Ended up that he murdered her. But after she instigated him. Odds are he went there to do it, but he was unarmed.
It's fairly ambiguous his initial intentions, but yeah, he murdered that gal.
Speaking of... I'd toss one in her. Brag about it too.

He leaves her alive and she can accuse him of trying to murder him. Would Viserys go to bat for him attempting to murder his noble born betrothed at the risk of pissing off the Arryns (who might not be too happy Aemma Arryn died in childbirth) and thus risk war with the Vale?
Beyond that, the reality is Lady Royce is a quadriplegic in brutally austere conditions. Had Daemon dispatched with her in anyway save for bashing her fookin head in with a rock, killing her could have been merciful.
