"He should have buried me, not all the way around" said Joseth while resisting to burst in tears in front of the other men, "It's war Joe, shit happens when kings play the game of thrones" said Barlan, "revenge, glory, that is what we were promised, if we fought for the ki… the Shit in the North, but all I got was, an arrow to the eye, and my son sliced from head to feet".
At midnight, Joe was tidying up his belongings onto his horse, that's when Barlan emerged from the darkness. "What are you doing?" asked Barlan. "How old am I Barlan?".
"Four and fifty".
"Four and fucking fifty, and yet I am bossed around by a babe calling himself the King in the North, walking around like he owns the place, just because he is a Stark, well not anymore for me I am departing this shithole".
"And where in seven hells is that where you're leaving Joseth".
"Who the fuck knows, … I shall head wherever I desire to go, no more following, it is time for me to become the king of my own self, and don't try to stop me Barlan".
"Joseth, you are my brother, yes we did not share a womb, but shit, we shared blood in the battlefield for years, and as far as I know, blood is thicker than water in the womb, this idea of yours sounds like a thing I'd like to sign up for".
"Let's depart then, brother".
When the horses were ready, Joe told Barlan to wait, that he had to do something before their departure, Joe walked to the woods, where he found the thickest tree on his sight, that is where he snuck behind, dropped his pants, crouched and began to defecate, after he was finished, with a small shovel he picked the big turd, and put it on a box.
He walked to Robb's tent sneaking, making sure he was not watched, he peaked into the tent, it was empty, as he entered, he placed the box to the main desk, that is where he heard a noise, it was some woman he couldn't recall her name, she was asleep, Joe was relieved, he then turned and picked a paper, quill, and feather, and wrote a message, "For our grace, the great King of the North", put the note on top of the box and silently left the tent, as he was walking away, Robb entered the tent, a few seconds later, Robb yelled "The fuck is the meaning of this shit".
