Ser Edric makes his way from the Gold Cloak training grounds to the Royal stables after being summoned by Ser Brynden. He's sporting his new armor that was gifted to him by the princess during the tourney.
"Ser Brynden," he bows, "you called for me?"

"We are escorting the Princess out of the city within the hour, I would like you have a regiment of gold cloaks to escort us out, when we make it to Crossroad Keep, return half the regiment to Kings Landing and the rest shall come with us." He states.

Edric nodded, "Yes Ser, I will personally see you out of the city myself before returning with the men. I will have them ready and saddled right away."

"You will be captain of the Princess's guard while you are with us. You wish to be a Whitecloak, when we break I will test your skill." He states.

Edric swallowed to contain his excitement.
"Thank you Ser Brynden. That is a great honor. I will ensure the Princess' safety, you can be sure of it."

Lorraine arrived on horseback, followed by men driving a cart. There were two small trunks of her effects, not too much, but still too heavy and awkward to carry on horseback. She dismounted and directed the men to load the carriage.
She recognised Ser Edric Reed. "Ser Edric? Are you to accompany us?"

Ser Edric saw Lady Lorraine enter the stables, baggage in tow.
"Indeed I am Lady Lorraine. I will be the Captain of the Princess' Guard for your journey."

Aelinor soon arrives with her two bags of personal things as well. She dismounts, dressed in her cloak wrapped around her. "Please send a raven ahead of us to let the Eyrie know that we are leaving tonight,"she said to the servant.
Looking at Lorraine,"So this is it.."

"Then I know we are in good hands." She was glad to see Ser Edric. Even one more familiar face would be welcome on this journey.
She watched Aelinor arrive. "Yes it is. Are you ready? Do you feel nervous?"

Ser Edric bows to the Princess as she enters the stables.
"My Princess, you are looking well today. You must be excited to begin your adventure."

Aelinor smiled, nodding,"Yes I am a little nervous, I guess..", looking around herself,"This is the very first time I have ever been away from this place." She opens her cloak looking down at her boots and pants. "I have never dressed like this.."
She looked at their escorts and nodded,"But I do agree with you, Lorraine. We're in good hands, the were picked by father, and trained by my uncle. We will be fine."
"And I thank you, Ser Edric."
