Evelyn-

I stood on the other side of the stockade, watching Jaime Lannister. Questioning why I was here. Answers, maybe?

I had one of the men unlock the door, as I stepped through. Then the Kingslayer finally took notice of me.

"Ah, bastard. Why have you paid me a visit on this fine evening?" he says, sarcastically.

"Ooo, you do have a sharp tongue." I tell him. "Too bad men around here don't appreciate that from their prisoner." 

"What, are you here just to taunt me?" he asks. 

"Maybe. Or I'm here for some answers." I ask him. "Like what went through your head when you pushed my brother through that tower."

Lady Stark had a conversation with Ser Jaime only days earlier similar to ours now. I was told he confessed to pushing Bran through the window of that tower.

"I was hoping the fall would kill him."

"But why?" I ask him. "Because he saw you with your sister? You've heard the rumors as much as I, Lannister." 

"Either way, you wouldn't like what I say." he tells me. "Might as well kill me now."

I didn't know what to do after that. So I just left, having the man lock the gate up.

"I offer your cousins peace, if he meets my terms." my brother says to a Lannister. "First, they'll release my sisters and deliver my fathers bones back to us so he can rest alongside his family in the crypts of Winterfell. Second, ones who died in the service will also be returned so their families can offer them with proper funerals."

"An honorable request, your grace."

"Third, the Queen reagent and King Joffrey will renounce all claim to dominion of the North. From this point on, the North will become its own independent kingdom. If Joffrey or his men disobey this, they shall suffer the same fate as my father." Robb finishes. "Except, I don't need a servent to do my beheading."

"The King in the North." men in the room echo.

"But, your grace-"

"These are my terms. If Joffrey and the Queen reagent meet them, I'll give them peace. And if not, I'll litter the South with Lannister dead." 

"King Joffrey is a Baratheon, your grace." the Lannister says.

"Oh, is he?" Robb raises an eyebrow.

By now, its become apparent. Queen Cersei's children were not King Roberts. Born of incest, her children were fully Lannisters.
