After being brought back by the knight Baelor swiftly made his way to find Lord Garnet.

The Door was open, and Lord Garnet stood with blood covering his left side, but it was not his own. He was slamming his fist into the table as Baelor entered and stopped to look up.
Mox Hightower was seated his fingers steepled, seeming tired.
The King sat, and rubbed at his red eyes.
Lord Commander Hugh Morrigan leaned against the wall, and cleaned his sword. The white he was wearing was covered in red droplets.

"Lord Garnet?" Baelor asked, stepping into the chamber. He knew all these powerful men should scare him but no, he had just chased a man who had tried to kill the king. His father was wounded. He had to say something.
"I... I have to tell you something."

Garnet studied him and stood slowlym "Baelor... there is something I have to tell you first." He stepped around and began walking toward the young man.

"Wh... what is it?" Baelor asked, wondering if he already knew the answer. "My father... yes, he was hit by arrows."

Garnet walked up, and placed a hand on Baelor's shoulder, "I am sorry son. Lymon is with him now. I rode back as fast as I could with him on my mount with me." It was then that Baelor realized all the blood on Garnet was from his father.

"Oh... I..." Baelor began, staring at the blood. "I will go see him when I have told you what happened!" He said.

"We know what has happened. Go see your father." Garnet squeezed his shoulder and then turned back to the table. "Explain to me again how this was allowed to happen."

"No, I chased one of the men!" Baelor said, his voice insistent. "All the way through the city! I tackled him and he went down but then he punched me! He said his name was Nicholas and that the King and the Lords were crooks who stole his family! He said..." What was it? "He said that people who want the truth should come to the Head."

He had all of their attention now.
Garnet said, "What else?"

"Well... that was it! I can tell you though what he looked like," Baelor said. "He had a small scar in the corner of his mouth! Oh, and he said he was a fletcher. When the knights came he ran off and one of them followed him."

"Well, Ser Trent brought me back... so the other one he was with," Baelor said. "I do not know his name."

"It is not important unless he catches this Fletcher." Garnet said and looked to Mox.
Mox said, "Tell the story from begining to end."
