Robyn Stark: 173 Nymos Qorgyle: 99 Kraznys: 157 Falkyn: 131 Gilbert Swyft: 129 Three Arrow Stann: 155 Nicholas Snow: 117 Amos the Tyroshi: 99
The archery begins, and the princess of the North has no difficulty in gunning everyone else down, her arrows straight and true. Kraznys is the only other archer to distinguish himself, though the homeless hedge warrior Stann quietly impresses.

After she declared winner, Robyn stuck out her hand to shake Stann's.
"Well fought, that was very close. Not often I meet other archers so skilled. Another day and you'd have had me."

"Another day maybe I miss my first shot," he said humbly. "I'm Stann. Honor to meet you, princess. I'd heard you were quite a shot." He is a man with an indeterminate southron accent, tall and lean and with the leathery skin of a long serving hedge knight.

"You're not too bad yourself." Robyn replied and smiled, "where about a are you from Stann?"

"Duskendale originally," he said. "Been in the first Vale war against Draven and lately the army of King Sirius," he said. "Now back home to enjoy a semi retirement. Twenty seven is a ripe old age," he jested.

"In meereen?" She asked, "how are things going over there when you left?" Twenty seven seemed very young to be semi retiring, "if you need work, were always in need of good people? I was going to give all the non nobles a share of my winnings, give the rest to some orphanages in the north, but if you'd rather a job,"

"Well, honestly, the Targaryens are headed for some strife. I think the prince is tired of his brother's irrationality." He shook his head. "So I came back to Westeros. What sort of work you need?"

"All sorts," she replied, "it is a shame, I liked King Sirius, he was very pleasant company, now is not a good time for s civil war in meereen, or a regicide,,,"

"Well he ain't so nice now," he said. "The blood got to his head, the dragon blood. Thinks he is a real dragon now." He considers her other words. "Well I've been known to do all sorts of work, I suppose. Never had the attention span to be a great guard though."

"Clearly you've never guarded someone like me then, I doubt the whisper would say he's bored," Robyn replied, laughing softly, "it is up to you, however. Perhaps you'd like to take time to decide, get yo know us and our other men, if not, I have something short term you may be able to help me with. Do you only use the bow?" She doubted it.

"I have my spear," he said. "I can use blades too but I like keeping a distance. Short term work is always appreciated," he allowed. "If it's sensitive we can talk later? If not, then consider me in."

"I just need to finalise how I am going to proceed, but I will let you know." She smiled, "tell me a bit more about yourself though, I like to know the men in our employ."
