As he stood in the predawn chill watching Chiggen butcher his horse, Tyrion Lannister chalked upone more debt owed the Starks. Steam rose from inside the carcass when the
squat2 sellsword openedthe
belly3 with his skinning knife. His hands moved
deftly4, with never a wasted cut; the work had to bedone quickly, before the
stink5 of blood brought shadowcats down from the heights.
“None of us will go hungry tonight,” Bronn said. He was near a shadow himself; bone thin andbone hard, with black eyes and black hair and a stubble of beard.
“Some of us may,” Tyrion told him. “I am not fond of eating horse. Particularly my horse.”
“Meat is meat,” Bronn said with a
shrug6. “The Dothraki like horse more than beef or pork.”
“Do you take me for a Dothraki?” Tyrion asked sourly. The Dothraki ate horse, in truth; they alsoleft
deformed7 children out for the feral dogs who ran behind their khalasars. Dothraki customs hadscant appeal for him.
Chiggen sliced a thin strip of
bloody8 meat off the carcass and held it up for
inspection9. “Want ataste,
dwarf10?”
“My brother Jaime gave me that
mare11 for my twenty-third name day,” Tyrion said in a flat voice.
“Thank him for us, then. If you ever see him again.” Chiggen grinned, showing yellow teeth, andswallowed the raw meat in two bites. “Tastes well bred.”
“Better if you fry it up with onions,” Bronn put in.
