      I got up a little later after taking a short nap. And I had the weirdest dream... it was about Dragons. Why did I have to have a dream about dragon right after I got hurt..I don't remember everything about the dream, only that I was running in the woods hiding from a dragon

     
***

      2 men stab and killed 2 Lannister boys. They brought their dead bodies to the castle. While everybody was talking and took the murderers away all I did was look at the two young boys. How sorry I felt for them.
      And I know I didn't like the Lannisters but they were only boys...
      Robb sat down at his desk after he sent the 2 men away to be killed.

      Caitlyn stood and walked over. "The Karstarks are Northmen..."
      "Your mothers right" I added.
      "If you do this the Karstarks will abandon you"
      "You bandaged their wounds...brought them supper. Now they are dead." Robb said to me.
      "And more boys will keep dying until this war is ended..."

      "Don't kill him. Keep him as hostage." Caitlyn said."
       "A hostage yes, tell the Karstarks as long as they remain loyal he won't be harmed."
      Robb didn't say anything and just left the room.

***

      We couldn't stop him. We attended the beheading outside as it was raining so hard. Watching Robb behead the man we told him not to kill. His own wife and mother told him, yet he still did.

      After he did it. I stared at the head roll in the dirty wet grass. Robb walked away with anger. He'd been betrayed.

      Later that evening I walked the corridors of the castle. Passing bedrooms and looking out the windows as I pass. I heard some soft crying coming from a bedroom as I pass, it was Williams. I assumed he was sleep but I guess not.

      I knocked a couple times and let myself in, he was having a nightmare.
      "William!"
      "William... wake up!"
      "Wake up... wake up William, it's just a nightmare."
      He awoke fast and was out of breath. I rubbed his head and hugged him in my arms.
      "You don't have to tell me what it was about, it's okay."
      He laid on my chest as I laid back on the pillows. I put his head back down so he could fall asleep. I got up and walked towards the door-
      "Don't go sis, please stay until I fall asleep." He said.
      I closed the door back again and crawled in bed beside him. I stroked my hand through his hair. Rubbed his back a little.
      "Remember that lullaby father and mother would sing us." I said.
      "You have to sing it to be able to remember."
      I smiled after he said that. I continued stroking his hair.
      "It's always summer, under the sea
      I know I know, oh, oh, oh
      The birds have scales, and the fish take wing
      I know I know, oh, oh, oh
      The rain is dry, and the snow falls up
      I know I know, oh, oh, oh..."
      I looked over at William before I even finished the lullaby. He had fallen asleep, peacefully. I got up quietly blew out all the candles and left the room.
 
      The lullaby played in my head and hummed it as I walked the castle corridors again and headed to a room Robb was in. I walked in to him hovering over a table.

       "You have a beautiful voice." Robb said.
       "You heard from down the hall?"
       "I think the whole castle did, must've put them to sleep." Robb said. I smiled and snickered. His eyes traced the table once again as he was still planning on where to attack. He got mad again and threw a piece across the table. I approached him on the side he was standing on.

     
      "I don't know what to do, I can't just take Kings Landing."
      "We could ride north and take your land back." I said.
      "Take YOUR land back from the Greyjoy's."
      "When I gathered my lords and army together we had a mission, a purpose. Now we're like a band of bickering children."
      "Give them a new purpose." I said.
      "What..?" Robb questioned.
      "Oh I don't know, I don't even know where we are." I chuckled. Robb took my arm and pointed it to where we were currently at.
      "We're here, that's Winterfell, and Kings landing.." He said and I looked over at him. He dropped my arm and he looked like he found a plan.
      "I can't do this, and I can't do that." He said as he took pieces from the table.
      "I can take their home from them."
      "Can you do it?"
      "There is only one person in this kingdom with a army who hasn't sided with the Lannisters...." He said. I looked at him questioning waiting for his big final answer.
      "The man who's daughter I was supposed to marry."
      "Walder Fray."
