The wide hall can easily shelter two hundred people. In the dais stands a simple pillowed wooden chair and in the wall behind it hangs a large banner with their new sigil: a titan's head surrounded by six flying mockingbirds on a field of light green. In event nights a long table is added and there the nobles and knights feast and drink.

Jory stepped into the hall, there were no guards posted outside, which Jory found weird. His bootsteps echoed throughout the empty hall. He saw the titan's head banner and laughed at the ugliness of it. Well, it's certainly better than some other banners I've seen coming here.
"I beg pardon, but, is anyone here?" Jory listened to his voice echo.

Pod came from the back door, little Roose following at his feet, he sat. "You are?"

Jory set down his bag and made a sweeping bow, "Jory Farice, my lord, I've come from Storm's End, as they call it, seeking for some place to stay and for a lord to serve. I'm not much and know nothing about this place, but I could be of some service, I hope."
Jory lifted his head and saw the baby shadowcat and smiled. "A cute kid, does he have a name?"

Roose jumped to Pod's lap. "Roose..." He stared at the man. "What can you do? Do you play? Do you ride?"

Jory chuckled as he watched the shadowcat and helped himself to a seat across from Podrick. "I can do anything that is asked of me, as I said, I aim to be of some use to whoever needs me."

"Usually I would scor you out of here, because as you see the court is closed today... Let me guess, the mad old man from the stables told you I was not a Lord at all and that this was not even a Hall, and yoy thought it was this empty because of that... Am I right?" Pod grinned as he carressed the cat...

Jory chuckled again. "No guards and no people around is enough to make me think no one is here. Perhaps you hide spies in the rafters or under the table, but I'm too lazy a man to search them all out."
Jory looked up and then back down towards Podrick. "But I am not so fool a man to take the word of a stablemaster who looks more like to eat horses than to tie them up." Jory thought back to his horse and made a short sigh, but smiled again. "And I would be even more a fool as to think that any man, no matter how humble their beginnings, cannot become a lord."

Pod smiled. "Har... I liked you... Come to my solar, this place is too big for just you and I" He said as he got up from his chair and went for the back door. "Would you care follow me...ehh... Should I call you Ser?"

Jory laughed and pushed out from his seat, "Feel free to call me anything you want, except for lady."

Jory came in, his feet bare as he discarded his boots somewhere outside and threw a few silver coins on the table before Lord Baelish, "Well, that mission was a total folly, forgive me, my lord."

"What is this...?" Pod sat with Roose on his lap. "Guards realease him... All of you are dispensed I'll talk to him alone..." He told the guards in the hall.

Jory shook his head and sighed, "I tried to tell him he was fired, but he went stark raving mad and attacked me. He ate the coins and I picked up what I could, but... Well, your guards came and good times followed."

"They came to arrest you, not to save you from the mad stablemaster... " His face redened, as soon as he noticed his irritation he took a deep breath and relaxed. " As this was your first mistake and your first work, I'll let this pass... Take the coins you could save and go fuck some random whore..." He got up. "Guards you may come in... This man is under my service, still keep one eye on him..." He grinned at Jory and left.

"Arrest me for what?" Jory grimaced. "Ah, no matter." He scooped up the coins and handed a coin each to the guards and walked out barefoot.
