As Beesbury's warm blood still pooled across the table, the "Green council" was formed of the remaining six members, plus Queen Alicent as an advisor. Aegon II's Small Council were his own immediate advisors at court, not necessarily all of the major leaders of "the Greens" during the civil war, i.e. Borros Baratheon wasn't a member of the council but continued to rule at Storm's End while contributing House Baratheon's armies to the war.
