At the hollow hill, what you said about being King Robert's men, and brothers, I liked that. I liked that you gave the Hound a trial. Lord Bolton just hanged folk or took off their heads, and Lord Tywin and Ser Amory were the same.

"Oy, Kem! Hurry up!" Gendry shouted.

Even though Kem was older and taller than Gendry, he had trouble keeping up with the four-year old boy. "Aye. I'm coming, I'm coming!"

There wasn't much luxuries in King's Landing. But once there was word of a puppeteer coming by to do a show for the children, he couldn't wait to see it. He, Urreg, and Gerren ran toward the space.

He had never felt excited for anything else in his life. It all looked beautiful. The scenery was beautifully painted and depicted with clouds, bursts of sunlight with small buildings.

"... unhand her this instant!" said the puppet knight.

The other puppet that began to move and talk unnerved him a bit. "She dare! She dare mock the dragon!"

"Unhand the maiden!"

"She will pay for her insolence!"

The two puppets looked so alive and filled with vigor. It didn't look or feel like a puppet show. Gendry had felt so entranced by it.

"... and so, the brave Ser Duncan the Tall hath made the mighty Aerion Brightflame, a dragon, yield. A young humble man who hailed from Flea Bottom. Thick-headed as a castle wall, and taller than any man alive. He had risen high, and become the Commander of the Kingsguard."

"Wooww!" Gendry sighed in awe. That was it. That is what he is meant to be. I will swear before the eyes of gods and men to defend those who cannot defend themselves, to protect all women and children, to fight bravely when needed and do such other tasks as are laid upon me, however hard or humble or dangerous they may be.

"What? You thinking of being a knight, Gendry?" Urreg mocked.

"Shut up, Urri!" Gerren said. "Any man can rise high. Bastards have even rose to be Commanders of the Night's Watch!"

"Right! Cuz people want to command an army of thievers and rapers!"

"People can rise as high and low. Any man can be a knight, but it takes someone true like men of the Kingsguard to stay true"

Ser Gendry the Grey? No.

Ser Gendry the Good? No, that doesn't sound right.

The Bonebreaker? Sounds scary rather than gallant. Gendry the Gallant was too obvious.

Ser Gendry the Giant. Near perfect.
