Euric shivered at the thought. "I don't like saying it but the Straw Man seems like the only person who could do it... him or a Faceless Man, but I hear they are overly expensive."

"The Faceless men still will not work in Westeros. You would have to get Lannister to travel to another land." Isabella replied, "I am sure the Straw Man could kill Lannister, but I think we should aim lower. The Cobbler, the Wainwright, or maybe even the Blacksmith would be better options."

"Hmmm." Euric replied in thought. "Are there any other options? After all, these men are highly professional and could easily just work against us. The Twins maybe?"

"The Twins are not agents, they run an organization. They are not for hire, but work for themselves." Isabella said, "We could approach them for a contract. It is like hiring a man to craft you a sword. He will not do the work himself, he has men to do that. They will have their operatives attempt it." She looked him in the eye, "This might be the best away to attempt this for us at the time. We have the resources to pay for that high a level assassination."

Euric raised an eyebrow. "And how do you know how high our resources are?" He asked, guessing that he was asking a stupid question.

Isabella chuckled and laid a hand on his arm, "I am sorry. That was suppose to be a question. Do we have the resources?"

Euric nodded. "I think so, yes." He sighed again. "It's just so tough struggling with this silent war... on the battlefield I know what to do. I have my sword and my men, but this is so different. Much harder."

Isabella smiled and nodded, "It is. I am sorry this is so difficult." She looked about, "Do you want to stop for now?"

Euric nodded. "I think it might be best. I doubt I will get anymore sleep tonight with all these thoughts in my head but I need to think a few things over."

Isabella nodded and stood. She smiled and curtsied to him. "I have much to think on as well, Lord Dayne. Shall I send word to the Twins if you wish me to proceed."

"Maybe we should hold off on that just for now. I need to speak to one more person beforehand." He gave Isabella a smile. "Thank you for this. It's certainly helpful."

"Of course. I will see you sign, my lord." She turned and walked from the room.

"Good day Isabella." Euric said with a smile. "I wanted you to meet my lady wife. She too is interested in matters of secrecy."
