A different guard brought south by Lord Eddard Stark. Surely he should know what Fat Tom and Lord Stark are up to?

Success

At Kirth's instruction, [Your Sworn Sword] joins Tom on his rounds and soon learns that the letter is bound for Dragonstone.
Fat Tom speaks with a Captain Qos, and [Your Sworn Sword] quickly learns that Qos will be taking Tom to Dragonstone, and then back to the North.
Everywhere Fat Tom goes, Kirth or [Your Sworn Sword] is waiting to get in his way. Soon Tom allows the truth to slip out - that the letter is bound for Dragonstone.
Kirth drops a few falsehoods about Tom. "He's bound for Dorne, you know." Soon another guard corrects Kirth with "No, Dragonstone, then the North."
None of the other Stark guards will do it, but [Your Sworn Sword] finds a few willing royal guards and soon learns that Tom is bound for Dragonstone.
Kirth sets [Your Sworn Sword] on one of the younger Stark guards, who gets so angry that he lets Tom's destination slip: Dragonstone.

Failure

Kirth and [Your Sworn Sword] learn that Tom will be delivering the letter to Dragonstone soon. Tomard is upset when he realizes they've learned this. (Not necessary to repeat; +1 Wound)
