In addition, they were compelled to add an additional twenty-percent (20%) to the principle, which was stolen or taken away.įor instance, if a thousand dollars was taken, twelve hundred dollars should be returned to the offended. If this occurred and they were found guilty, they were obliged to restore the item stolen, or the item received by their deception. God began by revealing the judgment if a soul sinned against God by lying or stealing from their neighbor. Ned decides that when it is time, he will tell Jon himself.We continue with the judgments against a trespass offering in Leviticus chapter 6 summary. Ned considers this for a while and finally agrees to let Jon take the black, though not until they are ready to leave for the south he wants Jon to enjoy his last few days. Maester Luwin mentions Jon's ambitions to join the Night's Watch. Catelyn insists that Jon must leave Winterfell, but Ned argues that there will be no place for Jon at court. Ned would never send Jon away though, and Catelyn could never forgive him that. There were rumors that Ashara Dayne was the boy's mother, but Ned forbade Catelyn to ask about it, insisting that all she needed to know was that Jon was his blood. She understood Ned fathering a bastard son, but could not understand raising a bastard in the castle. She remembers the bastard child that Ned brought back with him in the early days of their marriage. Maester Luwin asks about Jon Snow and Catelyn's anger flashes.
The house will be the safer for it, and Catelyn has to agree. Ned insists that Bran must bridge the gap between Robb and Joffrey. Catelyn reluctantly agrees, but begs that seven-year-old Bran be allowed to stay. He allows that young Rickon may stay with her as well, but the others must come south- Sansa to wed Joffrey, and Arya to learn the ways of a southern court. Ned then makes his decision: he will go, but Catelyn must stay behind to govern Winterfell and teach his heir Robb how to be a proper lord. Catelyn insist that if Ned truly loves King Robert like a brother, he will not leave him to face the Lannisters on his own. Luwin replies that that was a different time and a different king. Ned reminds them both that his father went south once at the summons of a king and never returned. Maester Luwin agrees with Catelyn, pointing out that the Hand's authority will help determine the truth and protect Lysa and her son. Catelyn insists that now Ned must be the Hand of the King, to find the truth behind Lysa's accusations. Catelyn immediately burns the message after reading it, but explains to Ned that the message claims Jon Arryn was murdered by Queen Cersei and her family. It is from her sister Lysa and written in a secret language only the two sisters share. Maester Luwin says he has not read it, and will not give it to Ned because it is addressed to Catelyn.Ĭatelyn takes the message apprehensively. The way it was delivered made the maester wonder and he discovered a message hidden beneath a false bottom. The maester is shown in and explains that a carved wooden box containing a fine new glass lens was left in his observatory while he was napping. They are interrupted by a guardsman named Desmond, who says that Maester Luwin has an urgent message. While Catelyn contemplates the omen of the direwolf killed by a stag, Ned wishes his brother Brandon had lived to be Lord of Winterfell instead.
Catelyn insists that he must accept so as not to offend the king, which might put them all in danger. The couple discuss King Robert's offer, which Ned intends to refuse. As she watches him from the bed, Catelyn thinks he looks the same as when she married him and hopes they have conceived another child. Uncomfortable with the warmth of the room, which is heated by hot springs beneath the castle, Ned opens the windows. Ned and Catelyn are in Catelyn's bedchamber after making love. A secret letter from her sister leads Catelyn to convince Ned to go to King's Landing and become the Hand of the King.
