LORTON CASTLE
Lurs: Lord Finn?
Finn is walking down a corridor when he turns seeing Lurs approaching him
Lurs: There's been a rave sent.
He holds out a scroll. Finn takes it and unfolds it, reading it, his face falls in shock and horror
Finn: Zane Moreland has been slain.
Lurs: Aegon's army departed King's Landing a fortnight ago. The castles of Rosby and Stokeworth have both fallen without siege.
They begin walking down the corridor, making their way down a flight of stairs.
Lurs: They have raised Aegon's banner and added their levies to Ser Criston Cole's host. Ser Adrian sent a rider last night to inform you, your bannermen rides with Lord Alon and Lord Jarden's bannermen.
Finn: Clearly they used the lie that Rhaneyra had a hand in the Prince's murder.
Lurs: Yes, my lord. Ser Criston's Army, now tripled in strength, might have Lortan as its destination.
Finn: No, their target is Harrenhal.
Lurs: Even if you raised a host of Rivermen, they will not be ready in time to face him.
Finn turns his head and frowns in confusion seeing a black goat in the center of the room.
Finn: What I am doing here is important. The truth must be brought to the light of day and those guilty will answer for their crimes.
RIVERLANDS-GASTON/ASHWOOD/MIKAELSON WAR CAMP
Alon is standing around the table speaking with his advisors. Jarden, Arton, Aiden, Arlen, Daario, Nira, Jessor, and Clara are standing around the table. Clara has a broken sad look in her eyes.
Jarden: Aegon's army departed King's Landing a fortnight ago. The castles of Rosby and Stokeworth have both fallen without siege.
Aiden: They raised his banners without siege and added their levies to Criston Cole's host. His army has tripled in size.
Arlen grabs the Riverlands figurine and slams it down over the Harrenhall is their destination.
Aiden: Even if they raised up a host of Rivermen, they will not be ready to face him.
Alon: What news of House Tully? Lord Grover?
Arlen: Our scouts reported Oscar Tully heading to Harrenhall to meet with Daemon.
Clara: He's willing to bargin with House Tully to ensure their levies for Rhaenyra.
Jarden nods his head
Jarden: That is the assumption, my lady.
Alon sighs placing his hands on the table
Alon: Has Lord Elijah been informed of Zane's death?
Tears begin brimming in Clara's eyes while Daario looks down clenching his hands into fists. Nira and Arlen glances at him worriedly
Arton: He has been informed, my lord and he is making the journey to Backton's Keep as we speak.
Alon: Good. Kiera and Alessa will need him more then ever.
Jarden: Daemon will most likely use any method he can to ensure Ser Oscar pledges House Tully's levies for Rhaenyra. He knows he needs an army.
Daario: And if Oscar Tully is no use to Daemon, he will see he is no use to him.
Alon: Who in the Riverlands pledged to fight for Aegon?
