The Gardens

[Lord Donal Stormshield]

"Well that is good. I think it would be wise for you and your family to have these compatriots since you still do not know how your brother feels about your husband at the moment."

[Viea Greyjoy]

She nodded. "Unfortuntly he stayed in Pentos. I begged him to come, but now realise it might have been for the best that he stayed there."

[Lord Donal Stormshield]

Jon's smile fades, "Oh that is to bad I am sorry to hear that he is still in Pentos."

[Viea Greyjoy]

"He will be alright." She said. "He has to be alright."

[Lord Donal Stormshield]

"I am sure he will be just fine. He will make it home to see you and his lovely daughter again, I am sure of it."

[Viea Greyjoy]

Mari stared at him for a moment then laughed lightly.

"I think we were talking about a different man, sorry Lord Redfort. My husband has gone back to Blackhaven to see Steffon, but I havent seen him since leaving Runestone. My protector and friend is the one still in Pentos."

[Lord Donal Stormshield]

Jon blushes slightly at his misunderstanding "Ahh, well now that I have made a fool of myself this conversation can go nowhere but up. Back on to your compatriot apparently he is not much good of a guardian if he is on another land mass" Jon puts a look that claims what he says is in jest and not in seriousness.

[Viea Greyjoy]

"He was." She said softly. "No better a guard could be wanted by anyone."

[Lord Donal Stormshield]

"No one doubts his guardianship when he was with you, I meant currently now that he is not here."

[Viea Greyjoy]

She smiled. "He has his reasons, and it is a good one. I will do what I can to get him back, it is the least I can do for him after what he did for me."

[Lord Donal Stormshield]

"Ah well if you need any help with getting him back here, I would be happy to help with anything."

[Viea Greyjoy]

She smiled and shook her head. "There is nothing that can be done for him, I need to find the evidence when there seems to be none to find."

[Lord Donal Stormshield]

"Who is this guardian compatriot, and what did he even do to make it so he could not come back?"

[Viea Greyjoy]

"It doesnt matter." Marianne said, shaking her head. "I will find it out and get him back."

[Lord Donal Stormshield]

Jon can tell that the subject of her compatriot is now not going anywhere. "Well I will leave you to your evidence gathering then. In the meantime though what do you think about this name game that Lord Lannister has thought up for his tournament."
