A raven arrives for Lord Bracken, saying that if he wishes to be Commander of the Night's Watch, he must come to Castle Black.

The ship, carrying the former Lord Morrigen, came into the harbour of Eastwatch-by-the-Sea. Alester stood at the bow, his wollen cloak wrapped around his aging body, with a smile on his face. The smile had nothing to do with him finally arriving, but the thought of his older son, now being the Lord he never wanted to be. Hopefully he would rise to the occassion, but that didn't trouble Alester, he was after all his son. A quick thought went out to his younger son, Gideon, but he was to become a maester, so they soon wouldn't share name anymore. He disambarked and went to over to the Night's Watch men waiting for him.

A man dressed in the Blacks of a brother walked up, "So your one of the new ones. By arriving on your own boat and by the quality of your wears your not some Rapist who get punished with the Wall are yaa."

He smiled at the man, a smile that didn't tell if it was friendly or threatening.
"No, I am the former Lord of Crow's Nest. My name is Alester"
This would be the last time he would mention being a former lord. He had left this behind him. He would live the last years of his live as a Night's Watch man. When he had sworn the oath he would be fine, all would be good again.
"May I ask who you are?"

"Well me name is Gorben Templeton but most of this lot call me the 'Evil Star'. Guess you'll be wanting to go to Castle Black."

He nodded and offered his hand.
"Yes, how soon can we leave? By the way how did you come by that name?"
He didn't really care, but he wanted to make those around him like him, as that would make this whole thing easier, than having to watch his back all the time. Some men hated lords, and he wanted to show that he was trying to leave that life behind him in his older days.

"Ah my Lordling you don't know want to know. Well it depends my friend. How fast do you wish to get to Castle Black as we can wait for Horses or Walk."

He laughed, this was the sort of men he wanted around him, not afraid of saying what they wanted. That was something he didn't miss about being a lord, all those sucking up to you.
"I'm a Lordling no more, soon I'll be a brother just like you. Horses would be fine for now. I think I'll skip that walk, I'll do a lot of that when I'm at the Wall"

"That you will unless you come back here then you'll do a but of sailing if your lucky." Gorben hawked and spat, "I must say though even when you lose those fine clothes of yours and become a Brother there is one big difference." As the Former lord looked at Gorben he smiled a gap toothed smile at him, "You don't smell."

He laughed again and clapped the brother's back.
"I think we'll get along just fine, Gorben. So is there anyway we can go and warm ourselves and maybe even get something to drink"

Now Gorben laughs, "You want to eat something from the cooks at Eastwatch. Your a bravery Lord then I knew. Well follow me O Lord."
Gorben walked off to a large hall where much noise was ecohing from.

Alester laughs and follows the brother, as the ship leaves the harbor and heads back south.
"So what would you recommend" He grinned

"Recommend this isn't some fancy Inn." Gorben graps a bowl and a heel of bread. As he walks past a cook with a large Pewter cauldron he gaets a spoonful of some sort of stew. "Thats what you get all the time."
Gorben walks away and takes a seat.

He took a bowl, as Gorben before him, and put some stew in it. He looked and smelled at it, which made him wrinkle his nose. He also took some bread and then headed to where Gorben had seated himself.
"So tell me, how's the Night's Watch doing these days?"
He remembered Wull and the problem that had brought, but since then he hadn't heard much of the Watch.

"Fuck if I know. I do my duty thats all I care about. Your a Lordling so the Lord Commander will want to speak to you." Gorben begins to eat the stew not show disgust like Alester.
