Katherine


Sansa and Katherine return to the dining room and sit down near their parents. Just before the feast is served the king holds up a golden cup and stands from his chair and on a wooden box that makes him look taller.

"A toast to my beautiful daughter, the perfect bride, to my future son, who's not here yet. Dorne is quite far. "

He gets a couple of chuckles and whistles. 

"And to my youngest, she's also not here..let them have their fun. And to many grandchildren in the future. "

Katherine blushes and feels flushed by the statement.

 "Now let's feast!"

Everyone ate, talked and danced. Katherine went to her mother and asked. 

"May I be excused, mother? "

"But darling, this feast and celebration is for you,"She pushes a strand away from her face. 

"I'm tired. It's been a long day." 

"Alright then darling, don't forget to see what Larna's doing before you go to rest. " 

"Yes, mother. "

Then the queen kisses her daughter, and then she leaves.

Katherine first searches the garden for the trio. Nowhere to be found, they would probably be at the stables but it's quite the distance and she doesn't feel like walking all the way. It's dark and the moon is out. A pearl in the black sea. She doesn't find them in the valleys surrounding the castle. She gives up and decides to take a stroll on the beach. The beach is quite a distance from the castle grounds but not as far as the stables, it takes about 30 minutes to get there. Katherine takes off her heels and unties her hair. She feels the sand, a golden blanket before the water, in between her toes.

After walking beside the sea for a while Katherine comes across a rock pool that is in low tide (Meaning it is not overrun with water) She climbs on the rocks, looks around and decides to sit and watch the ocean

She starts worrying about when the Lannisters arrive, they are quite an odd bunch. Tywin Lannister gives her a foul feeling in her heart and stomach. And King Robert Baratheon is such a pig, the audacity of that man, having distasteful jokes and the rumours of him sleeping around. She anyway only sees him red-faced from drink. She doesn't have any other feelings for the others, probably because she hasn't been near them or spoken with them enough. While spiralling through her thoughts she sees an odd large rock, that is perfectly an oval. Only with some starfish and barnacles attached to it. Curious, is all she thought, she decided to take the odd rock and take it home. Her mother must be worried, she wouldn't want a search party searching for her.

She successfully sneaks into the castle and her chamber. She can't wait to show Larna what she found. She put the rock on top of her vanity in a large box (which had one of her wedding gifts previously) She theorizes that this odd rock may be a dead dragon egg or a mythical creature's egg! She sleeps with curious happy thoughts.
