   Summary

   The tourney of Harrenhal was meant to be a time of new beginnings. A regency for mad king Aerys. Long-arranged marriages between the daughters of Lord Stark in the North and two southern lordlings. Alliances that would last a lifetime.

   An unexpected guest and a spate of murders destroy all those plans.
