That could be it. *NM* Stephen Send a noteboard - 21/07/2011 01:43:16 PM
At Mereen by the Yunkish. It sounds like these were the rest of the hostages, but I'm not certain. Do we know who these people were?

They might've been, but who were the other three then? They'd already returned the three unimportant hostages, so only three hostages left. And it seems rather odd to just add three random people to the three hostages...
