"Can't be too complicated if you've a mastery of it." he quipped, happy to get to wet his whistle. "Sounds as if my part in this is fairly simple: charge in, kill until there's no killing left to do, grab a drink."

Benjen gave a low chuckle as they made their way to a tent to drink. "It's unlikely you will run out of things to kill - have you seen the enemy force?" He points across the river to where the huge host is. "A lot of them speak the common tongue for some reason. Should be a good fight though."

"Word is you've had no shortage of those of late." he remarked, looking out at the vast host arrayed before them. "Seems some congratulations are in order. Men like Dayne make the world interesting but painfully grim."

As they inspect the host, they see a few banners being set up; three dragons impaled on a spear.

"I would rather a dull world than an interesting one, if men like Bryce Dayne are the entertainment," Benjen commented as he sat and opened a bottle of rum, then a bottle of wine, then a bottle of whiskey. "But I appreciate the gesture. It cost plenty of lives to stop one man. They're the ones that should be thanked."
He noticed the banner. "Well that's not good."

"The Drowned Men teach us that the valiant slain are feasted in his halls. For the sake of your men, I hope your gods are as generous." he replied, eying the flag with a mix of apprehension and amusement. "You've no idea. Funny how you fly halfway across the world and still run into familiar faces. We're in for a fine fight after all."

"Three dragons is just painfully inaccurate these days" Robyn muttered, having had been there the whole time.

"You know those people?" Benjen asked Killion as he poured himself some rum and drank deeply.

"Met them in the same place I picked up the wine." he replied. "Mercenary company that carved a kingdom in Sothoryos. Led by one of yours actually, a Reed. Formidable folk and not particularly fond of dragons as you can see. Wouldn't mind a word with them."

"Huh, well let's see if they want to talk," Benjen said, pointing to a servant. "Have a messenger sent to those of the dragon banner. Ask them if they fancy a drink." He turns to Killion with a grin. "I'm not moving."

Vhagusand chuckles at Robyn. "Perhaps two and a headless one then."
The messenger rushes off. He returns a while later. "They say they can meet where the fight was the other night."

"In the river?!" Benjen asks, looking annoyed. He sighs and looks around. "Right, shall we then? I'm taking these with us." He grabs several bottles then points at a few men. "Carry this table, will you?"
He looks to Killion. "Coming?"

"Afraid to get your feet wet, Stark?" he took a fresh skin of wine. "Lets try to have this go better than the last time we shared a table."

"I'm just saying, accuracy counts." Robyn replied, looking on at the inner workings of war making... and not being all that impressed.

Vhagus shrugged. "They get points for audacity, I will admit. Most of my enemies skulk and hide." He smiled a bit. "I find this refreshing."
As the princes (and princess?) walk into the shallow part of the river, they come to a small sandbar where the water has receded. A large and heavily armored knight. Is at the center of the small group. To his right is a slim Braavosi water dancer and to his left is a young woman who looks enormously bored. Million of course recognizes Balor Saan, Cedric Dayne, and Eliza Satarts immediately. Cedric looks to the group. "Wolves and Krakens together. I believe I've heard a joke about that." He looks behind them. "But adding the dragon makes it much less funny."
