The Nursery at the Keep

[Deleted]

Rhae looked startled. "I'm sorry," she said in a small voice. She had had enough of these loud boys.

[Lord Rhodri Arryn]

Yohn looks a little rattled and his hands are shaking. His hand snakes out and holds Rhae's. "No, don't be. Never be sorry. You are right."

[Deleted]

Rhae still looked timid and wary. She stared at him. "I'm...right?" she repeated carefully.

[Lord Rhodri Arryn]

"You're right. I dress in filthy rags. I have twigs in my hair. The only thing is, I don't care. You are right, but this is me. Leather and bronze are better than silk and steel."

[Deleted]

Rhae then showed commendable tact. "If they make you happy, then leather and bronze are better than silk and steel." She nodded, and tried a smile.

[Lord Rhodri Arryn]

"With your approval, then, I will continue," Yohn says, now standing. "I must go. Petra, you can find me in the Godswood."

[Deleted]

"Bye, Yohn," Rhae smiled brightly. She eyed the honeycake on Petra's plate. "Petra, you can go with him."

Rhae gazed up at the crib, tugging her golden curls and singing to herself quietly.

Warden Tallahar walks into the Nursery still wearing armor and sword that he only minutes ago asked for Forgiveness on. Standing over three small cots with his three latest children.

A maid walks in and is surprised to find such a man silently standing over a cot, "Ca..n I helllp you ... M'lord" She quickly adds in.

"AH yes." Tallahar says looking up from his Triplets, "I was just wondering if you knew where my wife was I thought she might be with the children."

"Ah no M'lord she went back to her chambers with your two eldest boys, There was a fight here M'lord." The maid says in a low scared voice.

"A Fight, Who with." Stepping close to the Maid Tallahar looks very scary.

"Your Son M'lord against a Payne boy the guards had to take them away.

Tallahar lets out a booming laughter, "Well William is like his Father, I must go find them." Tallahar quickly leaves the room before turning back and looking at the maid, "Thank you for this information." Tossing her a few silver stags.

Urri, still with a fresh shiner on one eye, remains confined to the Nursery after his fighting yesterday. He sighs, winces at the dull throb in his left arm, and absently scratches at it whilst he trys to work out a twisted wooden stick puzzle he has been given.

[Deleted]

Rhae came up from the godswood, happy with her castle. "Hello again Urri!" she said, bright as a bird.

[lordbalorgreyjoy]

Urri glanced up "Oh, er, Hello Rhae. Do you know how to do this?" he says holding up the puzzle with his good arm.

[Deleted]

Rhae came over. She had a silver-grey kitten in her arms.

"Is that a game?" Rhae asked, bending over the wooden sticks. She deposited the kitten in Urri's lap and then began fiddling with the sticks.

"Do you feel all right?" she asked, looking up.

[lordbalorgreyjoy]

Urri squirmed with the kitten on his lap. He wasn't quite sure what to do with it. He settled for ignoring it as it dug it's claws into his legs and began purring.

"Yeah, I guess so. My arm's awful itchy. The healer says that's a good sign as it's getting better but I just wish it would stop itching!!"
He played with a loose tooth with his tongue as he watched Rhae mess about with the puzzle.

[Deleted]

"This is dumb," Rhae said in frustration. "I can't get them all lined up!"

"And you should scratch it when it itches," she added, nodding knowledgeably.

The kitten rolled onto its back, inviting Urri to scratch its belly. It meowed plaintively.
