Jormun nods to Dacey. "The cub is being kept in the cage Gerdy used for Warrior until it can transition into the Pit. Unfortunately, I am almost certain our kennelmaster will need to be replaced, even if she survives. Nobody sane chases after wolves in the dark while they're bleeding." He gives a slight shrug.

"Pate?! Oh gods not not Pate!" the guardsmen replied, face twisting with emotion, before pausing, thoughtful. "Wait, which Pate? Fat Pate? Skinny Pate? Tall Pate? Short Pate? Ugly Pate? It better not be the Pate that owes me 6 coppers." He looked curiously at Jormun's mention of the giantess hunting wolves alone. "No one thought to go with her?"

"She decided to ride off before the Master of the Hunt gave his decision, so he decided to travel back with the guards and avoid any more deaths. The gods will decide if she returns to us or not. Also, I believe it was Young Pate. He died too soon, damned wolves."

"In my experience, the Gods don't return much at Harrenhal, even that which you grip with both hands," the guard replied, somber at the news. "Was a good lad. I hope it was quick at least. All we can really ask for in the end."

Jormun nods in return, his mood dour. "Aye, it was quick. We brought him back for a proper funeral, at least. He will be able to protect Harrenhal even in the afterlife. I think he would want as much."

"Some reward," Roland scoffed, "This place has more ghosts than it does inhabitants, none of them friendly. Doubt that lad had such ambitions, other than a warm bed and full belly."

Jormun thought about making a remark similar to 'the ghosts can bite me', but being in Harrenhal quickly dissuades him of the idea. "A fair point. We will bury him outside of the keep, then. Nobody should have to be in Harrenhal forever."

Dacey strongly suspected it might've been Skinny Pate instead, but figured they could have someone identify him later. Harrenhal had already demonstrated its influence reached far beyond its walls, so that might've been moot, but she appreciated the idea.
"Well said," she said, and turned to the guard. "I believe you have some reporting to do, Roland."

"Yes, milady," the guardsmen replied with a bow, not dallying any longer as he ran off to inform the guardsmen.

Jormun takes a nearby seat as he looks to Dacey, remaining silent for several moments. "That could have gone better."

Dacey looked on briefly as the guard left, then took a seat next to her brother. "Those should be our house's words, all things considered," she said, and sighed. "Edmure has taken our uncle's place in this Smallwood conflict. Jon is apparently unwell and unfit to manage Harrenhal. I'll do it, for the time being."

"Lady Dacey of House Blackfort? That has a nice, slightly terrifying ring to it. Hope nobody upsets you, you're the best archer we've got." Jormun chuckled as he waved a servant order, getting himself an ale. "If your first order is to make those our house words, I'm in."

Dacey laughed a little at Jormun's final comment. "That would go down well with Belric," she said. "You want to go on another bear hunt at some point, don't you?" she asked.

"Certainly, but I think we have a wolf hunt first. Their furs will make us good gold, and meat is meat. I do wonder how things are going away from Harrenhal, though. If our family is safe."

Dacey nodded. Wolf pelts would be most welcome in the winter. "Safety can never be guaranteed," she said. "We can only hope they are."
