Winterfell City.
As the most famous tavern in the east of the city, the "Butter Tavern" has, uncharacteristically, turned away a large number of potential patrons today.
"Huh? Why was he allowed in, but we're not?"
At the tavern's entrance, a young patron, stopped by the attendant, pointed at a client who'd just been welcomed inside and questioned.
The tavern attendant politely explained, "I am very sorry, but the gentleman who just entered has an invitation."
"So, does this mean the tavern is reserved for a private party today?"
"Yes, it is."
The refused patrons huffed and puffed expressing their dissatisfaction, but none of them dared to storm in.
As regulars of the "Butter Tavern," they all knew it had strong backing. It was said that the tavern owner had profound connections with the aristocrats residing in the castle atop the hill.
Against such a backdrop, who dared to mess around here, thereby risking being ostracized from the North Territory?
