'I must say I received a slightly warmer welcome on my last visit.' Tyrion remarked, 'I was expecting more from you little Clegane. Considering what god pals your brother and I are.' Tyrion mused. Odetta just gave him a polite smile, if Catelyn was right Tyrion could have been part of the attacks on Bran.

'Any Man of the nights watch is welcome at Winterfell.' Robb told them and Tyrion glanced up at his companion.

'Any Man of the nights watch but I'm not a man of the nights watch am I boy?' Tyrion said making his way back from the wall and down through Winterfell to get to Kings Landing

'I'm not your boy. I am lord of Winterfell, while my father is in Kings Landing.' Robb corrected.

'Then you might learn a Lord's courtesy.' Tyrion told him as the door opened and Bran was carried in. 'So it's true.' Tyrion said as Hodor carried him to the front. 'hello Bran.' Tyrion said and Hodor stopped in front of Tyrion, Bran limp in his arms. 'do you remember anything about what happened?'

'He has no memory of that day.' the master said

'Curious.' Tyrion whispered.

'Why are you here?' Robb questioned

'Would your charming companion be so kind as to kneel?' Tyrion asked 'my neck is beginning to hurt.'

'Kneel Hodor.' Bran instructed

'Do you like to ride Brandon?' Tyrion asked

'Yes I mean I did like to...' Bra told him Odetta walked around the high table and propped Bran up in her lap before Tyrion.

'The boy has lost use of both his legs.'

'What of it?' Tyrion said 'with the right horse and saddle even a cripple can ride.'

'I'm not a cripple.' Brandon told him as Odie kissed his cheek. Hugging Bran to her.

'Then I am not a dwarf,' Tyrion retorted 'my father will be rejoice to hear it.' A smile tugged at Odies lips. 'I have a gift for you.' he handed him a scroll 'give that to your Sadler he will provide the rest.' Bran opened it up it was a sketch for a new saddle. 'you must shape the horse to the rider.' Tyrion told Robb 'you start with a yielding and then you teach it and train it to work with the boys needs.'

'Could I really be able to ride?' Bran questioned hopefully.

'On horseback you'll be as tall as any of them.' Tyrion assured.

'Is this some sort of trick?' Robb questioned 'why do you want to help him?'

'I have a tender spot in my heart for cripples bastards and broken things,' Tyrion said, 'also pretty girls with scary older brothers.' Tyrion winked at Odie.

'You've done my brother kindness the hospitality of winterfell is yours.' robb told him

'Spare me your false kindness and courtesies lord stark there is a brothel outside to which there I will find a bed, I will sleep easier. My lady,' tyrion said bowing before Odie

'Thank you Tyrion.' odetta called after him. 'I can have to this sent right away.' she told bran brushing his hair from his face kissing his cheek.
