She was grubbing for vegetables in a dead man’s garden when she heard the singing. Arya stiffened1, still as stone, listening, the three stringy carrots in her hand suddenly forgotten. She thought of the Bloody2 Mummers and Roose Bolton’s men, and a shiver of fear went down her back. It’s not fair, not when we finally found the Trident, not when we thought we were almost safe. Only why would the Mummers be singing? The song came drifting up the river from somewhere beyond the little rise to the east. “Off to Gulltown to see the fair maid, heigh-ho, heigh-ho...” Arya rose, carrots dangling3 from her hand. It sounded like the singer was coming up the river road. Over among the cabbages, Hot Pie had heard it too, to judge by the look on his face.

The song swelled7 louder with every word. Hot Pie opened his arms. The cabbages fell to the ground with soft thumps8. “We have to hide.” Where? The burned cottage and its overgrown garden stood hard beside the banks of the Trident. There were a few willows10 growing along the river’s edge and reed beds in the muddy shallows beyond, but most of the ground hereabouts was painfully open. I knew we should never have left the woods, she thought. They’d been so hungry, though, and the garden had been too much a temptation. The bread and cheese they had stolen from Harrenhal had given out six days ago, back in the thick of the woods. “Take Gendry and the horses behind the cottage,” she
