Thrid Person POV
Westeros, 295 AC.
---------------------------------------
As soon as Jon Arryn reported, the room fell silent, while everyone had a moment to themselves to think, after all they had heard. Some were already aware of this group and some of their actions, even the information that the fleet would divide with its own spies, but certainly, there were more details with the accounts from Varys.
"Threat?! Ned's sons are not a threat!!" Robert exclaimed angrily.
"My king, I think you should see the situation as a whole, a fleet emerging beyond the wall is concerning...!" Pycelle advised.
"The boy was just negotiating with those snakes, I don't see what the problem with that is, besides him not bringing the products and ice here, of course." Robert spoke firmly, believing that Ned's sons were not evil or a threat, despite everything.
"The bastard offended you some years ago when you demanded him to come here!" Cersei said, not wanting a Northern bastard wandering around taking Westerosi trade, which could be bad for her family and her father.
"Yes, he deserves a beating, and I'll give it to him when I see him in front of me, but that doesn't mean I see him as an enemy." Robert spoke, still not wanting to see Ned's blood as a threat.
'I'd like to see that...' Jon thought, looking through the raven calmly while listening to the conversation, after all, that fat man no longer had the ideal weight to hold a hammer as he claimed to carry.
"Even so, my king, many might think otherwise, Catelyn Stark certainly declares Jon Snow as a wild kidnapper, since Jon took her daughter to the north of the wall, many nobles began to see her in a better light while Jon Snow, who was once cheered in the North, is highly criticized after the kidnappings, besides many Northern houses now supporting Catelyn, the Riverlands support her in seeing the bastard as an enemy and a kidnapper, the same can be said of our hand's wife, since her niece was taken." Baelish commented calmly with a small smile.
"That's true, Robert, the nobles of the Vale take this as a very delicate matter after the amount of help requested by my wife's sister sent to whoever she could." Jon Arryn spoke, while Baelish gave a small smile, after all, he was trying to pit all the Vale's nobles against Ned's bastard son.
"But Arya Stark is better than ever, the boy's capture of the girl is a farce." Robert said.
"Yes, but many in Westeros will not think so... We have to do something, otherwise the houses of Westeros will see us as a weak power." Varys commented, giving his opinion.
'This guy hates me... but it must be something to do with my magic...' Jon thought.
"But certainly, it wouldn't be very nice to attack the fleet without a good excuse... after all, they are closing a big deal with Dorne, what kind of image would we convey if we attacked them openly?" Renly commented, trying to appear rational, after all, it's always better to have a friend than an enemy.
"They can control giants! They have wealth and goods! Think of what we can gain from this!" Cersei said.
"Do you want me to start a war with Ned's son just out of greed, woman?" Robert retorted.
"Your majesty... the crown's coffers are empty and debts are rising... getting our hands on these resources that Lord Stark's son has, could relieve us quite well from our situation." Littlefinger commented with a cunning tone.
