Game of Thrones: Golden Ice

The Twins

The Twins, the ancient home of the Frey's. Now the Golden Company stages their many elephants and infantry in the camps they set around the towers and on the great bridge. Many fires rage and whores and beers flow from solider to solider. Darnis would go into the throne room of the Twins but every room of the ghost castle has corpses and blood dripping from the walls, so naturally they avoid the castle and set up the main tent just outside at the gateway for the bridge.

The camp roars with more activity than at the red wedding. Three outsiders enter the thick valley of gold. Jorah, Brianne and Messandei enter. They are relaxed and calm even though they just entered the den of golden devils. Every step closer to the main tent seems like a step further from safety. Finally they reach the tent of Darnis Rok.

They enter the tent, the powerful smell of meat and beef hits the travelling court. Darnis sits at the very back of the tent facing the door, in front of him on a silver platter we're vegetables meats all manner of foods that the survivors hasn't seen in months since winter came. One side of the room had a roaring fire in a cauldron and on the other side a lavish velvet bed perfectly made. In the centre of the room a large square table with a map of all Westeros on top it had flags and little figures on it similar to the war table at Dragonsreach. Jorah noticed something on the table but before he could realise what Messandei began talking. "Greatings from Daenerys Stormborn, the unburnt, Queen of Meeren, Breaker of chai..."
"Good god shut the fuck up!" Darnis snapped "Jorah, sit down". Jorah had travel a wide stretch of Easteros crossing past with many foes, and friends. "Darnis, it's a pleasure to see you my friend." Jorah and Darnis laughed as he sat opposing Darnis whilst Brianne stayed back and Meesandei awkwardly stood still after being cut off earlier.

"I trust you have been well?" Jorah asked, Darnis replied "Very well, I've killed many a foe since last we met and the golden company has increased as you probably saw". "Oh yes I did Darnis, very impressive it's a shame your working for the wrong side, we were under the impression you fight for Cersi and she fights in the Great War, however Jamie Lanister tells us over wise, turns out you betray you honour too" "Work is work and the leader of the golden company loves gold, besides last I saw you were spying of the bitch you now serve" "Easy now Darnis we are both on the same side here" "Bullshit I serve one queen you serve another and how exactly are we on the same side?" "We are on the side of the living!" Brianne quickly responded "the words of the golden company are 'our words are as good as gold' I heard stories of an honourable leader of the Golden Company not a mercenary who only fights for gold!" "Easy Brianne" Jorah tried to remind Brianne of the current situation. Darnis sat in silence for a few seconds staring at Brianne, contemplating all that she said and all the stories they heard of the army of the dead and if the wisest decision was to march north to fight two armies rather than one. "I may fight for gold, woman, but don't think for one second I have none over wise you will feel my honour slicing through your chest" "forgive me" Brianne says "But we fight in the Great War not a simple game of thrones we fight for all men not just the ones whom Cersi deals fit to live". Darnis again waiting till he responded before turning back to his friend "Jorah" he announced rather abruptly "Did you notice our cavalry outside?" Jorah paused as he is confused by the question "The elephants yes quite impre.." "No no no" Darnis interrupts them "Our horses?" "There were no Horses outside" Messandei adds. "Very right you are my fair lady" he smiles and gets up from the table he walks up to Messandei and goes behind her he puts one arm on her shoulder and the other points towards the table with the map. "You see that there?" He points on the map to twins "that's where we are and you see all my soldiers and Elephants yes? And you see over here" he now points closer to Winterfell we're a golden horse figure is rested "that is where my brother is and also my entire Calvary, one days march from Winterfell" Jorah and Brianne spring towards the table "The Dothraki have ridden for many days and night and are exhausted they are a days away from the twins and four days from Winterfell, the threat beyond the wall is fake it's rubbish but the golden threat is real and heading north" "Darnis you fool!" Jorah lunges coward and grabs Darnis' neck "you've doomed us all you fool". Darnis stares in Jorah's eyes "Even if I wanted to I couldn't call them back they will attack no matter and Cersi will have Winterfell, I'm sorry my friend but this is War, you've saved my life before so I'll let you and your beautiful friends leave but come back and I'll kill you".

"Your a fucking fool" Jorah shouts with his back turned to Darnis leaving his tent followed my Brianne and Messandei "What do we do?" Brianne asks Jorah "We ride for Winterfell they are a days march away if we ride fast and hard we should get there before then these are Dothraki horses faster than any other we need to warn the others before they are killed before the war even begins"

"Yah yah" the three ride for the north as Darnis looks onwards wondering if the Dead threat is real and worried for his brothers safety.
