Ser Desmond Grell had served House Tully all his life. He had been a squire1 when Catelyn was born, a knight2 when she learned to walk and ride and swim, master-at-arms by the day that she was wed3. He had seen Lord Hoster’s little Cat become a young woman, a great lord’s lady, mother to a king. And now he has seen me become a traitor4 as well. Her brother Edmure had named Ser Desmond castellan of Riverrun when he rode off to battle, so it fell to him to deal with her crime. To ease his discomfort5 he brought her father’s steward6 with him, dour8 Utherydes Wayn.

They have given their lives to my father’s service, and I have repaid them with disgrace, Catelyn thought wearily. “Your sons,” Ser Desmond said at last. “Maester Vyman told us. The poor lads. Terrible. Terrible. But...” “We share your grief, my lady,” said Utherydes Wayn. “All Riverrun mourns with you, but...” “The news must have driven you mad,” Ser Desmond broke in, “a madness of grief, a mother’s madness, men will understand. You did not know...” “I did,” Catelyn said firmly. “I understood what I was doing and knew it was treasonous. If you fail to punish me, men will believe that we connived11 together to free Jaime Lannister. It was mine own act and mine alone, and I alone must answer for it. Put me in the Kingslayer’s empty irons, and I will wear them proudly, if that is how it must be.” “Fetters?” The very word seemed to shock poor Ser Desmond. “For the king’s mother, my lord’s own daughter? Impossible.” “Mayhaps,” said the steward Utherydes Wayn, “my lady would consent to be confined to her
