The forest floor was a treacherous slurry of mud and gore. Bound tightly back-to-back with Jaime, I faced the sneering Bolton soldier, his contempt plain. A shrill whistle split the air. The man dropped, an arrow bearing a golden lion crest lodged in his neck. Three more shafts followed in swift succession, felling his comrades. From the shadowed undergrowth, a woman in the crimson and gold armor of House Lannister stepped forward, another arrow already nocked.

The word echoed in the sudden silence. She had called me a knight.
