"Madam", Dondarrion said, as he stood leaning against a wall in his solar. "Tell me what the late Lady Hogg and Queen Anya Stark have to do with each other?"

"Anya and Lord Hogg were old associates. And Lady Hogg often served as a Lady-in-waiting." she replied.

Dondarrion nodded, "I see, I see". "Tell me, what does this letter mean to you?", he said, showing her the letter, but keeping it a careful distance from her.

Breck looked on curiously, "To prevent her own son from having children? What reason would she have to do this?"

"Is Rickon not her trueborn heir?", Breck asked, tapping a finger against the wall behind him. "And for that matter, what proof do you have of any of this?"

"Is there any other secret to it than what you've told me? Why does she seek to wrest power FROM Rickon? She was always quite fond of them anyway when they were younger."
