Chapter Review:
Arya Stark, Gendry, Hot Pie, Lommy, and Weasel (the new name given to the crying girl) head back to the holdfast in the daylight. They bury Yoren and find three comrades still alive. Kurz succumbs to a wound, and the other two abscond rather than throw their lot in with Arya’s crew. Lommy is injured and must be carried. Weasel has stopped crying.

Continuing north around the western edge of the God’s Eye, they find a village not entirely abandoned. Arya and Gendry check it out and determine that it is Lannister troops who inhabit it. Gendry is captured, so Arya returns to the others to solicit Hot Pie’s help in a daring rescue mission. Lommy wants to abandon Gendry - but Arya convinces Hot Pie to help.

Hot Pie makes enough noise as they enter the village to have them both immediately captured. Arya comes face to face with Gregor Clegane, the Mountain that Rides. Hot Pie cracks under questioning and leads the troops back to Lommy. Weasel has scarpered, and the Lannisters are unwilling to carry Lommy, so they run him through.
