The streets of King's Landing was filled to the brim with people running around the streets since the sun started to rise. The salesmen already started setting up their stands, some went down to the sea for their fishing duties, some were just now finding their way back home after spending the night at a pub.

Everyone had their own duty to fulfill in this world. The people who weren't of noble blood had it the worst, they were the ones left to fend for themselves. Nothing was ever given to them so they had to work hard to even have bread on their table.

Many people went out into the forest surrounding the city to hunt for animals that could give them the amount of meat to survive. In the morning a bigger group used to go out with a carrige and many dogs. They were full of elder men to young boys of the age of four.

"What do you like to use to hunt?" A young boy named Edd asked to children sitting in the back of the carriage.

A brown haired boy, the eldest of the group, motioned to the weapon beside him. "I like to use the bow and arrow, it can kill from a long distance."

"I use a spear."

"My favourite is the sword."

"Bow."

The young boys then turned to the other child sitting with them. He hasn't said a word the entire way so far and barely even moved. The clothes he wore were a bit dirty and seemed a bit big on his body with holes in them. A hood covered his head so the only thing they could see was the piercing blue eyes that followed their every move.

The eldest boy looked at the younger child with a questioning gaze, not understaning why he was not answering. "What about you, boy? What do you like to hunt with?"

The child lifted his head and a small chuckle escaped his lips. "I use daggers and I am not a boy."

The five boys looked at the sixth member in confusion.

"What, you want us to believe you are a girl? A girl has no place at a hunt." One of them laughed as the others joined.

Suddenly he shut his mouth immediately when a piece of metal embedded itself beside his neck taking a piece of his cloak with it. The five boys stared in disbelief as the young girl tucked her hand back away under her cloak. The boy still fearing for his life after almost getting a dagger though the neck let out a scoff and tried to pull the weapon out of the wood behind him. Only he couldn't, even with two hands, so the boy sitting next to him tried to help him aswell.
