A Feast for Crows
Ser Lyn accompanies the Lords Declarant to the parley with Lords Petyr Baelish and Robert Arryn at the Eyrie. Lord Nestor Royce claimed that Ser Lyn rarely left the side of Lady Lysa for nearly half a year. During the parley, Ser Lyn grew tired of the conversation and threatened Lord Petyr with his sword, violating the Laws of Hospitality. Ser Lothor Brune moved to intercept, however it was the intervention of the other Lords Declarant that caused him to put up his sword. Ser Lyn left the parley shortly thereafter. Later, Lord Petyr told Sansa Stark that Ser Lyn was in his employ, and it was his task feign hatred for Petyr and to join every conspiracy against him and inform on them. Littlefinger states that his price is gold and boys, implying that Ser Lyn is a pedophile.[7]
