Others insisted that Renly had killed the king in a drunken quarrel between brothers. Why else should he have fled in the night like a common thief?

Varys gave a long weary sigh, the sigh of a man who carried all the sadness of the world in a sack upon his shoulders. "The High Septon once told me that as we sin, so do we suffer.
