Sansa pages 293-304

          This chapter was about a jousting tournament, Sansa and Septa Mordane accompanied by Jeyne Poole were seated watching the tournament. Ser Gregor was riding his second joust of the day when he struck the other man in the neck, the end of the lance broke off into his neck killing him. After the tournament Sansa and Septa Mordane went to the feast afterwards, she sat next to Prince Joffrey. They talked all night long and then she was taken back to the castle.
          I think this is an important chapter because it give you the eyes to see the relationship Sansa and the Prince have together. They get along very well, even after the death of her wolf. They are able to talk and he has told gossip of the court and even had someone escort her home. I liked this chapter because it kept the excitement with the jousting tournament and it gave a side with much affection, I am much for the love story type. This chapter also told the story behind Sandor Clegane's burned face and what actually happened. How his brother, Gregor had found him playing with his toy and picked him up and pushed his face down on burning coals, how it took 3 grown men to pull him off of him with gregor only being eleven or twelve years old. Their father had told everyone that the boys bedding had caught fire instead of the real story, he was angry about that and told Sansa before he left that if she told anyone, he would kill her.
