Talyn shrugged, "I cannot speak to that. I can say however that you will have your opportunity, since her grace should be here within the next few days. With what Lords have you been in contact with, and what are their present positions?"

Tyberrion smiled, "Tallhart, Cerwyn and Dustin are all moving here. And then hundreds of leaders who are not lords yet."

Talyn nodded, "Has the Cult taken any actions of note. It seems clear they have not given battle. Have they done any poisoning of wells, killing or the like?"

"The North is quiet. And Word from the South seems non-existent." Tyberrion replied, "If Thatcher is planning anything it is subtle."

Talyn nodded, "That was always his way. Her grace will be here shortly, I am sure you will have much to discuss, but I can think of no further questions for the now. With your leave, I'll return to our camp."

Tyberrion leaned forward, "Why don't you stay in the keep. You can dine with us and have a real bed for a change."

Talyn shook his head. "I appreciate the offer, but I couldn't possibly. My place is with my men. In any case, I must report back so that couriers can inform the main army that they shall have a friendly welcome."

"No, I insist." Tyberrion replied, "Just until the Queen gets here. One of my men can inform your couriers. Or Lady Stark can send some men."

Talyn gritted his teeth slightly, "That is all too kind, I suppose I must accept. But please allow me to return and give my men their instructions. I would not be able to sleep, no matter how comfortable the bed, if I knew they were ill-prepared. I will gladly return and spend the evening in dinner and conversation with you." Talyn replied.

Tyberrion looked at Lady Beatrice, "Is that acceptable?"
Lady Stark nodded.
Tyberrion looked back to Thatcher. "See you tonight."

Talyn departed and went back to the Vanguard's camp. There he instructed William Hill to ride to meet with Lord Selwyn, and to explain that Lord Tyberion Lanniser and Lady Beatrice Stark were awaiting the pleasure of her grace, and that other Northern Lords were also on the way. Details regarding the size and make up of the keep's defenses are also noted.

Thatcher was sat at the main table but near the end. The table is full of Westermen, Lannister, the two Stark Girls, and two Stark knights.

Talyn nodded respectfully to the company present.
"Tell me Lord Tyberion, how have you fared since the army went north? I'd heard mixed reports of the situation after we went north of the Wall."

Tyberrion frowned, "I did not spend much time south. I followed after you with my men. I meant to join you before you reach the Wall. Things happened though. We found some Northmen who had gone over the edge. They attacked us, and we defeated them. Not before I lost my leg. We came to Winterfell to heal, and the last of the Starks, and their guardians had been wiped away. I set up here, and waited the Winter out."
