"I come on behalf of Lord Alyn, who regrets deeply that he has been unable to come himself. We have been charged with returning the ancestral blade of House Corbray, Lady Forlorn to it's place in Heart's Home, my lord. Lord Alyn sends his sincere thanks to you and House Royce for keeping the blade safe and secure for him."

"I am well, Ser Corbray. Take a seat," Roland gestured to the free seats. "There should be enough food for you and your men too".
"Brandon, could you get the sword?" Roland asked. Brandon shrugged and nodded, "Sure thing cousin. Come on Howland, we shall retrieve the sword from the monsters in the dungeon". Howland giggled, "Don't be silly". Together they left the small hall to retrieve the sword.

"Yes, my lord," Ser Hellman says as he indicates to his men to go sit below amongst the other guardsmen to eat.
