So much for just being a simple soldier, I guess: I've just had a major impact on the power structure of the world. I free Stannis, along with Ellery Vance and Lord Clement Piper, who are also being held captive, and we storm the courtyard, taking down a handful of guards and escaping. He confirms it's Stannis, so I cleverly beat him to death with a big stick (politics!). There I approach the lone prison guard and ask him who he's got in jail. I head to the city of Hornvale (seat of House Brax), disguise myself as a peasant (it's not hard since I essentially am a peasant), and slip into the courtyard. Still, the opportunity of freeing Stannis, my chosen king, is too good to pass up. First, why trust me, a guy you don't trust, with this task? Second, why free Stannis when he's the one who has kept you imprisoned all this time? But a major flaw in ACOK is the large sizes of textures in many hard-to-notice things like small rocks and trees.

He doesn't trust me enough to let me serve in his army, but asks a favor: could I please spring his brother Stannis, my past king, from prison in the Westerlands? That seems unusual. ACOK is a great mod, I (used to) prefer it over A World of Ice and Fire. Eventually, I wind back up at Storm's End, where I run into King Renly, who has apparently escaped from prison (or perhaps was ransomed by Davos Seaworth). I head to Sunspear, capital city of Dorne, but they won't let me in, and I get captured by another Lord who also drags me around as a prisoner for a while. Sorry, guys! Enjoy prison for the remainder of the war. I finally escape, abandoning the two companions I had with me.
