Harry was attentively watching the recruits, it was always good to know if the jobs were done as said, that's why he had to keep an eye on everything.

Even if he was 17 years old and had such high pressure, as being the Head of the Stark House and Ruler of the North, nobody could say anything about what this boy was doing, and even if he could repeat it countless times, not even people three times his age could understand how Harry had so much control over what was happening in the North and outside of it.

In that thought his sister was approaching, Artemisia came to visit him, as a week ago she had a small encounter, with his betrothed, he didn't know how it went. But Margaery sent him a letter thanking him for his gift and hoped that next time he could go and deliver it to her personally, which was not in his thoughts at present. He knew Margaery was interested in meeting him, but Harry was someone who did not have it in his thoughts to meet her, not at the moment, he wished to do a few more things before meeting her, such as winning a war. He hoped that the Greyjoys would only take one more year to declare rebellion.

Artemisia looked at her brother, he was tall no doubt, at 17 years old, he was tall and had a good physique very different from many guys the same age as her and her brother, she also knew that many girls came on to him, that was why Mya preferred to stay in Winterfell since Harry was going to have to need protection in that sense, because after all he was a man and sometimes men stopped thinking with their heads and thought with their balls.

The two of them loved Harry like a brother, and let's just say that the girl who wanted something with Harry had to go through several points, Artemisia, Mya, and of course Ashara who was Harry's mother. None so far could overcome Artemisia, as many women were afraid of her, but like Harry, she was curious about Margaery. That woman was dangerous, she didn't have the presence that Harry had from afar you knew you didn't have to play with him because he wouldn't hesitate to do something to you, Margaery was the complete opposite, you didn't see her as a danger, you saw her as someone you could trust, that was the dangerous thing about her.

- "You couldn't have chosen a worse fiancée brother" - Artemisia said what she thought, which made Harry laugh, he expected from the beginning that Artemisia would say that, it was very natural for her to be so direct - "The people who were in that place, were puppets for her" - Artemisia's face showed neutrality, Ashara taught her that it was not good to show so many emotions, because they could be used against her, in several points - "I still think it would be much better, to find you another wife."

- "Margaery can be a great ally, for us, that's why we still don't know each other in person" - Harry knew that Artemisia would understand his way of acting, it was natural, from the beginning he gave her the understanding that Margaery was a very dangerous woman, her beauty was only something to make people fall in a deadly trap, since long time ago he knew about that - "When the North shows its true power, I will go to meet her, and we will see what can happen."

- "I heard that Jones is very impatient" - Artemisia heard that David Jones, a Bravos' cargo port, a very rare thing, and by Harry's calm look, he implied that he was the person who ordered that attack since Harry was not going to give free will to Jones, who would be able to attack at any moment the Iron Islands - "Why did you order that attack?"

- "To teach the Iron Bank a lesson, they were providing gold for the Greyjoys to attack the North" - That made Harry be feared, that he would not tremble to launch an attack, even if there were children in that place, they attacked his kingdom, he was going to be the same, it was only a warning, although the men who commanded the Iron Bank did not know who were responsible for the attack - "Winter may even reach Braavos."

Ashara and Elia went to visit their relatives, although Ashara preferred that her father and siblings come to the old Palace where they were not going to argue since they were going to be under the watchful eye of Oberyn, who was a good host.
