After seeing her mother and thinking time enough had passed with the king and his heir, Robyn went to visit her father. This time dressed is clothes she felt a lot more comfortable in, a shirt and leather trousers. She had her bow on one shoulder, and her short blades sheathed to the other side. This time, mute Thom was with her.
Unlike with her mother, she waited to be invited in.

After a few minutes she is allowed in. The king greets her with a broad smile. "Robyn, my dear! How have you been, my flower?" He hugs her, his right arm weak. "You look dangerous."

"Thank you, I feel it," she said, grinning back to her father and returning his hug, not mentioning or even seeming to take in his fragility, "though it's easy to feel so with Thom at my back,"
She smiled at him again and hugged him once more, "I heard you were not well, it is so good to see it has passed. Sorry I could not be here."

Terrence coughs and sits down. "Well, it comes and goes. Much like you and Benjen, actually." He looks at her. "What would you like to discuss?"

"I was speaking to mother earlier, she is worried about Meera, in Sunspear. " she said, trying to be tactful, "I know Benjen is going east... But I was wondering." She paused for a second, and then nodded, looking directly at her father, "if I had your blessing to make my way down to dorne, to aid her if things... take turns for the worse."

Terrence's eyes narrow. "You wish to take a ship to Dorne? Now?" He looks into his glass. "I cannot allow it, not now. We cannot spare enough ships and men to make any difference." He nods. "We will evacuate Meera if it comes to that."

"Not a ship, " Robyn said eyes not leaving her father, she had been careful not to ask for permission in the first place, "if we wait it will be too late to help her,"

"How would you get there by land?" Terrence said. "The trip across Dorne alone is a thousand miles of burning desert. We wolves are not meant for so much sun. And, Lord Bryce is conquering every castle down there that stands against him. You will not go to Dorne, Robyn. And if you did, you had damned well better not walk there!"

"Meera manages." Robyn said, frowning slightly, "I'd at least go on horseback. The problem is, by the time any news reaches us here it is old news. How can we help her when we find out about everything Dayne does after he does it, and if he is conquering every castle on his way,""
She sighed and then looked back at her father, "I will go east with Benjen, but it is mother that will suffer the most of us if Meera is harmed."

"It is all of us who will suffer should Lord Bryce or the High Septon's faithful capture you, my dear," Terrence says. "You are too valuable to risk in such an isolated place."

"Thank you for the lies," Robyn said good naturedly, smiling at her father again, "I am sure it would be somewhat of a relief." She leant down to her father and kissed his cheek, "I'd best be ready to go off with Benjen then."
She walked to door and then looked back at her father, "If Benjen were not your heir, would you let him go?"

"No," Terrence says. "None of my children shall be allowed to commit suicide that easily. Lord Bryce and Frances Dayne are no fools to trifle with, even for one as formidable as you," he finishes. "Gods be with you, daughter."

"I don't think they're fools," Robyn said and opened the door, "Let them be with you too, father, I shall see you when we get back."
With that she left to rest for the night before leaving in the morning.
