What If Robb Stark Sent Jeyne Westerling Away and Kept his Promise to Walder Frey

What if Robb Stark sent Jeyne Westerling away and kept his promise to Walder Frey? Picture the Crag on a wet night, rain drumming against the stones while Robb sits by a tallow candle with an arrow wound in his shoulder. In the history we know, he sought comfort in Jeyne's bed and broke his betrothal, a mistake that cost him his life at the Twins. Here, he thanks her quietly and shuts the door. Dawn finds him on the road to Riverrun, his word unbroken. How does Lord Walder Frey receive Robb when he arrives at the Twins to claim a bride? In the camps, Catelyn Stark and Ser Brynden Tully struggle to keep the northern lords united while Tywin Lannister writes his quiet letters from the south. Treachery still rustles in the reeds. When suspicion spreads along the Green Fork, Robb must cross the river with his eyes open and his vanguard ready. In Westeros, an honest oath usually buys a quick grave, but honoring his word keeps the bridge open and his men alive. Salt and bread seal the hall. Robb rides north from the Twins with four thousand Frey spears under the direwolf banner.
