After the death of his mother, Lady Lysa Arryn, the young Lord Robert Arryn takes to wandering the Eyrie at night so he can sleep alongside others in their beds instead of his own chambers in the Moon Tower. Since Robert comes to prefer Alayne Stone's bedchamber the most, she has Ser Lothor Brune lock Robert's door to keep him in his own chambers.[1]
When Lord Nestor Royce arrives at the Eyrie to meet with Lord Petyr Baelish, Alayne is sent to the Moon Tower to bring Lord Robert to the High Hall. Alayne finds that the young lord has been crying again, so she, Gretchel, and Maddy prepare Robert for the audience.[1]
Alayne goes to Robert's chambers when it is time for the Arryn court to descend from the Eyrie to the Gates of the Moon. Gretchel warns that Robert had thrown his chamber pot at Maester Colemon. Alayne convinces Robert to get out of bed by promising to tell him three stories once they reach the Gates of the Moon, and that Lord Nestor will have lemon cakes available.[2]
