Synopsis

Marillion is singing day and night. Because sky cell is open his songs can be heard through the whole castle. Although Marrilion has a beautiful voice Sansa does not like the sound of his singing. She asks Petyr if he cannot silence her. Littlefinger explains Sansa that they need Marrillion. With some persuasion Marillion has confessed that he killed Lysa. In return for his confession Littlefinger has left him his life and his voice.

Petyr tells Sansa she has to confirm Marrillions confession. Sansa knows that Marrillion did not murder Lysa and hesitates. She has no pity for the singer, he tried to rape her, but she is afraid that people will see through her lies.

The next day Nestor Royce and his son arrive at the Eyrie to examine the murder of Lysa Arryn. Although she is afraid Sansa tells the Royces that Marillion killed Lysa Arryn. Her fright and tears only makes her more convincing. Then Marillion is led in. He tells that he killed his mistress because he could not bear the thought of seeing her married to Petyr. The Rocyes never liked Marillion and don’t question his confession. They agree that Marillion will be brought back to the sky cells. Eventually he will fall or jump to his death.

Nestor then informs Petyr that his cousin is gathering other lords to have Petyr removed as Lord Protector of the Vale. Littlefinger already knows this and is unnerved. As a reward for his services he presents Nestor with a grant that makes him and his descendents hereditary Lords of the Gates of the Moon. The Gates of the Moon are a secondary castle that has always been in the possession of the main Arryn line. Nestor had been appointed castellan but now acquires the castle is his own right. According to Petyr Lysa had already decided to give the castle to Nestor but was murdered before she could sign it so. When Nestor Rocye and his son have gone away he explains to Sansa that they will now be on his side. If Petyr will be removed, the grant for the castle will be challenged because it was signed by Petyr and not by little Robert!

That night when Sansa goes to sleep Robert creeps in her bed as he had been doing since his mother died. He asks Sansa is she is now his mother. Sansa says yes because she knows this lie will sooth him.
