William sat alone in his room at Dawnrose Keep. He looked at the painting on the wall. He saw hills and a sun and two people riding horses. William was empty. His father had gone almost crazy with sadness over mother. He could barely continue to rule and as Regent it was terrible. Luckily Ser Nathan Beesbury and William's little brother Lord Edmure had came down for the funeral. Nathan ever the smart one had taken over in William's fathers name. Raider looked up at his master and placed his large head into the boys lap. William looked down at the direwolf and he saw that his wolf knew that he hurt. Raider didn't understand why his master hurt but William knew he couldn't help him.
Taking his sword William moved walked down into the yard for some practice. There the young Knight found the bastard Bardan with his leather wrapped Axe. Though only 13 the boys arms were large and he swung the axe with great strength. William walked past him.
"Ser Tyrell do you wish to fight?"
William was about to refuse when he thought it might do some good to know how his father squire fought. "Aye I will."
William picked up one of the lead filled wooden swords and advanced to Bardan. He started with a few simple stabs and slashes. But the younger boys heavy weapon allowed him to avoid most attacks and go on the offense.
Then it all went black. William found himself about to try to beat Bardan to death with the heavy sword. Standing up and slowly steeping back William was horrified. He ran away with Raider following him.

Tallahar was worried as he slowly walked into the stables he knew and many other people knew that William was in here. Trying to hide a fully grown Direwolf was hard. "William?"
"Go away father." William refusal to hear his father talk was backed up by a snarl.
"Boy you listen here." Tallahar advanced to stand over William.
William jumped up and looked into his father's eyes. "Why so you can start crying again over mother."
The blow was quick but it knocked William's face to the side. The wolf snarled but with one look from Tallahar it stopped. Glancing back at his son Tallahar heard the soft noises of him crying. "Why did she have to die Father and little Jeyne too. All she ever wanted was to be a lady. She loved dresses and flowers."
"I know son I know." Tallahar took his son in his arms and held him. Finally the boy stopped crying.
"I'm sorry about hurting your squire. I know he's Bane's son and he was a good friend to you."
"It's alright boy. Also he is no longer my squire."
"Oh?" Thoughts that he had seriously hurt the boy ran through William's brain. "Why?"
"Because he is your squire now. You and he are going to Kings Landing. I so much work to do at Highgarden these days but I want someone at Kings Landing. Plus your a Knight now."
William swelled with the pride with the great task he had been given. "I will make you proud father."
"I know you will William I know."
