[QUOTE="Maester Luwin, post: 2588497, member: 23259"] [b][PLAIN][Actual Play AGoT] Swords of the North! Updated 9/18/05[/PLAIN][/b] Hey everyone! Here is session 2 part 3. Lorrick Poole walked with a quick step through the nearly empty halls of the First Keep. He was already a busy man seeing to the Lists for the joust, planning the menu for the feast, & making sure that all visiting nobles, both of the south & the north, were comfortable within Winterfell’s walls. Naturally he was annoyed by Maester Pelion’s request to seek out the Wildling woman Helga & escort her to the library. The Karstark’s maester had some news for her. ‘What could a maester want to tell a savage anyway’ thought Winterfell’s steward. Alas he spotted her! “Mistress Helga Maester Quelion has need of you & asked me to escort you to the library” Lorrick said.
