"I want to get married, Benjen. The princess demands her crown." She grins at him. "Besides, according to your friend Ami there's still plenty we can do on our wedding night we haven't tried yet." she makes a face. "Also when I'm princess my father can't keep taking all of my crossbows."

"And what might those things be?" Benjen asked as they approached the keep. "As for the marriage, well that is a given. Once we are married you can have all the crossbows you want!"

The Prince chuckled. "I should have known it! Marrying me just for my crossbows," He grins as they pass below the gates.

It had been a long, long time but finally Prince Benjen returned home. He rode up to the gates of the Wolves' Keep and dismounted, entering the castle.

The streets are alive with people celebrating the fall of the chieftain. Benjen enters the castle and sees his family lined up. His sisters hug him, and his brother regards him with envy. Next to them is Catherine, a little bundle in her arms making more noise than seemingly all of the crowd outside.

Benjen smiled and waved at the crowds, gave his sisters a hug and his brother a clap on the back before kissing his wife.
"And who is this little one?" He asked, looking down at the baby.

Crowl rides with the rest of those arriving with the Prince, a single manly tear falls down his cheek as he watches the heartfelt family reunion of the Prince and the new little person.

"This is Rickon. Isn't he adorable?" He actually is, for a baby certainly not a month old. "I had him the day before we heard word of your victory." she said with a smile.

"A good omen," Benjen replied, taking the little man into his arms. "And an apt name as well."

"We thought so too. Come on, come on, you must be starving and tired. You need rest," she says.

"Of course," Benjen said, before pausing. "Where is father?"

"He's returning shortly. He had to ride west to talk to Lord Blackwood and the lords of the West." Catherine smiled. "He's fine."

"The West? What has been going on?" Benjen asked, handing the child back to her. "You must fill me in on everything." He frowned. "Cassadar was in the Vale, fighting with Draven. He said he was coming here to... deliver his present."
