Another shorter chapter, but I have gotten a lot done on this Story this week because we had two snow days this week. (I work at an elementary school.) Anywho I hope you are enjoying the story, this might be a smaller chapter but we are building up to something big. A lot of drama is yet to come for Robb since right now he has had pretty smooth sailing it would just not be game of thrones if something didn't come along to mess him up. :) Please let me know what you think in the comments.

"Right now, the Stark men stand in between Tywin and the capital. He won't be able to send troops when we invade." Ser Davos told his king ever so faithfully.
"Finally, the Stark boy is being more then a nuisance, we take him down after the Lannister's what of it? " Stannis asked impatient as ever.
"He's moving his troops or so say our spies."
"So, he isn't as useful as we thought, still, we can take the city before Tywin gets to us."
"My king, they will know we are coming, and Tywin will realize if he reasons with Robb Stark not only will he be able to get to us, the Stark Tyrell men are enough to make a difference."
Stannis throw one of his wolf pieces. "Damn boy can't get in line like his father!"
Davos continued. "He will give the Stark his sisters, his fathers bone and sword…. he may even give him the north."
"MY NORTH! No!"
"Let us make peace with the Starks before Tywin can, you can't promise his sisters are safe or his father's bones, but you can promise that if he fights with us you will give him the North, your word means much more than a Lannister's."
"I would rather cut my arm off then give that boy the North."
"Write him Stannis, Tywin will be." Davos reminded him.
"What do you think?" Stannis ask Melisandre who starred into the flames.
"I see much of this prince of ice, he is hidden from the fire."
"He is a usurper!" Stannis said annoyed, but she didn't turn from the fire.
"I am talking of the Usurpers son, he rests in a southern girl's stomach but someday, someday the boy will bring the faith of his father to the iron throne, no he cannot be allowed to grow into a man."
"Now she talks of killing babes in their mother's stomach, you once told me you respected Ned Stark and wanted his respect in turn, what would Eddard Stark say to murdering a babe?!"
"Eddard Stark is dead, the boy should be careful, or he could follow his father down that dark path, I am the true king, I will write the boy, I will tell him to bend the knee or I will kill him and his son, marry his eldest brother to Shireen and bring the north to heel."
"Your grace-"Davos started.
"I've made up my mind, write the boy and let me sign it." Stannis said.
Soon Robb would find himself with four raven scrolls that would change his life forever. One from Tywin Lannister, one from Stannis Baratheon, one with news of Winterfell, and the last he would have to wait a little longer for, from his grandfather's bannerman, Lord Walder Frey. An invitation no less.
