Ser Mathys Ashfield:
Welcome new guy. If you decide to play a character, we need folks for house Ashfield. And besides, you get free balloons and cake when you join. ;)
House Saltwind does not offer you balloons or cake.
All we offer is opportunity. If you are strong and righteous you will take balloons and cake from those who do not deserve to have them. If you are weak of body or mind then all we offer you is an early death but one less ignoble than scratching out a living like a thrall. The Drowned God smiles on his servants but a man's fortunes are his own.
