"It may take several days for the people to settle, Your Grace," Ser Barristan said. "Five thousand men, women and children from the East need new Westerosi homes. But what you have done here is not without gratitude, and it is sad to say that these people have had worse."
Dany turned from the conversation to watch those stepping carefully off great ships, which could also be used as war galleys once the transfer of her people was complete, and she waved to them as they passed. They continued to call her 'mhysa' and reach for her despite the calm and well-fashioned order in which they were moving, and Daenerys couldn't help but notice that several of them had gained a bit of weight, so much that it shocked her to no longer see bones through their skin. They had all been cleaned, too, and redressed. While it brought the silver queen to life all over again to see her people so well taken care of, she knew she owed them a city. A Ghiscari city, one on the eastern side of Westeros that could also function as a valuable port. She distracted herself momentarily from such thoughts and turned to Robb and her counselors once again, chuckling at the thought of the High Septon's gasps to see a city in open worship of the Harpy.
"Shall we reenter the castle?" Dany asked, removing the dark cloak as little goosebumps rose on her skin. "We need to decide which men we will leave here and which to take with us to the Wall, and I think it has been quite some time since Ser Jorah has enjoyed a glass of wine from the Arbor."
"It has," he chuckled longingly, "and an even greater period of time since I have been in the presence of a Stark. I'm sure my family has served you very loyally in this war, Your Grace." He offered a friendly smile. "I was deeply saddened to hear of the loss of your father and family. I appears you and my queen are more alike than anyone would have thought possible."
"He is a good friend," she told Jorah while smiling at the King in the North. "Just as you have been. Come, it's very gold out here and we have plans to discuss."
