Cat and her rag-tag group make their way to the Eyrie on the dangerous High road, with her captive Tyrion. Along the way, they're attacked by a mountain clan, Tyrion pleads his innocence to Cat, and he makes progress in his situation as captive. We go along for the ride and give you our thoughts and ideas. Simon also shows how sometimes one can be just a tad too cute with a turn of phrase for one's own good.

Chapter Review:
Tyrion Lannister realizes he's not on his way to Winterfell, like he thought. Instead he's on his way to the Eyrie. This puts a major crimp in his plans, as any help he's hoping for is heading up the Kingsroad not the High road. He finally gets a chance to talk with Catelyn Stark about her accusations of his involvement in the plot to kill Bran. He insists he's too smart to arm a hired murder with his own weapon, and that the weapon isn't his anyway. She's hit with momentary doubt but all thoughts of the issue are pushed away when a group of men from a mountain clan attack them. They fight off the men, but lose three of their own in the process. Tyrion tells Cat that Petyr's story has a flaw. Tyrion would never bet against his family.
