iceandfirequotes:

Alyssa Arryn had seen her husband, her brothers, and all her children slain, yet in life she had never shed a tear. So in death, the gods had decreed that she should know no rest until her weeping watered the black earth of the Vale, where the men she had loved were buried. Alyssa had been dead six thousand years now, and still no drop of the torrent had ever reached the valley floor far below. Catelyn wondered how large a waterfall her tears would make when she died.
