[RIVERRUN YARDS, LATER]
[Rain pours down as n bring out the bound RICKARD KARSTARK. ROBB approaches.]
"The blood of the First n Flows through my veins as much as yours, boy. I fought the Mad King for your father. I fought Joffrey For you. We are kin- Stark and Karstark."
"That didn't stop you from betraying . And it won't save you now."
"I don't want it to save . I want it to haunt you to the end of your days."
"Kneel, my lord."
[RICKARD KARSTARK willingly leans over the table before ROBB, who holds a great sword]
"Rickard Karstark, Lord of Karhold, here in sight of gods and n, I sentence you to die. Would you speak a final word?"
"Kill and be cursed. You are no king of mine."
[ROBB beheads RICKARD KARSTARK with a single great blow. He walks away, conflicted and frustrated.]
"Ironic how Robb ends up doing the sa thing Joffrey did" Shireen said, a tad too loud at that since Robb turned to her with a glare.
But Renly's laugh had diverted his attention.
"My niece is not wrong and you can't say otherwise. Both of you were advised to stay your hands and show respite to your prisoners, and you both did the dumb thing and killed them. One resulted in a full-blown war and another resulted in a major portion of their armies possibly leaving. You have no room to argue it."
Catelyn watched her eldest look away scowling angrily, hands gripping his knees as he tried to control himself.
She swallows thickly but says nothing. There was nothing to say.
[DRAGONSTONE]
[QUEEN SELYSE BARATHEON prays with palms open to a fire in a roughly hewn room.]
"Lord, cast your light upon . Protect in the darkness. Burn away my sins. Help serve you. Use as you will. For the night is dark and full of terrors."
"So the madness has inflicted both of you," Robert said with displeasure.
Sothing told Stannis that perhaps the madness had touched Selys before him. But he wasn't one to make such accusations without proof.
[The door opens and KING STANNIS BARATHEON enters. He stands at the threshold, silently. SELYSE nods in greeting.]
"I ant to co sooner. The battle-"
"I know of your troubles, My king. The Lady lisandre has told everything. You mustn't despair. Your claim is true. You will be victorious. You are the one god's champion and the finest man I've ever known."
Stannis flinched. He certainly did not feel like one right now.
"Selyse. I've broken a sacred vow. I've sinned. I've wronged you. I have shad you."
"You're doing god's work."
"You don't understand. The Red Woman- the Lady lisandre-"
"I know, Stannis. The Lady lisandre has told everything. No act done in service of the Lord of Light can ever be a sin. When she told , I wept with joy."
"Wept with joy, gods these two heretics were made for each other" Renly muttered in disgust. His brother was still sowhat level-headed, but his good sister was far too gone. Selys had always been a little loose in the head.
[SELYSE walks past STANNIS toward three specin jars. Each contains a stillborn baby in a cloudy, green liquid.]
"Good gods! She kept those?" Joanna asked in shock.
"It is her greatest regret that the sons we had did not live long" Stannis muttered.
"And yours, I'm assuming" Joanna replied.
"The children did not make it, there is no reason to dwell on it" Stannis shrugged.
"It bothers him," Joanna said to herself. She could tell that it bothered him that his sons did not make it far into life.
"I thank god every day for bringing lisandre to us. She gave you a son. I gave you - nothing."
Shireen flinched,
"That's not true."
"So you've co to see her as well? There is no need. You must keep away from such distractions."
"She's my daughter. I want to see her."
The girl smiled slightly, blinking in slight shock when her father patted her gently on the head. Her father had always been kind to her. Her mother...
[INSIDE SHIREEN'S CHAMBERS]
[SHIREEN lies below a shuttered window singing. Sounds of seabird and crashing surf waft through the room.]
"That is an... interesting song" Renly muttered.
"Patches, our fool sings it all the ti. It gets stuck in your head after a while" Shireen said with a smile.
[SHIREEN rushes up and hugs STANNIS. He sighs and does not return her embrace.]
"Return the damned hug" Robert grunted. He always found Shireen to be sothing of a small delight. Sowhat pitiful with the Greyscale but otherwise a sweet child.
"It's alright, your Grace. I know my father is not a big hugger" Shireen said with a smile.
Robert smiled back.
[She looks up at him, revealing the greyscale that has consud the left side of her face. She pulls him to sit on the bed.]
"Mother said you fought in a battle. Did you win?"
"No."
"Did the Onion Knight co back with you?"
"He did. He fought bravely."
"He hasn't co to visit . He said he'd bring back a present from the capital."
"He won't be visiting, child."
"Why not? He's my friend. Look."
[SHIREEN gets up and opens a nearby drawer. She returns with a carved two-masted boat.]
"He made this for . But don't tell Mother I have it. It's a secret. Mother doesn't like the Onion Knight."
"Ser Davos is a traitor. He's rotting in a dungeon cell for his cri. Best forget him."
[SHIREEN looks down, cradling her ship. STANNIS rises and exits.]
"He may very well be the only logical man still loyal to you," Robert said pointedly.
"Aye... always has been" Stannis muttered. "He's always been unashad about giving counsel, whether I wanted to hear it or not."
"And look where it got him" Renly snorted.
"Not this ti" Stannis muttered, gently slamming the side of his fist on his thigh.
Q. Why did Jamie Lannister kill Aerys Targaryen?
A) He saw they were losing and chose to backstab him.
B) To get Justice for the people Aerys Targaryen killed
C) Because his Father ordered him to kill Aerys
D) To save the population of kIngs Landing and the rebellion army.
"D) To save the population of King Landing and the rebellion army" Jai answers first.
He didn't even give the chance for the fourth option to fully appear before he started giving the answer, which surprised Jon Snow.
"Looks like he was waiting for this question?" Jon Snow said
"Do you think he is right?" Daenerys Targaryen asked
"Of course who else but Jai Lannister himself knows the reason why he did it" Jon said but as if to prove his stupidity Robbery Baratheon chose another option.
"A) He saw they were losing and backstabbed him"
Jon Snow shook his said and muttered under his breath "Idiot!"
Both Daenerys and Arya sitting on each side of his snickered as they heard him.
