"Believe me or not, it is the truth, for what it is worth." Killion stated. "However long we have, it is less than we did yesterday and every day we have war we will have less men to deal with it when time runs out."
"As I said, I am willing to talk terms, but I think it safe to say Lord Tomas is not. Do with that information and with my suggestion what you will. The woman will be returned and Lord Harwyn will not be present at the conference. Had I known he intended to bring her, it would not have been allowed in the first place. The silver lining is that at least she will be allowed to return home now."

"That she will," Benjen responded, drinking deeply for his cup. "I will consider the things you have said but I will not promise anything." He turned to look at Amelia, who simply shrugged. "If you have nothing else to say then I think we are done here."

///// A short time later, Raven decided to come and have words with her Prince. "Prince Benjen, may I have a word?" She waited to be allowed inside, they weren't out in the world anymore. Things were no longer relaxed, here she had to bestow him the proper courtesies, even though she wanted to smack him acroos the face.

Raven was allowed to enter the tent, where Benjen was studying several maps. "Hello Raven," He said, looking up for a moment. "How can I help you?" He asked with a slight smile.

"Well, first off.. Being that we haven't spoken in a while. I decided to pay my prince a visit", her smile was as small as his in return. "How have you been faring? It feels good to be home does it not?""

"Not as good as I had hoped," Benjen responded, shoving some maps out of the way. "This business with the Ironborn and whatever the hells is going on beyond the Wall makes me wish we had stayed in the east."

"I understand", she listened,"But we had to come back... This is home and you have to try and keep the peace and everyone safe."
"Speaking of peace", she sighed,"I spoke with your brother, Nick Snow." Raven looked at him,"T told him the truth, Ben, even if it meant my life I told him the truth to protect you. I don't expect you to agree with that I did, but I would like for you to understand."
"You have been my friend, and I care for you and I will protect you."

"I know," Benjen responded. "I have spoken with him... he almost left, you know. Westeros. For good. But someone managed to convince him to stay. Probably my sister, or Amelia, or both." He licked his fingers and extinguished the candler that was lit on his desk. "Thank you Raven, I can count myself lucky to have friends like you."

"I'll be there for you until all of this is done."
"I don't know what I will do after, maybe go east.. To stay",she shrugged,"If it's still existing, that is."

"Stay in the east? Gods, it is far too hot for that," Benjen responded, chuckling slightly. "But if you wish it then I cannot stop you."

She smiles,"Essentially there's nothing here for me.... I'm a bastard, atleast over there i can do something."

"You've done plenty here, Raven," Benjen stated, finding two cups and pouring ale. "Though I doubt my father would say no if you were to ask him to legitimise you. You've fought loyally in every war."

Taking the cup,"I almost forgot he can do that... I think it would make my father happy, he doesn't have any daughters.. Well,"she grinned,"legitimate daughters to wed off." She drank deep,"I may speak with my father about it."
"Thank you Benjen."

"You're a friend - I would be foolish not to help," Benjen responded, drinking. "I am sure my father will not say no to such a request. I will put in a good word for you as well, though likely it won't be necessary."
