Jasper
He Prepared his thing for the ride to Raventree hall, he would be staying there for the next six years, Jasper packed his clothes a dagger that he got for his ninth name day he had it from his uncle Brynden it was a fine blade with a trout head on the handle it was about 8 inches long,once he packed all his thing he dressed himself in a plain garb with the clue and red colours of his house with a leaping trout in the middle of his chest.
"ah jasper good of you to finally join us" Edmure mused as he seen Jasper walking into the courtyard he ignored his brother and walked towards his father and sisters, Lysa hugged him " I don't want you to go little brother i will miss you we all will"Jasper suddenly felt a pang of guilt he was always close to his sister her and his fathers ward Petyr he had gotten along with him a lot more than he got along with others he was the closest thing he had to a friend apart from Brynden but he lived at Raventree hall so he would see him he said his goodbyes his father said "Well no that you are leaving I'm giving you 20 knights and 10 men at arms to escort you to Raventree hall and giving you a sworn shield his name is Ser Willis Wode he came here with your ... mother" he slowly drifted away from talking about her Lady Minisa Whent she had died two years after Jasper was born being sickly ever since he was born she finally died of it it left a gaping hole in Lord Hoster's heart that nothing could fill Edmure was bitter toward him for it but no one else was they had forgiven him for it after all there was nothing he could do to stop it but Edmure had stayed bitter his entire life it only got worse so Jasper could understand why his Lord father was sending to be a ward for one of his Lords.
They rode out immediately after his father had stopped talking, he studied his sword shield he couldn't be more than 9 and 10 he had a stubble and short brown hair and a spiked morning star at his side he had a solid neck Jasper could just tell by looking at him he was tall but muscular " so are you a lord's son or nephew or what" Jasper asked Willis turned around and asked " my uncle is a lord of a small keep his son was a member of you mother honour guard when she was escorted from Harrenhal to Riverrun when she was pregnant with you i was 10 at the time i remember the bandits swarming the road hoping to take you and your lady mother for ransom i killed my first man that day he was about to kill a knight called Rogg something don't remember" he stopped talking as he got every one to stop " do you hear that he whispered Jasper listened and he heard screaming of a young girl he looked up to the sky over the trees and seen smoke " we should go check it out " he suggested " no i will check it out you stay here.
Ser Willis and 10 of the twenty knights and all of the man at arms not a minute later he heard the clashing of swords and the shouts of dying men he was to curious not to see he kicked the side of hiss pony and rode toward the sound the knights screamed for him to get back but Jasper was having none of it he was curious about the fighting he had never seen a proper fight in is life apart from tourneys but that's it and even then there had been no deaths in them he finally got to the shouts and the clanging of steel on steel he seen a burning inn a fat man lying on his stomach surrounded in blood and a girl roughly the same age as him crying by his corpse and a large bandit with a axe in hand approaching her with a look of hate in his eyes jasper then looked to his right to see Ser Willis fighting of to bandits with a arrow in his left eye he finished of one of the bandits by bashing in his face with his morningstar leaving grotesque mark on his face as he fell, Jasper got off his pony and grabbed is dagger that he packed and slowly walked to wards the bandit who was attacking the little girl he stabbed his dagger into the large bandits left thigh causing a large amount of blood to squirt out on Jasper's face the bandit squirmed in pain as he fell to his knees Jasper grabbed his dagger with two hand and brought it down onto the centre of the man's chest causing him to stop moving Jasper just realised he had just killed a man he looked at his hands they were covered in blood he didn't know what to do he was spacing out nothing seemed real anymore he started to shake until Ser Willis came over to see if he was ok Ser Willis still had an arrow in his eye he didn't seem to notice or just didn't care " Jasper" shouted until Jasper answered " i ... i...i just...killed...him" Ser Willis embraced him in a hug "shhhhh its okay it was ether you or him plus you saved that girl over there" he pointed to the girl she was still crying over the dead man Jasper could only assume it was her father he approached her " are you ok" she looked up at him her eyes filled with tears he blonde hair covered in blood "please help him please help him" she broke out in tears until the man twitched he rolled over onto his back " liiiilly" he groaned "go with them they will take you to safety" he spat up blood then stopped moving.
