===''A Feast for Crows''=== When walking to his meeting with the [[Alchemist]], [[Pate (novice)|Pate]] barely avoids being spaterred by night soil from a woman who empties her pail to the street from her window overhead.{{Ref|AFFC|Prologue}} [[Cersei Lannister]] complains to the [[High Sparrow]] about the night soil the [[sparrows]] and their [[Bestiary|animals]] have produced around [[Baelor I Targaryen|Blessed Baelor]]'s statue in the [[plaza]] outside of his [[Great Sept of Baelor|Great Sept]]. The High Sparrow retorts the holy place was only befouled by the execution of Lord [[Eddard Stark]] ordered by [[Joffrey Baratheon|her son]].{{Ref|AFFC|28}} At the [[Second Siege of Riverrun]], [[Edwyn Frey]] suggests that [[Riverrun]] will fall, if Ser [[Brynden Tully]] dies. Thus he proposes to stage an attack on the castle, then target the Blackfish with archers whose arrows will be smeared with night soil when he comes to lead the defense. The proposal is dismissed by Lord [[Karyl Vance]] and Ser [[Lyle Crakehall]], who consider such an approach ignoble.{{Ref|AFFC|38}} During one of his tantrums, [[Robert Arryn]] empties his [[chamber pot]] upon Maester [[Colemon]]. The maester is forced to leave to wash the night soil from his hair and change his robe.{{Ref|AFFC|41}}
