Septa looked at the Stone Lord, who had a hard time believing everything. However, he couldn't really get any argument to turn around the situation.

No matter how he said it, it didn't change the fact that the Plant Lord was suspicious. After all, there was no need for him to do all this if he wanted to escape.

And if that was the case, he would have returned already.

He could say he was a deserter, but because he wasn't from the army, he wouldn't really get punished.
