POV of Brynden Tully

''No lord Brynden you can't leave the camp without you finish with the missions that have been assigned to you, I'm very sorry, but they are the rules of the camp and they must be respected'' said a captain of the Prussians.

''But, I need to speak with your lord, it is urgent, we are almost arriving to Highgarden we must march against the Tyrells not continue taking their castles'' I said with a serious tone.

''I reiterate Lord Brynden complete your missions and you will be free to go and speak to our king, but you cannot expect us to give privileges to you and your men that we do not give to our men'' said the captain.

''But whenever we finish our damn missions, you always give us more and that has happened several times already, you are doing it deliberately'' said Lyn furious

''It's nothing I can do, it's Prussian rules and we respect them, you would have to talk to our commanding officer about this'' said the captain while putting on his wolf-headed helmet

''and when will he be back?, we haven't seen him for days'' I said with a calm tone

''I don't know, nobody knows, I only know he will be back, but you will have to be attentive when he arrives, as he is always in a bad mood when he returns from missions, well, I hope you understand, but I must go out to investigate the terrain, if you try to leave without authorization I will personally hunt you down for desertion'' the captain said with a cold tone

The Finnish captain that the Westerosis had mistaken for a Prussian went off with a group of his men into the woods to gather information on the terrain so that future patrols would have knowledge of the area for future operations.

Lyn was furious, I could see it in his face.

''Damn it, these Prussians are pulling our leg, they fooled us that they were noble warriors and instead of helping us in this war, they are lining their pockets looting everything in their path and at any moment the tyrell could meet with the Targaryen to attack Robert'' said Lyn

''You must control yourself Lyn here it won't do you any good to use your family name with these men, you can't go around insulting everyone, it won't do anything, they just want to stop us from reporting what is happening here'' I said trying to calm him down.

''I am sick of being threatened that they will kill me if I don't obey Lord Brynden, but I am also worried, we are wasting time here, Lord Arryn and your brother entrusted us with this mission to control them and we have failed terribly'' Lyn said

''They fooled us well, but it is nothing we can do now, we must wait for the leader of these men to return, with any luck he will understand our position and let us speak to the lord of the Prussians or provide us with the ravens they have captured to inform my brother and Lord Arryn'' I said sitting on a stump.

Lyn did not answer, but he sat down beside me and we sat watching the fire for the moment.

'These Prussians, they have given us constant missions, we are to investigate the roads at night to make sure the Tyrell banner men are not guarding the roads at those times, which is stupid, the patrols do not watch at night they only sleep.'

When I was playing with a stick moving the fathoms of the campfire, I heard several horses being ridden back by the wolf-headed Prussians, bringing many prisoners with them.

'I was interested in what was going on, this group might have brought the leader of the camp.'

''Lyn come, let's go see if the camp leader is there'' he said taking him by the shoulder.

''Sure, come on'' said Lyn

I looked at all the men, but no one had anything to distinguish them, they all wore the same equipment without anything to distinguish them, it is extremely difficult to tell if someone was a corporal, sergeant or captain without them telling you.

Just as we were about to give up we saw one of them enter the big tent in the center of the camp.

''I think that was their leader'' I said to Lyn.

''Yes it must be, no one has entered that tent in days'' said Lyn.

We started to walk to the tent and as there were no guards protecting the entrance we just walked in.

The store was full of animal skins, many of them bears and wolves, that adorned everything inside.

Looking at everything I met the eyes of the person we were looking for, wearing a helmet adorned with the head of a wolf and a brown cloth mask that only let us see his eyes.

''What are you doing here?'', said the man with a kind tone

We were looking for you, we needed to go and talk to your lord urgently'' said Lyn a little excited.

The Prussian looked me in the eyes.

''Yes we need to contact your lord, this mission has forgotten its main mission, to confront the tyrell army before they meet with the royalists and I think we should guide him on how he should act'' I said with a respectful tone

''You have not answered my question, who gave you the permission to enter my tent, I have not authorized anyone to search for me'' said the man with a cold tone

''It is urgent, we must leave immediately to speak with your lord'' said Lyn.

''Have you finished your missions?'', asked the man.

''No, but....'' I tried to say.

''There's your answer'' said the man.

''But why? We are in charge of this, you must obey us mercenary'' said Lyn angrily

''Because of Prussian laws, even though we are not Prussians, we will obey them and so must you because I guess you know what happens when someone shows signs of desertion'' said the man staring at me

''We are wasting our time, Lyn, let's go'' I said looking at my companion.

Lyn was angry and I watched as his hand moved to his sword and he started to walk towards the man

''Enough, you are going to let us go, I don't care who your family is, we will carry out our orders whether you like it or not'' said Lyn unsheathed his sword

But before Lyn could get close the growling of several animals could be heard.

The young nobleman froze as he watched four huge dogs jumping out of the private area of the tent, these dogs were so big that they looked like wolves.

''You don't have to worry about my family, lord corbray, I'm just a commoner with no family, my death will just be ignored'' said the man.

The dogs quickly surrounded Lyn who was very frightened by the presence of those dogs.

''But I think these animals would care if something happens to me, but don't worry they are harmless animals, aren't you princess?'' said the man petting one of the dogs on its back making it calm down quickly.

The mysterious man walked up to the tip of Lyn's sword and placed his chest against it and stared at it.

With his hand, he grabbed the sword and took it from Lyn without him making any resistance.

''If you are going to pull out the steel you must act to accompany your actions or you will only be the mockery of everyone, Corbray'' said the man.

He stared at me and turned around and gave Lyn a powerful punch in the stomach

And finally grabbed Lyn's hair and slammed his face into the table.

''Don't ever threaten me again kid, I don't like it when they do, act if you want to kill me, try, but don't talk if you can't follow through'' the man said in Lyn's ear

I wanted to try to protect him, but the dogs now had me surrounded.

''I smell your fear westerosi dog'' he said glaring at me.

''ha, you are the one who hides his face behind a mask'' I replied immediately.

the silence was absolute in the tent, he let go of Lyn's hair.

''Are you afraid to show your face'', I said looking back at him.

He sat back in his chair and looked at me.

''Ha, I'm more concerned about keeping your head on your shoulders'' the man replied.

Again silence ruled the tent

''he, he, he'' he started to laugh

''ha, ha, ha'' I began to laugh too.

''I like you westerosi dog, i like you very much, you have character unlike that pretty boy who was paralyzed with fear by these beautiful and harmless beasts'' said the man

''it's the first time I've seen someone who doesn't respect a nobleman in his presence'' I said to the mysterious man.

''My respect must be earned, I don't give a shit, if your family were kings thousands of years ago, what matters now is the present'' said the man

the man started to whistle, and his dogs turned back to where they came from

''I hope my princesses have not been a bother to you, but as you understand many people tend to think they are dangerous, well, they are only when I order them to be, not long ago, they tore apart a man who thought he could kill before they did, it didn't happen'' the man said with a kind tone

''May I know your name?'', I asked.

''you will know it when you earn my respect or if my lord orders me to hunt you down for something'' the man replied

Lyn seemed to recover from the blow and stands next to me.

''I hope I don't have to repeat what I told you lord corbray there will be no second chance, so you can go thank your father for saving your life because if you had been someone ordinary I would have you impaled on a stick leaving you alive to die slowly'' the man said with the most unpleasant tone I had ever heard

''How can I help you, Lord Brynden, you do have business with me'' the man continued speaking.

''I would be most grateful if you would allow us to speak to your lord or send you a raven'' I said respectfully.

''Well, well, the ravens I cannot, as I am using them myself to communicate with my king, but I release you from your duties and without quests you are allowed to go wherever you wish'' the man said in a kind tone

A Finnish soldier entered carrying a tray full of cooked beef, he simply ignored the Westerosis and left the tray in front of his commander and then left.

The mysterious man began to take the meat with his hands and called his dogs and began to feed them.

I said looking at Lyn who was trying to hide the wounds on his face.

As we were about to leave the man began to speak again.

''Lord Tully, lord corbray how good it is to have you here, I have a mission for you'' said the man in a cheerful voice.

We immediately turned around to see the man surrounded by his dogs

''Are you kidding?'', said Lyn.

''No, you are soldiers who have no orders and now you have them and a critical mission and you must obey, as you will be accompanying me on a personal mission'' said the man.

''Where are we going?'', I asked.

''We're going to have fun testing the Tarly's defenses'' the man replied

''so are we going to watch their patrols or see how they respond to a bandit attack?'', Lyn said

''Come on, that would be too easy, it's better when your life is in danger and you can feel your heart, pumping blood, through your body, let's go conquer their castle, you and me and some of my men'' said the man with a kindly tone

''You are crazy?'' said Lyn

''Maybe, but we are going in three hours, I need to get some sleep, I haven't slept in two days'' said the man

'Shit, it looks like he wants to commit suicide with us'.

''How should we refer to you''I said with a serious tone.

''You can call me whatever you want, the Prussians call me, the king's lapdog, the white devil or just THE Finn, I much prefer to be called by the last one, but it's your choice'' said the man without paying any attention to us

The man continued to feed his dogs, when he ran out of food he got up and went into the private area of the tent, followed by his dogs.

Lyn and I came out of the tent and stood for a few moments in thought.

''What just happened'' I said perplexed.

''I don't know, but the bastard got my sword'' said Lyn licking his lips.

''He popped your lip with the blow, are you all right'' I said worriedly

''It hurts more, my pride, I stood by and did nothing while that filthy commoner humiliated me'' said Lyn.

''let's go get our equipment he said three hours we must be ready'' I said looking at Lyn.
