Chapter 292 Melisandre’s and Silas’ Past

Wearing a scowl on her face, Melisandre exuded an almost hostile aura as she led the way back to her estate. Clearly whatever Silas did in order to keep Otis' acceptance as a member of the Roost had heavily upset her.

No one dared ask her anything during the flight back from the Hall Masters' meeting chambers, and they could all only wonder what exactly had happened.

When they finally arrived back at Melisandre's estate, she held a meeting with everyone in attendance to tell them what had occurred and plan their next step.

"To start, Silas must have called in a large number of favors just to spite me in this issue. He got multiple other Hall Masters on his side and brough up long forgotten precedent from when the Roost was still fairly new." Melisandre said, practically grumbling.

She then explained that far in the past, long before her time, the admittance of any new owl required the permission of three of the Roost's top brass.
