They were back a dragon stone, planning their journey to winterfell. To gather their troops and defeat the army of the dead.

"if we have the dorthraki ride hard they will get to winter fall within a fortnight.' Jon said moving his hand along the map.

'And the unsullied?' dani questioned

'We can send them to White Harbor to meet the Dothraki on Kings road and we can ride together from there.' jon told her.

'Perhaps you should fly to Winterfell your Grace,' Mormont said 'you have many enemies all it takes is one angry man with a crossbow to see you are silver hair and want vengeance and declare himself the man who killed the conqueror...' Mormont warned.

'It's your decision your grace but if we are to be allies in this war is important for the northerners to see us as allies together' Jon told her

"if we sail to the Harbor together I think it sends a better message,' dani told them agreeing with jon. 'I have not come to conquer the north I'm coming to save the north, we sail together' Daenerys told Jon. 'kat, get the ships ready.'

'Jon could I speak with you?' Theon asked they were in the throne room black and eerie the light shining in from the windows eliminating them. 'What you did in Kings Landing you could've lied to Cersei about bending the knee to Daenerys you risked everything to tell the enemy the truth.' Theon reminded him.

'We went down there to make peace and it seems to me we need to be honest with each other if we are going to fight together.' Jon told him

"And you always know what is right, to be honest even when we were both young and stupid you always knew every step we take, it was always the right step.' Theon told him

'It may seem that way from the outside but I promise you that is not true,' Jon told him 'I've done plenty of things that I regret'

'Not compared to me you haven't' theon told him

'No not compared to you' Jon confirmed. Theon made his way closer to jon.

'I always wanted to do the right thing be the right kind of person but I never knew what that meant.' Theon admitted 'it always seemed like... Like it was an impossible choice I had to make stark or Greyjoy.'

'Our father was more of a father to you than yours ever was and you betrayed him!' Jon told him 'you betrayed his memory.'

'I did' theon agreed.

'Ned stark betrayed me too if that helps.' Kat said walking past.

"Kat?' theon questioned.

'He chose his new family over his old one and discarded me like scraps.' Kat said crossing her arms over her chest. 'Ned stark was not perfect Jon, he seemed like a good man to you and your family but he was just a man at his core. He lied, he betrayed, he hurt innocent little girls that just wanted their fathers to love them.' Kat informed him.

'Kat-' Jon began.

'No, don't make him out to be this hero because he wasn't.' kat said walking off. Jon thought about what kat said, she was his sister but he often forgot that she was Ned's daughter. That before the great Ned stark became the man he knew and loved. Kat never got a chance to meet that great man, perhaps Catelyn corrupted him, perhaps she made him better, perhaps she was a vile woman that couldn't ove anything that wasn't her was more likely, as she never liked jon.

'It's not my place to forgive you for all of it but what I can forgive...' Jon told him 'I do. You don't need to choose Theon you are a greyjoy and you are a stark.'

'When I was a prisoner my sister tried to save me she was the only one that tried to save me' Theon told them 'she needs me now'

'So why are you still talking to me?' Jon turned and walked away while theon contemplating what he had to do. He had to be brave now. His sister needed him.
