15. Secrets

Out of the woods // Ned stark out now

''Willow.'' Jorah whispered grabbing her hand. ''Stop that you are going to hurt yourself.'' He remarked she was clawing at her hands trying to get the blood off.

Willow stared at him a long moment until Grey Worm started shouting. Tyrion watched them curiously. 'Jorah of the Andal." Grey Worm said.

"Torgo Nudho." Jorah answered.

"You should not be here."

"No, but he is." Daario agreed.

"Our queen ordered him exiled from the city." Grey Worm said angrily.

"Our queen would be dead if not for him." Daario shot back.

"It's true. And I would be dead if not for the..." Missy glanced at Tyrion. "Little man."

"Dwarf." Tyrion corrected walking up to them, he spoke in broken Valyrian. "I believe that's the word. Apologies. My Valyrian is a bit 'nostril'." Missandei smiled at his mistake.

"A bit 'rusty.'" She corrected him, Tyrion nodding when hearing the mistake himself, repeating the word before thanking her. Grey Worm apologized for his absence, Daario only brushing it off as if it was nothing. Jorah didn't take things so lightly though.

"The longer we sit here bantering, the longer Daenerys is out there in the wilderness." Jorah reminded them.

"He's right." Tyrion agreed, "The dragon headed north. If we're going to find her, that's where we're to go."

"We?" Willow chuckled and Tyrion glanced up at her.

"We"? You are a Lannister. The Queen intends to remove your family from power."

"And I intend to help her do it." Tyrion said pointedly.

"You've been here for how many days now?" Jorah shot back. "I've fought for her for years. Since she was little more than a child."

"You betrayed her!" Tyrion reminded him but Willow could see Jorah's face harden,

"Careful now." He warned, but Tyrion didn't stop. He wanted to prove his point, why he was useful here, why the queen wanted him here

"And she exiled you, twice, I believe?" Tyrion said hotly.

"Tyrion, Jorah helped. A lot." Willow reminded him. "Maybe back off."

"The second time thanks to you." Jorah pointing out angrily.

"Don't blame me for your crimes, Mormont!" Tyrion countered.

'The Queen exiled Jorah." Daario agreed "But Jorah's right too. He saved her life." Jorah stared at him gratefully.

"And mine, after putting me in many situations," Willow began as she spit into her hands this blood was making her nauseous and it was staining her finger. "-to which I found myself needing saving." Willow tilted her head in contemplation.

"Perhaps she feels differently about him now," Daario added.

"Maybe not. The only way we'll know is if we ask her."

"Fine, fine." Tyrion agreed, "I suppose he can join us. Just as long as he promises not to kill me in my sleep." Jorah raised a brow.

"If I ever kill you, your eyes will be wide open." Jorah told him and Willow couldn't help but laugh.

"What? I like violent Mormont when he's not dragging me onto boats.' Willow remarked.

'You would help us here in Meeren, though." Daario turned his towards Missandei and Grey, "None of us have any experience governing a city, except for him. You want to prove your value to the queen? Prove it right here in Meereen." He told Tyrion. Jorah hesitated at this.
