"I see, and you were unable to stop the assasians? I assume there were more than one, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to overwhelm your defenses, you did have her well defended, did you not?" Randal's tone is darkly sarcastic.

"She was in my keep surronded by hundreds of solders. Of course she was well defended. It was dark arts from across the sea that crept into MY HOME" Spit hurtles from his mouth as he says this.

"Dark arts, you have made the whole of the West look weak, cousin. I pledged to defend the girl, and yet you," He turns to Marten, "sneak off in the dead of night with little guard and end up here, and then she dies."
He looks at both men,
"Neither of you have any idea what this death has done to the West." He sighs, and seems to regain control.
"What do we know of the magi behind it?" He smiles darkly, "I spent some time in the East, and may be able to indentify who did it."

"Nothing. We know nothing." He picks up the book and throws it to Randal, his hand resting on the dagger sticking out of the table. "It looked like that."

"What has this death done to the West?" -Marten speaks suddenly, after listening in silence. It doesn`t seem like he slept recently.
"This was my wife, cousin!"- He looks at Randall grimly. -"Besides, now you can avoid war with Ironborn. You didn`t want that war, right?"

"You made me and the whole of the West look weak, to both the Ironborn and the Court. Harlaw claims to not want war, but I do not know whether to believe him or not."
Randal sighs, making his choice.
"Morax Bolton is dead, and that is sure to set the North against us."

"You executed Morax like this?! This wasn`t how we agreed to proceed!"- Marten clenches his jaw, raising.

"You are here very quickly after her death, Randal. How is that?" Maurin's smile was dark and hungry.

"I have many eyes and ears, cousin. Some of which you no doubt have no idea exist. And as for the death of Morax Bolton, I did what I thought best for both the realm and the West. I was following the orders of the Hand, and it would not be good for you to question them."
ooc: Randal is in a pissy mood, hehe

OOC: I assume not as well.
"Oh, almighty Horas that will give you the Lordship?! I am not even sure he is going to be Hand for long."- Marten grins.

"Hmm...switching sides on us, Marten. Interesting, I will be sure to tell the King that if you ever need anything of him."

"I am merely commenting, cousin. I have my own sources of information. Such jumping to conclusions may be....dangerous." -He speaks icily.
"Did you think that my marriage was good or bad thing for the West, I wonder?"

"It was a nececsarry one for the times. But now, I think it is better off that it is over. This death may well be a blessing in disguise." Randal smiles icily, "Not that I was the one to have her killed, for that, I think it is best we blame Harlaw."

"But you would have killed her......for the good of the Realm and the West, you admit?" -Marten grins again.
