Ruby

After getting dressed James saw a small child out the corner of his eye he turned in shock but noticed it was just a mirror and that he had been returned to the age of nine (James was fourteen)

James ran to the mirror and started poking and pulling at his checks , his face was soft and cute ,his eyes appear to have heterochromia and mostly blue with a hint of violet ,lastly his hair was blonde with a slight red gloss which could easily go unnoticed

James spent a while poking at his face when he heard the door behind him open causing him too jump in nervousness

When he turned around there was a beautiful red haired woman in his room ,her face was pretty and mature also she was quite tall

???-" Ryker its time to get up your uncle is waiting for you in the courtyard."

James/Ryker-(I guess I'll have to pretend to be a nine year old for now)"I'll head out right now ruby"

Ruby-"Ruby? That's a new one" (she said with a comforting smile)

James/Ryker-"because of your crimson hair milady"(James said jokingly)

Ruby-"o lets not leave your uncle waiting."(Ruby said blushing and heading towards the door)

The two of them talked on their way down to the court yard James/Ryker learned that ruby is cousins to Ser Barristan Selmy and that everyone is going to ride to Kings Landing

When they reached the bottom of the tower the sun was shining but the ground was still muddy from the rain

Ruby said goodbye to Ryker and walked to the dining hall

Ryker looked for his uncle Beric and he found him standing next to the main gate to the castle so Ryker ran over to him

Beric-"Good evening ,you seem well rested are you ready to leave"(Ryker expected his uncle Beric to be 13 but he seemed much older)

Ryker-"yes but I have to pack my things?"

Beric-"well hurry it isn't a good idea to keep the king waiting "

Ryker breaks into a smile and runs to grab his things ,he decided to bring a bow ,quiver , black cloak,dirk,and a changed of clothes

Then he hopped in the lead carriage with Beric and headed to King's landing along side the 50 men accompanying them

As Ryker got comfortable he finally had time to think about where and who he is

(now in the world of a song of ice and a member of a noble house named Dondarrion he is the nephew of a lord named Beric who is of average wealth and status compared to other nobles and is about to head to king's landing to join the royal party to head towards the iron islands to secure their loyalty)
