Cersei tasks Osney with seducing and bedding Queen [[Margaery Tyrell]], with the pair to be discovered by Osney's brother, Ser Osmund of the Kingsguard.

Under that torture, Osney tells a different story, which implicates Cersei in the death of the previous High Septon and in having sexual relations with Osney.
