CHAPTER 63

Yet the old red tales were still told around driftwood fires and smoky hearths1 all across the islands, even behind the high stone halls of Pyke. Theon’s father numbered among his titles the style of Lord Reaper2, and the Greyjoy words boasted that We Do Not Sow. It had been to bring back the Old Way more than for the empty vanity of a crown that Lord Balon had staged his great rebellion. Robert Baratheon had written a bloody3 end to that hope, with the help of his friend Eddard Stark4, but both men were dead now. Mere5 boys ruled in their stead, and the realm that Aegon the Conqueror6 had forged was smashed and sundered7. This is the season, Theon thought as the captain’s daughter slid her lips up and down the length of him, the season, the year, the day, and I am the man. He smiled crookedly8, wondering what his father would say when Theon told him that he, the last-born, babe and hostage, he had succeeded where Lord Balon himself had failed. His climax9 came on him sudden as a storm, and he filled the girl’s mouth with his seed. Startled, she tried to pull away, but Theon held her tight by the hair. Afterward10, she crawled up beside him. “Did I please milord? “ “Well enough,” he told her. “It tasted salty,” she murmured. “Like the sea?” She nodded. “I have always loved the sea, milord.” “As I have,” he said, rolling her nipple idly between his fingers. It was true. The sea meant freedom to the men of the Iron Islands. He had forgotten that until the Myraham had raised sail at Seagard. The sounds brought old feelings back; the creak of wood and rope, the captain’s shouted commands, the snap of the sails as the wind filled them, each as familiar as the beating of his own heart, and as comforting. I must remember this, Theon
