Summary
(Story starts just prior to the arrival of Robert Baratheon and host to Winterfell.)
The booming voice of King Robert Baratheon, First of His Name, carried across the courtyard like a warning bell. Eddard Stark's heart skipped a beat as the words registered: "Hold the gates! Prepare for an assault! We're under attack!" His mind raced, the implications of the King's desperate cries colliding with the scene rapidly unfolding before him.
Robert's party charged through the gates, a frantic tableau of panic and urgency. Eddard's keen eyes quickly assessed the dire situation. The King himself, burly and imposing even in his current state, had his wife, Cersei Lannister, draped over his horse, clutching their daughter Myrcella. Ser Barristan Selmy and Ser Jaime Lannister, the Kingslayer, rode alongside, each holding one of the royal sons. Ser Sandor Clegane struggled to keep his horse under control with Tyrion Lannister clinging precariously to the beast...
...
Robert's eyes, bloodshot and wild, found Ned's. "Gods, Ned, they're coming. An army... a horde, unlike anything I've ever seen," he gasped between coughs. "We have to hold here. Winterfell must hold."
