'I'm sending you two back to Winterfell." Ned told sansa and Arya.
"What!" Sansa declared furiously, "What about Joffrey?"
"Are you dying because of your leg?" Arya questioned.
"Please, father. Please don't." Sansa's voice wavered with panic.
"You can't! I've got my lessons with Syrio. I'm finally getting good."
"This isn't a punishment sisters." Ned assured them. "I want you back in Winterfell, for your own safety."
"Can we take Syrio back with us?"
"Who cares about your stupid dancing teacher? I can't go. I'm supposed to marry Prince Joffrey. I love him and I'm meant to be his Queen and have his babies."
"Seven hells." Ned muttered. "When you're old enough, I'll make you a match with someone who's worthy of you, someone who's brave and gentle and strong."
"I don't want someone brave and gentle and strong. I want him!" Sansa declared "He'll be the greatest king that ever was, a golden lion, and I'll give him sons with beautiful blonde hair." Sansa went on.
"The lion's not his sigil, idiot. He's a stag, like his father." Arya said matter of factly.
"No he's not. He's nothing like that drunk king." Sansa declared.
"Come girls. Go pack." Ned told them
'What about Josie! She wont know where we are! She's coming back here!" Sansa declared.
'Yeah we can't go, Josie won't know-' Arya agreed but that was a pitiful excuse for Ned could raven her.
'She is perfectly safe, she is with the Tyrells, you my dearest are not safe here.' Ned told them. 'Go, stop arguing and pack.' Ned demanded and had Septa take them back to their chambers to pack.

'They butchered them as if they were animals they covered our children and pigs and let them on fire. They weren't thieves they didn't steal nothing they even left something behind your grace.'
'He is the king's hand you are addressing not the king' Pycelle said 'the king is hunting.' The man stepped forward dumping out a bag filled with fish.
'Fish... they sigil of house Tully.' Petyr noted. 'Isn't that your wife's house Tully?' Petyr knowing full well it was with a smug look on his face.
'These men were they flying a banner?'
'No you're... Hand. the Man leading them was taller than any man by at least a foot taller than any man I've ever met,' the man told Ned. 'the blacksmiths saw them take the head off the horse with a single swing of her sword.'
'That sounds like someone we know. The mountain.' Petyr clarified.
'You are describing ser Gregor Clegane.' Ned confirmed.
'Why would ser Gregor turn though he is an honored knight?' Pyselle said and Sandor scoffed.
'Honored.' Sandor muttered
'I heard him called Tywin Lannister's mad dog.' Petyr told them 'I'm sure you have as well. Can you think of any reason the lannisters might be angry with your wife?'
'If the Lannister's were to order an attack under the kings protection it would be-' Pycelle said cautiously.
'It would be almost as brazen as attacking the hand of the king in the streets.' Petyr informed him.
'Well...' Pyselle said awkwardly, he was loyal to the Lannister above all else.
'I cannot give you back your homes or restore your livestock but perhaps I can give you justice in the name of our King Robert. Lord Berick Dondarrion. You should have the command send 100 men and ride to Ser Gregor Clegane.'
