He looks at it carefully and nods. "Quite impressive. I never figured you for a craftsman. How many of these have you made before?"

"This is the third one that I have made. The first one I made was for my father before he died the second one I made for myself. If treated well they last a long time and should only be made after an exceptional opponent is killed." He says educating the man on the culture behind the goblet.

He nodded, genuinely interested as he listened. "Who were the first two opponents... honored enough to become goblets?" He said the word honored with a smirk, imagining they were none too pleased.

"Only a few days too late, it seems," Catherine says. "Let's get settled upstairs...I'm tired from all this. And my cuts," she chuckled. "I heard that Lord Blackwood's army is coming here to start rebuilding."

"They where wildling raiders that thought the Island of Skaggos was a prime target for being raided, it took a while to hunt them down and catch them but in the end we where feasting on their flesh and my father and I had a goblet made of their bones." He claims.

"That's good news," Benjen said, helping her up the stairs to their room. "It will be a long time until the city can be lived in again... and who will come?" He shrugged.

Oriax waited outside Benjen's quarters patiently. The two had struck a bargain on the Isle of Faces and he meant to see it settled.

He chuckled, having his own experience with vengeance against raiders attacking his home. "Something I have much experience with. Raiders, that is. Not so much cannibalism and.. recycling. Would you care to spar, sometime? I'm interested in testing myself, and you seem to be the most difficult opponent I could imagine, as I've no experience against your fighting style.

"As long as the capital stays here, people will come," she said.

Benjen nodded to Catherine, before seeing the sorceror. "You," He said, opening the door to let Catherine in. "It was fortunate we had you with us to fight Meraxes."

The Crowl glances at the man like he is a madman, "We just got done fighting a goddess and the entire City of Eddard's Rest has been destroyed in the fight. I think the last thing I want to do, let alone think about right now is spar."

"I wasn't talking about this exact moment, but the fact that we did fight a goddess is more reason we need to practice more. We could have very easily died on that island if we didn't have Oriax there, and I don't think Meraxes even cared enough about us to try and kill us." He shook his head slightly, feeling his anger rise as he thought of the goddess.

"When things have settled down, I will spar you Ser Jason." The Crowl says. "Until then we need to recover and help things get back to normal."

He nodded, looking around for the millionth time today. "Of course. I wonder if the Northmen will move their capital, though. This is the second time their capital city has come to ruins right here. An ill omen if ever there were one."

The Crowl looks at the older man confused. "I doubt they will move it, plus I think this is the first time that Eddard's Rest has been damaged, and its the only wall's and the city. They will rebuild soon enough."
