(Third Person POV)
"So it's settled~" Genna chuckled, "Give Ellion a horse and the directions where the bandits were last seen and watch, Lord Brother. He will bring you their heads in no time~"
Tywin raised his eyebrow, "You seem quite confident in this young brat's skill." He said, "What makes him so different than an anointed Knight?"
Genna fanned herself and smile, "You will wait and see, right?" She said, "There's a reason I have him as my personal guard, aside from the fact he was Old Lyonel's boy. He's really good with that sword of his."
Ellion shifted, knowing there was another meaning to what she said.
Tywin looked at Ellion, "It's settled then." He said as he leaned forward and began to write on a paper, "Go to the stables, give them this note. Have them give you a horse. Afterwards, head to the Lannister Army camp several hours to the East."
He then folded the letter and gave it to Genna, who gave it to Ellion. He proceeded to write another letter, his face as calm and cold as it was when he walked into the room.
"You will hand Ser Trevor this letter." He said with a serious expression, "He holds the information to Qhorvos and his men. They were last seen on the roads near Golden Tooth. And make no mistake, you are to do this alone. I will not have anyone aid you, since you claim you can do it yourself."
He handed the letter to Genna, who gave it to Ellion.
"Right." Ellion said
"Now go." Tywin said, "Leave my sister and I alone."
"And do be sure to come back in one piece, Ellion~" Genna said with a smile, "I'd hate for my bodyguard to perish on his heroic quest~"
Ellion nodded and turned around, leaving the room and closing the door behind him. Tywin was a bit unsettled by how heavy the air became when he had done so, but showed no signs of it on his face.
"Genna." His voice was serious and firm
"Yes?" Genna looked at her brother
"Do I need to know something?" Tywin's cold gaze set upon his sister
"Not necessarily." Genna smiled, "Why do you ask?"
"If I find out that you are not performing your duties as a wife, I will not be able to defend you." Tywin said, "You may be my blood, a Lannister. But know that you are still a woman. A scandal like that would bring shame to our House."
"Oh, I know." Genna smiled, "Above all, I am a woman. And a woman needs someone to protect her, right? Do you truly think any of the Frey Knights are going to do that, Tywin?"
"I admit, they are below average, those Freys." Tywin said as he crossed his arms, "But do you truly think that boy is capable?"
"He's more than capable." Genna smiled, "If you'd let him in the-"
"Bastards do not partake in Tourneys." Tywin said seriously, "Do you wish for me to insult Aerys by allowing that brat take part in a Tourney thrown in his newborn son's honor? Do not speak of this again."
"Very well." She said softly
"The preparations are going about nicely." Tywin said, "Soon, the others will come down. I expect for you to be on your best behavior."
"I will." Genna kept fanning herself, "Will our brothers be here for the Tourney?"
"Yes." Tywin said, "Tygett is in a rather foul mood; do not poke at him."
"Ah, good ol Tyg." Genna chuckled, "Very well. Do I expect to see my beautiful sister as well?"
Tywin nodded, "Yes."
"Surely, Cersei and Jaime will be clutching onto her dress." Genna said, "Oh, and little Tyrion~! I've forgotten about him."
"Hm." Tywin simply said as he stood up, "We are done here."
"I expect your cutthroat to do the job."

(Ellion's POV)
"Does Lord Tywin truly expect for me to give some brat one of my best horses?" The stablemaster said as I stood in front of him
I shrugged, "I don't know what to tell you." I said as I gestured at the letter on his hand, "That's his handwriting right there, you're not going to defy your lord, right?"
"Hm...." He said, "I don't know about this."
"Do I need to go get him yourself?" I asked, "I was right with him."
"This doesn't have the seal of House Lannister." He said, "How do I know that it is his?"
"You're right, it doesn't have the wax." I said with a frown, "Maybe the dickhead did it on purpose."
"Hey now, don't go referring Lord Tywin as such. That's a crime, you could get hanged for that." He scowled at me
"Give me a fucking break." I gritted my teeth, "Just give me the damn horse."
"I'm telling you, I don't think this is-" he started, "Oh! Lady Genna!"
I looked back to see Genna being escorted by two guards.
"What seems to be the issue?" She asked
"This red-haired brat is telling me that Lord Tywin wrote this letter." The stablemaster said, "Saying that I should hand a horse over to him."
"Yes, that is correct." Genna said, "Give him your best steed."
"Wait, it is true?" he said, "But....."
"What, you think that my Lord Brother is playing a game with you?" Genna asked, "I saw him myself write that letter. Do you wish for me to fetch him and tell him that a Stablemaster is doubting his word, his law?"
"N-No, My Lady." He said, "I'll get it done."
"Saddle his horse up." She said with a firm tone, "Ellion, walk with me. I require to speak to you."
She walked to the side and I followed alongside her, seeing that the guards didn't move.
"What is it?" I asked
"Do not mess this up for yourself, boy." she said with a hushed tone, "I will vouch for you however much I can. But if you do this successfully, you will be in good graces with Tywin. I assure you."
"Hm." I said, "I doubt that. I'm no idiot. He's sending me off alone so I can die."
"Don't say that." She said with a chuckle, "Besides, you won't die. Right?"
"Of course not." I smirked slightly, "Who's going to satiate My Lady's lust?"
"Fufu~" She said, "If your quest is a success, I have a reward for you, my boy~"
"I can imagine what the reward is." I said as I glanced at her cleavage, which aroused me, "And don't worry, I will return with Qhorvos's head. It will just take some time to find them, that is all."
"Do make sure to return by the time the Tourney starts." She said, "That way, I can enjoy you while everyone is busy with the Tourney preparations."
"As you wish, My Lady." I said with a smile, "As I head out...."
"I will think of your figure, to boost my confidence."
