    Lord Tyrell gathered the houses of the north-western coast into one of three forces that now have been raised.

    A raven from Baelor arrives:

    "My Lord Tyrell, you may continue the hunt for the bandits and pillagers, but your troops shall not forage or inflict any damage to the Westerlands, in fact you will have to pay for everything you need for your army, as the King's Peace demands. However nothing shall be paid to Casterly Rock castellan, those golden dragons are needed in the Reach, as you wisely told in your letter. Remember you act under my orders, and such you should behave accordingly, something I think you are more than capable to do.

    Bring me that brigand and you shall be rewarded, as fitting, my dear Lord Victor. I trust in you Lord Tyrell, I don't doubt your prowess and skills.

    In the Light of the Seven"

    A raven arrives at the encampment of Ser Rickard Tyrell with a letter from the Army of the Honeywine. The letter reads:

    To Ser Rickard Tyrell,

    I have ordered the army of the Honeywine to withdraw towards the Ring to establish a defensive position between the Ring and Bitterbridge. I had dispatched scouts into Westerlands in hopes of discovering the movements of the bandits that have raided our homeland but they have yet to return and I fear that the bandits may have captured or killed them all. Unwilling to march my men into a potential ambush and unable to keep my army supplied at Alden Hall, I have been forced to withdrawal to the Ring and Bitterbridge region and I await your further orders there. It seems my Lord that the bandits have departed the Reach and I see no reason to invade the Westerlands to find them. Many of the other Lords are in agreement as they fear with our army gone, the bandits would sneak back into the Reach and continue ravaging our homelands. I await your further orders.

    Signed,

    Ser Rolland Hightower, Lord Marshal of Oldtown, Commander of the Army of the Honeywine.

    Another raven arrives at the encampment of Ser Rickard Tyrell with another letter.

    To Ser Rickard Tyrell,

    I have just spoken with an envoy from the Westerlands. He tells me that the Northerner Sirsha Stark has been spotted outside of Lannisport and that she and her soldiers may soon do battle with the Westerlander Army. In my talks with the envoy, we have also speculated that the Northerner may very well be behind these bandit raids as she masquerades behind hunting the bandits herself. My Lrod, I beseech you to call off your march into the Westerlands and return to the Reach. I fear that other forces are in play that are attempting to drive the Reach and the Westerlands to war for their own gain.

    Signed,

    Ser Rolland Hightower, Lord Marshall of Oldtown, Commander of the Army of the Honeywine.

    A raven from Riverrun

    Your gracious lordship, it is my understanding that you have been cooperating with strategic intelligences in regard to the hunt of the criminal warband known as the ghosts, under the king's warrant with my lady Sirsha Stark. Lord Artos is right now with the king, hunting in the Kingswood but we expect his return any day now. He has gathered his 7000 elite swordsmen at Golden Tooth and now supported by Sirsha's own 2000 elite pikemen from the Bloody Gate. We still await word from Sirsha's outriders, last news was that Lannister had gathered 40,000 men at Lannisport.
