After staying overnight, Iger left Golden Tooth City with the Kingkiller.

Heading east along Riverwalk, he picked up his "little squire" in Riverrun, and joined up with the logistics baggage team waiting for him in Earl Harroway's town - with James Lannister, who killed the king twice, Arya Stark, who was full of thoughts of escaping marriage after a catastrophe, and a hundred soldiers from the north and fifty from the west, this strange team set out on the road north to the Great Wall.

In order to prevent possible clashes along the way, Egg simply took out dozens of sets of armor donated by Tywin in advance and armed them with the soldiers of the logistics department. Since the dye had been brushed in advance in Golden Tooth City, the black clothes and black armor were worn on the bodies of the soldiers of the Night's Watch Logistics Department, which was not obtrusive at all...... As a result, the team was all dressed in black, with the exception of Robb's soldiers from the North, and Jaime and his bodyguards were dressed exactly as Egg's men.

Egg couldn't help but admire Tywin's thoughtfulness: let Jaime wear black in advance, unless someone had the intention of killing the Kingkiller along with the Night's Watch...... Otherwise, even if you start a surprise attack, it will be difficult to find a target in the chaos.

......

Daddy launched a war to gamble on the fate of his family, and after paying a huge price, he "earned" himself the right to be exiled in black...... Humiliated by this, Jaime Lannister appeared decadent and depressed, and since the departure of Golden Tooth City, he has only silently followed the team, and has not said a word to anyone except for the necessary exchanges.

As for Arya...... After being spanked by Egger, she was probably full of resentment, and she didn't make noise along the way, and occasionally snorted and turned her head with him - in a child's world, "ignoring you" is probably a cruel punishment, and she may never have imagined: in fact, adults wish she could always be so worry-free.

The two troublesome guys in the team didn't get into trouble, and Robb's soldiers from the North didn't clash with the "volunteers" of the West who were already dressed in black...... In this peace, Eggle was at ease, leading this strange team of black and gray to rush to the destination without wasting any time.

＊＊＊

The northern and western borders have never been bordered in history, and the nobility of the two places had never been in direct conflict until Jaime attacked King Robert, and the relationship can be described as "the water of the well does not interfere with the water of the river". There are a series of reasons for the poor relationship between the two places, such as faith and culture, but in the final analysis, it is still influenced by the intimate relationship between the rivers and the impression that "Lannisters have no sense of honor".

Despite the poor reputation, Jaime did not actually infringe on the interests of the North, and he hid in the city of Castle Rock to recuperate during the war between the Six Nations against the West...... In this timeline, the Lannisters did not control King's Landing, and Jaime did not have a feud with the Northerners...... These are the actual reasons why Robb Stark finally agreed to make peace with the West, and his main vassals did not object.

The old wolf is not dead, and the decision made by the young wolf lord is more deterrent than imagined, and many things happen on the way to Neck Ze through the river, but no nobleman has jumped out to openly stop or even threaten Egg and Jaime. By the time he crossed the Neck and entered the West, the likelihood of Jaime being intercepted and killed was cut in half—if even the nobles of the Riverlands who had been burned by the Western Army could bear to let Jaime go, then what reason did the princes of the North who had not actually been violated have to kill the king?

This was only Egger's judgment, and even if there was no intervention from the nobles, the threat could come from many other sources: in the north, more and more wild people crossed the Great Wall to the south, in the east, pirates on the narrow sea also appeared from time to time to harass and plunder, and as the northern nobles and elite armies poured south, local bandits and petty thieves increased. The north is far from the battlefield...... But there are also dangers everywhere.

Out of an abundance of caution, Iger kept his entourage fully armed and vigilant, but to his surprise, trouble eventually appeared around him in a form that was completely impossible for him to guard against.

......

The northern territory is vast and sparsely populated, and after crossing Kalin Bay, you have to pass through a vast area of wasteland and hills called the Ancestral Wasteland, in which hundreds of miles of land are inaccessible, even in the north, where the population density is at the end of the Seven Kingdoms, it is also the most empty and bleak area.

The procession passed slowly and orderly, but Arya, who had been in a cold war with Egg for more than ten days, suddenly came to him with a sad face, and opened her mouth to startle people: "Master...... I...... I felt like I was going to die. ”

"What nonsense?"

"I ...... I was bleeding. ”

"Where? I'll see. ”

Arya didn't move, sniffing and blushing.

After staring at the girl with inexplicable eyes for a few seconds, Egger gasped, and his pupils gradually dilated: "Yes...... Below?"

"Hmm. Fear overpowered shame, and Arya had a blank and panicked expression: "It's been a few days, it was just a little bit at first, and today...... Suddenly it flowed a lot, and the pants were ......."

Egger's gaze shifted downward, and sure enough, the dark gray fabric had been soaked in blood near the base of his hips and thighs, forming a black patch...... The nose sniffed lightly, as if it could still smell a faint smell of blood.

Iger swallowed. Since he entered this world, he has faced both life and death crises and entrepreneurial problems...... With luck and hard work, coupled with the help of friends, he survived the difficulties again and again, but this time, he was really dumbfounded.

The girl in front of her was going through a significant physical change, and under normal circumstances, Arya would have been with an older woman like her mother, or at least Sister Modan, who would tell her that she was dealing with normal physiology, and patiently teach her how to deal with it and what to look out for......

But now?

Egger held his head in his hands and looked left and right as if asking for help: there were either men from the north or men from the west, and there were only a few logistics soldiers in the team who knew Arya's identity...... Within a radius of dozens of miles, I'm afraid that I can't find a second woman.

Is it normal for an eleven-year-old girl to come here?Is it because of the amount of exercise that Arya brings from practicing swords? What should I do now?

Arya looked up at Egger pleadingly, who was in a state of confusion and even began to regret taking the task of sending the guest home...... But his tried sanity quickly brought him to the point of his chaotic thoughts: no matter what, he had to take immediate action - whether it was for Arya's health or to keep her identity a secret.

......

As a hard-handed straight man, gender severely limits his imagination and intellectual field, and in the face of such magical things as his aunt, Iger has no relevant coping knowledge other than "drinking hot water" and "keeping warm...... But now that Arya is surrounded by only herself, even if she is hard-headed, Egger must think of ways to deal with the trouble that broke out in the most embarrassing moment.

......

"Stop the team and camp early today. Iger shouted to one of the guards not far away, "Set up a tent first!"

Egg asked Arya to find a place to sit on the side, and led the people to move themselves. The sun was still in mid-air, and it was at least two or three hours before dark, and most people were puzzled by the order to stop early, but no one had a problem with resting early. Soon, the tent belonging to Iger was the first to be erected.

"Okay, don't be cranky, and don't make a noise. Bleed...... It's normal, it means you've grown up! Go in and stay, I'll boil hot water for you, wash yourself later, and change your pants. Egg pushed Arya into the tent, pulled down the tent's curtains, and whispered, "Also, remember to put a towel in your pants!"
