else around him. She implores him to read more of Aegon's exploits rather than sort through Stannis's correspondence, which consists mostly of invitations to attend social events thrown by his few remaining bannermen, including the nameday celebration of one of Shireen's Shireen is lectured by Melisandre on the Lord of Light.Selyse fears for Shireen's soul, saying that she is stubborn, sinful and sullen. As they depart, Shireen tells Davos that she wants to see the crypt of Winterfell where all the old kings of the North are buried, to which Davos replies that they must first take the castle. Daughter of King Stannis Baratheon and Lady Selyse Florent, friend of Patches :) Selyse resents Shireen because she could not give Stannis a healthy son, only a sickly daughter, and dismisses her as stubborn and sinful. When Stannis says that they have no chance of locating Shireen discusses the Targaryen civil war with Stannis.Stannis later visits Shireen and the two discuss the events that unfolded between Later on Shireen is escorted and tied to a pyre where she is sacrificed to the Lord of Light by Melisandre, who does so without remorse. However, the horror of a little girl's sacrifice has led hundreds of Baratheon troops and all his sellswords (about half his army) to desert, while Selyse hangs herself, and Melisandre flees after hearing the news. There are two variants to the disease - the greyscale, and the grey plague. Melisandre reminds Stannis that they may need to sacrifice more King's blood in order to better their chances of winning the upcoming battle in the snow which they both saw in the flames, citing the deaths of Robb Stark and Joffrey as examples. Indeed, once Stannis realized that his wife would bear him no new children and Shireen was his only heir, he sought to ensure that she be properly educated to rule in her own right someday.

On the other hand, Stannis has remarked in the books that should he ever die in the war, he expects his soldiers to keep fighting to put Shireen on the throne. As she burns she pleads for her mother and father to help her.
