Arriving at the castle , the lord left his guards to remain outside , along with Bjorn , whom he assumed would not be the best to bring inside . Arriving inside , Brandon greeted the lady with a warm smile and a slight bow as he introduced himself , Lady Karstark , it has been far too long since we have last met .

He also gestured to the older boy with the party , And of course , I could not forget to bring my ward , Lord Brandon Stark .
