But this victory felt a bit empty. Stannis was killed, but not by him. His lover Myranda was also found dead when he returned from the battle. Reek and his wife, Sansa, were gone. Oh, he did not doubt that they had run off to their bastard brother at the Wall. He had sent a letter, taunting them with his latest possession, a gift from House Umber – one Rickon Stark. They would have no choice but to come to him if they cared for their brother. But meanwhile, he was...bored. And as Lord Bolton, hunting smallfolk was now beneath him.
