[QUOTE="Starman, post: 2663775, member: 7663"] Karrwin Stark was quiet and kept to himself during most of the trip south. His thoughts were on his father's words and his coming task. He was excited that he finally had a task, something to do, something important. At the same time, he realized the dreadful importance of what he was about. If war truly might break out, then it was critical he make sure his father was aware of what was going on and could be prepared. He thought, too, of the look his half-brother, Artos, had given him when his father had spoken to him. It was clear that Artos disapproved of Karrwin doing this. No doubt he was jealous. Well, that was too bad, Karrwin thought. He is the heir and has always been given the highest honor. [I]Now it's my turn[/I]. He liked his brother and did not think ill of him. They had just never got along well. Karrwin was still a bit shocked over his father's words that Eon, Maester Garth, and Septon Altain felt he was a capable leader. No one had ever told him that before. He enjoyed the tasks that came with leadership and it seemed to come easy to him, however he did not think that it was anything to be noticed by his mentors. Whatever they thought, this was his chance to [I]do [/I]something and he was determined to do it right. The spectacle of the tournament grounds does little to impress Karrwin. He had been to a grand tournament before and he held the Stark view of tournaments. War is not a game. Not to mention, his incident with Viserys Targaryen did not give him fond memories from the previous tourney. He walked around the grounds given to the Starks, chatting briefly with his men here, helping to drive in a tent stake there. "Yes, southroners and their titles and forms of address. It is an obsession with them." Karrwin shakes his head. Karrwin claps Brandon on the back. "Of course, you may enter. You should enter as well, Eon. As for myself, I am not sure. I am no knight to be tilting in tournaments. Besides, I may learn more by observing from the sidelines." Karrwin puts his hand on his chin, stroking his thin shadow of a beard. "If the other Lords seem to make an issue of me not joining the jousting, I may, [I]may[/I], enter the melee. I would be much more comfortable there. I would prefer not to do that, though. Eon, a word with you please." He gestures the large man aside for privacy. Karrwin walks as they talk. "Have some of your men that you trust spend some time mingling with the other guardsmen. I want to know what the talk amonst the smallfolk is. I will have to try and talk to the other Lords and play their game to find out what is happening in King's Landing." [/QUOTE]
