FWIW I initially just took this in the context of the source material, Game of Thrones.

Cersei Lannister (pictured) comes from a noble house whose sigil is a lion. They use a lot of lion metaphors. One of the quotes from her father Tywin (in the show at least) is “The lion does not concern himself with the opinions of the sheep.”

Cersei as a character, though, is a bit of a hot mess who makes it her business to concern herself with everyone.
