Quotes 

• Catelyn Stark : We'll need plenty of candles for Lord Tyrion's chamber. I'm told he reads all night.

  Maester Luwin : I'm told he drinks all night.

  Catelyn Stark : How much could he possibly drink, a man of his... stature?

  Maester Luwin : We've brought up eight barrels of ale from the cellar. Perhaps we'll find out.

  Catelyn Stark : In any case, candles.

• Eddard Stark : [Catelyn receives a letter from her sister]  What news?

  Catelyn Stark : She's fled the capital. She says Jon Arryn was murdered. By the Lannisters. She says the king is in danger.

  Eddard Stark : She's fresh widowed, Cat. She doesn't know what she's saying.

  Catelyn Stark : Lysa's head would be on a spike right now if the wrong people had found that letter. Do you think she would risk her life, her son's life, if she wasn't certain her husband was murdered?

  Maester Luwin : If this news is true and the Lannisters conspire against the throne, who but you can protect the king?

  Catelyn Stark : They murdered the last Hand. Now you want Ned to take the job?

  Maester Luwin : The king rode for a month to ask for Lord Stark's help. He's the only one he trusts. You swore the king an oath, my lord.

  Catelyn Stark : He's spent half his life fighting Robert's wars. He owes him nothing. Your father and brother rode south once on a king's demand.

  Maester Luwin : A different time. A different king.
