"My brother provides an escort for my safety," Sansa explains. "No matter the place, men are terrible and cruel at times and beautiful women are usually unsafe when traveling alone. I was particularly unsafe back home because I was a queen with a large territory and while I am unknown here, I am still a woman and still at risk of the dangers that come with being born one. My brother likes for me to have an escort, yes, but..."

Sansa sighs a little and tries to decide how best to explain it.

"I am frightened to be without protection. Provided I am with someone that I trust, I do not mind being away from Jon and honestly, he does deserve a break from me. No man wants to be hampered by his sister all hours of day and night. As it is, I would like to go have tea with you. There is a place called the Ivory Bloom. It is a bit out of the way but the tea is very good."
