It seems there are many from my world to be welcomed aboard after this past jump. If those of Westeros inclined to make their presence known, I would speak with all of you.

[ there's a pause. a direwolf's low whine can be heard, and robb exhales slowly. ]

And I'm sure it is already known, but the lady who called herself Aberdeen is no longer aboard.

[ and feed is cut. ]

I'm not sure.

[He's loose.]

He came to the Wall, he helped us push back the wildlings.

Not sure?

[ YOU HAD ONE JOB TO DO. ]

What was he doing at the wall? Last I heard he was riding against Renly and the Red Keep.

He ran from me.

[HE'S FERAL OKAY.]

He came to marshal the North. He wanted to take the North from the Wall, he needed the Night's Watch. But we do not get involved with Kings.

Then find him!

[ ONE. JOB. ]

I had no idea his numbers were that small.

Ghost is already looking.

[Jon has about 1000 jobs between corralling the wildling and making sure Stannis doesn't go all honor-crazy and also talking to Asha Greyjoy]

You took the North and the Lannisters the south. His bannermen have never numbered highly.

I'll send Grey Wind as well. Between the two of them they should make short work of this.

[ they both need personal assistants. ]

I'd hoped he would see that. I'd hoped he would decide to ally with me because of that.

He feels that the Kingdom is his by rights, and you are....

[There's a pause]

He will not want to ally with you, Robb. He is a hard man.

But surely after I speak with him, there can be some understanding. We've a common enemy, and he doesn't have the men to destory the Lannisters on his own.

Don't meet with him alone.

Why shouldn't I? I'd thought Stannis an honorable enough man.

You don't know him. It is not that he would do anything dishonorable. But he thinks you are an usurper.

And so you fear for my neck.

Do you trust me?

Aye, with my life.

Then let me go with you if you speak to him.

If it would ease your mind, then yes. You will come with me.

Once we find Rickon, how do you propose we explain Alayne?

Finding Rickon is a more daunting task than either of us give him credit for. There's too many places for him to hide on this ship.

[ 8| ]

We've been telling people she is Bran's companion. Hopefully he will pay no more attention to her than that.

He knows who she is. Do you honestly think he will entertain lying like that?

Then best to keep her from his sight. What other option do we have? You know she won't bear being introduced as Alayne.

Tell her to keep Lady close. Shaggydog will remember her.

Robb, we are not meant to be this way. Six wolves but no pack.

We are still a pack. We are more than just names, Jon.

It is not just names.

We aren't so fractured, are we?

Not you, or I.
