Seige of Raventree Hall

**Zeus Almighty** · July 20, 2016, 12:37 AM

Led by Brynden "Blackfish" Tully

Militia

Led By Myles Tully

Prof troops

Ser Brynden Tully marched with his militia and his nephews men in tow to Raventree Hall to hopefully end all the infighting once and for all. Brynden and Myles had been planning the restoration of the Riverlands since his return and his nephews attempts at political resolution had failed. Now it was time to do things Blackfish's way. Frey seemed to have a similar mindset, setting out as they did for Raventree Hall. As Lord Frey began to set for siege, Brynden called out to the gates of Raventree Hall along with some trusted men with intention of speaking terms.
"Lord Blackwood and Ser Noremund Blackwood. It is Ser Brynden Tully here to speak terms and end this once and for all! Come, speak with your liege's representative. No more bloodshed must be had."

Noremund was nervous to say the least. He had separated from the main host to check on his household, and for another reason. Ralf was not going to agree to peace, not willingly. He was to far gone for that, he had seen it in his eyes. In away he blamed himself, was it not he who originally called for war? He had not seen the bigger picture then, he had been emboldened by the allies they had made. As such Noremund had decided that there would be no more bloodshed. He wanted to find a wife, he wanted his sisters to find husbands and live happily. So the gate opened and Noremund stepped forward to meet Ser Bryden accompanied by his guards.

"Ser Bryden, I am keen to see a end to this disaster, name your terms."

"Noremund yes?" Brynden questioned and then proceeded.
"Aye, I lament it having to turn this way. Riverland against itself it is pathetic. Although I think your brother will not like them, terms are simple. But niceties in negotiations have fallen by the way side. Ralf will be stripped of lands and titles and escorted North, to serve on the Wall." Brynden paused to let that sink in for a moment and continued.
"By decree of Lord Warrick Tully Warden of the Riverlands, Noremund Blackwood is to take Ralf Blackwoods place as head of the House and ruler of Blackwood lands. Your younger brother may take command of the lands granted to you prior, until such a time Lord Tully finds him unfit, or until his passing. Further, Lady Adiana will be the guest of House Tully for a few years, while the Riverlands stabilizes. These are terms and they are set in stone. Your brother may not agree, but those are terms."

OOC- Yes you did, but I swear on heaven and earth it was only because I was waiting to finish the cleanup RP at the other siege. Otherwise I would have posted it earlier

A large host, seemingly untouched and with more banners than took place in the battle, arrive and begin constructing siegeworks. The Frey banner flies prominently.

ooc: It should be noted that Frey forces arrived here first

Having been cut out of the proceedings entirely, Walder was in a black mood. Treat with my defeated enemy for me while doing nothing? Tully had damn well better secure favorable terms. He did not lose thousands of his own men for nothing, and Blackwoods lands had tripled in size in the space of a year. Tully was playing some game, and Walder did not like it. If Tully favored his enemy he was no true ally. He spurred his mount forward, giving the order to march to Harrenhall.

ooc: There's a chance they wouldn't have treated with Walder anyway but you're going to have a veritable riot on your hands with those terms offered to Blackwood be forewarned

OOC- I couldn't have gone to siege Whent, I wanted to talk about that at the wrap up in the other thread. We are related so it wouldn't sit well sieging/fighting them. A ward and banishment of the man that attacked Frey, I wouldn't have found them to be miserable terms. Send me a message of what you would have asked for, I think I may not be very good at this hard ass thing, though I have been trying lol.

We coils finish up that rp in Stone Hedge before continuing here or at Harrenhall. i think that might be best

Noremund thought about his options, these terms were not great, but where clearly the best they where going to get. He sighed, "Very well, if those are the terms, and Lord Frey agrees to them. However what of the whent's? I cannot simply leave our allies. In addition i must be allowed to communicated with my brother, as he is not here."

**Zeus Almighty** · July 24, 2016, 10:43 AM

And where in the bloody hell is he? He left his land in the face of defeat? He was not captured this I know.
Brynden said calmly.
Lord Frey does not have to oversee my negotiations. I assure you. And Lord Whent is my Good Brother, Grandfather to Lord Warrick. He will not be harmed if it can be avoided. But his forces are broken.

**mic1402** · July 24, 2016, 05:08 PM

"He is at harrenhall along with most of my house, for raventree hall is empty. It seems if we are to resolve this conflict we must travel there."

**Zeus Almighty** · July 24, 2016, 06:18 PM

"Then we must. Open the gate, my brothers man will keep several men here, we will fly the Tully flag side by side with Blackwood banners and ensure we are ready if your brother happens to swing back this way. We leave at once. And we should both pray we get there before Frey is done with Harrenhal."
