When Arya saw the shape of a great hill looming1 in the distance, golden in the afternoon sun, she knew it at once. They had come all the way back to High Heart. By sunset they were at the top, making camp where no harm could come to them. Arya walked around the circle of weirwood stumps3 with Lord Beric’s squire4 Ned, and they stood on top of one watching the last light fade in the west.

The future. Things happening far away.” Arya squinted6 at the fire to see if she could see what the red priest was seeing, but it only made her eyes water and before long she turned away. Gendry was watching the red priest as well. “Can you truly see the future there?” he asked suddenly. Thoros turned from the fire, sighing. “Not here. Not now. But some days, yes, the Lord of Light grants me visions.” Gendry looked dubious7. “My master said you were a sot and a fraud, as bad a priest as there ever was.” “That was unkind.” Thoros chuckled8. “True, but unkind. Who was this master of yours? Did I know you, boy?” “I was ‘prenticed to the master armorer Tobho Mott, on the Street of Steel. You used to buy your swords from him.” “Just so. He charged me twice what they were worth, then scolded me for setting them afire.” Thoros laughed. “Your master had it right. I was no very holy priest. I was born youngest of eight, so my father gave me over to the Red Temple, but it was not the path I would have chosen. I prayed the prayers and I
