The Baratheon bull

Chapter 11: A new friend

Robin learnt of the incident. Gendry was scared of the little lord. The Eyrie was a seat of long known strength and The Lord of the Vale if Arryn was a person to be feared. "He was trying to take my seat, my castle, my Land. He was blackmailing my cousin Sansa. He was horrible and I knew he would have bested me. I am but a child. He ordered the death of my father. He manipulated my mother. He deserved to die." Robin screamed with tears in his eyes but suddenly he calmed down, "I am an orphan, I will always be an orphan but at least I can rule my lands without that snake on my back. Thank you Gendry." The little lord said this and bowed to his guest. "I am forever in your debt. If there is anything you desire speak now and it will be granted." He finished. Gendry thought and decided to ask for what he needed most. "My lord I will tell you something and you must understand. I am a newly made lord myself. I was a bastard of King Robert Baratheon but he legitimized me upon his death. I knew your father and he would be proud of you today. I ask my lord that you and I become allies." What the little lord said shocked him. "Yes Lord Gendry I will be your ally and I further more support your claim to the Iron throne. You are more noble then all the lords and ladies in Westeros combined. You are my friend. My allegiance is granted." Gendry was confused but something crossed his mid that had never before; Could he be king? Could he play the Game of Thrones? He bowed, left the Great hall and started walking to his chambers, pondering the lord's idea.
