The bridges were burnt as well, and the streams swollen⁴ by autumn rains, so they had to range along the banks in search of fords. The nights were alive with howling of wolves, but they saw no people.  At Maidenpool, Lord Mooton’s red salmon⁶ still flew above the castle on its hill, but the town walls were deserted⁷, the gates smashed, half the homes and shops burned or plundered⁸. They saw nothing living but a few feral dogs that went slinking away at the sound of their approach. The pool from which the town took its name, where legend said that Florian the Fool had first glimpsed Jonquil bathing with her sisters, was so choked with rotting corpses¹⁰ that the water had turned into a murky¹¹ grey-green soup.  Jaime took one look and burst into song. “Six maids there were in a spring-fed pool...”  “What are you doing?” Brienne demanded.  “Singing. ‘Six Maids in a Pool I’m sure you’ve heard it. And shy little maids they were, too. Rather like you. Though somewhat prettier, I’ll warrant.”  “Be quiet,” the wench said, with a look that suggested she would love to leave him floating in the pool among the corpses.  “Please, Jaime,” pleaded cousin Cleos. “Lord Mooton is sworn to Riverrun, we don’t want to draw him out of his castle. And there may be other enemies hiding in the rubble
