Brian had carved two daggers out of dragonglass for himself and Stewie. Now the two of them were preparing to leave for Eastwatch, saying goodbye to Meg, Dany and Tyrion.
"A man called Davos Seaworth should be coming here soon to collect the rest of the dragonglass and bring it back to Winterfell," Stewie told Dany.
"All right, we'll be looking out for him," said Dany. "I hope your mission is successful."
"If it isn't, at least you won't have to deal with the king in the north anymore," said Brian.
Dany smiled. "That'd be a shame. I've grown used to him."
Brian and Stewie pressed the buttons on their teleporters and were gone in a flash.
Dany turned to Tyrion. "I'm glad you're not a hero."
"Why's that?" he said.
"Because heroes have a tendency of risking their lives to do dangerous things. Khal Drogo, Ser Jorah Mormont, Brian Griffin. They all do stupid things, trying to outdo the others."
"And all those people you mentioned were in love with you," Tyrion noted wryly.
Dany scoffed. "You think Brian's in love with me? That's ridiculous!"
"Oh, yes, forgive me," Tyrion said. "He must be staring so longingly at you because he's eager for a military alliance."
"I have to admit, I've noticed him staring at you too," Meg put in.
Dany was quiet for a moment. Then she said, "I wonder if Brian will need help capturing a wight…"

Tormund Giantsbane was standing in the dining hall of Eastwatch when Brian and Stewie suddenly appeared in front of him. Taken aback, he jumped into the air, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Har!" he exclaimed. "Brian Griffin! You nearly made me piss my pants. Well, what brings you here?"
Brian explained the nature of their mission. "We need to capture a wight so we can convince King Joffrey of the threat they pose to Westeros."
"You're not the only ones who came up with that idea," Tormund said dryly.
"What do you mean?" Brian asked.
Just then, who should walk in but Lois! "Brian? Is that you?" she cried.
"Lois!" Brian exclaimed.
"Mom!" said Stewie.
Lois ran to Stewie, lifted him out of his wheelchair, and squeezed him tight. "Oh, my little Stewie! I can't believe you're alive! I never thought I'd see you again!"
Five more people came into the room behind Lois: Thoros of Myr, Sandor Clegane, Hayley, Jeff, and Gendry.
"What are you all doing here?" Brian asked.
"We're here for a reason," said Thoros. "We are part of something larger than ourselves."
"That's right," said Lois. "There are cold winds risin' in the north, and we're gonna try an' stop 'em."
"That's why we're here too!" Brian said excitedly. "To stop the White Walkers! Stewie, Meg, and I have joined up with Daenerys Targaryen. We had the idea of capturing a wight and taking him to King's Landing to show Joffrey. Then, maybe he'll cooperate with us against the common enemy."
"Hmm, I dunno about that," said Lois. "Joffrey's last name may be Baratheon, but he's a Lannister through and through, and we all know Lannisters can't be trusted."
"Not all the Lannisters are bad," Stewie said. "I consider Tyrion a friend."
"It was the Lannisters who sent that guy to try to kill ya with a knife!" Lois snapped.
"No, it wasn't," said Stewie. "That was Glen Quagmire." He had learned this from one of his visions.
Lois gaped. "How could ya possibly know that?"
"I know lots of things now," Stewie said calmly. "I'm the three eyed raven."
"What does that mean?" Lois asked.
"I just have to press my hand against a heart tree and I can see into the past, the present, and the future. Places, faces, happenings, and all manner of things run in and out of my head, like bees in and out of hives."
As a demonstration of his new skills, he proceeded to describe the Red Wedding, where Chris had met his end, in minute detail. Lois listened, tears stirring in her eyes at the reemerging memories. She had to admit that Stewie was able to recount the bloody event as if he had been there himself, even though she knew for a fact he hadn't been.
"Wow," she said when he finally fell silent. "You've grown up so much, Stewie. I'm sorry I wasn't there to see it. I'm sorry I wasn't there for ya when ya needed me."
"You were where you needed to be," Stewie stated simply.
