RIVERLANDS-THE TWINS

A massive castle that serves as the stronghold of House Frey. A raven is seen flying out of a window on the castle when suddenly an arrow hits it and kills it instantly. Darin who is shown to have fired the arrow that killed the raven, is shoving going over to it and retrieving the message it was carrying. He brings it back to Robb, who is standing with a group of his advisors,

Robb: It's a birthday message to his grand-niece Walda.

Rohar(smirks): I'm surprised he hasn't married her. Disgusting old fuck.

Theon: [doubtfully] Or so Walder Frey would have you think.

Catelyn: [to Darin] Keep shooting them down.

Darin nods his head

Catelyn: [to Robb] We can't risk Lord Walder sending word of your movements to the Lannisters.

Rohar: We need to cross... and we need to do it soon. The longer we wait, the less time that Ned, Hanir, Elizabeth, Sansa and Arya have and I really don't want Talana to cut my balls off if Sansa is harmed. I rather like my tender bits.

Robb: He's Grandfather's bannerman. We can't expecting Lord Walder's support?

GreatJon: Expect nothing of Walder Frey and you'll never be surprised.

Rohar: I am not marrying one of his daughters. You can't make me.

Robb(smirks): We'll see about that, won't we?

Rohar glares at him.

Everyone turns their attention to two riders approaching, with the banners of House Frey.

Robb: Father rots in a dungeon. How long before they take his head?

Rohar: This is why we need to fucking cross.

Robb: [urgently] Aye, we need to do it now.

Rodrik: You're sure you still want to negotiate with this child raper?

Theon: Just march up to the gates and tell him you're crossing. We've got five times his numbers. You can take the Twins if you have to.

GreatJon: Not in time. Tywin Lannister marches north as we speak.

Catelyn: The Freys have held the crossing for 600 years, and for 600 years they have never failed to exact their toll.

Robb: Darin, have my horse saddled

Rohar: I'll go with you

Robb: No, Rohar. I need you to stay here.

GreatJon turns to face Robb, surprised.

GreatJon: Enter the Twins alone and he'll sell you to the Lannisters as he likes!

Theon: Or throw you in a dungeon. Or slit your throat.

Rohar: Look I hate Walder Frey more then anyone but I don't think he'll do that..........I hope not. I think he won't. I don't know.

Robb rolls his eyes

He looks uneasy as he sees the Frey riders getting closer.

Rohar: At least take some men with you, Robb.

Robb: My father would do whatever it took to secure our crossing. Whatever it took.

He glances at his mother. She looks at the rider, worried.

Robb: If I'm going to lead an army, I can't have other men doing my bargaining for me.

Catelyn: I agree. I'll go
