House Crakehall of Crakehall is a noble house from the Westerlands. Crakehall is located at the Sea Road, at the south of the Westerlands, between the sea and a big forest. The Crakehalls are known for their uncommon robustness.

Ser Cleon walked into the war chambers of Crakehall. As Lady Plumm was away the Castellan had been very gracious. After nearly tripping over his sword Cleon waits for the Far Reach commanders.

Lord Rodney Blackbar greets Ser Cleon. "Glad to see you made it." The Lord of Bandallon smiled making his mustache contort into an odd shape.

"Ahh yes riding all that way has made my back hurt more then I would like to admit." Cleon pours two goblets of wine taking one up he takes a swallow to only see that he's spilt some down him.

"News from Deep Den is that they repelled the first attack although they took some heavy losses. The Master of Ships ordered 10,000 men to sieze Lannisport so I guess we should march to support that effort?" Blackbar grabs the wine and drinks some as well the red wine beading up on his mustache before he wiped it off.
"When will the rest of the Mander arrive?"

"The Dawn Raiders soon will be here soon with 15,000 more men. I believe we should march to Deep Den. We need to smash that force and once that has happened we can liberty the West."

"A brave plan but the last I heard the enemy turned away 20,000 stormlander preparing to help the cause at Deep Den. We should send word to Dondarrion so that the remnants of his army can muster here. Lord Irwyn had said he wanted to put pressure on the enemy's supply lines so maybe a full march or at least a feint towards Lannisport could divert some men? We still need to buy some time for the rest of Westeros to respond and right now Deep Den is holding 25,000 of their men in place."

"And Deep Den is a battle we must win I believe. All of Westeros need to see that this scum from over the sea can be defeated."
OOC: Just reread my above post. It's William coming to Crakehall. Tall is still waiting for the other 15,000 to be raised at Highgarden.

Robb Tarly had been listening quietly to the older Far Reach man speak with the young Mander heir.
"If Lord Irwyn wants us at Lannisport, we should go to Lannisport. He didn't lead us astray in Dorne."

"Well Lord Alexander is not here. We may have a greater view of things." Ser Cleon was not a total idiot when it came to War. "But I am not saying we can not retake Lannisport. Just that the large amount of our force should go to Deep Den."

"I suppose its very convenient then that Lannisport stands between us and Deep Den then." Tarly said, smiling to try and take some of the sting out of his rebuke.

"Yes it is. But I tell you know boy the whole force will not be stopping to retake then secure Lannisport."

"First of all, don't call me boy. It's Lord Tarly, or Robb if we're being civil." The fierce Tarly attitude came out in him as he glared. "and secondly, SER, the Searoad leads directly to Lannisport. From there its the Gold Road to Deep Den. There is no going around it. It's in the way, so we take the damn thing."

"Thats enough Robb," The Elder Blackbar scolded, "And Ser Cleon please remember your station, we don't need to fight amongst ourselves. Another issue is that the Arbor Fleet has already left Oldtown for Lannisport with 10,000 men so if we marched we could add another 10,000 men to our force. Given our position if we want to march on Deep Den it will be faster to take the road then trying to go over the mountains or over the river. Now Lord Tallahar leaving from Highgarden could make a direct line for Deep Den and if he were to march today we might arrive at the same time."
