"Good. Be the same, only married to someone who won't raise a rebellion." He smiles and dismisses her.

Amelia leaves, wondering who the hell she would marry.

Robyn arrives to see her father, if he is free.

Terrence has her ushered in immediately. "Good morning, Robyn," he said happily. "How are you?"

"Surprisingly well, considering how much Joanna and I drank last night," Robyn admitted, she would probably suffer in a bit, she had been drinking late.
"Are you well?" He sounded happy.

"I am," Terrence said. "King Brynden writes Highgarden will fall soon, which will free his hands to come assist us in containing Bryce Dayne." He stretches. "Glad to see you getting along with your sister in law."

"She is easy to get along with, and it is even easier to make friends over wine," she admitted, "I am glad to hear it, it will be good to concentrate all the forces on one place, which is something to do with what I wanted tot talk to you about," Robyn segued, seemed to be a good link. "I was speaking to Walter Arryn, and he told me if the siege at the Eyrie were to break, it would free up about four thousand men. The siege will only be broken by killing Arryn's uncle, so I offered to go and help. I feel I would be more valuable there sneaking into the Eyrie than just another bow in the army down south at the moment."

Terrence frowns a bit at the thought of scaling the great, probably slippery, mountain. "We could use the swords," he admits, apparently accepting the fact his youngest daughter is a soldier, not a normal lady. "But I don't know Ser Walter worth anything, so take someone we trust with you. Preferably...one better with a sword than him."

Terrence should probably have not accepted it a long time ago, if he wanted a normal lady, letting her have martial training was perhaps the first nail in that coffin.
"Nick has already agreed to come with me, and we trusted him with Meera life, so I should think he should do..." clearly there could be no higher trust, "As for being better at him with a sword, I cannot say as to if he would be better, as I have not seen him fight, but I have seen Nick, and he is rather skilled."
Robyn felt a dull pain beginning to develop in the front of her head... she knew she had been too lucky to escape feeling so much drink forever.

The king nods slowly. "If you trust him, he has certainly proven his worth to me," he said. "And from everything I've heard he can fight like his lineage would suggest." He looks at her a moment. "Sooner or later I'm going to have to start rewarding you for your good work," he joked. "But, seriously, what do you want, my dear? You have gone above and beyond what anyone could expect."

Robyn was surprised by the question, and laughed softly, "I do not do the things I do because... I hope you may reward me..." she replied honestly, then stood a little straighter "I am a Stark, my duty is to defend and protect my house and its lands, you should not need to reward people doing only what they are supposed to"

"The only reason to reward someone is for doing exactly what they are supposed to," Terrence corrected. "What wold you like? Surely there is something?"

Robyn really had no idea, she had never thought the question would be posed to her. "What I want... I..." Robyn looked at him and sighed, "What I want, what I would ask for, opposes everything I just said, about putting the family first..." If she was asking for what she wanted, she would have asked her father to waive his right to make her marry. Not that a marriage was anywhere neat the horizon for her.

Terrence looks at her. "Which is...?" He waits a moment. "You can decide later, if you like. After you reclaim the Vale for me," he winks.

"Well, I rather think my demands may go up after that, if deeds are currency round here" she said, but grinned at her father to show she was joking, "Take care of yourself" She walked over to him and put an arm round him, hugging him briefly. "If I manage to free up those men, I may try and take them straight south, I do not know if I will be returning, but I hope you stay safe, you and mother and Hector and Meera and Joanna..."
