"Oh pardon me for interupting" Loren said turning towards the two men who were already occupying his liege lord's attention.

Horas shook his head, "I have not yet married. I do not think Skyreach that out of touch Lord Fowler." He smiled politely, "Do not think you are the first Lord to remind me of my duty to marry." Wencel smiled and shrugged "Alas, you see through my transparent inquiry milord. I confess that I too worry that our fragile kingdom cannot suffer the lack of a true succession" He stopped himself from continuing on and said "But I do not mean to bore you further. This is, after all, a party I believe" he raised a wine glass to Horas "To your good health, milord" and took a sip |

"And what is this about Far Reachers not being Horsemen. . .hmmm?" Loren said smiling, "My father was twice runner up in the realms horse race, or so I've heard. And if my lord is lacking a horse there are no finer steeds then Uplands."

"Ah, Lord Irwyn, an honour to meet the son of the Butcher of Sunspear, Conquerer of the Inconquerable Dorne. My father Felryn Harlaw fought in that campaign also."

Justin nodded back respectfully to the Lord of Duskendale.
"Uplands, naturally, is an exception to the rule. Some of our best horsemen, and all our best horses are indeed from there." He said, addressing Lord Loren's retort.

Lord Tagganaro smiled at the Queen, "I think the Red keep would be best. It does your family honor, and there is no venue as majestic in Braavos."

"Ah, Lord Irwyn, an honour to meet the son of the Butcher of Sunspear, Conquerer of the Inconquerable Dorne. My father Felryn Harlaw fought in that campaign also." Loren looked a little taken back by the use of his father's byname he had of course heard stories from Lord Tarly and others about the campaign in Dorne, though his father talked little about its going ons. "Forward from the sea," Loren said, "my father mentioned the ferocity of your Father and had a great deal of respect for the Ironmen and their ships." |

"Brother," Wulf says, grinning at Brynden, "my ship made it in this morning. The winds were against us and I feared we would miss the celebration." The way he says celebration makes it clear he thinks it is anything but.
"How have you been? Are your children well?"

He said, addressing Lord Loren's retort. "I would have said the best in the realm if it was not for the presence of the Lord of Duskendale," Loren said acknowleding the stables that Aranya made famous. |

"I plan on marrying soon, Lord Fowler." Horas replied, "And thank you for the good wishes. I wish the best to your family as well." "Thank you milord. I will see if I can stomach mixing with some of the other guests. If you hear any grinding noises, it will just be my teeth" he jested as he and his family bowed and went to find some seats |

"I am told my father had a rare respect for the men of the Far Reach aswell, in most part due to your father and the old Lord Redwyne." "I was told that my father almost took an Ironborn as his wife, most likely your cousin or your niece although situations did not allow that to come to fruition," Loren said whispering some of the rumors he had heard amongst the camp as a squire, |
