“I suspect we must seem the same way to you ironborn.”

“A bit.”

littleshireen:

Oh, this one was made by a carver in King’s Landing whose shops my aunt visits.

He is a talented one then.

[sarra-harlaw]

littleshireen:

It’s a beautiful toy, don’t you think?

I wonder who made it.

[sarra-harlaw]

gwynxwhitehill:

“I do apologise if I offended you with I said, again. Most of the ironborn I have known, or at least have heard of, have always been rather uncivilized and temperamental.”

“We tend to be temperamental and we can seem uncivilized simply because we have different beliefs, opinions and understandings, compared to greenlanders.”

[sarra-harlaw]

gwynxwhitehill:

“I can’t say I’ve ever met an ironborn as courteous as you before, Lady Harlaw.”

“I.....thank you? It is not impossible to have a conversation with an ironborn. People can be prejudiced.”

[sarra-harlaw]

gwynxwhitehill:

“Oh, my mistake. There are several cadet branches of House Harlaw, so you’ll have to excuse me for my error.”

“Yes, do not worry. It is a common mistake for everyone outside of the Iron Islands.”

[sarra-harlaw]

gwynxwhitehill:

“Harlaw? That’s a house from the Iron Islands, right? So you must be from Ten Towers?”

“Yes, the Iron Islands. But no, not the Ten Towers. My father’s cousin, Rodrik Harlaw is of the Ten Towers. I am of the Tower of Glimmering.”

fire-and-blood-rhaella:

“I really wish people would stop spreading rumours about my sister.”

“What kind of rumours?”

[sarra-harlaw]

gwynxwhitehill:

“It truly is. My mother wore it for her wedding, and now I shall wear it for my own. I’m afraid I didn’t catch your name before, Lady…?”

“She must have looked beautiful on her wedding day. I’m Sarra. Sarra Harlaw.”

[sarra-harlaw]

gwynxwhitehill:

“That is sweet of you to say, my lady.”

“I think it is perfect for the occasion.”

[sarra-harlaw]

astrid-rivers:

“What makes you think you will disappoint him?”

“Because I am inexperienced.”

[sarra-harlaw]

gwynxwhitehill:

“It was my mother’s necklace. She’s letting me wear it for my wedding.”

“It is quite beautiful, my lady.”

[sarra-harlaw]

astrid-rivers:

“I hardly ever do anything that would be considered proper. You may ask whether it is or not.”

“How....not to disappoint a man during your first time sharing a bed?”

[sarra-harlaw]

bastardmyastone:

That’s life.

Oh, um…sure, I suppose. Mind you, I’ve seen a lot more of the real King’s Landing than most of the people at court. Where’re you from, girl? What’s your name?

I am from the Iron Islands. I hope that is not upsetting to you and you wish for us to continue the conversation. My name is Sarra. Sarra Harlaw. And what is yours? They didn’t tell me your exact name. I think they got tired of me babbling constantly.

[sarra-harlaw]

astrid-rivers:

“Ah yes, that as well.”

“Would it be proper if I asked you....something?”

[sarra-harlaw]

astrid-rivers:

“I would be in some deep trouble if I wasn’t, don’t you think? Lord Baelish had the sense to teach me much about business before his untimely death.”

“No, I meant.....when it comes to being intimate with someone.”

[sarra-harlaw]

bastardmyastone:

My, um…my father’s wife. Yes, I’m from King’s Landing. And, because of it, I now have to watch my back.

Why do you ask?

Oh. That is unfortunate. I suppose.

I’m asking out of curiosity. I have never been outside of home. And you seemed the least intimidating person to ask to tell me about King’s Landing. As long as you do not mind.
