small councill meeting
in the small council meeting lord hand john arryn, master of coins peter baelish, master of whispers varys, master of war randall tarly, master of laws newly appointed renly Baratheon, and grand maester pycelle is present along with the king in attendance a very rare sight for the councillors that is
"when will torhens ship get here" boomed Robert "I cant wait to meet him he added" any time now your grace replied varys. "could you be a bit more specific lord varys any time could be tomorrow," said baelish "I believe in a few hours the last raven said the were sighted near duskandale, though we may need to make some preparations, the raven stated that the ship is enormous" "how big can it possibly be" snorted pycelle "quite big my lord" varys replied "larger than any ship ever seen he added" "they also will be having a large staff," renly said "how do you know renly how big a staff it will be" asked Robert. "lord stark wrote to me some 50 servants and some 300 knights along with a thousand soldiers, he does not think the capital is safe" "ahh ned worries too much," said Robert in a cynical fashion "I am here no harm will come to his son" but your grace 1300 soldiers is equal to an army fo a minor lord will it be alright the people might be threatended or some lords as well" interjected pycelle "if the starks and tullys and the arryns had not been here the ma king would have trampeled all over them it is though lannisters they should woory about frolocking openly around here" said robert "see to thier accomodations "he added "and so hows the court working asked robert thiw took everyon by surprise, because robert never showed any interest in ruling but today he is the starks should live in the capital to keep him like this a few of them thought. "lord tywin will be arriving here in a time of 2 days" said varys "what is he coming for" asked john arryn " i am afraid i have no such information my lord hand probably some thing to do the lord stark, theyfollow the same gods afterall" this was a bit tense the starks and the lannisters now followed the same gods if they were to make partners it certainly will be good for the crown but if ti grows into animosity then it may lead to war as well, before anymore information could be discussed a letter for the king arrived by the starks it read
to his grace king Robert Baratheon
I torrhen stark would be arriving at the shores of the city soon I humbly request that you provide a safe passage in the city for the safety of my sister and the gifts sent by my father and accommodation for my 1300 companions with all due respect

4 I must not use my geass, while in the city I must be accompanied by at least 10 knights
5 I must follow southern manners, as respect for the southerners
6 I must be the one to offer the diamond to the queen

at the bay renly baratheon was standing with some 2000 of the city watch waiting starks their ship was enormous hence they had to come down on a smaller boat and then make their way here, but even that boat was large, very large for it was carrying Sansa starks carriage soon the boat arrived and some 300 knights disembarked first and made a protective boundary around before the starks came down. once all preparations were done torhen came down dressed in all a black coat and a red tie, he was escorting his sister Sansa stark, she had worn a blue dress which suited her auburn hair after them came 2 maids and what looked like a female knight they stood behind Sansa, after them came two knights one had a flat face but tall and lean, the other one was large, larger than the mountain himself and carried a great sword, he must be the sir guts Robert and everyone talked about who killed 200 people alone on the Pyke. at the end came another person dresses in black he was a servant as well with glasses. but now was not the time to ponder it was to greet the guests so renly stepped forward, lord torhen it is a pleasure to have you here" said renly the pleasure is all mine my lord" torhen said "was the journey fair to you" renly asked "to me it was, not so much to my sister, I am afraid but it appears that seas are not for her"replied torhen renly looked at Sansa who did look exhausted and said "then we must move the keep the young lady might want to rest" i agree my lord please lead the way
