A Storm of Swords – Beggars

A Storm of Swords – Beggars

Riding up Muddy Way Tyrion and Bronn encounter more children. But these are a little more desperate than the ones playing on the Three Whores. He throws a few coppers the beggars’ way.

 There was far too much going on in this paragraph so I limited myself to Tyrion and the beggars. On a side note, it also allowed me to try and show Tyrion’s special saddle described in Game of Thrones I’m not sure if it’s accurate, but at least I was able to show some of the straps keeping Tyrion steady on his horse.

Muddy Way was crowded, but soldiers and townfolk alike made way for the Imp and his escort. Hollow-eyed children swarmed underfoot, some looking up in silent appeal whilst others begged noisily. Tyrion pulled a big fistful of coppers from his purse and tossed them in the air, and the children went running for them, shoving and shouting. The lucky ones might be able to buy a heel of stale bread tonight.
