[QUOTE="Widowmaker, post: 3121240, member: 23050"] Spring is finally ending it has been little over a year since the last snow and the lands have started to dry out, finally. Winter is gone and summer has arrived. The fields have been prepared and soon it will be time to plant the seeds of life. And not a minute to soon. The storeroom's at Summerhall have almost been depleted. While the last winter was short, it took a toll on many unprepared. ~ ~ ~ About three days ago word was recieved in Summerhall that a bandit uprising was take place north of the old castle. 'Self-proclaimed Lord' Aaron Caron could not be bother to attend to such trivial matters. It finally took the coaxing of Ser Bryn Morrigen, Caron's friend, and Ser Paul Wensington, leader of the outriders, to push Aaron Caron to ride north. Even then Caron demanded to have a baggage train of large proportions. Ser Paul tried to have Caron mount only a light expedition with a quick force. But Caron refused and even demanded that nearly 3/4 of the 'Outriders' accompany him. It took a whole day for Caron to prepare. And then under a cool miserable rainy day Caron refused to go, saying he 'would not ride in the rain'. When the sun finally came out on the third day, half way through the day, Caron ride out imagining himself the champion of Summerhall. Most of the people at Summerhall ingnored him as he left but a few watched. To many people's suprise a few hours later Osric Steadfast arrived with a contingent of men on foot and a patch of other people behind. At first the guards loyal to Caron refused to open the gates. But upon seeing there were still loyal people and soldiers inside Summerhall they opened the gate. Most surrendered to the Steadfast loyalist, but a few made it out before they could be rounded up. An assembly was called in the makeshift 'Great' Room of the Summerhall. While neither Great not dismal, the Great Room in reality is the main/dining hall at the castle. Off to oneside is a raised platform where a well crafted oak chair sits. The chair was a gift from King Robert Baratheon when Ser Simon was raised to Lord of Summerhall. The chair is unique in the fact that it is made from a Black Oak tree, very rare and only known to grow in the King's Wood. Above the chair hanging on the wall are two shields one with the Sigil of House Steadfast, sitting next to it is a shield of House Caron. Two banners also hang from the ceiling again one of House Steadfast and one of House Caron. As the assembled house, servants, and guards gather in the hall Ser Harrick Grove, the grizzled old Master of Arms, walks halfway up the stairs and turns "All Hail! Osric Steadfast, Lord of Summerhall and our true Lord!" The crowd breaks and Osric walks out and stands upon the dias. Septon Sarah, the beautiful Septon of House Steadfst, walks out. She preforms a brief ceremony swearing Osric as Lord and Protector of House Steadfast. The assembled house is dismissed. All that is left are those asked to stay. Those being Lord Osric, his bastard brother Jonas Sand, Maester Harwyn, Ser Harrick Grove and his granddaughter Viviene, Septa Sarah, Ser Rickard Sharpe, Ser Allister, and Ser Tirron Bright a new hedge knight in service to House Steadfast. Standing in the back of the room is a short musclar man with a scar running up and down the left side of his face, his left eye has turned pure white from the wound, some know him as Aleksyndr Sand, a mercenary captain. When the others have left, Ser Allister makes a small fire. Ser Rickard brings out a few bottles of wine and passes them around, along with mugs. Ser Harrick finally speaks "What is the order of business?" he states looking around to the assembled group. [/QUOTE]
