Raven winced, trying to sit up again,"So I am to be you, if I am going to protect the queen?" Raven nodded,"I can do that. I am a bastard afterall, not much is expected of us. I have been given a chance to do something great. To be someone great...."
She looked at him,"If that is what it takes, then fine.... I will take whatever you give and make it my armor."

He looks to her. "Your name does not hold you back." He looks to her. "You think it does but because the name waters is a curse. But think of it as a blessing use it to your advantage, be proud of it. If you were meant to be great, you will do it, not your name." He looks over her. "No your not to be me, you will love, be married, and perhaps one day give birth. Such for me has long passed."

"But I am to protect her until I am needed no more,"she looked at the things in his study,"My life for hers, I am willing to make that trade..."
"The Queen chose me for one reason or another, but she chose me... I can not let her down."

Raven looked at him, there was his sharp tongue again,"Let's get me trained first, then that avenue will be explored."
She moved slightly, wincing,"I have never faced another person, other than my father... "

Raven listened to him, nodding. She laid still looking around his study again. He seemed to be the warrior's warrior. He was trusted with the sole safety of his family, but he had the warmth of a grizzled bear. "It is to be expected I guess",she thought to herself.
"Your dragon, how old is it?"

"Just curious, Lord Commander", she settlec in further, trying get comfortable. "I have only heard rumors of the dragons... Now I've seen one.... Curiousity fulfilled."
Raven laid wishing that she was not so bruised and broken. She wanted to see the beast again, but she was not ready... She chuckled softly thinking of those very words from Markar.

The small amount of whatever the Maester gave her was settling into her body. She felt drowsy, he did not have to tell her more than once to rest.
Her eyelids closed and Raven slept.

Raven awoke with a start, her body still a little sore. She looked at the Lord Commander with sleepy eyes. "Alright... Alright...." She stretched her body, wincing slightly and stood before him.
"What am I in for this day, Lord Commander?"

He tosses her chain and a Gold cape. "Congratulations, you have earned yourself a position as a City Watch."
