Prince Jacaerys and a slightly injured Vermax set down near the Lannister force, having found nothing at either Deep Den or Stoney Sept, save for arrows and hurt at the latter.

[Trot]

ooc You got really good rolls combined with the base defensive bonus your keep gets it wasn't all that surprising.

[Poach]

So...?

[Pontifex Maximus]

Rather confused as to why the Lannisters had stormed the keep of their own vassals and then stayed there for close to a year, he began looking for Ser Jonah

Because the game was stopping and starting and the Reynes were away apparently at Riverrun for God knows what reason as it happens.

Ser Jonah was sitting by a fire sharpening his blade in what probably was an encouraging sign.

[Narsils_Shards]

OOC: I believe it's called fishing. How else do you kill trouts.

[Pontifex Maximus]

ooc: lol get it together Westerlands

Armand approached the man and introduced himself. "Ser Jonah, I presume? I am Ser Armand Arryn, of the Queensguard. Lady Johanna has sent me here, she says you would make a good candidate for a knight of the Queensguard. The Queen has requested a representative from each kingdom."

[Mortis Nuntius]

Ser Jonnah looked surprised. "Truly?"

[Pontifex Maximus]

"Truly, Ser." Armand responded. "If you would take me up on the offer I encourage you to make haste to the capital."

[Mortis Nuntius]

"I must first speak to my Lord cousin." Warned Jonah.

[Pontifex Maximus]

"Of course, the formalities msut be observed." Armand wasn't worried. He had been successful so far. "What is going on here, anyway?" he asked, gesturing to the carnage along the walls, the blackened smoke rising from the camp and holdfast. "Did the Reynes turn cloak?"

[Mortis Nuntius]

"Aye they did." Jonah confirmed grimly. "They aided Crakehall in his madness, ignored the orders of their liege and now it seems they plotted to murder our good Lord of Lannister for marriage. Reyne is a dead man walking although the craven was not here."

[Pontifex Maximus]

"Those are grievous charges - proving them may be difficult." Arryn added.
