The Hymn of Hot and Cold [Concluded]

It was a magnificent sunset, the setting sun reflected off Blackwater bay causing the last rays of the evening to light to shine into the King Hall, illuminating the Ferrous Stool. The Hand of the Kingmorgan sat on the stool surveying the assortment of noble families and minor Lords, Ladies and the usual social climbers that typically hang around court.

The Family Stark was quiet and subdued, most probably the slaying of Arya daughter to Lord Stark was cause of this or perhaps the accusations of treason against Lord Stark, he'd had a strange dream during his troubled afternoon nap. It seemed so real he thought, did it really happen or was it a taste of an event still to come. No doubt those pesky Lannisters were behind it, something had to be done about them and soon he mused.

Ceresi Lannsiter was casing sly looks at her brother Jamie, she remembered their afternoon of forbidden fun, they would have to be careful she thought, all eyes should be on prize – nothing could distract them from taking the Stool for themselves, they could rule together as King and Queen.

The Hand of the Kingmorgan spoke, directing his question at Twyin “ What say you Lord Twyin? Have you made progress in the hunt for the brotherhood? Have you discovered a traitor to the realm?” Tywin addressed the Hand with a little more respect today, he had been shocked at the outcome of yesterdays gathering not thinking the Hand would lynch a Lord of the Realm “My Lord Hand, investigations have been made and we believe spaceman98 to be a brotherhood member and directly responsibility for the attack on the King, It is your duty to lynch him”
“Duty, responsibility?!!” Exclaimed the Hand “You are a Lord of the seven Kingdoms and a protector of the realm are you not? You have armies and spies and you speak to me of duty?” The Hand was almost besides himself with anger “You have failed in you duty to protect the King, do not forget that Lannister”

“Bring forward the accused” Shouted the Hand. The Kingsguard brought forward the unfortunate victim.

“Excuse me your Handness” piped up young Podrick “Some of us believe that Edse is the guilty party, we have evidence that he is equally guilty, we would very much like him lynched” Young Podrick coloured red like a beetroot as if he could not believe how bold he had been.
“Yes, good point Podrick” said the Hand “Good to see you have some manners and even some learning unlike that new chap Daird who seems to be rather colourblind”

The Hand took moment to consider the options, the day had been rather confusing a clear contender for the interrogations had been identified, but now he had two suspects , what to do with them?
“Goldcoats, bring forward the 2 prisoners, give them a sword each. On my mark they may fight, we'll have ourselves a good ol' fashioned deathmatch, last one standing is innocent and will be released”
Lord Eddard Stark was troubled, but he had to fight for his life, his opponent was no match for him, he was determined to make it quick and not prolong his adversaries suffering, once quick decapitation and it would all be over. His duelling partner was calm and collected seeming accepting their fate, a small smile could be seen as the killing blow was struck.

As the sword swung a shadow was cast around the room, a shape darted from the edge of the room, Lord Stark looked on in amazement as

Spoiler :
A dragon rose from the sideline and engulfed Eddard Stark in a plasma like jet of fire, burning him to fiery crisp.

Edse was Lord Eddard Stark.

It is now Night. Morning in [TIMER="3/3/2014 11:00 PM GMT"][/TIMER] Orders to the GM please.
 
Dawn day 3​

T'was a dark night in Queens Entry, the clouds were scuttling across the sky in rapid fashion, the moon was shining an intermittent light upon the city causing dark shadows in the alleys and lanes. A few were taking advantage of the situation conducting various business and trade within the temporary darkness. The Hound was striding confidentially along the thoroughfare, his confident gait was observed by an interested party. The watcher knew where the Hound was headed and decided to take a short cut in order to meet the scarred warrior head on.

The Hound knew he was being followed and anticipated the ambush, the attackers steel was met with steel and fierce battle ensued. The sparks of the two swords clashing lit up the night, the flashes illuminating the shadows like an artificial lightning. The Hound began to tire, a large man, he was use to quickly overpowering his opponents with brute force and slashing strokes that always pressed the defender to the limit. He thought to himself that his opponent was one of the best swordsman he had ever faced. He thrust mighty the sword passing his sparring partners guard, his foot slipped in some unfortunately deposited dog turd, the killing blow slicing his opponents arm rather than penetrating the heart. The opposing swordsman quickly dealt a killing blow and the Hound was down. The swordsman ran, his task accomplished.

Spoiler :
The Hound was seriously injured by the swordsman


Later that night.
Sandor Clegane dragged himself up, He knew he had to return to his rooms and soon. As he was lurching down the alley two black shadows seemed to emerge from the wall, Sandor blinked what devilry was this? Two shadow swords converged at his throat severing his head neatly from his body. Sandor died a warrior, he'd beaten the swordsman but was felled by the shadow. The Brotherhood claimed another victim.

Spoiler :
Sandor Clegane known as "The Hound" was Sprig

Myself, as I need an emerald for my item and was actually in negotiations for his.
Zack
It's obvious we've got a joker in the deck. Would be surprised if it ain't Joffrey.
 
Who you referring to with that spoiler from the books? I'm the biggest ASIOAF nerd out there and I'm drawing a blank.

The Hound is still alive


Anyways enough from me, Good luck all.
 
He's very low on my radar and while he has the glasses, I think they might just be a scanning power. Would make sense. Still, I'd like a public confirmation from him.
 
I, personally, would like that sword. Doesn't mater about the emerald, but if anyone has an opal, message me.

Vote: spaceman, I personally find him a bit suspicious still.
 
I can use that Emerald, though I really don't know exactly how useful it is.
 
I'm not particularly happy with either Zack or SamSniped getting the sword. Both got items on day 1, I'd rather spread the power to prevent any faction getting too powerful.

Sounds like Jaime Lannister duked it out with Clegane first before the Brotherhood finished him off. I'd be fairly confident the he'd be a vig.

Based on the wording you're probably right, on second thought, but it still doesn't give us anything to go on. Could be Brienne, too.
