Born mute, Genjo Stark had always had a hard time in life.
Without words he focused on the art of war.
Strategy, combat, politics. He was ready to help his brother and in being heir to Winterfell.
However, the beauty he was graced with, turns out to...
Genjo dreaded today, the day his family was being split. He decided he needed to get the good-byes out of the way, he didn't want a farewell to be rushed. The first person he goes to see is Sansa, the girl was in her room, packing, she turns when Genjo knocks on her open door, 'I see you've nearly packed', Sansa smiles at her brother.
"Of course, I'm excited to go to Kings Landing", she sits on her bed, sighing dreamily. Genjo smiles at the girl, "you know, I'm supposed to marry the prince, will you come down for the wedding?", she looks hopefully at her brother, her favourite brother, who always complemented her skills in dress making.
Genjo kisses her head, 'the seven hells couldn't stop me', he folds a few things that lay on her bed, 'you will be a beautiful bride and an amazing queen', she hugs him tightly, then steps back, a huge smile on her face 'be careful in the city, and send me a raven as soon as you can', the girl nods in response, kissing the taller boys cheek.
He then goes to Aryas room, when he walks in he sees her holding a sword, she freezes when she spots him in the door, "it's not what it looks like", Genjo only smiles, taking the sword from her hand, Arya relaxes when she sees her brother smile, "what do you think?"
He hands her the sword back, 'it's nice, a small blade for a small fighter', Arya smiles even wider, 'you won't be able to practice your archery in the capital, but never forget what I taught you', she nods at him, then begins to frown.
"I'm going to miss you, big brother" she throws herself at him, "but I love you, and I'll send you a raven when I get there", Genjo smiles at her, ruffling her hair before quickly kissing her head, the girl wipes her head, "ew", the older boy just huffs, pushing her back, making her giggle lightly.
He leaves the room and makes his way to the courtyard, seeing the last two people he needed to speak to. First he goes to Jon, placing his hands on his half-bothers shoulders, who jumps and turns, "how do you move so quietly?", Genjo only shrugs in response.
'So, you're really going to the wall?', Jon nods solemnly 'why don't you just stay here for a few days, think about it'.
Jon shakes his head, "I've got to go", he then hold his half-brothers face, "you know I have", the news of Jon leaving, broke Genjos heart, the two boys have always been close, despite Jon being a bastard Genjo always treated him fairly and they trained together everyday.
Genjo looks into the brown eyes before him, 'I'm going to miss you, Jon', this makes Jon smile.
"I'll miss you too, Genjo", they hug one last time, before Ned makes his way over.
"Genjo", the boy nods at his father, following him to his horse, "if you ever need me, send a raven", the mute smiles playfully, "not like you need me anymore"
'If you need me, send a raven father', Ned laughs at his boy, who has became a great lord despite his muteness.
"I am so proud of you son, truly", he kisses his boy on the head, then ruffles his dark hair, "now you behave while I'm down south, ok?", Genjo nods, crossing his heart. The action makes Ned laugh loudly, Genjo then stands with Robb, holding Rickon's shoulders as they watch part of their family ride away.
