===In the Vale===
In the [[Eyrie]], [[Petyr Baelish]] is confronted by several of the lords of the [[Vale of Arryn|Vale]], who are unhappy with him becoming their de facto ruler after the death of Lady [[Lysa Arryn]]. One of the [[Lords Declarant]], whom Littlefinger bribed ahead of time, breaks custom by baring [[Lady Forlorn]] during the meeting. Littlefinger uses the insult to turn the tables on the lords, who eventually allow him to remain [[Lord Protector of the Eyrie and the Vale of Arryn|Lord Protector]] of little Lord [[Robert Arryn]] for the next year. Afterwards, Littlefinger discusses the deception with Sansa (who is posing as his bastard daughter, Alayne Stone) and is impressed at how quickly she picks up on the subtleties of his scheme. He reveals to her that if something should happen to little Robert, the Eyrie will pass to [[Harrold Hardyng]], a distant nephew of the house, and if Harry and Sansa were to wed, that would give her an army with which to reclaim Winterfell. Whilst Sansa thinks on this, the weather is worsening, a sure sign that winter is almost upon the Seven Kingdoms, and the household of the Eyrie move to the [[Gates of the Moon]] at the base of the [[Giant's Lance]]. During the move Sansa befriends [[Mya Stone]], one of the late King [[Robert I Baratheon]]'s bastard daughters. Sansa also becomes a new mother figure for sickly Robert Arryn.
