I edad of the house

Stark Lord of Winterfell and Warden of

the north sentenced you to die I saw

Walkers you understand why I did it he

sentence should swing the sword is it

Stark I would name you the hand of the

king I have no choice that's what you

tell your family tell yourselves that's

what men always say when honor

calls you do have a choice and you've

made

it you might not have my

name you have my blood bastard boy with

nothing to inherit off to serve in the

Ancient Order of the Night's Watch next

time I see you you'll be all in black

you was always my color you were never

afraid was nothing to be afraid of

chosen your opponents wisely I have an

act for it the Targaryen girl convinces

her hor Lord husband to invade we won't

be able to stop them get it over with

cut her throat we commit murder on the

word of this man I'm a purveyor of

beauty and

discretion all desires are

valid juring to a man with a full

purse we've come to a dangerous

place I was trained to kill my enemies

as was I everybody knew what this place

appears you're the least useless person

distrusting me was the wisest thing

you've done since you climbed off your

horse getting it allor that's keeping

the peace it's fear fear and blood
