Ten years a wolf, and you land here and think to prince about the islands, but you know nothing and no one. Why should men fight and die for you? “ “I am their lawful1 prince,” Theon said stiffly. “By the laws of the green lands, you might be. But we make our own laws here, or have you forgotten?” Scowling2, Theon turned to contemplate3 the leaking trencher before him. He would have stew4 in his lap before long. He shouted for a thrall5 to clean it up. Half my life I have waited to come home, and for what? Mockery and disregard? This was not the Pyke he remembered. Or did he remember? He had been so young when they took him away to hold hostage. The feast was a meager6 enough thing, a succession of fish stews7, black bread, and spiceless goat. The tastiest thing Theon found to eat was an onion pie. Ale and wine continued to flow well after the last of the courses had been cleared away. Lord Balon Greyjoy rose from the Seastone Chair. “Have done with your drink and come to my solar,” he commanded his companions on the dais. “We have plans to lay.” He left them with no other word, flanked by two of his guards. His brothers followed in short order. Theon rose to go after them. “My little brother is in a rush to be off.” Asha raised her drinking horn and beckoned8 for more ale. “Our lord father is waiting.” “And has, for many a year. It will do him no harm to wait a little longer... but if you fear his wrath9, scurry10 after him by all means. You ought to have no trouble
