A Storm of Swords – Small Talk

Catelyn makes small talk, commenting on the music to Ryman Frey.

Once again, I admit, I am reluctant to do any more of the Red Wedding than I have to, but I enjoy the drama of Catelyn’s growing discomfort before the blood hits the plate.

On a side note, I don’t recall Merrett Frey being mentioned in the scene. but since his job is to get the Greatjon stinking drunk, I assumed that if we see Greatjon Umber partying, Merrett is there too.

The musicians were playing “Iron Lances” by then, while the Greatjon sang “The Lusty Lad.” Someone should acquaint them with each other, it might improve the harmony. Catelyn turned back to Ser Ryman. “I had heard that one of your cousins was a singer.”
