Hodrick smiled, then turned to the guards and gave them a signal. Immediatley several hundred archers and crossbowmen stood up from the grass. He smiled at Ronald. "Just being cautious, allow me to escort you to Callen."

"Caution is the game you play in rebellion." replied Ronald as he dismounted for his horse and following Hodrick.

As they walked towards the center of the camp Hodrick talked to Ronald. "So is Rindwynd with you? Or Tallahar? I'm asuming they're coming."

"My cousins I don't know where they are now they should be traveling south after the battle of the Wall other from that my best guess is that they should be only a week or two away. By the way i didn't catch your name ser."

"Good to meet you Hodrick." Said Ronald with a warm smile "Ah is this the kings tent here."

Hodrick kept walking, "He'll be at the fire still, now that the men have have left he'll like to enjoy the fire for a while." They neared the flames and saw Callen on the back of a tree near the fire. His flute rested on his lap and he stared at the flames. He has that same look he had after he saw the flames in Grandview thought Hodrick with a concerned look on his face.

Ronald knelt before Callen "Your Grace as a member of the house Tyrell I pledge you our full support, and the use of Highgarden as your base until you recover the Iron throne." finish Ronald still on his knees

Callen had been staring at the flames again, they entranced him. Again he saw things, images, people dancing in the fire. He saw a man in black kneeling before a Kraken, an axe wreathed in blood and fire, and a pair of lovers bathed in ash so white as to be snow. When he finally he heard the words of Ronald he came to. He continued sitting, watching Ronald as he talked. He gave a deep smile and got his feet. He grasped Ronald under the arm pit and raised him up. "It is good to have you, but before we leave for Highgarden I must first behead the pretender that soils and mocks my name. Are you with me?"

"We wouldn't have it any other way." Said Ronald with a smile

"Very well, follow me then." Callen lead them to the tent where they found Nealon Spear waiting. The man rairly slept, always sharpening his weapons, or scouring his mail. He was the picture of the perfect warrior, ruthless, cold, and fanatical, but left more to be desired in terms of command. Callen stopped in front of a table with Hodrick and motioned Ronald forward. "We've been trying to figure out where the pretender's striking out from. Too hear the smallfolk tell it he's everywhere, and either rides a dragon or sports wings from his back."

"CALLEN"
Lord Tallahar Tyrell comes bursting into the tent. The Blackshield guard steps forward to Callen."My majesty i am sorry i could not stop him"
"Why would you want to stop me i am friend to the Stag King and would never harm him" Tallahar goes to one knee with a serious tone to his voice "My Majesty House Tyrell betrayed you in the last War i came on behalf of my two Cousins Rindwynd and Gathor we ask for your forgiveness and to look to this new time of strafe in Westeros"
Drawing his sword and holding by the hilt, eying the Blackshield down as he steps forward to protest, "My sword is your sword i swear to see you on the Iron Throne again and only death will stop me this time, Highgarden, Oldtown and my keep Uplands are all at your need say what you will and i will do it MY KING"

Callen registered suprise for moment, and then his smile grew wide. "You're Tallahar Tyrell right? I recognize you from when I married Bethany. And you are most welcome my friend. All is forgiven."

"Thank you My Majesty" Standing in his mail and boiled leather Tallahar looks down on the sitting King. "I preach to thee my king come to Highgarden its walls and stocks of food can feed all your men easily and we can plan how to kill this Aedon"

Callen shook his head, "I'm sorry Tyrell, the Targaryen king is not my concern at this moment," he pointed to a small pile of reports collected by his men, each describing a different attack by the Baratheon pretender, "it is he I have to worry about right now. Then we can deal with...wait did you say Aedon? If I remember correctly (which I do) it was Aemon, not Aedon that sat the Iron Throne."

Hope you all are well and happy.
