As Prince Benjen and his men race back east, they see a long column of smoke rising from the city on the lakeside.

The moment he sees the smoke the Prince kicks his horse into a gallop. "NO!!" He screams, not caring that he rushed out ahead of the column of men. He needed to get to Eddard's Rest right now.

Crowl kicks his unicorn mount ahead to match the space of Benjen. Where his prince went Crowl followed as his ever loyal bodyguard.

They rampage through to the gates of the city to see utter pandemonium. The gate guards are battling hundreds of men who, under their tunics, wear the seven pointed star of the Faith Militant. The fact that the Faith had supposedly disarmed over a year ago crosses everyone's mind, but the fight looks to be on as the city burns. The castle seems in good shape, with crossbowmen holding off any advance and the stout walls having needed no rebuilding.

"What..." Benjen whispers, his eyes going wide at seeing the fight that is taking place. The shock of it all brings anger to the Prince but a cool regard for what was going on took over, something he had learned from Rickon.
Benjen drew his sword and, turning briefly to look at his men, roared for them to charge into the fray with only one intent - Destroy the Faith Militant force.

Crowl charges into the fray with his mighty battle roar as he goes to grab the closest enemy and start what he does best, ending peoples lives.

The enemy forces note the approaching storm of soldiers and begin scattering. Benjen cuts two down effortlessly as they scramble away. Crowl mauls his way through the unarmored men and the northmen scramble to the central park. As they arrive at the park they see the remains of a massacre. Dozens of bodies lie dead, some still moving with their death rattles. Fires burn around the area, and near the sept the group sees a force of people entering. Screams are heard from within. However, another group of marauders are attempting to batter down the gate leading to the castle proper.

Crowl continues his gleeful killing spree: punching, squishing, and destroying people's ability for logical thought with his gauntleted fists, as he makes his way towards the gate to stop the men from battering it down.

Benjen looks up and notes the horrendous slaughter and destruction, though he sees it almost through a haze. His eyes move between the gate and the sept, fear creeping up his spine.
No... not again...
"Crowl! Take the men and stop them from breaking down the gate!" He pointed at some men. "Thirty men, with me to the Sept!!!" He turns and rides towards the sept, sword raised.

Crowl runs into a wall of men wielding spears and axes and maces. They attack viciously, seeking to slow the bestial man down.
Crowl: 97 fists, Plate Man 1: Spear Man 2: Axe Man 3: Axe Man 4: Mace
Round 1:
Crowl: 181 (-10 for numbers) Man 1: 84 (-35) Man 2: 123 (-35) Man 3: 141 (-20) Man 4: 111 (-35)
Crowl's armor, spiked gauntlets, and ridges on the steel he wears tear holes in the men trying to hold him off. He essentially ignores every effort they make to hurt him as they lay bleeding in his wake. He doens't even slow down to finish them, leaving them to the men behind while he tackles a juicier target; the battering ram itself.
Round 1:
Crowl: 100 Ram: 175
The ram is unfazed by his insane attempts to break the iron head off the ram

Round 2:
Crowl: 190 Ram: 175 (-20)
Somehow, the man's gargantuan strength is causing cracks in the oak shaft of the ram.
Round 3:
Crowl: 173 Ram: 155 (-40)
As men try striking him down, Karyl picks up one of the wounded men from before and uses his head in an attempt to wedge the iron head off. Miraculously, this succeeds.

Crowl turns to the men surrounding him who kept trying to attack him while he was beating the shit out of a wooden rod. "Counting to three, anyone left is going to be my dinner." He says violently and loudly. putting up his plated hands already covered in blood and gore ready to make an attack.

Benjen and company face down with armed men. One among them has a sword bigger than the heir to the north is tall.
Ben: 93 sword, plate, shield Intruder: NPC BFS, Plate
Round 1:
Ben: 176 BFS: 145 (-15)
Benjen is filled with a cold fury and avoids the first huge arc of the blade, smashing his shield into the assailant's kneecap and pushing backwards.
Round 2:
Benjen: 150 BFS: 124 (-30)
Hate in his eyes, Benjen smashes the slowed man again with a brutal pommel strike, knocking out three teeth.
Round 3:
Ben: 122 (-5) BFS: 155
The man swiftly counters the tooth hit and his sword finds a whole in Ben's plate joint, cutting into his shoulder.
Round 4:
Ben: 107 BFS: 77 (-50)
Ben is on a rhythym now, revenge clouding his vision as he slashes again and again, leading to an ugly but total decapitation. He enters the sept with his friends at his side.

After scaring everyone away from the gate Crowl makes his way back to the Sept to help clear it from all the evil people.

Benjen stops only to wipe the blood from his blade before steeling himself and entering the sept. It was time to kill those that would do his family harm.
