[northerner]

Are there troubles at the Wall? Wildlings?

[wolfinthesnow]

There are always troubles at the Wall. Wildlings and wights and invasions.

And men like Janos Slynt.

[northerner]

I'll send you men, Jon. After the war is ended, I'll send you as many men as I can.

Tell me of Janos Slynt.

[wolfinthesnow]

I will take all the men you send me, even the rapists and thieves. The cold beats the fight out of them.

[But he knows you can't, you won't. It's not your fault, Robb.]

He was the commander of the City's Watch in King's Landing, and Lord of Harrenhall. He is as much a frog as any frog I've met, but more dangerous. He was a candidate when Lord Commander Mormont died, but the men chose me in his stead.

He accused me of breaking my oath, and tried to have me killed for it.

[northerner]

Then you can have them all. And we must hope whoever takes the Iron Throne in the South sends you the contents of their dungeons as well.

[ all the best intentions come to naught, that's the moral of robb stark's story. ]

Does he live still?

[wolfinthesnow]

No.

He rejected a post and disregarded my orders twice, and so I executed him.

[northerner]

Did you swing the sword, Jon?

[wolfinthesnow]

Of course I did.

[Everything that Ned taught them stuck well.]

[northerner]

[ robb's quiet for a long moment. ]

Did you know I have father's sword?

[wolfinthesnow]

[Pause]

How?

[northerner]

It appeared in my locker, after one of the jumps. I have kept it hidden in my rooms.

[wolfinthesnow]

Why hidden?

[Jon would wear that sword, if he could, if it was his to wear.]

[northerner]

When it appeared to me, I...

[ there's a pause, robb struggling with the words. ]

I swore to Miles Edgeworth I would not take Cersei Lannister's head. Father's sword appeared after like a reminder to do my duty. I could not bear it.

[wolfinthesnow]

Ser Edgeworth had no right to take that oath from you!

[Oh wow there's a little temper there]

[northerner]

Aye, he did not. But I gave it to him, and I cannot break it.

You know this place would not have seen me swing the sword for her without locking me away for it, and leaving our family to Jaime Lannister's mercies.

[wolfinthesnow]

What do they understand of any kind of justice here?

[But he settles]

It would have been a favor to us all.

[northerner]

Their own kind. It makes no sense to me, but to fight it would bring about a great war and little benefit.

She's gone now. We need not worry unless she appear again.

[wolfinthesnow]

And the dragon?

[northerner]

It's the early days. She may seek quarrel, for father's role in the Mad King's downfall. But I think not. I hope not.

[wolfinthesnow]

She is more likely to seek quarrel on the matter of the heavy weight on your brow.

[northerner]

Aye, maybe so. But I'll not yield and we can do no battle, so perhaps she will see the sense in letting it lie until we have both returned to Westeros.

[wolfinthesnow]

Aye.

Bran likes her.

[northerner]

I noticed. She seemed fond of him in return.

[wolfinthesnow]

But I do not think they should be alone together.

[northerner]

Do you think she would do him harm?
