Catelyn

Catelyn is still taking everything in she is shocked that Ned is dead and doesn't know if her heart will ever lift again. Her brother Edmure back from battle said that he would make the lannisters pay for the death of Lord Eddard but that didn't make Catelyn feel any better because even after that it wouldn't bring Ned back. She reminded herself that she had to stay strong and not think about Ned now. Catelyn then finds out that her dad is bedridden and has little time to live. He forbid anyone from telling her sooner because he feared if his enemies knew of his condition the lannisters would attack. Catelyn spends time with her father and updates him of everything that has happened. Robb tells Catelyn that Renly has claimed his brothers crown but they all thought it would be lord Stannis. The war council had brought upon a lot of arguing every lord wanted different things. Robb argues that even though Joffrey put death to his father it doesn't make Renly king and the thrown is still suppose to be Joffrey's. With whatever they decide Robb doesn't want to be a traitor. Catelyn suggested why not peace? She convinced them to want peace for a bit then the bickering continued. They decided to rule themselves.  And yell " KING IN THE NORTH." I like that Catelyn is starting to do some self evaluating noticing her flaws by looking at her past with her family and noticing how much Robb is just like Ned. I like that she is not acting out of emotion and making the right decision despite her hurt from loosing Ned. I also like how Robb is showing how ready he is to be in control, he is truly his fathers son and it is in full effect. I dislike that those of the war council can't see doing nothing as a good thing because hasn't enough been done after loosing so many people. I think they should go about it another way.
