[Davos tosses Melisandre the now-charred stag carving he had made for Shireen; Melisandre looks down in shame]
Jon Snow : What is that?
Davos Seaworth : Tell him. Tell him who it belonged to.
[a long pause]
Melisandre : The princess Shireen.
Davos Seaworth : Tell him what you did to her. Tell him!
[another long pause]
Melisandre : We burned her at the stake.
Davos Seaworth : Why?
Melisandre : The army was trapped, the horses were dying... it was the only way.
Davos Seaworth : You burned a little girl alive!
Melisandre : I only do what my Lord commands!
Davos Seaworth : If he commands you to burn children, your Lord is evil!
Melisandre : We are standing here because of him. Jon Snow is alive because the Lord willed it.
Davos Seaworth : I loved that girl, like she was my own. She was good, she was kind, and you killed her!
Melisandre : So did her father... so did her mother. Her own blood knew it was the only way.
Davos Seaworth : The only way for what? They all died anyway! You said Stannis was 'the one'; you had him believing it. You had everyone fooled, and you lied.
Melisandre : I didn't lie! I was wrong.
Davos Seaworth : Aye, you were wrong. How many died because you were wrong?
