Annara sighed a little and glanced around, wondering if she was wasting her time with this particular group. Clearly they did not value the honour and chivalry of the south as they ought.

Ser Benfry smiled, "Well then you will just have to have more sons. We up at the Wall have claimed all the second sons of the Kingdom. Even the reavers."

"One is quite enough to ruin my plans." Jen said with a chuckle. "No more are needed."

Annara sighed a little and glanced around, wondering if she was wasting her time with this particular group. Clearly they did not value the honour and chivalry of the south as they ought. Gerion finally overcame his, for him rare, nervousness and went up to her. "And to whom do I have the pleasure of addressing? I'd say we'd met, but I would never forget someone so ravishingly beautiful as you" he smiled broadly, unaware of his wife still at his side.

"One is quite enough to ruin my plans." Jen said with a chuckle. "No more are needed." "Plans?" Ser Benfry asked, "What evil did your son stop you from committing? It was naughty wasn't it?" He smiled, and sipped from his wine.

"Is there any other type of plan?" Jen asked with a lazy smile. "Or is that frowned upon up there."

"Many things are frowned upon at the Wall, but it casts a long shadow. You can usually find a lonely place for most things." Ser Benfry replied, "Not me of course. I am a man of the utmost virtues."
The other brothers around the table laughed at his words.

She was always pleased by compliments, even if she decided not to trust the giver. It was always good for her husband to see that other men desired her, though she'd not intention of doing anything about it, other than making him court her a little. Even a married woman liked attention. "My name, my lord, is Lady Hightower. Perhaps you might do me the honour of favouring me with your own name? It is only fair, after all."

Gerion blinked, frankly amazed that there was anyone in the realm who didn't know who he was. But he then recovered with a jovial laugh (all the while wishing he could wipe that smug smile off her face and imagining what lay beneath that gown) and replied "Why, I'm Lord Gerion Lannister of Casterly Rock, my Lady Hightower. I would have thought you might be able to see the Rock from your mighty tower" he chuckled in an attempt to set her at her ease.

Annara sipped at her wine, looking at Gerion over the rim as she did so.
"Oh, my lord, I fear your Rock is not quite as big as that. From the top of the Hightower, even Casterly Rock must strike a woman as a trifle small. Fortunately, though, the name Lannister is known to me. You lions are famed for your pride, truly. I have long wished to know if your fame is justified."
When a woman she could only imagine might be the Lannister's wife joined them, she smiled ever so sweetly and remarked "Oh, my husband is a big boy. He can look after himself. He does not require me to safeguard his honour."

The other brothers around the table laughed at his words. "I believe you." Jen said, with a poker face, then she smiled, "It would be more convincing if not for them."

Gerion hide a scowl at his wife's constant interruptions. It was just like the ugly bitch to always try to ruin his sport. He chuckled though and carried on regardless. "Oh Casterly Rock is rightly famed for it's size and strength my lady and I would be delighted to show you around it some evening. It's at it's most striking in the moonlight. There's even a tower there as well, which my wife has seen many times. It might not be as famous as your own, but I think you'd find it formidable none the less" he smiled.

Ser Benfry, "My brothers know many things, but they have few ways to measure my true worth. To them I am just an amusing tongue that supplies them with wine. They take my ribald humor for actions when it is only words."

"And is it truly just words?" She asked sitting forward a little. "Or are you just giving yourself a coating of good that covers a very dark heart."
