Robb was surprised that Tyrion, the little devil, did not touch Sansa and became the Hand of Queen Daenerys after learning that Tywin was poisoned.
After learning about the sufferings her two daughters had gone through, and seeing them sitting in front of her safely, Caitlin felt only relief in her heart.
Catelyn sighed slightly at the death of her sister Lysa, and could only try her best to take care of her remaining son Robin.
On the third day after the siege of Riverrun, Robb suddenly received a mysterious letter. Seeing the rare claw mark seal that he had only seen once, Robb guessed the owner of the letter.
The content of the letter was very simple, with only a repetitive sentence before the Red Wedding reminding him to be careful of the Freys and a signature - Daenerys Targaryen.
Robb didn't expect that the person who reminded them was Queen Daenerys who was sitting on the black dragon two days ago.
After receiving the mysterious reminder and escaping from the Red Wedding, he and his mother have guessed countless times about the person who saved their lives.
No matter how much they guessed, no one among the nobles of Westeros would have imagined that their savior would be Daenerys, the Mother of Dragons, who was far away in the Slaver's Bay at that time.
Taking the letter to his mother's room, Robb handed it to Catelyn.
Catelyn was also surprised when she saw the contents of the letter. She also heard the news that Daenerys and her black dragon were chasing the Lannister army on the day when Riverrun was relieved.
But he didn't expect that the person who reminded him to save his mother and son was actually her.
Seeing their mother's surprised expression after reading the letter, Sansa and Arya looked at her curiously, wondering what was in the letter that made their brother's expression so solemn. Their mother was also surprised after reading it.
Putting down the letter in her hand, Catelyn said to her two daughters who were looking at her curiously, "You must be curious about why Robb and I were able to escape from the Red Wedding carefully planned by the Frey family and the Lannisters?"
"That's because someone informed us in advance that the Frey family would do something bad to us."
When Caitlin said this she saw the shocked and unbelievable expressions on her two daughters' faces.
Catelyn glanced at her son. Robb was now ashamed. He continued, "But we did not completely believe what the messenger said. We suspected that Lannister might have sent the letter deliberately to destroy the alliance between the two families."
"Because violating the guest rights that Westeros has maintained for tens of thousands of years will have serious consequences. As a noble of the Frey family, you should not do such a thing."
"But we still made certain preparations just in case so we could escape back to Riverrun."
"The person who reported the incident never contacted us again. We have speculated on the identity of the person who reported the incident countless times, but we didn't expect that we were wrong."
After hearing what happened, Sansa and Arya felt a little confused and didn't know what to say.
Now that their mother had told them this, and they had read the letter again, they immediately understood. Arya couldn't help but ask, "Mother, who is the messenger?"
"Daenerys Targaryen!"
"It's her?" The two sisters exclaimed in surprise almost at the same time.
They naturally knew that Daenerys was still far away in Slaver's Bay when the Red Wedding took place. How could she know the contents of the Red Wedding, which was so carefully planned?
Catelyn put the letter on the table next to her and looked at her son Robb, waiting for his decision.
The meaning of the letter being delivered to Riverrun at this time is self-evident.
Looking at the letters on the table, Robb recalled the series of events that happened after he led his troops out of Winterfell.
From being king reluctantly to being in high spirits, from making wrong decisions and suffering setbacks to feeling disheartened after the Red Wedding, now that Riverrun has been relieved and his sister has returned, he has long lost interest in the Iron Throne.
"I am willing to give up my title as King in the North and serve Queen Daenerys!"
After making the decision, Robb suddenly relaxed all over. It seemed that he was indeed not suitable for competing for the Iron Throne.
Seeing her son made the decision, Catelyn nodded slightly. She also thought that the Wolf family was not fit to sit on the Iron Throne. She only hoped that the battle for the Iron Throne would end quickly so that she could return to Winterfell with her children as soon as possible.
Arya doesn't understand the battle for the Iron Throne. She has similar ideas to her mother Catelyn. As long as the whole family can be together, she can also practice sword skills with peace of mind.
Taking her eyes off Robb's face, Arya suddenly found that there was something wrong with her sister Sansa's expression. She rolled her eyes, looked at Robb and then at Sansa, and seemed to understand something in her heart.
Hearing that Robb was going to give up the King in the North and submit to Queen Daenerys, Sansa thought of Riverrun and the Eyrie, and felt regretful and unwilling at the same time.
After Robb made up his mind, he held a meeting with his men. Everyone was shocked to hear that Robb was going to give up the throne of King in the North.
When they heard that he was going to serve Queen Daenerys, those who wanted to speak out against it opened their mouths but said nothing.
Many people have seen Drogon's huge figure soaring in the sky. Although they have not seen him attack, they have learned from the generals of the Eyrie that Drogon burned men and horses to pieces in the Battle of Gods Eye Lake.
They heard that Queen Daenerys had three dragons in total, and they didn't know what army or city could stop the dragon's attack.
In addition to dragons, they also witnessed the bravery of the Dothraki, the natural cavalry, on horseback, and believed that with the same number of people, they would never be a match for the Dothraki.
What's more, those who are close to Robb also vaguely know why they were able to escape the Red Wedding.
And today Robb suddenly received a mysterious letter. They were all wondering whether Robb's giving up the throne and serving Queen Daenerys was related to this letter.
After announcing his renunciation of the throne, Robb thought that many of the nobles in the northern and river regions who followed him would oppose it.
However, he didn't expect that several people who were about to stand up to oppose sat back in their seats after hearing that he planned to serve Daenerys, which suddenly made him feel a little frustrated.
I couldn't even utter the reasons and words of persuasion I had prepared in advance.
Seeing her son returning to his room somewhat disappointed, Catelyn thought that Robb was still reluctant to give up the throne.
When Catelyn learned of Robb's generals' reactions to joining Queen Daenerys, she did not expect it to be so smooth.
Only then did he understand why his son was so frustrated. He opened his mouth to comfort Robb, but he didn't know what to say.
When Sansa and Arya heard what Robb said, they didn't expect that Queen Daenerys would be so valued.
...
The day after Daenerys and Drogon returned to Dragonstone, they suddenly received a report from the dock guard that more than a hundred warships had arrived south of the Narrow Sea, but their flags could not be seen clearly.
After ordering the Dragonstone garrison to be on proper alert, Daenerys arrived at the dock, estimated the distance of the fleet, picked up a telescope and looked through it. She could barely make out the pattern on the flag - a red sun pierced by a golden spear.
The fleet came from the Martell family of Dorne, the family to which Prince Oberyn belonged.
What is Dorne doing here? Is he going to form an alliance with me? Daenerys thought to herself, remembering what Tyrion once said to her.
She certainly didn't think that Dorne was coming to attack Dragonstone. It was simply impossible to attack Dragonstone with more than a hundred warships.
Knowing that it was a Dornish fleet, Drogon was somewhat expectant. The leader of the fleet should be Prince Oberyn of Dorne.
After confirming that it was Oberyn, Daenerys received him in the main hall of Dragonstone.
Looking at Daenerys, who was noble and majestic sitting on the throne, Oberyn actually saw some of her brother Rhaegar's shadow in her.
