King's Landing, Queens Quarter.
In the house near Security Office, Leyton Little Steward of Gryn was talking to a strong man.
"Captain Rattel, you stay here for now. Master Gryn will have new arrangements when he comes back."
After Whispers received the letter from Gryn, 20 Survey Corps soldiers who set off according to the order arrived at King's Landing.
Rattel, who looks about thirty years old, is the captain Survey Corps this time.
Rattel nodded and glanced around the surroundings habitually. "Leyton, thank you for welcoming you, what do we need to do during this time?"
Leyton approached Rattel and lowered his voice. "Sir Gryn, I need you to get familiar with this place, familiar with every house, and familiar with every road."
"I'll make arrangements shortly."
Leyton shook his head. "We need to prepare first. King's Landing has a lot of eyes hidden in the dark. We also need to change our clothes. There is still some time. We need to plan carefully."
"I understand."
Leyton hummed and asked, "Captain Rattel, have you met my sister Kalaia before departure?"
"I didn't see it, but you know that we Survey Corps have been in the old place all the time. After Ser Pell received the order to mobilize troops, we were arranged to set off after Ser Pell selected the troops. We did not pass by Whispers and went directly to Mermaid Harbor."
After being separated for a while, Mutton missed her sister a little bit.
After a pause, Rattel continued, "I have also heard that Governor Mermaid Harbor's Herschel housekeeper is very busy, and your sister has helped him share a lot of Whispers's affairs. I think she is doing well, so you don't have to worry too much."
Leyton nodded slightly. "That's me, my mother and I are both at King's Landing. I'm always uneasy about leaving her alone in the territory."
Although Rattel didn't quite understand this feeling, he still shrugged and expressed his understanding.
Southeast of Crabb's Lands, Thorn Legion camp.
In the regimental commander's tent, Amparo, wearing a short robe, sat at the table and wrote something seriously.
At this time, Lena with braided hair entered the tent.
"The weather is crazy. It's so hot these days. Is it going to rain heavily?"
Lena said as he took off his robe and kept it aside.
Amparo raised his eyes and glanced at a pair of apples, and his thick lips moved.
Sensing Amparo's gaze, Lena tilted her delicate body slightly, posed, and said with a smile, "I know, I know, I'm just too hot. Please let me cool down for a while. I'll pay attention when there are other people around."
Amparo's eyes returned to the desktop.
Lena approached the table and looked down, with a surprised tone. "Amparo!"
Amparo put down the quill in his hand and blushed on his cheeks.
Lena sighed, "It's hard for you. I just wrote these words in one morning..."
Amparo pulled the paper to the other side and said with a bit of annoyance, "Don't forget, this is still your idea! I just, it's been too long, I just can't remember how to write some things."
Amparo's words seemed a bit lacking in confidence later on.
Lena nodded in agreement. "That's right, we just learned some words from the nuns when we were very young. I only remember that you learned the best at that time, but I forgot that so much time has passed."
Lena shook his little face and spread his hands. "When we grow up, we have to be busy hunting every day, so there is no spare time."
Yes, that's the truth!
I forgot how to write for a reason!
Amparo nodded his head in agreement.
"Oh, what a pity. I saw several new daggers at Survey Corps. The size is very suitable for us... the sword body is also thickened a lot, so it must be very strong!"
Amparo wiped the sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand. "There are only a few of them you see in the entire territory. Pell knights told me that the Smith will build more."
"So, I want you to write to the lord quickly! Even White Walker doesn't know if the next batch of new daggers will fall into the hands of our regiment!"
"Lena, Ser Pell is a just knight!"
Lena sighed again, "I know, I know, but this doesn't stop you from writing to the lord! We are constantly fighting now. Which corps is not suffering from serious weapon wear and tear? You don't have to guess, others have already taken action!"
While talking, Lena put his hand on Amparo's shoulder. "You are so wet!"
Lena retracted his hand and walked behind Amparo: "I just realized that you are a wet leopard. Raise your arms and I will help you take off your robe."
Amparo hesitated for a moment, then raised his arm and matched Lena's movements.
After helping Amparo take off his robe, he continued, "What did you say just now? Well... well... in short, just listen to me, everyone is doing it!"
Amparo moved and felt much better indeed!
Amparo covered his face with a headache. "This is harder than fighting...Lena, the problem is that I can't write many things!"
It's not easy to ask others for help with this kind of thing.
Amparo decided in her heart that Whispers must recruit a sister who knows how to write next time!
Lena crossed his arms, rolled his eyes, and suddenly said, "You can draw if you encounter someone who can't write!"
Amparo blinked. "Painting?"
Amparo thinks Lena's idea is terrible. Painting skills are a more advanced skill. Even White Walker might not be able to understand what she draws with her painting skills!
Seeing Lena's face excited because he thought of a good idea, Amparo, who couldn't think of a good idea for a while, was a little hesitant.
How about giving it a try?
The day before Kingswood Hunt ended, Gryn took his clan soldiers and left the Kingswood camp in a low-key manner.
After Gryn left, Kingswood Hunt's escort was taken over by Jaime.
Gryn, which started early in the morning, entered Roseroad near noon.
Gryn found the steward Russell and others near Roseroad waiting to meet up.
Gryn found that steward Russell was much more energetic than the last time we met.
"Good day, my master, Russell sends you his regards."
Gryn nodded slightly. "Russell, how do you find out about the price?"
"My master, King's Landing's grain prices are the best to inquire about. After receiving your order, I quickly sorted it out. I have been inquiring along the way out of King's Landing. My face is too unfamiliar here. They have one price for acquaintances and another price for strangers. I am not sure whether the information I obtained is credible."
"That's enough. That's all I want."
The purpose of Gryn is just to get a general understanding of the range of price changes in the north and south.
Gryn pulled the reins and shouted, "Let's go!"
