Emily needed to be carful, she didn't just waste two of her silver coins, and jump in pig shit for nothing. The group of guards had split up so this was her opening. She walked out from behind the stables and headed towards the gate when she heard a deep voice call from behind her," hey, you boy!"

Fuck.

Emily turned around, the voice had come from King Robb, he was very frantic and alerted, but he didn't recognize her.

"Have you seen Lady Castor, she harmed a few of our guards and is on the run?"

Emily replied in a deeper voice," no, sorry to say I haven't, but I will surely look out for her."
King Robb just nodded his head, but was looking at her skeptically, then he walked away.

As soon as he was out of her sight, she sprinted for the woods outside the gate. Emily knew of the small farms outside Fort Castor, and she headed for the nearest one with horses. Emily was running through the trees for about five minutes when she came to the farm.

She entered the large barn that smelled of manure and dirt. She saw three horses in there stables. One horse was black, the other was brown, and the other one was a light tan. Emily said to her self," well of course I'm going for the black."

The horse was wary of her, but she forced him out the stable, and saddled him up. She guided him out the barn and into the dark night. The ride would take at least a week until she reached The Nights Watch.

She and her horse rode for about two hours until they came to a market place. There were only a few people out since it was early in the morning. The fog just started to rise, and the dew was taking form on the grass. At the market she bought bread, carrots, and apples for her journey. She also bought a thick fur coat and proper boots.

Emily was glad she was free of her sewing and chores, she also hadn't forgotten about Winter, her special sword. Emily was scared for the journey ahead, but she had all she needed and a road to follow in front of her.
