Winterfell had the atmosphere of celebration as the King had called upon all Lords and Ladies to attend the banquet for the first name day of Crown Prince Reagan. It was not only the Lords and Ladies who were celebrating, the King had given a feast for the small folk of the Winter town. They hailed for the King, the Queen and the Prince, they didn't fail to hail the dire wolf companion of the Prince either, which made Reagan smile at the genuine wishes from them.
King Brandon, Queen Sarra and Prince Reagan was sitting at tge high table with guards standing three to four feet away from the Royal Family. The unknown headless man with a knife in his hand inside the chamber of the Royal Family had been a black mark on the guards, so they have taken it upon themselves to guard the family without rest.
Brandon and Sarra hadn't said anything in front of Reagan, but he knows every information that there is know after having a skin contact with them. And now, Reagan was looking down from the high table at the Lords and Ladies present with their respective heir or heiress. After looking at each and every one of them with the face of a curious little child looking around in wonder about the new people he was seeing. On the other hand, Reagan was plotting something in his mind 'I should go around and find out where the loyalties lies for these Lords present here. In doing so, I should do something to Lord Bolton as he had tried to kill my father by hiring a faceless man. Should I augment the other lords and tie it up with their dna so it will be passed down in the future or should I just concentrate on my family only? Well there will be another time for that, the day when I become a man in the eyes of the Gods and Men. Thats fifteen years later, so I can wait. But I should what I have to do.'
Looking at his father, he asked "Pa, play."
Pinching his cheeks, Brandon said as smiled at Reagan "Go ahead. Take Fenrir with you, and a guard will be following you closely."
"Okay." Saying do, he extended his arms to his father to get him down from his high seat. When Brandon complied and placed him on the ground, Reagan climbed over Fenrir and said out loud "Chage!"
Fenrir took off with grace, followed closely by a guard. Brandon kept an eye on Reagan for a few seconds, and looked at his wife when she pulled his shirt. Sarra looked at him and said "Are you sure that it's safe to leave him alone?"
Smiling at his wife, he wrapped his hand around her midriff and pulled her closer and whispered to her "He have Fenrir, who have bit off the head of an assassin. An assassin who used sleep inducing gas on us to kill us in our deep slumber. I'm sure that Fenrir can defend our son with all it's might and do you think that there is someone who have balls to break the guest rights in the keep of the Winter King?"
"No, but I'm his mother, it's my duty to worry about him and you." She said as she bit her lower lip in frustration and anger towards the one who had hired the assassin to kill them.
Bumping his forehead with her, Brandon said "My dear wife, your husband and son won't leave you to fend off against the leeches in the North. We will always be there for you, I promise you that."
"And I'll be there for you three too." Sarra said as she shed some tears.
Reagan started to go around each and every one of the lords that were present, he started using psychometry from the minor lords who sworn their loyalty to the High Lords. Each and everyone was loyal to the Royal Family Stark through their lieg lords, except for some of the minor lords sworn to High Lord Bolton. A devious idea came to his mind 'How about I make all these minor lords fight against Bolton? No, I shouldn't do that now that I know the Doom had happened thirty years ago. I know that Boltons are loyal to the North like the Starks, but they despise Starks so much. But still, I would need them to rally together against Aegon abd his dragons.'
Next he went to the High Lords and be was content in knowing that they were Loyal to Starks and will ride out if they were called upon at anytime. But there were two who were a bit of a problem, Lord Roose Bolton and Lord Wyman Manderly. 'Both of them are loyal, but Lord Bolton wants to plant his blood as the King of the North, and Lord Manderly is loyal to the Faith as he is loyal to the Starks, and he is requesting father to approve the appointment of Maesters in each lordly houses. He is recommending this because of the Maester that had accompanied him from the Reach, their old Kingdom. Maesters are good, but I don't trust those grey rats that much. I just hope that before father approves of it I could do something about the messages that have to be passed between the lords. Can't have them looking through it. Now as for Lord Bolton, I'm going to make his only son, Ramsey Bolton, impotent and tweak the DNA of Lord Bolton to be loyal to house Starks. And if the future Lords become not loyal to the Starks, they will also turn impotent like Ramsey Bolton.'
He started his tweaking of DNA when he made Lord Bolton pick him up, which was closely watched by Brandon Stark. When he was finished with his DNA tweaking and a bit more after fully knowing what kind of man Roose was, he extended his arms to Ramsey Bolton. As Reagan used psychometry on Ramsey when they had contact, the only thing that went through the mind of the little king was 'Fuck this shits! I'm eradicating this house with Ramsey and Roose being the last member of the house. I have made sure that Roose will get heavy pneumonia within five days. I don't want these sadistic fucks in my Kingdom. Why didn't father kill these guys himself and give Dreadfort to a new Lord?'
After all was done, Reagan made Ramsey place him over Fenrir, at the last contact, Reagan made a delayed command in his brain that would make him attack the King and Queen within an hour.
Reagan went back to his parents and waited for the commotion to start, and when an hour passed, Ramsey stood up from his seat with a mug full of mead in his hand. He walked up to the high table and everyone observed him as they thought that he was going to give a toast to the Prince. Even Roose was observing his son, not knowing what prompted him to walk up to the King and Queen.
Surprising everyone in the Great Hall, Ramsey bashed the mug on the table and loudly proclaimed as he tried to stab Reagan in the face using the cutting knife from the table "Glory for the Red Kings!"
Brandon was fast, but Fenrir was faster as he jumped from Reagan's back and bit Ramsey on the balls and ripped it appart. A blood curdling scream came from Ramsey "ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG"
One of the guards who was standing behind the Royal Family swiftly stabbed his spear through the heart of Ramsey killing him instantly. When he retrieved the spear, the blood splashed on to the face of Reagan who had a horrified look, but in his mind he cursed 'Damn guard. Why did you kill him so quickly? He should have died by blood loss through his nether region for all the rapes and flaying he done to the small folks in the Dreadfort.'
The frozen hall was brought back to life by the shout of Brandon Stark "Seize Lord Bolton. He gave some answering to do."
Lord Umber who was nearest to Roose was the first to react as he held Lord Bolton with his two large hands, locking him in his place. Lord Bolton looked horrified at the actions of his son, and cursed him in his mind as he opened his mouth "King Stark! What is the meaning of this?"
"You are asking for the reason for this after seeing your sin trying to murder my son?" Brandon thundered in rage.
Roose didn't back down and he asked back "You killed him for it before even giving him a trial! Are you going to do the same for me?"
Squinting his eyes, Brandon said in a low voice that reverberated through out the hall that sent chills to the spines of the lords present in the hall, his eyes showed the same icy look he had when he killed the pirates at the Wolf Den few years back, showing how enraged the King was "You, hired a man to assassinate me and my family few days ago. Today, your son tried to kill my son openly. During the war against the ironmen you and your soldiers tried your best to stab me in the back. What do you plead."
"Not guilty." Roose said within a second.
Brandon then said "You and your bannermen will be sent to prison, until evidence is found for your crimes. Rest well in the dungeon."
Then looking at the guards of Winterfell, Brandon said "Lord Bolton broke the guest rights and attacked my family, he will be detained and investigated. Lord Umber, Lord Karstark, Lord Mormont and Lord Reed. You will be investigating the Dreadfort for any evidence and bring it to me within a week. I'm assigning you lords for investigation as I know that you lords are just ones."
With orders given out, Brandon left with Sarra who was holding Reagan close to her chest, followed by Fenrir and gurads of Winterfell who looked even more vigilant from before.
