The 3 Freys, before becoming pies, what did they confess to Manderly?


Lord Damian

Recommended Posts

In Davos's POV in Wyman's court room, the three Freys began telling the outlandish tale of Robb becomming a "warg" (described what we would call a wherewolf) and were smirking while they did so. Lord Wyman followed customs of guest rights and gave them gifts when they left. We know that they were turned into pies. Now, I suspect that these freys knew everything that went down at the Red Wedding, including Roose's murder of their beloved and heroic King Robb. My questions are what do you think they "spilled the beans" abouy and was it "all the beans" regarding the Red Wedding? Also, do you think Manderly has spread the word to the other Northern houses?


Implications for all Freys and Roose?

well Roose was there and he got away with no injury. Hell he was even appointed Warden of the North. If the Freys spilled the beans on Putin lookalike, which I think they did, since they were coward Freys, they did nothing but confirm what Wyman already knew. Very satisfying for him, undoubtedly, and there's the detail that Roose personally slew Robb, but nothing that Manderly or anyone else in the north didn't already know.
I don't think Wyman has spread the word either, he hardly could have had the chance since the death of the Freys, and I don't think he trusts the other lords so much as to let them in on his conspiracy. And think about it: to explain where he got the notion of Roose's doing he would have to admit to having slain the Freys, which could be dangerous given the amount of Freys that are staying at Winterfell.

Manderly didn't need any confirmation. All of the people who died were extremely loyal, including his son. To get any story from the freys with Roose bolting surviving combined with Ramsey Snow's actions in Hornwood and his story about the sack of winterfell was all Wyman needed to come up with a plan and set it in motion

I'm not sure they could have told Manderly anything he didn't already know. He knows the Freys broke guest right. He knows Bolton was more involved in it than he lets on. Roose actually killing Robb himself is an item of interest, yeah, but I'm not sure that'd make Manderly take action he wasn't already going to take. I also think it's general knowledge in the North. The only events that seem to still be hazy to them is how Winterfell was actually sacked, but it looks like Wex was able to clarify that. Whether Manderly and Glover shared that info with other is more of a mystery.

Anything they said would only have confirmed what they already knew. Roose Bolton's role in the RW is clear to everyone. As for Roose killing Robb personally, does it really matter? They're all guilty. And Lady Stoneheart knows that anyway but I'm not sure how she could get word to the northern lords.

If it became widely known that Roose killed Robb himself he'd be called a Kingslayer and his support would dwindle even more.
