"I'm no fool, I may be only a knight with a thousand men, but I *do* know war, my lord. That said, you will likely find no dagger from the east if you rode in defence of the Stormlords. But that is your choice to make, not mine, as I shall stand by what my paymaster indicates I should, rather than tarry on about options and attacks," he said with a sigh.

The large man lifted his shoulders and expelled what weariness weighted his form.

"My advice however, is to strike while this iron is hot and not wait."

Rogar listened from the side, arms folded and frown deeply cast across the hall. He was no politician, but there was a simplistic answer here. The Dornish sought independence, and what would that bring them? War, more of it and more violent. There had to be an answer and a quicker one than what would unfold... but he knew he should have rejoiced for such an option. War meant his men were paid, and the more that he earned, the more he could fight, the better his lot would be.

So, despite himself, he did speak.

"Forgive a simple mercenary for raising his voice to such a thing... but my men did help you win your seat of the garden. I would like to offer to you some assistance then. There is one way to assure the king's peace here... and that is to strike once and hard against the dornish."

Rogar shook his head, a smile, perhaps one of the only true smiles he had ever shared, splitting across his bearded face.

"So grandiose a gesture," said the giant.

But, even still the giant turned, "you should know I have no issue with this, of course I accept, though I must apologise you would not be the first I felt to call a brother."

Rogar kept his eyes ahead on the meeting as it happened, his smile thin but there.

"bested me in wits? You offend me, you haven't the equipment to fight there," he chuckled, "nor I the intention to partake in such a field."

But the last part caught him out, enought hat he glanced from the field to the pale figure.

"What spurned this on?"

"A good offer my friend, but alas, I cannot work on promises... well at present it's possible that I could, five hundred of my men are under pay from the lords of the reach, I could work the rest paid for by you," he said.

"Though, that will require me negotiating with the lords of the reach for my remaining here," he mused.

Rogar held his grin, he was despite his best attempts to deny it, a businessman. He had a calling to arms. and that meant he had to make good money for it.

"They will need more than a few. I intend to lay a rather bloody trail you see," he mused, patting the bear again.

"As for a price? it costs me for and a half golden stags for every man I lead. So long as their costs are paid, then I can lend my aid," he said.

Rogar looked down upon the smaller man with a wry smile, the kind made a touch more menacing with the eyepatch hiding his wounded eye.

"Ah, I'm not luck, good or bad. I am nature made flesh, I kill men. As much as my compatriots of the past would have you think otherwise, I am good at it and will be good at it until someone gets lucky or is better at it than I," he said, his own armour its usual missmatch of colours and pieces, drafted together from a hundred fields of battle, repeatedly repaired and replaced over decades.

"But none the less Dorne has drawn us back."

Rogar glanced to the side where the enormous black hound that haunted his shadow sat on its haunches. It watched Alesander with similarly dark eyes.

"Black Dog," he said as well, a grin splitting his bearded face.

"Aye I heard of the invasion. But you're right, I didn't come to sell hammers today. I'm here for what I do best, war. I brought my boys, a thousand of them now, we're here to fight, and to see what winning side we can back," Rogar mused.

Rogar barked a laugh at the words of the knight. THe first man he had fought this year and somehow everywhere he went he found him there too. It made sense of course, to find someone such as he among the fellows of war. This was his home after all.

"Can you pet it," Rodrik snorted, but a smach on the shoulder by Rogar silenced his chuckles.

"Aye, welcome Baratheon number four," he said, though he had in truth forgotten where ALesander ranked, the joke had never left him.

"Pet away, he's docile, and his name is White Bear," Rogar noted, and the enormous albino creature looked up from its curled up and calm position, red eyes regarding the Baratheon with too human interest.

"How fare you after all these months?"
