At Riverrun Robb Stark find out what Rickard Karkstark did and he wanted to punish them while Catelyn Stark remembers what Aera just told her.

"Is that all of them? It took five of you to murder two unarmed squires?" Robb Stark spat at the man.

" Not murder, Your Grace. Vengeance." Lord Karkstark firmly said.

"Vengeance? Those boys didn't kill your sons. I saw Harrion die on the battlefield and Torrhen-"

"Was strangled by the Kingslayer. They were his kin."

"They were boys! Look at them." Robb yelled.

"  Tell your mother to look at them. She killed them as much as I."

"My mother had nothing to do with this. This was your treason."

"It's treason to free your enemies. In war, you kill your enemies. Did your father not teach you that, boy?"

BRYNDEN punches RICKARD KARSTARK.

"Leave him." Robb order and Brynden move asides.

"Aye. Leave me to the king. He wants to give me a scolding before he sets me free. That's how he deals with treason. Our King in the North. Or should I call him the King Who Lost the North?" Lord Karkstark Taunt the man.

"Escort  Lord Karstark to the dungeon. Hang the rest."

"Mercy, sire! I didn't kill anyone. I only watched for the guards." One of the men said and Robb looked at him.

"This one was only the watcher. Hang him last so he can watch the others die." Robb ordered and the knight nodded and takes the traitor out of the room.

Robb Stark sits at the table frustrated about what the man did to the kids, they are innocent. They shouldn't have died, just like that.

"Aera was right" Catelyn mumbled making the three turn to her. Edmure, Talisa, and Robb.

"Aera?" Robb asked. Catelyn turned to his son and walked towards her.

"Aera is the girl who sends those letters, Robb. The letter telling that your brothers are alive!" Catelyn said.

"You talked to her without telling me!?" Robb spat at his mother.

"Because she's the only know where your brothers are!" Catelyn spat back, she didn't regret talking to Aera, she knows she could trust the lady as she had been sending letters to Sansa.

Robb was taken aback. "What did this girl tell you?" Robb calmly asked even though he was burning with anger.

"A Predecessor with a vengeful heart will remove the air from youngsters to quench his thirst. To repay what had been a loss but what will be the outcome... " Catelyn said as she remembers what the girl said. " She's giving me a warning about, Lord Karkstark but I didn't listen," Catelyn said and she turned to the boys who died at the hands of Karkstark.

"How can she knows what was about to happen?" Edmure asked and Catelyn didn't know.

"Whatever she knows, it has happened. I wanted to talk to the girl, Mother" Robb said he's been curious about who she is. Catelyn just nod.

Know they tackle what to do to Rickard Karkstark, but in the end, Robb didn't listen to his mother.

Aera was there when Robb beheaded the man she planned to stop it but she was late, fate decided that Rickard Karkstark would die that day.

Aera stands on the corner and her body was soaked in Rainwater. She didn't understand why her ability to teleport didn't work until she remembers what Visenya said. Her powers are connected to her energy without energy it won't work.
