That is not Royce. So where is he?

He is obviously still significant due to his two meetings with Sansa. Will there be a big plot twist involving Arryn? Arryn is another one who hasn't had his story arc tied up.

I doubt many that many would disagree with your logic however it may be that you have not really thought about this.
Prescriptions are already £8.40. However they are free if used in hospital.
