Everyone in Castle Black was reunited in the Mess Hall, all but Shireen who was being tended to by Sam Tarly and Queen Selyse who had to be given something to sleep, as she was hysterical after Stannis had been shot.
"He killed the king." One of the Baratheon men said to everyone in the room.
"It is treason and he needs to be executed."Robb was outraged by this and stood up to defend himself amd his actions. "Your so called king was about to burn his own child alive so he could sit on the iron throne."
Many men nodded and agreed, Stannis was beyond reason.
One of the lords stood up and asked Robb what his intentions were "i suppose now you will take his place?"
"You are wrong my lord all i have ever wanted was justice for what has been done to my family and the northerners independence from southern rule. As of right now i believe you answer to princess Shireen." The Stark man reasoned.
"You think we should listen to a child?" Lord Musgood asks outraged.
Lord Davos, who had served as hand of the king to Stannis decides to intervene.
"My lords i served Stannis despite his many mistakes, i ackowledge that. However when i saw what he was about to do to the princess i went to get lord Stark, who put an end to Stannis madness and saved the princess." He says before turning to Robb adding,
"Lord Stark, you remind and your brother, the lord commander, remind me of your father. I never met him but only heard great things, and for that i pledge my sword to you and to help you get back Winterfell and the North from the Boltons." He said bending the knee to Robb and presenting his sword to him.
Many lords look up to Davos and just like him had great respect for the late Eddard Stark. So one by one the lords got on one knee and presented their swords and loyalty to Robb.
"Ser Davos speaks the truth. We live dark times in Westeros, there is an illegitimate Lannister on the iron throne. Stannis was mad and i am glad his reign is over. I wish to serve a good king before my time comes." Lord Caron states standing up and looking Robb in the eye.
"THE KING IN THE NORTH!" he hails followed by by the other lords in the room.
"THE KING IN THE NORTH!" All men hail.
And with it Robb was once again a king with men backing him up.

In Kings Landing, Jaime kept himself quiet watching Tommen like a hawk. Joffrey was dead, Myrcella was stuck in Dorne. He needed to make sure nothing happened to his youngest child.At a small council meeting, Master of Coin Mace Tyrell brings bad news that the Iron Bank of Braavos is starting to call in its debts from Westeros. "They have started by calling in a tenth of the Iron Throne's current debts to the bank, which the crown can only afford half of as rebuilding the Royal Fleet was also a massive expense."
Cersei looks upset knowing they cannot put off the payment much longer. "We need to find a way to appease the iron bank."
"Well, House Tyrell could front the gold, and the the Crown will pay us back in time." Mace offers happily.
But Cersei clearly does not want to give the Tyrells more power over the crown. "We cannot ask that of your House my lord. However the king would like you to travel to Braavos and negotiate for more time, this way the bank will see how seriously the crown is about paying its large debts.", she tells him, making Mace feel more importante and filled with pride.
