Chapter Sixty-Six - Theon 6 - A Clash of Kings | A Song of Ice and Fire (ASOIAF)

Theon is surrounded. Ser Rodrik Cassel has amassed Northern forces to surround and retake Winterfell. At the 11th hour, Theon is saved by Reek, who has brought hundreds of Bolton men. But Reek wants more than just Theon\\u2019s good wishes. Simon and Mackelly weigh the treacheries.

Chapter Review:
Maester Luwin advises Theon Greyjoy to yield Winterfell. Ser Rodrik Cassel has brought perhaps 2,000 loyal northmen who have Winterfell surrounded. Theon doubts Luwin\\u2019s loyalty, but the maester reminds him that he serves the Lord of Winterfell, who is Theon (kinda).

Theon gives the ironborn a rousing speech, but only 17 rally to his cause. The rest flee back to his sister Asha. Ser Rodrik wants to parlay and Theon rides out to meet him. Cassel is twitching to kill the turncloak, but Theon has a trump card. At a signal, Rodrik\\u2019s daughter Beth is paraded on the walls with a noose around her neck. Theon tells Rodrik that she dies at sunset and another citizen will join her every morning and night until the besiegers withdraw. Cassel offers himself in Beth\\u2019s place, but Theon\\u2019s not buying.

Luwin suggest that Theon take the Black. Theon considers how high someone with his training might rise in the Night\\u2019s Watch. But before he can answer, sounds of fighting are heard. Reek has returned, with hundreds of mounted Bolton men. They decimate the other northmen and kill Cassel and others. Reek reveals himself to be Ramsay Snow, Roose Bolton\\u2019s bastard. Theon is grateful, but Ramsay\\u2019s men are not done. They knock Theon unconscious, run Luwin through, and are ordered to burn the entire castle, save the Frey boys.
