[ Ned stared a moment overlong at the stranger, her hawkish nose, her dark skin. He'd never had much opportunity to acquaint himself with foreigners outside of the mercenaries which flocked to the war.

If nothing else, his attention seems utterly innocent in its openness. ]

Aye, that it is. To be torn from home and kin and told you're little but a pig going to the slaughter, and have the matter celebrated.

[ The words were black, fell from his mouth like leaden weights. ]

neeeeeeeeed ;~;

[ quite used to men staring, she makes no fuss about it - usually, she'd be driven to tease him for it, to meet him with a grin and a quip. right now, the subject calls for a little more serious. Nabooru answers with a low hum of agreement - recently, she has not exactly been surrounded by home and kin, but she still understands, sympathises. ]

They seem to think a party will buy service. [ she scoffs. ] Such soldiers would be worthless for any real fight.

ahhh, I was worried I wouldn't have time to tag you! c: she'd be a great addition!

[fatherlordandfool]

[ He'd love the opportunity to agree with her.

Instead, he sighs, shoulders sagging. ]

Not so, I'm afraid. Some moons I've remained here; and a good many of the soldiers gathered who are determined to fight are... skillful. Some genuinely good men; others young, eager for glory and victory.

[ But he dipped his chin, offered his work-roughened hand. ]

Lord Eddard Stark of Winterfell.

I'm really glad you did 8]

[chivalrist]

[ her eyes narrow in distaste, and she casts a glance about them, not wary but disdainful. she is curious in her concern, wondering, because whatever action comes here she needs to know who she can count on, who she can't.

she takes his hand, shakes it firmly. Stark. Winterfell. cold words, hard words; indeed, there is something wintry in him, too. ]

Nabooru, Exalted of the Gerudo. [ her flat expression creaks into a small, determined sort of smile. ] You have been here some time, Stark. Tell me, what do you think of the king and queen I've heard talk of?

[ The skin of his hands is very pale against hers, nut-brown. And less clean, at that; he might have come to the feast straight from currying horses or handling hounds. ]

Hearing talk of them is near the most you will do, regarding them. They are passive, and near always out of sight. The Unseelie Court, I understand, is possessed of more active leadership.

I do not intend to linger much longer under the auspices of their protection.

[chivalrist]

[ Exalted though she may be, she does not seem displeased by strong, calloused hands. if anything, it wins a brief smile from her, earnest and glad. she doesn't know of many lords willing to dirty their hands. ]

Elusive leaders, placating us with parties. [ she scoffs again, hands coming to her hips; it's clear she thinks little of such authority. but her interest is piqued by thought of an alternative. tilting her head, she looks at him closely. ] What will you do?
