Qyburn tends Jaime Lannister's stump

After Robb Stark left Harrenhal, Qyburn stayed behind serving under Lord Roose Bolton. He tended to Ser Jaime Lannister's badly infected stump. During this Jaime notices that Qyburn is not a Maester, because he isn't wearing a maester's chain of office. Qyburn acknowledges this, explaining that he was stripped of his chain by the Citadel and thrown out of the Order of Maesters he was conducting experiments which they felt were too "bold". [2]
