A short time ago, you had heard that a wedding had taken place between Lord Edmure Tully of Riverrun and Roslin Frey, daughter of Lord Walder Frey. It was meant to renew an alliance between Robb Stark, the alleged King of the North, and House Frey. However, just as the wedding was being consummated, the Freys had turned on and murdered King Robb and his loyal bannermen, violating the sacred guest right. You had heard rumors that House Bolton and House Lannister had been complicit in this abominable act.
This deception may have ended the War of the Five Kings, but it had also succeeded in earning House Frey the ire of every respectable house in the Seven Kingdoms. As a native of the Riverlands, you are outraged by this gross misconduct, as well. Just the thought of it infuriates you.
"If the gods are real, they will punish those treacherous weasels for their atrocities," you think aloud, though Aerion is the only one who can hear you.
That is another reason why you wish to leave your homeland. You have no desire to live in a region ruled by House Frey. The idea alone makes you sick.
At any rate, you proceed to ride north. You make good time, and you hardly see another person all day. When night falls, you decide to make camp along the Trident. You should be able to reach the North within a week's time.
