[h2][color=coral]Tyrion[/color][/h2]

While his father didn’t exactly send him with a proper escort, ten men and Bronn did work to keep out of harm's way. Tyrion didn’t exactly feel safe though until he’d reached Ash Falls and then still perhaps not but that wasn’t until he’d arrived at his host's castle. He knew the Lashton’s had sided with the crown back during Robert’s Rebellion. Their loyalty to the crown now was a blessing now more than ever, to quell the insurgents rising up to take the throne. That old buzzard Ser Kayne and Renault knew nothing but victory in Robert’s Rebellion until they joined forces with the Targaryens did they taste defeat.

Looking about the town of Ash Falls seemed a little bleak and it’s people were scarce. Tyrion exhaled looking about once more and assumed the worst possibility that most of the men had been called to battle. What baffled him though is that according to his father that Renault was drawing his men slowly for an attack or unless he was attacked. He guessed the latter.

Tyrion had to admit that the Lashton’s keep was impressive even if it was nearly devoid of life. “Who goes there?” A man from the castle walls shouted down. Tyrion and Bronn looking up at the man on guard duty wondering how stupid the man was, their lion banners waving in the wind. [color=coral]”Tyrion of the House Lannister, this is my associate Bronn and the rest are men guarding me.”[/color] He heard the men talking and then nothing but silence until the gates started raising.

Tyrion, Bronn and the rest of the men guarding the dwarf walked into the castle. [color=coral]”Why isn’t Lord Lashton here to greet me directly?”[/color=coral] 

“Sorry mi lord, Lord Lashton’s town south of here was attacked. He is personally taking charge of the matter. Along with the young Lord Lashton and Ser Kayne. You go, get the ladies of the house so they may greet the king's uncle.” Telling his subordinate to go and get Lady Madeline and Lady Stelsa. So that may welcome him into their humble abode.

"If he doesn't he's more stupid than I remembered." Renault let out a small smile. "But taking that hog's head would put the both of us at ease." Renault reference to Lord Ryger's banner of a boar. But this rivalry between Ryger and Lashton was going to end. End the Ryger line if needed, hopefully, it wouldn't come to that but if it was needed then Renault wouldn't hesitate. His family and house come first. "How much fight to you still have left old buzzard?" Renault taking a small jest at Marvyn.
