Away from the place where the two High House members were, in a house of the village, a man stood at the window with his arms crossed against his chest whilst another man in black robes at the table, stood there reading the parchments from the light of the candle which was on the table. The man murmured something under his breath as if he was trying to decipher something from the parchments.
"How much more time do you need, Fraunces?" asked the man, who stood at the window.
Apart from these two people, there were six more people in the room who had almost camouflaged themselves to the background, standing near the wall and waiting for the soothsayer to give them more information about what was going to be feasible for them.
"Just a little more time," replied the soothsayer, grabbing the four bones of an animal from the table that were of the size of a matchstick. He shuffled the bones in his hand before throwing it on the table.
