A Missive to House Svea

[Triyun]

A raven would arrive at the House of Lord Svea.

 

Lady Illiya Svea,

 

Good tidings from Casterley Rock, I write to you on behalf of my brother the Good King Tygett.  He has instructed me to invite you to Casterley Rock to enjoy hospitality and consider friendship with House Draco.  We would like to propose a friendship between our house and possibly a joining of our two Houses for he good of the realm.

 

Sincerely,

 

Godwin Dracon, Steward of Casterley Rock

"Well, I wasn't doing anything anyway...", mused Lady Svea to herself. Whilst there was a board of "councillors" to attend to her domain whilst she was away, there was very little to actually do and their efforts were more symbolic than important. As she called for her entourage knights that would travel with her, she began writing a letter in response.

Ser Dracon,

Thank you for your kind invitation. It would be an honour to spend time in Casterly Rock alongside House Draco, and I shall be making my way momentarily. I'm sure we have many matters to discuss.

Yours,

Illya vi Svea, Keeper of Rainwood

Strapping her sword to her belt and looping her bow over her body, she stepped out into the courtyard and sat atop her horse. Arranged in a diamond around her were fifteen of Rainwood's finest knights - some with armour that shone and glittered in the beating sunlight, whilst others in a more sombre and serious armour that had seen its fare share of conflict. Of course, it had not been conflict that House Svea had participated in. Rather, soldiers throughout Westeros would make their way into the Rainwood and find solitude there from their original calling, where they could live on as warriors, yet in the quiet solitude of the forest. Donning her hood to hide her blazing cyan eyes and ardent blonde hair, the party moved out on the trek to Casterly Rock. Edited September 17, 2013 by Horo the Wise Wolf
