The Riverlands: Notable Events in the Riverlands: The Flaming String
  • The Flaming String​

    History does not remember whether or not the Blackwoods’ claim that Raventree's great weirwood was poisoned by the Brackens are true, but with members like the late Lord Jonos the False Knight it becomes much easier to believe.

    Lord Jonos’s reign might have started with good intentions, but it ended in the flames of retribution. For his cruelty against his subjects and many heinous crimes against the womenfolk, he was finally arrested, tried in the Great Sept of Baelor and executed in the plaza before it.

    6N11_xbO3QkglDAfDjvHD6-qSuQ0u0j5MFCzEyA3zWAwpiA5s0P7YpDfHuMDg33uNbGxLn_Njq8SQKSx-PBtgzkicnYLCfWiBSrczRRwAMJq57XGa_cvgw1lNCGKollbpzWugYx8


    Lord Jonos had five daughters by three different wives, and two bastard sons, although his rival, Lord Tytos Blackwood, staunchly maintained his belief that the older, Harry, was not fathered by Jonos.

    Lord Jonos’ oldest daughter, Lady Barba, was married to Lord Paramount Edmure the Confessor of the Riverlands. Their marriage is covered in one of the recent chapters.

    The second daughter, Lady Jayne, was married to the careless Lord Tristifer Mallery of Blackwater Rush. She bore him a son and two daughters and died in great shame and sorrow that her husband’s lust brought her. Lord Tristifer remarried to a poor dwarfish woman much younger than him, Lady Jeyne (probably so he would not have to remember a new name) of House Buckwell, gave her the same disease that brought so much grief to his previous wife, had another daughter and finally died at the age of six-and-sixty. Miserable Lady Jeyne remarried to her distant kinsman namer Ser Rhaegar (no doubt an another attempt to win favours with the ruling family), but died from the disease her previous husband gifted her with.

    Lord Jonos’ third daughter, Lady Catelyn, was married to Lord Marq Piper of Acorn’s Ridge until his tragic and nonsensical death in a trial by combat at the age of just six-and-twenty. He left behind two young children with their uncle as a regent. Said uncle, Lord Marq’s brother Ser Lewys, then proposed to his brother’s widow. They had another two children together before Ser Lewys’ own death at the age of eight-and-thirty. Lady Catelyn mourned her two husbands for the rest of her life.

    The fourth daughter of Lord Jonos, Lady Bess, was married to Lord Lucas, son of Lord Tytos the Protector of Blackwood. Their marriage is covered in the previous chapter.

    The youngest daughter, Lady Alysanne, was married to Lord Karyl Vance of Wayfarer’s Rest until his death at the age of seven-and-fifty. She managed to have a bastard daughter with her husband’s brother in between her legitimate children, but the sickly girl did not survive infancy.

    Lord Jonos always had a problem with male children. His borderline obsessive desire for a male heir resulted in two bastard-born sons.

    The life of Colmar Rivers, the younger of the two, was already covered in the previous chapter.

    The older one, Ser Harry, was eventually legitimised as Lord Jonos’ heir but died before his father. He was married to Lady Lorra, another bastard-born daughter of the famous Brandon Stark. After her death Ser Harry was devastated. His father hastily pressed him into another marriage but Ser Harry followed his true love just three years after. His second wife, already a widow once herself, returned home with no hard feelings.

    Ser Harry and his Lady Lorra had six children, five survived to adulthood.

    Their oldest daughter, Lady Crynna, is an odd case that will be covered in the future chapter.

    Their middle daughter, Lady Kyra, is married to a westerman Lord Ilyn Ferren of Thurrock. They have a son and two daughters (all married and with issue).

    Ser Harry’s youngest daughter, Lady Alicent, is married to Ser Steffon of House Massey. The pair does not have children and if the rumours about Ser Steffon’s state of mind are true, it is probably for the best.

    Ser Harry also left two sons, this time not marred with any paternity disputes.

    The younger, Ser Aegon (just for the beauty of the name, of course), is married to Lady Bella of House Staunton. It is interesting to note that Ser Aegon has a peculiar interest in the ancient faith of his namesakes.

    Ser Aegon’s daughter, Lady Syrella, is married to Ser Gerold of House Grafton as his second wife. They do not have any children together yet.

    After Ser Harry’s death his older son, Lord Robb the Rash, became the heir apparent. He became the Lord of Southstone after the infamous trial and execution of his grandfather, the False Knight. A shrewd and honest man and a formidable fighter, Lord Robb could have restored the good names of House Bracken if it was not for his cowardice and lust that he must have inherited from his notorious grandfather.

    Lord Robb and his wife, Lady Mariya of House Staunton, had four children, although only four are still living.

    Their oldest daughter, Lady Rhialta, was found abed with one of the household guards when she was just six-and-ten. When it became apparent that she was with child, Guy, the father, swore an oath of loyalty to the Brackens and begged for her hand. Lady Rhialta threatened to run away with her lover, so her soft-spined father gave in and blessed the marriage. The pregnancy resulted in a stillbirth though, much to the sorrow of the mother. She became obsessed with bearing another, living child. She did that a few years later but died shortly after herself. Now already a knight and an acknowledged master of command, Ser Guy still serves his briefly father-in-law as Master-at-Arms. His son, Harys, is a squire full of hopes of knighthood “like his dad”.

    Lord Robb’s other daughters, Ladies Tyressa and Merianne, both married a westerman and moved away from home. Both have children of their own.

    Lord Robb’s only son and heir, Ser Elmo, is a boy of six-and-ten (another knight that does not know which point to stick with, what happened to the knighthood?). He is yet unmarried, but there are talks of a possible watch with a girl from House Bullhart.

  • Crossing Over​

    The Late Lord Walder Frey always was a cautious man. So he prudently died before the new Queen had even arrived as if he knew that she would shudder in an utmost palpable disgust at the mere mention of him.

    OUhjiSXKSUm4HlmLTEdH01-zLr3Lo_Z1irMiYlaVLm416_lvvkkj5BH1UJwowhDMYZ2G_JKEQHNIQqICJRuS_uMuYAxhm1paYPwkORlzQ7M6zqQ4778VrQQEtLzhS6GHyczPbNkg

    Walder Frey by Karina Zajac - Egekan

    It did not prevent her from naming his twentieth son, Ser Colmar, as one of her first new Queensguard. The boy then died within a year under most suspicious circumstances, an episode that prompted the Queen’s earlier paranoia to almost spiral out of control and moved the plans for reorganisation of the guards to the foreground.

    T_npIgO2Dm_QXECy173EVqEGVo8Qd-T-BgLV7Ts2E_YlCliSb6a9v_t_2uUW_TzPYDwjl9VDbePGCdJUDpZYOAbXh41g1hAoLsVf-BkzP-8KjCWw7WYNvmogu1iqd1huolTUlJKL


    Although Lord Walder did not do the things the Queen despised him for, he still managed to earn his share of disgrace when for his final grand act of rulership he executed his own great-grandson based on utterly ridiculous allegations.

    NpuF4t-dykCcqKaIMiWwp9bSpg2vhTHVavqjK0KbTipvysg-8lt6VnLmylepi3Gk2Hw4-6XUjmur3Cg0XdTxRetybc52NbeBdTXlWn-AwN6QUaRhBx4MXm9fnSwS0U5AY-Pv_oR4


    If only Lord Walder had died a year earlier and the poor boy’s grandfather was a Lord already.

    But alas, Lord Stevron, who has been waiting for his father to die for forty years, succeeded him too late to save his grandson and only ruled for a meager two years himself.

    His dull-witted son, Lord Ryman the Drunkard, was next.

    His sons became the center of the household drama.

    First was the youngest, Petyr. He got involved in some sort of shady dealings and was promptly sent to the Wall, but he deserted and in his fear of retribution ran all the way to Hyrkoon where he died of the Grey Plague at the age of eight-and-sixty.

    Then Lord Drunkard died and his remaining sons, Lords Edwyn the Downcast and Black Walder, brought the drama to its peak.

    Lord Edwyn wanted a son. But when his wife, Lady Janyce of House Hunter, finally birthed one, both castles and the middle tower already knew that she actually bore him a nephew. Huge fight broke out and Black Walder and his posse retreated to the self-imposed exile. Lord Edwyn and his wife never reconciled although they did have two more children together, a girl and a stillborn boy. That stillbirth shattered Lady Janyce’s resolve and she died of grief at the age of three-and-forty.

    That was the time when Lord Edwyn went out to a nearby town of Sevenstreams. The accidental result of that encounter was later elected as the town’s mayor and serves amicably ever since despite his ailing body.

    Lord Edwyn eventually remarried to Lady Barbara of a minor House Nayland, vassals of the Freys. They had a daughter and Lord Edwyn died at the age of six-and-fifty.

    And this the crisis of succession broke out. Lord Edwyn had three legitimate children, all daughters, all married into other families. And the remaining Freys did not want to be ruled by some Blackwood, Westerling or Terrick.

    That is when the exiled brother, Black Walder, decided to return. He claimed his birthright and became the next Lord of The Crossing. He managed to have his bastard son legitimised as a proper Frey, sire another bastard with the daughter of a passing hedge knight and find himself in the shackles on his way to the Wall, all in a course of a year. He then promptly died of a brothel sickness at the age of nine-and-fifty.

    His ill-begotten son, the gallant Lord Ryman, is the current head of the House. He was seemingly happily married to Lady Crynna of House Bracken until that convoluted story involving poisons, treachery and a possible collateral by the name of Ser Androw. Lord Ryman remains in mourning and is often seen with a thousand-yard stare, mindlessly stroking a locket with unruly black hair.

    With the death of the promising Ser Anrow, his only son, young Lucas, is in line to inherit the Lordship. His mother recently remarried to Ser Lewys of House Piper who is seven years her younger.

    Lord Ryman’s daughters, Ladies Lorra and Jeyne, married into westerlands families and reside there with their husbands.

    Lord Rymans spare heir, young Lucas’ uncle Forrest, is also married to a westerlander. Fleetingly exotic-looking Lady Rylenna of House Lefford is the second daughter of Lord Erwin of The Golden Tooth and the first child by his new wife.

    Lady Haenyra hails from a short-lived House of Hepastys. Her father was tasked with recolonisation of the region of Protosh in Essaria, but this rulership ended with his death. It would seem that Lady Haenyra’s charms were not enough for the old soft-hearted duelist of the Golden Tooth for there is an actual feud going on now between the grievously offended Lady Haenyra and her unfaithful husband. The offence is named Amarya Hill. She is the daughter of the aforementioned Lord Erwin (obviously) and the wife of his own grandson, which only adds to the fuel of family drama. The child itself seems very alert, with a pair of brilliant wise eyes full of new potential and so much promise.

    In the years following the Restoration, House Mallister fell on hard times. Lord Jason’s only son and heir, Ser Patreck, tragically died without issue at the age of just three-and-twenty. His grieving father followed his beloved son four years later.
    vBqJRe7g9V8LdIdoqk2TlijsEdyL7IceQZlgMAnTRy4cgxGQO5gc7RjtovFkbnqk2NoKS413ITBsJVNlv9Fb2Sur4R61cPx7vNMQv71whUUM78nuybF3-3vrlnndIxJcIPKfSgax


    Lord Jason’s oldest daughter, Lady Sarya, was married off to the Lord of the newly-formed Martlet Bay.
    V7GEi4FeneUKWJUh56N7MH9CnSjUm1gl2vExBd3n6aBq_eky5UMOCbGSnbiGxFgpEg85-7Ay7u0LBulTrgUvI9n4XTjazu7ByH13ouCIwt4E1PbWzTjgswUuGkwB7MpMymfcIcv1


    So it was the Warrior’s younger daughter, the Black Lady Minisa, who succeeded her father as the Lady of Seagard. She was married to a knight of Frey’s, but due to his lesser standing all their children were regarded as part of the Mallister family instead.
    zX7iU7ImGuJEMR0pGy_8HXeY6jA76ydUONp3XXOjs4en_E8OBfTNXtq5a9e8K39SqJEccU3bvvjzhohIMSdfrtdlbjK1lg5WiU76pR5hI9I9gmxhCSPKTMwBjy57KGkCl6gjy6Po


    The pair had four daughters and one living son.
    Lady Minisa provided the land for all of her daughters except one, a cruel jest from a cruel woman towards her least favorite child.

    The oldest, Lady Hostella, got herself the biggest slice of the pie - the Cape of Eagles. She then managed to repel an unauthorized ironborn raid on her lands. One of the reavers named Sigfry Pyke, bastard of Stonetree, was wounded and captured alive. His father was not keen on paying the ransom, so it seemed that Sigfry would leave the Cape’s dungeon straight to the gallows. But to everyone’s surprise he left it for the Lady’s bedchamber. It is hard to imagine more opposite people than the kind, brave and honorable Lady Hostella and short-tempered and fickle-minded coward Sigfry, but they actually were very much in love and produced four healthy children whom they both utterly adored. Ever since Lady Hostella’s unfortunate and untimely death at the age of eight-and-thirty, Sigfry has been drowning his sorrow in any bottle he could get his hands on.

    All of the pair’s daughters are married into respectable families throughout the Realm.

    Their only son, Lord Perwyn, is the current Lord of Cape of Eagles. He is married to Lady Barbara of House Haigh.

    Lord Perwyn’s aunt, late Lady Hostella’s sister, was granted a castle of Seawatch. She is married to Ser Quincy Waters, bastard of Mallery.

    All of their children are married to the members of other respectable Houses.

    Another daughter of the Black Lady Minisa, Lady Orissa, was given a castle of Rawmarsh. She is married to Ser Walder, bastard of Grell, although it is widely believed that Lady Orissa would’ve very much preferred to have another Lady as her consort.

    Both children from the Rawmarsh branch are in proper marriages.

    Lady Minisa’s last child and the only daughter to be left without a fief to call her own is lady Wynafrey. Poor woman has been born with her feet disfigured and unsightly, an unfortunate trait that gained her the mocking nickname of the Vulture. Despite that she is married to Ser Edmund, a knight of House Grafton. It is a tender and loving marriage (Ser Edmund even killed his own distant kinsman in a duel after the latter dared to disrespect his wife), but it is yet to produce any offspring.

    After Lady Minisa’s death her only son, Lord Clarence, became the Lord of Seagard. He was married to Lady Janeya of House Vance (of Wayfarer’s Rest) and had six legitimate children by her.

    Before those six however he had a bastard born to a merchant’s daughter. The child, a beautiful girl named Ryella, later married an heir to the Twins, but he died at the age of just eight-and-ten leaving it up to poor lady Ryella to raise their only son and a new heir of Frey. Not long ago lady Ryella remarried to Ser Karyl, a knight of House Chambers.

    Lord Clarence’s legitimate daughters are both married outside of the Riverlands.

    Lord William of House Mooton, Lord of Maidenpool, died a natural death at the age of two-and-sixty.

    His oldest daughter, lady Eleanor, was married to Ser Patreck, a knight of House Vance (of Wayfarer’s Rest). The pair had difficulties conceiving a child until their forties and when it seemed like a miracle was finally on it’s way, lady Eleanor’s body gave up under the stress. In hopes of having an offspring Ser Patreck took another wife, an able-bodied lowborn woman named Ceryne, but died without issue. His widow then disappeared and was rumored to be seen in the lands of Omber where she allegedly died at the age of four-and-thirty.

    Lord William’s younger daughter, lady Catelyn, was married to Master Alyn of House Blackwood, the Knight of Muddy Hall. She died of grief, unable to bear witness to her husband’s decline from his debilitating illness.

    Lord William’s younger son’s tale is an interesting one.

    Ser Jon was married to lady Marianne of House Perryn and given a castle of Huggate as his wedding gift. The pair had two sons: Ser Lothar the heir and Ser Luthor the spare.

    Ser Lothar was married to lady Olene of House Meadows until her rather mysterious death in the year 339AC, not long after the birth of her stillborn son. It is widely accepted that the father of this child was not her husband, but her husband’s father, Ser Jon, who followed in their footsteps and died from a questionable cause just a year later. Ser Lothar remarried soon after that.

    Ser Lothar’s daughter by his unfaithful wife ran away from her father and ended up far East, in the lands of Yi Ti, as a second wife to the father of the current Prince of Piqui.

    Ser Luthor the spare also left along with his niece and ended up in service of the famous Queen Corianne of Trader Town (will definitely be covered in future Chapters). A woman named Leana showed up at Maunhill claiming to be Ser Luthor’s lawfully wed wife and the mother of his two daughters. The woman is ravaged by brothel sickness and some other kind of rot of the flesh as well, so her claim seems doubtful at best.

    Ser Luthor does actually have two daughters though. His eldest, lady Marianne, is freshly married to young lord Lucas of House Frey, the heir to The Crossing.

    Even though Lord William’s younger son is much more entertaining, we can not ignore his elder. Lord Myles succeeded his father as Lord of Maidenpool in the year 326C. He was married to Lady Zia of House Frey.

    Their oldest daughter, Lady Edmaria, is married to Lord Lucamore of House Buckwell, Lord of Antlers. Despite Lady Edmaria’s unfortunate facial features, the marriage is one of love and mutual respect.

    Lord Myles’ only son, Lord Davos, succeeded his father as the Lord of Maidenpool in the year 332AC. He was married to lady Eldera of House Blount. They managed to produce a son before Lord Davos’ mysterious death at the age of just six-and-ten, just two years into his lordship. Lady Eldera later remarried to Ser Mychel, a knight of House Redfort. After his death she came back to Maidenpool and settled alongside her only child.

    Lord Donnel is the current Lord of Maidenpool. He is married to Lady Karene of House Waynwood. Both parents seem to be feverishly overprotective of their two sons, especially their oldest, who is currently being hidden in an undisclosed location.

    Lord Clement was succeeded by his oldest son, Lord Marq. He was married to Lady Catelyn of House Bracken until his rather embarrassing death from a self-sustained wound in a trial by combat (he literally stabbed himself through the eye). Lady Catelyn remarried to Lord Marq’s younger brother, Ser Lewys.

    In her youth lady Lysa, Lord Marq’s daughter, eloped with Ser Kenric, a knight of House Karlton, but they were caught by her brother and Ser Kenric died in an ensuing duel. Lady Lysa was already pregnant though, so their son was later given his own castle as a gesture of peace. Lady Lysa then remarried to Lord Hoster of House Grey. Their daughter is the current Lady of Stoney Sept.

    Lord Clement also has a daughter born out of wedlock. Young Lady Dianessa Rivers was born to lady Alysanne, Lord Clement’s very distant kinswoman. Lady Alysanne is married to Ser Jammon, another distant member of House Piper. It would seem that this unusual happenstance was consensual and agreed upon by all the affected parties as Lord Clement’s last attempt for a son.

    Lord Norbert of House Vance, Lord of Atranta, had five sons. His youngest, Jon, became a maester. His fourth, Ser Kirth the Clumsy, was so ravaged by gout that he never married and died without issue.

    Ser Ellery’s son, Ser Symond, was married to lady Bellena of House Roote. After Ser Symond’s death at the age of eight-and-twenty, lady Bellena took a man named Dagmer as her consort, a lowborn ironborn with an unknown parentage who previously already was a consort to an ironborn woman, Meredyth of House Towney, who was executed by the Queen herself for her attempt to murder her brother’s children.

    Lord Lucas of House Vance, Lord of Wayfarer’s Rest, was married twice. His first wife is lost to history, but his second wife was lady Cersei of House Broom, already a widow at the time of their marriage.

    His only daughter, Lady Saranna, was married thrice. Her first husband and the father of her four children was Ser Elmer of House Lorch. After his tragic death she remarried to Lord Tywin of House Kenning, Lord of Kayce, as his fourth or fifth wife. After his death she came back home to Wayfarer’s Rest and quietly married Ser Raynard, a lowborn hedgeknight.

    Lady Saranna’s second husband, Lord Tywin, the second of his name, was a peculiar fellow. For his love of one-on-one duels, especially the hand–to-hand one involving wrestling, and his habit to caress his opponent’s sore spots after their duels he became known as the Softharted Duelist.

    He also was married four or five times, depending on one’s opinion on his third liaison.

    His first wife, lady Orielle of House Payne, had an affair with another man. Lord Tywin, ever the softie, just petitioned for the annulment of their marriage and did not pursue any other retribution against either parties.

    His second wife was Lady Rhonda of House Hewett. She died in the year 324AC under very questionable circumstances shortly after the arrival of a mysterious woman named Sharis who claimed to speak for the Valyrian gods of old and promised to give Lord Tywin a son.

    The pair lived as husband and wife for some time, but failing to fulfill her “prophecy” “lady” Sharis was quietly disposed of two years later.

    Next came Lady Alerie of House Hunt, but she died without issue from malignant ulcers.

    And then it was Saranna’s turn, Lord Tywin’s final wife and widow.

    Lady Saranna’s brother, Ser Jon, Lord Lucas’s second son, died in his bed in the year 327AC.

    His younger son, Ser Samwell, is married to lady Gwenda of House Templeton. Their only son, Ser Wendel, is an acolyte here at the Citadel, well on his way to becoming a fellow maester.

    Lord Jon’s elder son, Harys, was a master of Brookfoot castle before his exile, and his marriage life seems to be cursed. His first wife, Rosamund of House Darke, died shortly after their wedding from an unfortunate encounter with a stray dog she tried to bring inside. His second wife, Rowena of House Egen, was executed by Harys’ kinsman and liege for her plot to install Harys as Lord of Wayfarer’s Rest. Harys himself was exiled and his castle confiscated. He and his son Ser Jaime came to the court of Lord Roland of Runestone where Harys married Lythene, a lowborn woman he met along the way. She bore him his second son and then ran away with his first.

    Ser Jaime is technically married to a lowborn woman named Serra that came with him and his father to Runestone. They have two children together. None of that stopped Ser Jaime, a known lecher and hedonist, from getting involved in an inappropriate relationship with his step-mother and fleeing with her to Lorath.

    His daughter by Serra tries to distance herself from the family drama. She married Ser Raymond of House Erenford and hastily left for her husband’s family domain.

    Ser Jaime’s brother Ser Quenton, Harys’ son by Lythene, also fled from the scandal. He is serving as a sellsword with The Maiden’s Men. Rumor has it that he recently married a pretty dothraki girl, a descendant of a legendary horselord, and that she is a follower of the Old Gods. People come up with the wildest of tales!

    But let us leave the wive’s tales behind for now and have a look at Lord Lucas’s successor, his firstborn Lord Karyl, the first of his name. He was married to an unknown woman and maintained a long and open relationship with Lady Alysanne of House Bracken. He married Lady Alysanne as soon as he could. He also petitioned the Crown to have all of their children legitimized, which was granted.

    All of Lord Karyl’s daughters from both of his marriages married into respectable houses.

    His younger son, Ser Kermit, is technically married to lady Yolanda of House Grafton, but after she was found to be suffering from a brothel disease Ser Kermit left his home out of shame and humiliation and is now serving as a sellsword with the Second Sons. Their marriage is no more than a formality maintained out of respect to their son, Ser Tommen, who is deeply hurt by the whole situation and tends to hide from the world in his rooms.

    Lord Karyl’s older son, Lord Jammos, succeeded him in the year 329AC. He was married to Lady Vanera of House Caswell.

    Their youngest son, Ser Benedict, is married to lady Melara of House Lorch. He has been drowning his mind in all sorts of wine ever since the tragic death of his son.

    The third son, Ser Petyr, is married to lady Leonella of House Moreland.

    Lord Jammos was succeeded by his oldest son, Lord Karyl, the second of his name, in the year 350AC, but the new Lord died childless just five years later. His widow, Lady Walda of House Tully, remarried to the Lord of Stillfren, as his second wife.

    The current Lord of Wayfarer’s Rest is Lord Edmure, Lord Jammos’ second son. He is married to Lady Liane of House Bracken and is assisted in all manners of governance by his twin brother, Ser Petyr.

    The Vale of Arryn is the name of both a specific location and also the entire region. The region extends for roughly 500 miles from the Bite in the north to the Bay of Crabs in the south, and for roughly 550 miles from the Mountains of the Moon in the west to the Narrow Sea in the east. However, the east coast is heavily indented, with numerous bays and rivers cutting into the coast. The actual inhabitable land area of the Vale is significantly less than the Riverlands. This gives the Vale lords a greater sense of unity and identity compared to their fractious western neighbours.12

    An Honourable Flock​

    Another Lord Paramount to die before the Restoration was the Old Lord Paramount Jon of House Arryn who peacefully died of old age in the year 296AC. However his wife, poor Lady Lysa of House Tully, was convinced that he was murdered, so she put the whole castle under strict lockdown and settled in to rule in the name of her son, Lord Paramount Robert.

    a9K0cCkA_EhxYjgOnfhUMj02m7ELhajp2oK5mwLuizj1UYaoOUPNOwpOAsryAgvsx_aiqn83p_l58iNaqsbOE4Q5gfS16NMEHEp6nXqv22Hs3Ml-49y1Pu7Pga0DLNdQwz5Ijh7R=s0


    After the success of the Coup, Queen Daenerys, disturbed by the rumours coming out of the Vale, decided to take the road once taken by her ancestress Visenya, the very first queen of the Seven Kingdoms. That’s how she and Drogon ended up in the inner courtyard of the Eyrie and met up with Sweet Robin, a young and sickly boy.

    Lady Lysa was not Sharra though so after the most unpleasant scene the Queen decided it would be best to just take the boy with her to the Red Keep.

    He was then placed under the tutelage of Ser Barristan Selmy himself, and the boy thrived. Although he could not get rid of his stutter completely, he managed to overcome his physical weakness and became a formidable warrior and a true knight in his own right. To commemorate his knighthood the Queen bestowed him a sword with a pommel in the shape of a bird of prey. Lord Robert named the sword Talon.

    The Queen’s suggestion about his betrothal to Lady Teora of House Royce proved to be very fortuitous too. The pair met at the Eyrie when Lord Paramount Robert, by that time already called the Eagle, came back to take the reins of rulership for himself. They had a wedding in a fortnight and proceeded to have five children together.

    The pair’s daughters, ladies Demerei and Perianne, are married to the heirs of houses Redfort and Hunter respectively. Both have children of their own.

    Lord Paramount Robert’s youngest son, SerRandyll, unfortunately died at the age of just eight-and-ten in a trial by combat. His only daughter is betrothed to the heir of the Fingers. SerRandyll’s widow, Lady Alanna of House Strickland, later remarried to a knight from her own house.

    Their oldest daughter, Lady Carissa, was rather hastily married to the heir of Northweald, although the possible reason for that was born prematurely and did not live anyway.

    After the Eagle’s death in the year 355AC, his oldest son, Lord Paramount Dennard, succeeded him. Lord Dennard is married to Lady Wenella, sister of Lord Paramount of the Riverlands.

    No More Eagles in the Gulltown​

    At the time when Lord Robert was just a sickly boy, a dark cloud of uncertainty was looming over House Arryn. Late Lord Jon’s only child, Lord Robert’s heirs were traced back to a small cadet branch that split from the lordly branch in the reign of King Jaehaerys I Targaryen. But they too had fallen on hard times.

    Ser Creighton’s sister married into House Hardyng against their father’s wishes and was disowned for that. Their brother, Triston, died at the age of forty, but his promising son's death at the age of just six-and-ten was much more tragic.

    The future of his House fell onto Ser Creighton’s sons. But it proved futile anyway.

    It started when his youngest son, Arlon (now a fellow archmaester), ran away to join the Citadel.

    Then Ser Creighton’s middle son, Ser Olyvar, came to the Red Keep. He demanded “the boy-lord” was to abdicate and surrender his title as Lord Paramount to his father, Ser Creighton, as he was the eldest member of House Arryn at that point. Ser Olyvar went so far as to demand a trial by combat to resolve this issue. The issue was quickly resolved by Josera of the Queensguard, formerly known as the Bastard of Ironrath.

    After Ser Creighton’s death he was succeeded by his oldest son, Ser Samwell. He then lost his only son to pneumonia when the boy was only seven years of age.

    Ser Samwell’s oldest daughter, Lady Elyra, married the heir of her father’s liege, future Lord Creighton of House Grafton. After Ser Samwell’s death her second son, Ser Adrian, became the master of Gull Hall. He was married to Lady Deana, mistress of the nearby Gulltown Keep and one of the last members of the Gulltown branch of House Shett. They had a son, Waymar, but then Ser Adrian suddenly and rather mysteriously died at the age of just eight-and-twenty. Poor Lady Deana lost her mind after her husband’s death. There are whispers that a lowborn servant named Benedar impersonates her husband and acts as a de facto ruler of Gulltown Keep. The fact that Lady Deana had a daughter well after her husband’s death seems to confirm these rumours.

    Ser Waymar rules at the Gull Hall with his young and beautiful lowborn wife he brought from the Driftmark’s town of Hull. He is Lady Deana’s only legitimate heir. With her death the Gulltown branch of House Shett will be all but extinct.

    The fate was not particularly kind to the line of the Bronze Yohn of House Royce. Even if it let him live to an impressive age of nine-and-seventy, his descendants were not as blessed.

    Sir Oryn by Jim Nelson

    Lord Yohn’s oldest son, Andar, was married to Lady Alys of House Waynwood until her suspicious death at the age of nine-and-forty. Her death was unnervingly similar to that of her mother and her second daughter. Even though nothing was proven, it is widely believed that it was some kind of murder spree by an unknown rival, but was it a rival of House Royce or Waynwood remain a complete mystery.

    Lord Andar never remarried and ruled for a mere ten years after the death of his father. He died peacefully in his sleep at the age of sixty.

    He also had only one son, named Yohn after his grandsire. Lord Yohn was married to Lady Arwen of House Redfort until his own death at the age of nine-and-thirty in a trial by combat.

    Lord Yohn did not have any living sons, legitimate or otherwise, so he was succeeded by his uncle, Lord Robar the Gallant. At that time Lord Robar was serving in King’s Landing as a commander of a contingent of guards tasked with supervising one of our Queen’s most ambitious projects - the Restoration of the Dragonpit. When all of the debris, waste and junk was taken out, the ground itself was dug as well. It was there he had made the most wondrous discovery - Lamentation, Valyrian Steel sword of House Royce that was torn from the hand of Ser Willam Royce when he was killed during the Ride of the Seven during the Dance of the Dragons and carried off, presumably never to be found again, was finally found. After the death of his nephew, Lord Robar went back to his childhood home of Runestone and took the sword with him.

    Lord Robar and his wife, Lady Mia, had four children.

    Lady Teora’s marriage to Lord Paramount Robert of House Arryn was already covered in the main part of the previous chapter.

    The story of her sister, Lady Becca, is unfortunately a tragic one. She was married to Lord Benedict of House Belmore, Lord of Strongsong, until his death at the age of eight-and-forty. Despite his age, the death seemed natural to the maesters that examined the body. But unfortunately not to Lady Becca’s own son, the new Lord of Strongsong. Lord Lyn accused his mother of using witchcraft to murder his beloved father and actually executed his own mother in a most horrid way. It is widely accepted that naturally kind Lord Lyn was driven to it by his volatile and cruel wife, Lady Alyssa of House Ryger, who is believed to be ready to do absolutely anything to promote her own and her familie’s agenda.

    Lord Robar’s second son, Ser Renly, is still alive and well. He is married to Lady Leonella of House Waynwood as her second husband. They had two children, but their daughter had a story hauntingly similar to that of her aunt’s.

    Kind-hearted and timid Lady Janyra was married to Ser Hubert of House Melcolm, himself a kind and shy man. But Ser Hubert’s brother, Lord Humfrey of Old Anchor, accused her of witchcraft on the ground that she was always in her little garden growing something and his wife kept having miscarriages, and then he burned her before his whole court. Some say that there might have been some grain of truth there because her husband, widely known for his sense of justice, praised his brother for his actions and still considers him to be his closest friend. He also remarried rather quickly after that whole ordeal.

    Ser Renly’s son, Ser Ronnel, fortunately is alive and well. He is married to Lady Alynne of House Ryger. A very strong man and a formidable fighter, Ser Ronnel serves as his cousin’s Master-at-Arms.

    Lord Robar’s eldest son, Ser Merton, did not live to become a Lord in his own right. He died at the age of six-and-fifty. Despite his age, he was still a strong and healthy man, so his death does seem rather suspicious. Ser Mertin was married twice, but only his first wife, Lady Sherlyse, managed to give him living children.

    Their first daughter, Lady Eldrane, married Ser Raymund of House Tully. Their marriage is covered in the appropriate previous chapter.

    The second daughter, Lady Mya, became a knight in her own right and went off to seek adventures. This path led her all the way to Andalos where she met a prince of a newly reforged kingdom and became his Master-at-Arms. She later married the man for some reason, despite him being a third son and not that great of a person.

    Ser Mertin’s Robar’s only son, Lord Roland, succeeded his grandsire after the latter’s death at the grand old age of eighty. Lord Roland, a cruel and sadistic man, is married to Lady Ellyn of House Arryn (of Gulltown), his complete opposite.

    Lord Roland’s heir is married to Lady Carolei of House Arryn, the oldest daughter of current Lord Paramount of the Vale.

    Gates of the Bronze Moon​

    Another branch of House Royce seems to have put down roots at the Gates of the Moon. Usually a non-hereditary title, the prestigious post of it’s Commander had now been granted to three consecutive members of that particular branch.

    Another noteworthy member of that branch is the current White Cloak Ser Allard that serves as a personal guard to the heir of the Iron Throne. His only child, Ser Colin, is married to a woman from yet another branch of his big House.

    The Vale of Arryn: Notable Events in the Vale: Titan’s Little Finger
  • Titan’s Little Finger​

    It is unknown whether or not the rumours that Lord Paramount Eddard’s wife Catelyn had actually written any letters or not, but there are whispers that one of the main reasons that The Coup actually managed to go through was involvement of Lord Peryr of House Baelish. He knew about it brewing before joining it himself, of course, but some sources point to the fact that he actually planned to rat everyone out to then-queen Cersei before drastically changing course. For his support he was made the Lord of The Fingers and served as a Master of Whispers to Lord Paramount Robert of the Vale up until death. Unfortunately he died relatively young and the age of just five-and-forty. He left behind a wife that mourned him till the end, and their four children.

    Lord Petyr’s only daughter, Lady Jacene, had a sickly bastard son with one of the knights when she was just five-and-ten and then married a son of her father’s newly acquired vassal, Lord of Sunrise Keep, who was also named Petyr. The union actually proved fortunate. They are ruling together and seem to have a genuine love and affection between them and together they mourn the tragic recent loss of their grandson.

    Lord Petyr’s (Baelish) youngest son, Ser Corwyn, is married to Lady Jeyne of House Moore. Their only child, Ser Randyll, is married to Lady Cynthea of House Royce, daughter of Commander Nestor of the Gates of the Moon, the third consecutive Royce to hold this position and the second with that name.

    Lord Petyr’s eldest son, Lord Hubert, succeeded his father at the age of eight-and-ten, but died just a year after from what seemed like a heart failure. He was married to Lady Kalyra of House Redfort, already a mother and a widow at that time. She later remarried again. Their only child, a daughter, was a stillborn, so the Lordship of The Fingers went to Lord Petyr’s middle son, Lord Bryan.

    Lord Bryan was married to Lady Grenna of House Donniger, a kinswoman of his brother-in-law. They had two sons and a daughter.

    Lady Alianne was first married to Ser Humfrey of House Upcliff, but his fascination with the mountain men and their violent tribal ways led them into the service of the Long Lances, a mercenary company in Essos. He died in his first battle. Lady Alianne later remarried to Ser Florian of House Buckwell who is ten years her younger.

    Lord Bryan’s younger son, Ser Gerold, is married to a northern Lady Wylla of House Flint (of Widow’s Watch). Their only child, Lady Jessamyn, is married to Denys of House Melcolm.

    Lord Orton, the older son, became the new Lord of The Fingers when the life of Lord Bryan ended peacefully at the age of four-and-fifty. Lord Otron is also married to a northern Lady from the same House, Lady Olaria. They have two young sons and an oldest daughter. She was all but married to a boy named Marq from House Corbray, but he died at the age of just three-and-ten. She then eloped with a bastard-born knight from House Bywater. Her family seems to accept this, although it broke her mother’s heart (that, or maybe Lord Orton’s love of the bottle that is bigger than his love for her).

    The Vale of Arryn: Notable Events in the Vale: Gold for Four Generations
  • Gold for Four Generations​

    House Strickland has been proudly tied to The Golden Company from it’s very beginning, as if generations of exile and defeat were something to take pride in. But eventual return and rise of House Strickland is therefore inextricably linked to the dissolution of The Golden Company.

    When the Black Dragon was found, revealed and pardoned, two brothers from House Strickland, returned under the vassalage of the Iron Throne. As an older brother and the last Captain-General of The Golden Company, Harry became the Lord Harry of the Bite. His brother Reynard served as his right hand.

    The name of Ser Reyard’s wife is lost from the archives, but it is known that she was a lowborn woman he met somewhere in Essos. Their only son, Ser Hoster, was married to Lady Della, a widow of the Master of Seawatch. After her death the castle returned to it’s liege of Seagard and Ser Hoster donned the White Cloak.

    Most of his children remained at the Seagard. The oldest, Ser Elys, is married to Lady Tarissa from the very distant branch of House Arryn. Their daughter returned to the Vale and married Ser Nestor of House Wydman. Ser Elys also managed to have a bastard son with a very prominent Lady, but we will talk about that in a later chapter.

    The middle son, Ser Ambrose, was married to a woman from his own House as her second husband. She was much older than him and died when Ser Ambrose was not yet an old man, but he still did not remarry (probably because no-one wants to have a husband whose hideous physique ideally matches his personality).

    Ser Hoster’s youngest son also married his kinswoman, also already a widow. This marriage though seems much more balanced and already produced an heir to the lordship of The Bite.

    Lord Harry himself was married twice. His first wife, Lady Horonna, came from an esteemed House of Ilvar from Elyria, a small island east of the Valyrian peninsula. They were married before the Dragon’s Union and Lady Horonna came to Westeros with her husband. After her death Lord Harry quite soon remarried to Lady Jonquil of House Brune, who was much younger than him. Their only son died in infancy soon after his birth and was followed by his father within a year. Lady Jonquil never remarried and lived out her days in The Bite.

    Lord Harry also had a bastard daughter with one of his servant girls he brought from Essos. Said daughter, Karella, is married to Ser Cleaos of House Deddings.

    Lord Harry’s only legitimate daughter, Lady Sherlyse, was married to Ser Merton of House Royce. Their marriage is covered in the main part of the Bronze chapter.

    His youngest son, Ser Jaqaro, was married twice. His first wife, Lady Alys of House Lipps, managed to have a bastard son with an unknown father in between their legitimate children. Unfortunately both of her sons died in childhood. After Lady Alys’ own death Ser Jawaro remarried to Lady Janei of House Rykker, already a widow herself. They did not have any children together and after Ser Jaqaro’s death Lady Janei returned to the court of her beloved brother.

    Ser Jaqaro’s only surviving child, Lady Ursula, was first married to Dorey of House Marsh, a crannogman from the North. After his death she married her kinsman, Ser Ambrose. This marriage has been already covered earlier in this chapter.

    Lord Harry’s middle son, Ser Jaymond, was born in Essos and had been kidnapped (or sold) in his infancy. After his father became Lord of The Bite, poor Ser Jaymond found among those fortunate souls that had been liberated during the Queen’s campaign in the Free Cities. He had a boy with him he claimed to be his son, but refused to talk about the mother. After Ser Jaymond reunited with his family, he settled into a peaceful life and eventually married a lowborn woman named Willow that gave him another son. Both Ser Jaymond and his wife died peacefully in their seventies.

    The son that came with Ser Jaymond, Ser Roland, was declared legitimate and allowed to continue the Strickland’s name. He was married to Lady Crynna of House Lolliston until his death in a personal combat against his own kinsman. His wife then fled with her child and ended up as a camp follower in The Company of the Rose. Their only daughter never married and died from poor food just a year after her mother.

    Ser Jaymond’s second son, Ser Harry, did not fare much better. He was married to Lady Lady Idona of House Pryor until his death at the age of four-and-forty. A timid and just man not prone to adultery, he somehow managed to contract a whorehouse disease that ate up his mind, but it was not the one that killed him. He was taken by a horrible plague that bizarrely only affected him alone and went away with his death. Ser Harry’s wife then lived under the constant pressure of rumours that speculated that she was the one to bring those diseases and misfortune in their home, either from promiscuity or witchcraft. It is believed that this burden was the reason for her death at the age of eight-and-fifty. Their only son, Ser Jaymond, was married to his kinswoman, Lady Gwenna. Their marriage and his death will be covered later in this chapter.

    Lord Harry was succeeded by his oldest son, Lord Aeryio, who came with him from Essos. He inherited the enviable valyrian features from his mother, and most of his children inherited them as well. After the death of his wife, Lord Aeryio tried to drown his grief in a bottle, but ended up drowning his sanity as well. He then burned any and all mentions of her from every document he could find and died in a drunken stupor at the age of six-and-seventy.

    This erased woman (who is known to have come from Essos as well) gave Lord Aeryio six children.

    Their daughters both married into prominent families and had children of their own.

    The youngest of the six, Wallace, was first married to Lady Elonne of House Haigh. Their only daughter became a follower of the Old Gods and married a crannogman, Barthogan of House Fenn. After the death of his first wife, Wallace remarried to Yolanda Badics, a widow herself. They do not have any children together.

    The fifth child, Ser Maladon, recently had a tragic accident and lost both of his eyes. He is married to Lady Mya of House Crabb who patiently tries to help her proud husband cope with his new reality. Their only son, Ser Alyn, is married to Lady Ceryne of House Blanetree. They still hope to have a living son.

    Ser Illoquo was Lord Aeryio’s second son. He was married to Lady Kalyra of House Redfort. Ser Illoquo was taken from his family by a malignant growth. Lady Kalyra’s other marriages are discussed in the previous chapter.

    The pair managed to have a son before Ser Illoquo’s death. Ser Gunthor is married to Lady Joyeuse of House Bigglestone. Their only daughter married into House Piper.

    Lord Aeryio’s oldest son, Jormyn, was the only one of his children that did not inherit his silver hair. He was married to Lady Jelaenys of House Lipps. He also cannot be discussed without his own oldest son, Ser Robar, for they died on the same day for the same cause.

    Despite his bright mind, Jormyn was a cruel and cowardly man prone to fits of insanity. During a feast at the court of Lord Paramount Robert of the Vale he grievously wounded a servant in one of those fits and was put in one of the Sky cells. He then declared that Lord Paramount Robert is a bastard not fit to rule, demanded a trial by combat and named his eldest son, Ser Robar, as his champion. Ser Robar spectacularly lost the duel resulting in his father’s execution. Mad Lord Aeryio then proclaimed his grandson a kinslayer as in his feverish mind Ser Robar was responsible for Jormyn’s death. Despite that, Ser Robar’s son became the heir and eventually succeeded as the Lord of The Bite.

    But let us trace our steps back a little and talk about Jormyn’s other children.

    His only daughter, Lady Cersei, married Ser Bennard, the heir of House Boggs.

    The youngest son, Ser Symond, was first married to Lady Andreya of House Butterwell, a disgraced sister of the Lord Aegon of Butterwell who came to The Bite with her little bastard son. Unfortunately the boy died from a grey plague at the age of three, but Ser Symond and Lady Andreya had two other children together, both of whom are alive and well. After Lady Andreya’s death Ser Symond remarried to Lady Briar of House Wells. Unfortunately she is ravaged by a tumour and rarely leaves her bed, so the pair does not have any other children.

    Ser Symond’s daughter from his first marriage, Lady Aryse, is married to Commander Ronnal of the King’s Gate, son of Ser Lucos of House Darkhart. They make a striking pair together.

    Ser Symond’s son, Ser Colin, is married to his cousin, Lady Alanna, a widow of Randyll of House Arryn, Lord Paramount Robert’s son.

    The third son of Jormyn’s, Ser Harlan, is married to Lady Perra of House Terrick. Their only daughter, Marissa, is married to Clifford of House Dondarrion, all the way to the Stormlands.

    Jormyn’s second son, named Ser Aeryio after his grandsire, is married to Lady Elle of House Algood. Their marriage is a loving, but unfortunately a childless one.

    Let us now talk about another Jormyn, the first Jormyn’s grandson. Lord Jormyn became the Lord of The Bite after his great-grandsire, Lord Aeryio, finally died. Unfortunately Lord Jormyn was not very good with making decisions. He married a woman named Lysa Rivers, an incestous bastard from the Sisters with clear signs of this sin upon her body and health. And when a hedge knight pointed that out, he accused him of treason and demanded a trial by combat. He lost said combat both proving the hedge knight’s truth and his own inadequacy.

    This is how his sisters, Ladies Genna and Alanna, became the rulers of The Bite. Officially it is the older, Lady Genna, that is the head of the family, but it would seem that the women rule jointly despite some setbacks in their past.

    Both ladies had already become widows and remarried.

    Lady Genna was first married to her kinsman Ser Jaymond. After his death by the hand of Ser Randyll of House Arryn, she remarried to another kinsman, Lord Joseth, the youngest son of the late White Cloak.

    Lady Alanna was first married to that very same Ser Randyll of House Arryn that killed her sister’s first husband in a trial by combat. She then remarried to her kinsman, Ser Colin.

    The Vale of Arryn: Notable Events in the Vale: From Lords to Kings
  • From Lords to Kings

    The first Lord Badics that the Queen had the pleasure to meet during one of her visits to the Vale was Lord Paul of Moonsgrey. Despite the fact that for some reason official documents seem to be lacking information about late Lord Badic’s wife, my agents managed to find some interesting notes I believe to be the fragments from a collection of wishful stories written by Maester Eustace of Moonsgrey to entertain Lord Paul’s twins, the work that was long thought to be lost. These pages clearly state that Lord Paul’s wife was named Lady Hilary and that she was a beautiful woman with thick golden braids. It is widely accepted that the sorrow brought to him by her death killed Lord Paul in the end.

    Their daughter, Lady Calleigh, was married to Ser Edmund of Stonewatch. Their son is the current master of the castle. Ser Denys managed to live through the greyscale and although he was disfigured by it, he still lives and has a son and a grandson of his own.

    Lord Bryton was the next Lord of Moonsgrey after Lord Paul’s death. The information on his wife is also suspiciously lacking, but that woman gave him five healthy children.

    Lady Lyorena was first married to Ser Rymond of House Coldwater. Unfortunately Ser Rymond died after a feast and their only son followed him only six years after. Lady Lyorena eventually remarried to Ser Walton, a widower from House Grell. They do not have any children together.

    Lady Tarissa married Ser Theomar of House Smallwood, heir to the Acorn Hall. Their son, Ser Lucias, is a master of the Brookfoot castle in his own right after it was bestowed to him by his grandsire’s liege.

    Lady Yolanda in her youth eloped with the captain of The Dornish Spearmen and had a daughter with him. After Captain Andrey’s death Lady Yolanda remarried to Wallace of House Strickland.

    Sources from Dorne report that Valeria, Lady Yolanda’s and Captain Andrey’s daughter that was left with the Spearmen, just married Doran of House Martell, grandson of the Prince of Dorne himself. It would seem that the young squire managed to have his seed take root after his first adult night and him being an aspiring knight he decided to do the just thing.

    But let us get back to the Badics.

    Lord Bryton’s younger son, Ser Desmond, was married to Lady Aregelle of the northern House Long. After her abduction and horrible death at the hands of the accursed chief Rhis of The Stone Crows, Ser Desmond remarried to Lady Jacene of House Hunter. It would seem that chief Rhis is still alive and the death of poor Lady Aregelle is unavenged.

    Lady Brianne, Ser Desmond’s and Lady Aregelle’s only child, was so terrified of the mountain clansmen that she married Ser Manfred of House Wensington and lives far away from the Vale.

    Lord Bryton’s heir was his eldest son, Ser Jon, but he was unfortunately killed in a tourney by a hedge knight from Egenford at the age of just nine-and-twenty. Ser Jon’s wife, Lady Sherlyse of House Hardyng, never remarried and stayed in the Moonsgrey with their children.

    Lord Qyle, Lord Bryton’s older grandson, succeeded him in the year 336AC but suspiciously died just ten years later at the age of just thirty years. His widow, Lady Liane of House Cox, remarried into House Harding.

  • In the Red Fort Strong as Stone​

    The noble Lord Horton of Redfort died in his bed in the year 302AC at the age of four-and-sixty.

    His only daughter, lady Ursula, was married to Ser Nestor of House Royce, commander of the Gates of the Moon until her death at the age of two-and-fifty. Ser Nestor never remarried, whether because of his devotion to his late wife or due to his rumoured lack of interest in women in general (although the pair did manage to have four healthy children together, a fact that heavily contradicts that particular gossip).

    Lord Horton’s youngest son, Ser Mychel, was married twice. His first wife, lady Marsella of House Waynwood, died in delirium, her brain literally rotten away. Ser Mychel then married a very young widow, lady Eldera of House Blunt, whose first husband died at the age of just six-and-ten. Lady Eldera was forced to abandon her infant lordling son, but after Ser Mychel’s death she came right back and does not leave her son’s side ever since.

    Ser Mychel’s youngest daughter, lady Teora, was married to Ser Uther of House Donniger, master of Clifston castle, until his death in the year 349AC at the age of seven-and-forty. She never remarried and is still in mourning.

    Ser Mychel’s older daughter, lady Theona, unfortunately met her end at the executioner’s block. Her husband, Ser Kennard of House Grafton, recently brought himself a new, very young wife from Lorath. The girl appears to be utterly insane, but it would seem that it does not bother Ser Kennard in the slightest.

    Ser Mychel’s only son Horton was married to lady Tarina of House Doggett until his death from a brothel disease. Lady Tarina did not remarry and remains at the Redfort.

    The pair’s children are also rather unfortunate. The daughter Sylana was born a simpleton and despite her kind and friendly nature remains unmarried, although she still dreams about her “future” husband. Ser Jorence, the son, married quite late to a lowborn woman twice him younger only to lose her to a tumour just a couple of years into their marriage. Ser Jorence is still in mourning.

    Lord Horton’s third son, Ser Jon, defied his father’s wishes and married a lowborn woman. The pair retreated to the castle of Daynsfort in hopes to be out of sight and out of mind. But it was not meant to be. After Lord Horton’s death his much less noble son accused lady Barba of conspiracy and burned her at the stake. Ser Jon never remarried, but two years after his wife’s execution he defied his family once more when he brought home a base-born son and a Crown signed petition declaring the boy his legitimate heir.

    The son, Ser Leowyn, was definitely his father’s blood as he went the exact same road and married a lowborn.

    His and lady Parena’s only son, Ser Benedict, is the current heir apparent to the castle of Daynsfort. He is married to lady Karella Stone, a bastard of House Bywater.

    Ser Jon’s daughters by his unfortunate wife went very different roads.

    Lady Gwenna, the younger, married Lord Elwood of House Meadows, Lord of Grassy Vale, as his second wife and the mother of his only son and successor.

    Lady Isabel, the older, married Ser Eustace, a lowborn knight and ran away with him to Lorath where he died from a tumour. She never remarried and is currently residing at the court of Lady Minelna of Lorath.

    The pair’s only daughter that survived to adulthood died at the age of just twenty years. Her lorathi bastard-born husband remarried to another bastard-born from Lorath.

    Lord Horton’s second son, Ser Creighton, married a woman ten years his senior and already a widow with four kids from her previous marriage. They relocated to the castle of Daynsquarry, their wedding gift. Lady Mariya of House Darry managed to bear her husband a daughter before Ser Creighton’s untimely death.

    Lady Elyra, the daughter, was married to ser Arys, a lowborn knight. They both were taken by the same ravenous illness.

    Their younger daughter, Lady Allyne, was married to Lord Parmen of Ruthermont as his second wife and died just a year after him despite their very impressive age gap. It is unclear whether her madness was caused by his demise or by a shameful illness she was rumoured to have had contracted.

    Oddly enough, her older sister, Lady Marsella, is married to Lord Waltyr, Lord Parmen’s son from his first marriage. She is also a second wife.

    Lady Elyra’s son, Ser Arnel, succeeded his grandsire as master of Daynsquarry. He is married to lady Fiona of House Waynwood. Unfortunately their marriage remains childless.

    After noble Lord Horton’s death his firstborn son Lord Jasper succeeded him as the Lord of Redfort. He was married to Lady Alyssa of House Royce. She never remarried after his death in the year 329AC and finally followed her beloved husband in the year 349AC, twenty lonely years after his death.

    Their oldest daughter is on her third husband at the moment. Her first one died young, second was taken in his prime, and her third one has a reputation of a kinslayer for the unfortunate death of his kinsman at the tourney.

    The middle daughter, Lady Arwen, was married to the gallant Lord Yohn of House Royce, Lord of Runestone. After his own unfortunate death in a duel Lady Arwen did not remarry and came back to her childhood home of Redfort.

    Lord Jasper’s only son is the current Lord Harrold of Redfort. He is married to Lady Sanora of House Donniger who came into this marriage a widow with two sons. Lady Sanora tries to hide from the family drama and spends her days in a haze of strong spirits.

    The pairs only daughter, lady Jessamyn, was also very keen on leaving and is happily married to Ser Bennifer of House Tully, an expected successor to the command of the Bloody Gate.

    The drama in question stirs from the middle of the family. Ser Quarl, the second son, is technically married to Lady Shierle of House Drox from the Westerlands. But while the westerwoman lives in the Vale, Ser Quarl ran away all the way to the West and now serves at the court of Lord Symond of Ashemark.

    The reason is named Arlon Stone, son of Lady Shierle and an unknown father. The boy’s time of birth left little room for doubt that he was not Ser Quarl’s as he was away from home for over a year hunting a mountain clans’ raiding party (or rather accompanying the knights that actually did the hunting and trying to stay out of their way due to his failing physique). Although Lady Shierle never named the father of her bastard, Ser Quarl is adamant that it is his own father, Lord Harrold. He also strongly suspects that the other two children born in their marriage are also not his, although he does not have any proof of that and they are considered his legitimate progeny.

    Ser Gawen the heir, a kind and honourable soul, tried to reconcile his family, but to no avail. He now tires to distance himself from the whole ordeal, spending most of his time with his wife, Lady Demerei of House Arryn, acting as her willpower in her attempt at a diet.

    The imperious Lord Gerold of House Grafton, Lord of Gulltown, died in the year 326AC at the age of two-and-sixty.

    His older daughter, lady Rylene, was married to Ser Donnel of House Waynwood. After her untimely death at the age of one-and-thirty, Ser Donned remarried. His second wife is now his widow.

    Lord Gerold’s younger daughter, lady Zhoe, was married to Ser Eon of House Hunter, master of Hunter’s Point castle, until his death at the age of thirty. She then eloped with a captain of the sellsword company, a man of a fearsome reputation as a cannibal. Although those allegations are vastly exaggerated and Captain Garth never actually ate any human despite his enormous appetite. Curiously enough, all those gargantuan amounts of food were never able to actually show themselves on Captain Garth’s body as it remained frail throughout his life. Captain Garth was deeply affected by the slander and died in great sadness at the age of one-and-sixty. His beloved wife, lady Zhoe, followed him a year later.

    Lord Gerold’s youngest son, soft-hearted Ser Gyles, became a hopeless drunkard after the mysterious death of his first wife, lady Merra of House Lynderly, despite the fact that they were almost incompatible together. He eventually remarried to an equally honourable lady Yorena, but the damage was already done and his addiction to the bottle took him to the grave. His widow mourned him for three years and finally wasted away in great sorrow.

    Lady Yolanda, Ser Gyles’ daughter by his first wife, is married to Ser Kermit of House Vance, a man she has absolutely nothing in common with. He eventually ran away from her (and her disease) and is serving with the Second Sons.

    Ser Gyles’ younger daughter, lady Alynne, is technically married to Ser Hoster of House Ryger, but Ser Hoster was driven away from his own home by his own brother, Lord Roger, and is currently serving at the court of Lord of Moreland. Lord Roger then proceeded to father a son by his brother’s wife and promptly shunned her from his company thereafter. The boy, Merrett, is promised to become a consort to young lady Arwaya of House Pemford, the current heir of Rushmoor, and resides with her future wife's court.

    Lord Gerold’s middle son, Ser Edric, was married to lady Nella of House Wythers until his death from a tumour at the age of eight-and-thirty. Lady Nella never remarried and is still in mourning.

    The pair only son, Ser Edmind, is his father’s spitting image. He is married to lady Wynafrey of House Mallister, daughter of the late Black Lady Minisa of the Seagard. The marriage is still childless.

    Lord Gerold’s firstborn son Randyll succeeded him as Lord of Gulltown. He became known as Lord Randyll the Munificent for his charitable and honourable nature. Lord Randyll was married thrice. His first wife, Lady Cercei of House Waynwood. She unfortunately let herself be seduced by a lowborn knight, contracted a brothel disease and died at the age of eight-and-twenty when both her mind and her body finally gave up. Lord Randyll’s second wife was already twice a widow herself. She died peacefully in her sleep at the age of six-and-fifty. Lord Randyll’s last wife and widow is Lady Alora Stone, a bastard-born daughter of a Night’s Watch brother from House Follard.

    Lord Randyll’s only daughter, lady Kerelle, is married to Ser Hugo of House Blackwood, heir to the Muddy Hall castle.

    Lord Randyll’s youngest son Rodrik is married to lady Ermesande Stone, a bastard of House Waxley.

    Lord Randyll’s third son, Ser Gerold, was first married to lady Sharra of House Melcolm, the mother of his two children. Rather simple woman, she did not recognise the telltale signs of a doomed dog and went to pet it, an act of kindness that cost her her life. Ser Gerold's second wife is Lady Syrella of House Bracken. They do not have any kids yet.

    Ser Gerold’s daughter, Lady Jennis, is married to a fresh prince of Andalos, newly-emerged Kind Baelor’s second son. The pair resides in the rapidly-growing new colony of Ghoyan Drohe on the border between the new kingdom of Andalos and the principality of Pentos.

    Ser Gerold’s son Waltyr is married much more humbly, to lady Jorelle of the northern House Locke. A simple man much like his mother, he is also suffering from an inflammation of his brain and is rarely seen in a sensible state of mind. Fortunately he is timid and kind-hearted so his fits are never violent, but rather just very sad.

    Lord Randyll’s second son, Ser Kennard, was first married to lady Theona of House Redford, but after her execution he rather quickly remarried to a very young lorathi girl he met in the Gulltown port. She claims descent from an Archon of Lorath, but she is also utterly insane, and Ser Kennard does not really seem that interested in her family or personality anyway.

    Ser Kennard’s only son Randyll was unfortunately killed by his own kinsman in a duel for honour. His wife, princess Sarya of Andalos, went back to her homeland and became a septa like her grandmother.

    Their oldest daughter, lady Ronella, was married to Lord Humfrey of House Melcolm, Lord of Old Anchor, until her death at the age of just eight-and-twenty. Lord Humfrey remarried to lady Yorena, who looks uncomfortably similar to his previous wife. He also has a bastard born in between his marriages.

    His brother, Ser Adrian, master of Gull Hall, was married to lady Deana of House Shett (of Gulltown branch), mistress of Gulltown Keep. After Ser Adrian’s mysterious death at the age of just eight-and-twenty, poor lady Deana had unfortunately lost her mind in grieving for her husband and does not really understand or recognise who she is dealing with and is easily being led to believe that her husband is with her at the moment, a confusion that led to the birth of her bastard daughter Rhea.

    The Black Lord Triston of House Sunderland, Lord of The Sisters, died in the year 326AC at the age of six-and-sixty. His second wife and widow, Lady Wylla of House Locke, remarried to the Lord of Maidstone as his second wife.

    Lord Triston’s seventh son, Ser Alesandor, was married to lady Yolanda of House Elesham. After his death at the age of six-and-thirty she stayed with her sons and never remarried.

    Lord Triston’s sixth son, Ser Morton, was married to lady Lyanne of House Dustin until his death at the age of five-and-thirty. His widow went back to her childhood home, remarried and had another son before her own death at the age of six-and-fifty.

    Lord Triston’s fifth son, Ser Rolland, was allegedly briefly married to a peasant girl, but she tragically died in childbirth along with their daughter. Ser Rolland never remarried and deeply mourned his beloved until his own death at the age of four-and-fifty.

    Lord Triston’s fourth son, Ser Maron, is also married to a lowborn, the second one already. His first wife Aryse died at the age of three-and-sixty. Ser Maron hastily remarried to Nolla, a woman of ill repute and more than twice younger than him.

    Ser Maron’s daughter by his first wife, lady Serra, was married to Ser Denys of House Dutton, master of Stonewatch castle. He remarried after his first wife’s suspicious death at the age of three-and-thirty (rumour has it that he did the deed himself enraged by her infidelity).

    His younger brother, Ser Trison, is a true knight and pride of House Sunderland. He is married to lady Sabetha of House Ryswell, an equally virtuous lady.

    Lord Triston’s second son, Ser Mandon, was married to lady Gella of House Borell. After his attempt to usurp his older brother, he was denounced by The Seven and burned at the stake, a most harsh decision that earned his brother the stain of kinslaying. Lady Gella’s mind could not handle the sight of her husband’s execution and for the five years that remained her she just mumbled something and stared into the distance.

    Both sons of the traitorous Ser Mandon are already dead too.

    His younger son, Ser Kyle, was married to lady Ryessa of House Woolfield until his peaceful death at the age of nine-and-fifty. The marriage was a loving one, but unfortunately it never produced any children. Nonetheless, lady Ryessa remains with her late husband’s household.

    Ser Mandon’s older son Marwyn was married to Maege of House Lake. After the whole ordeal with her father-in-law, she fled to Lorath with her younger son and unfortunately died there due to poor health, probably due to her obesity.

    His older brother, Ser Olymer, did not flee with his mother. He married a fellow sisterman woman named Ravella and tries to live his life quietly and out of sight.

    The current Lord of The Sisters is Black Lord Bryen. He continues the reign of terror his father had started.

    His first wife, Lady Morra of House Longthorpe, could not handle his constant accusations and abuse and fled all the way to Yunkai in hopes that it would be far enough for her husband to reach. She unfortunately died in the Grey Plague outbreak in the year 311AC at the age of two-and-thirty. Upon receiving the news Lord Bryen almost immediately remarried to Lady Rosamund of House Frey. Poor woman is now a mess of nerves and stress, just like her predecessor.

    Their daughter, lady Ravella, jumped at the first opportunity for marriage and ran away to become the wife of Lord Jory of House Long, just across the Bite.

    The case with Black Lord Bryen’s children by his first wife, Lady Morra the Runaway, is a bit more complicated.

    Their daughter Rylene was married to the astapori man by the name of Kraznys of house zo Grazlar as his second wife and had a daughter by him, but came back to her father’s court after her husband’s death in the year 350AC. She practices her late husband’s religion even though she sees herself as a woman of The Sisters.

    Her daughter Yezza on the other hand was raised to be a proper astapori woman. She is married to Good Master Haznak zo Mazlaq of Astapor as his second wife despite being more than twice younger than him and dutifully produces his children.

    Black Lord Bryen’s firstborn son and heir will also forever remain in the Slaver’s Bay, dead and buried in Yunkai.

    His only child Omer was born just two years before his father’s death and never really knew him. He fully embraced his home country's customs and is married to a lowborn woman named Azarra. They are yet to have a child of their own. It’s not clear if Omer even knows that he stands to inherit his grandfather’s titles in a land utterly foreign to him.

    For his whole life Omer was looked after by his uncle Gilwood who himself was raised by Omer’s father when their mother died. Gilwood is married, but was never blessed with children of his own. He also fully embraces the yunkish culture and religion and serves as a Chief General to the Master of Yunkai. After his sister Rylene decided to go back to “the monster” that is their father, Gilwood feels betrayed and curses his sister’s name at every opportunity.

    The Vale of Arryn: Minor Events in the Vale: For Whom the Bells Toll
  • For Whom the Bells Toll​

    On the fifth day of the fourth month of the year 306AC the bells tolled for the arrogant Lord Benedar of House Belmore, Lord of Strongsong, when he was two-and-sixty years of age.

    QgDBnRyk4TImhizI_V4lAMNspzUFjZaJxxlX2ozeEOiTj6ItGH0JswnH-2uzGu6yPYpKGSt4b6K4LMHZBp-AomWp6x47gb84oslm_623RXIe8bhk4TAPRJVHWFcHUWC2QjK72Pjw



    His second son, Ser Marwyn, died in the year 329AC at the age of three-and-sixty in service of the Lord Paramount of the Vale. Ser Marwyn’s widow, lady Carolei of House Waynwoon (already a widow at the time of their marriage), followed her husbands six year later.

    The pair’s only son, Ser Mandon, was exiled to the Wall after brutally assaulting a young stableboy and died there at the age of seven-and-forty.

    Lord Benedar’s firstborn, Lord Benedict, succeeded his father as Lord of Strongsong. Unfortunately archives regarding his Lady are missing, but it is known that he had two legitimate sons and one living bastard.

    u-v9W9kzPamuOyK16Zk2mcV0MX3gaanS7u7kH7d8kp9PXX7AtESH01_7xgEFuIuCe2FE9cNxzQalVMVjD7TfEvVVKdUtG2_gkqzt_WVziSpSyqDdW8quBm1wKXbqx5xFqYTFb0dQ


    Said bastard was born to Lord Benedict’s own daughter-in-law. Lord Benedict then petitioned the Crown to have him legitimised, a rather arbitrary decision as he already had two older sons (one of whom was the bastard’s mother’s husband as well).

    Ser Gilwood is married to lady Olaria of House Manderly from the North who is eleven year his senior.

    Their only child, lady Damana, is married to Ser Samwell of House Lefford in the Westerlands.

    Lord Benedict’s younger legitimately legitimate son, Ser Yohn, was married to a rather homely lady Nesella of House Sarsfield, also from the West. The pair had almost nothing in common, and after Ser Yohn’s death at the age of eight-and-forty Lady Nesella went back to her childhood home where she serves on her brother’s small council.

    The pair’s only child, Ser Robert, unfortunately took after his mother in appearance. He is convinced that no proper highborn lady “would debase herself to marry this mug” so he married a woman he men in an establishment of ill repute.

    The drunken Lord Benjicot was Lord Benedict’s firstborn. His father personally arranged his heir’s marriage to a beautiful Lady Cloie of House Shett and the pair quickly had a son. Everything seemed fine, but then lady Cloie started to spend a suspiciously large amount of time with her father-in-law. It all made sense when she bore a son despite the fact that she shunned her husband’s bed for a long while, claiming some feminine health issues (that were later revealed to be miscarriages driven by the moon tea). Her husband, crushed by this betrayal, proceeded to drown his sorrows in a bottle. After Lord Benedict’s death Lord Benjicon, already a proper drunk, became Lord of Strongsong, although the actual governing fell onto his younger brother as Lord Benjicot was often unfit to even stand. Despite that he managed to have another child by his unfaithful wife before his death at the age of nine-and-forty (it is rumoured that he drank and ate so much that he literally exploded, but that must surely be exaggerated). His wife, shocked by his death, felt deep remorse over her conduct and withered away in constant self-loathing.

    The pair’s daughter, Lady Rhea, was not content to spend her life in the familiar and boring Vale. She ran away, sneaked onto a merchant ship and ended up all the way in North Valyria where she met Lord Jayns of House Azantone, Lord of Tolos. The pair had a lot in common and after a brief period of courtship ended up married. But after three children and almost twenty years together the love that felt like it would burn for eternity withered away, and Lady Rhea seems to be also withering without it.

    Lady Rhea’s brother, Lord Benedict, succeeded his father in the year 331AC. He was married to Lady Becca of House Royce until his death at the age of eight-and-forty, a year younger than his drunken wreck of a father. Lady Becca’s death six years later was a major shock and scandal and of course a true tragedy.

    Lady Becca was most gruesomely executed by her own son, Lord Lyn, for the alleged crimes against the Seven Gods in the form of witchcraft. She was accused of murdering her husband, despite the fact that at the time of his death the maesters all agreed that his death seemed natural and most probably was caused by his unhealthy eating habits. There were also accusations of “stealing the life from her younger child in order to cure her own ailment”, whatever that might imply. Although most of the accusations were anonymous or brought forth by the servants and lesser nobles, it is widely believed that kind and pius Lord Lyn was manipulated by his unstable and cruel wife, Lady Alyssa of House Ryger, who allegedly is the true mastermind behind this whole morbid affair, for she is definitely capable of anything and everything to further her own interests and that of her progeny, and poor late Lady Becca was threatening to see her confined.

    Lord Lyn’s sisters reacted to this gruesome ordeal very differently.

    Lady Karella, the younger, ran (or rather really quickly hobbled) away to the Westerlands to marry Ser Horton, the heir of House Drox.

    Lady Carissa, the older, stays put and is trying to stir her brother away from his insane wife. Her open dismay for her sister-in-law drove a wedge between the siblings so Lady Carissa is now trying a more subtle approach through her husband, Ser Morton Stone (a rumoured bastard of Lord Jonos of Pebble), who serves on her brother’s small council.

    The Vale of Arryn: Minor Events in the Vale: Three Drops of Red for One Lady Forlorn
  • Three Drops of Red for One Lady Forlorn​

    Lord Gawen of House Corbray, Lord of Northweald, died at the age of one-and-fifty.

    QERlKdLcgEhz5vTU3Tw5N8ZIYTSt1j2xCkOy7QKaqjLI_Ti-QRP5GEe45h-tO9c2bhqLDWH7fIxi1eobfUMXhRGN-D_vdwO7ZqYlyYgCdEE7dTV04_1S6SfayQmm42SE0zdHRwaO



    His famous second son, Ser Lyn, was granted the command of a contingent of guards and relocated to their quarters at The Maidenvault tower in the Red Keep. Commander Lyn died at the age of seven-and-forty from seemingly natural reasons. After his death the Corbray ancestral sword, Lady Forlorn, went back to the Corbray family.

    The rumour has it that Commander Lyn took much younger boys as his bedwarmers. His last and the only confirmed one, a lyseni boy just out of boyhood, was semi-mockingly called the Wife by Ser Lyn’s subordinates. He unfortunately died from lung inflammation at the age of twenty.

    Lyn Corbray and Lady Forlorn by JB Casacop


    Lord Gawen’s youngest son, the evil Ser Lucas, was a wicked man that led a debauched life. As an attempt to somehow domesticate his brother, his older brother promised him the Creek Castle as a wedding gift. The plan backfired spectacularly when Ser Lucas married a lowborn widow of the late Lord of Crackclaw Point for the sole purpose of getting a castle of his own. He then proceeded to terrorise his poor wife and his subjects until his death from stomach rot.

    The pair’s only daughter Damana got involved with a common footsoldier in a sellsword company and stubbornly followed him whenever his duty called. He happened to die in the Westerlands and distraught old lady Damana was brought to the White Boar’s court at Crakehall where she eventually died of a broken heart. There are dark rumours that she and her soldier had a son that they sold to the Faceless Men when their company was deployed in Braavos and that the boy (or someone wearing his face) now serves there as an assassin.

    Those rumours are further fanned by the fact that Ser Lucas’s oldest son, Ser Gawen, died at a young age of just nine-and-ten. At the time of his death there were no suspicions of foul play.

    Y4ohMAG55mzocNItCdVXDXiAnGS0czkBwdaMHHoxT46pqt55v8aQmN7G7NbMpFOf3h31tKwaDQKPNxj9lszFyz9zEO-RpE4oyR_4I9JAU6JRIqVtXfbFFYAvp6AGNTRTsZMgFMk0



    But when his brother, Ser Guncer, also died at the exact same age, people began to whisper.

    The current master of Creek Castle is Ser Bryan, Ser Guncer’s only son by his widow, lady Leonella Waynwood (she later remarried to Ser Renly of House Royce). Ser Bryan managed to live past the age of nine-and-ten and continues on living, although his marriage to lady Hostella of House Cox yet remains childless.

    Lord Lyonel succeeded his father, Lord Gawen, in the year 283AC. He was married twice. His first wife, Lady Myranda of House Waxley, gave him only one child, a son that died very young. After her death at the age of one-and-fifty Lord Lyonel hastily remarried to Lady Dyanna, a pentoshi lady with a beautiful face but not so beautiful attitude most unlike his own. The pair though managed to have three children in rapid succession before Lord Lyonel’s death at the age of two-and-sixty. His widow remarried to a knight of House Shett, but had a bastard son with one of her new husband’s kinsmen and eventually died a somewhat controversial death at the age of three-and-fifty.

    Lord Lyonel’s younger daughter, lady Jacene, is unfortunately already dead. She died of gout at the age of one-and-forty. Her husband, Lord Robert of House Thorne, Lord of Rayonet, is remarried, but not so happily as it might seem.

    Lord Lyonel’s older daughter, lady Moryssa, liked money and did not like moving. So she pressured a local merchant, mayor Lyonel from the prospering town of Wingpass, into marriage. After his death she was remarried to Ser Ronnel, a lowborn hedgeknight in her son's household, although due to her current mental condition (as in her brains being actively eaten away by a brothels' disease) it is unclear if she even understands that this is actually a new man and not her poor previous husband.

    Lady Moryssa’s children are considered to be members of her House and proudly call themselves Corbrays rather than her late first husband’s family name.

    Lady Lyseria, the pair’s only daughter, is married to Ser Alester of House Hunter. They currently reside at the Eyrie where Ser Alester serves as Lord Paramount’s bodyguard.

    Lady Moryssa’s older son Victor is the current mayor of Wingpass. He is married to Alayne, daughter of one late commander of a sellsword company and a highborn lady. His stepfather Ser Ronnel is serving as his vice-mayor and is expected to take up the mantle if something were to befall master Victor.

    If his ambitious brother Ser Elwood has something against this arrangement, he hides it well and is on relatively good terms with both his brother and his stepfather. Ser Elwood if married to lady Ellyn, a bastard of House Dutton.

    The current Lord of Northweald is Lord Lyonel’s only son, Lord Yorwick. His first wife and mother of his children, Lady Karene of House Templeton, died from a tumour at the age of eight-and-thirty. His current wife is Lord of Harpshire’s widow, Lady Elyra of House Royce. This marriage is working very well and is built on mutual respect and genuine affection.

    Lord Yorwick’s older daughter is married to Lord Tarwen of House Massey, current Lord of Massey’s Hook and is giving her poor kind-hearted husband a lot of troubles.

    The current heir of Northweald is Lord Yorwick's only living son Petyr. He is married to lady Carissa of House Arryn. They both are training in the way of the sword and squire under Lord Yorwick's master-at-arms, although lady Carissa seems to have a much harder time with it than her husband, probably because of the time she had to spend resting due to her pregnancy, which unfortunately still ended in a stillbirth.

    Lady Anya’s youngest son, Ser Wallace, was a gentle and kindhearted man. Extremely conscious about his stutter, he had difficulties with the ladies and preferred the company of his books. His brother, the future Lord Morton, attempted to remedy that and bought him a woman from one of the brothels he frequented - another brother’s plan to backfire spectacularly and with the most horrible finale. Ser Wallace fell madly in love with the woman his brother bought for him and spent a small fortune on the visits before deciding that it was just too expensive, and then straight up married her to both save money and have his unlikely paramour all for himself. “Lady” Alyx gave her husband three healthy daughters before succumbing to the disease common to her previous occupation. It is unknown whether it was the disease that he might or might not have gotten from his wife or the sheer volume of grief that her passing had given him, but Ser Wallace’s mind shattered beyond repair and he took his own life just a year later.

    The pair’s oldest daughter, lady Leonella, was briefly married to Ser Guncer of House Corbray, master of Creek Castle, before his mysterious death at the age of just eight-and-ten. Lady Leonella remarried to Ser Renly of House Royce and is still happily married to him.

    The second daughter, lady Parra, was more akin to her father in regards to marriage. After her first marriage to Ser Harrold of House Goodbrook ended with his death, she took a lowborn poet for a husband, and she did it twice.

    While her two daughters are married off to the families of various prominence, her son by Ser Harrold, Ser Jared, is serving as an acolyte here at the Citadel. A kind and generous man with lots of love to give, he seems to question this decision and often talks about leaving to start a family of his own. Whatever his decision, these words are to be regarded as an official blessing from the current Head of the Order of Maesters.

    Not much is known about Ser Wallace’s third daughter, Mara. She was last seen boarding a ship bound to Braavos, but after that her trail goes muddy. There are talks that she was seen entering the House of Black and White, but nothing can be said for certain.

    Ser Donnel’s firstborn, lady Allyne, was briefly married to Lord Eddard of Silvereed (the one that burned his first wife at the stake after discovering her involvement in a cult allegedly worshipping the enigmatic Others that are expected to come from the Lands of Always Winter). After his death, lady Allyne married his lowborn steward Marlon and took him with her back to the Vale to live with her brother’s household. After Marlon’s death she took another lowborn husband, a hedgeknight going by the name Ser Elwood. She is also rumoured to have contracted the brothel’s disease, but the maester of Waynford Watch seems to have it under control.

    Ser Edmore, lady Allyne’s son by her second husband Marlon, is married to lady Perriane of House Blackwood. It is worth noting that his lady follows the religion of his crannogman father.

    Lady Gwenna is Ser Donnel’s second child. She is married to the just Lord Lewys of House Byrch.

    Ser Robert was Ser Donnel’s only son. He relocated to a small castle of Waynford Watch to hide from what he believed to be an enormous amount of schemes that brewed against his person, and was content to live his life in obscurity and a blissful haze of strong spirits that ultimately brought his downfall. He took a lowborn woman named Theona as his wife and dutifully sired three children by her despite his clear disinterest in the fairer sex. Poor lady is slowly dying from the brain rot and although the maester of Waynford Watch is clearly very skillful and surely acts out of pure intentions, he basically just prolongs her suffering and merely delays the inevitable.

    The pair’s daughter, lady Jennis, is married to Ser Arlon of House Templeton. They recently relocated to Dragonstone and reside with House Scales, the keepers of the tower of Windwyrm.

    Young Ser Donnel is the current master of Waynford Watch. He is not a knight yet, of course, but a rather promising squire eagerly learning the way of the sword. His four years old brother Jaymond is his heir and a constant (annoying) shadow.

    After Lady Anya’s death, her firstborn son became the new Lord of Ironoaks. Lord Morton was married to Lady Lorra of House Royce until her death in childbirth at the age of two-and-forty. Lord Morton never remarried, but he did have a number of mistresses and favourites in different brothels.

    One of those women, a lyseni girl he reserved for himself and who was a maiden before Lord Morton’s first visit, eventually became pregnant and gave birth to a silver-headed girl whom the women of the establishment named Alanna. Despite his short temper, Lord Morton was an honourable and gods-fearing man, so he acknowledged the girl and took her into his household. She later married Ser Humfrey Redback of House Errol who still mourns her almost twenty years after her death.

    Lady Anya the younger was Lord Morton’s eldest daughter. She was married to Ser Waymar of House Royce, master of Andleton castle. She died of a broken heart just a month after her husband.

    Lady Cersei was Lord Morton’s second daughter. She was married to the munificent Lord Randyll of House Grafton, Lord of Gulltown, as his first wife. After an ill-advised encounter with a lowborn knight that was supposed to remain a one-and-gone secret, she instead ended up with a rapidly progressing brothel disease (and, if one is to believe the rumours, a bastard in her belly, but the child, whoever he was, came out way prematurely anyway). Lady Cersei died at the age of eight-and-twenty with both her mind and her body quickly giving up. There were talks about her name playing some role in her ultimate fate, but surely a name is just a name and fate’s are made by Gods and people’s choices.

    Lord Morton’s younger son, Ser Jasper, was a good man that genuinely loved people. He was knighted, of course, as is expected from a high-born man, but his true passion was not a sword but a brush. He was renowned for his portraits and left many beautiful paintings of various prominent people of the Vale. Ser Jasper was married to lady Alayne of House Waxley and they loved each other very much. After his death, lady Alayne withdrew to her chambers and was rarely seen outside them until her death six years after her husband.

    The pair’s daughter, lady Yorena, was married to Ser Gyles of House Grafton. Ser Gyles was a widower at the time of their wedding. He also either did not get over the death of his first wife, or used her death as an excuse for his idleness and overindulgence. The latter also brought random violent outbursts from normally kind and honourable men. Poor lady Yorena loved the man her husband was when he was sober and mourned him deeply when his other side finally drowned him in the wine. Her body died of gout in 344AC, but her soul was dead three years before already.

    Ser Kyle was every bit Ser Jasper’s son. He lived a good life with his beloved wife, lady Emmara of House Pyle, and their only daughter Fiona, but was unfortunately taken from them way too soon by a dreaded tumour in his body. Lady Emmara never remarried and lived in sorrow for fifteen years before finally joining her husband.

    Lady Fiona is married to Ser Arnel of House Redford and resides with him in the castle of Redquarry (formerly known as Daynsquarry). The pair is said to be desperate for an heir to the point of obsession.

    Unfortunately Ser Jasper was his father’s second son, so after Lord Morton’s failed trial by combat and a subsequent execution by Lord Paramount of the Vale, his firstborn son Roland succeeded him as the new Lord of Ironoaks. Almost a complete opposite of his younger brother, Lord Roland ruled even harsher than his grandmother did. Where hers had some sort of a method to it, his cruelty was as ruthless as it was sudden. Even though Lord Roland was convinced that he was only doing his humble duty as the overlord of his lands and did indeed unleash his wrath only after a trial had deemed someone guilty enough to receive it, he was at his core a cowardly man who was easily influenced and manipulated by people around him. It is no wonder then that his subject cursed his trials and his name and rejoiced when he finally died in the year 344AC at the age of six-and-sixty. His wife Wenella, a common-born woman from Riverlands, died peacefully in the same year.

    The pair’s only daughter Jyana is married to Manfryd of House Ruthermont.

    Her youngest brother, Ser Osric, takes nothing after his father as he was practically raised by his uncle, Ser Jasper the Painter. He is married to lady Belissa of House Bar Emmon. Lady Belissa was previously married to a man from another prominent House, but he was stripped of his family name, his claims and worldly possessions and sent to the Night’s Watch to atone for his crimes.

    Oddly enough, lady Belissa’s second son and Ser Osric’s only child, Ser Robar, is also serving there, but he volunteered and left at his own free will after his former wife and the mother of his daughter, lady Elyra of House Ruthermont, broke his heart when she was found abed with her lover (and rather hastily arranged current husband), Ser Benfrey of House Wydman. Lady Elyra’s new husband arranged for her to hide at the court of his undisclosed friend while he awaits the trial of his kinsman, the infamous Lord Jaymond of Wycliffe, who was arrested by the Crown at the urging of none other than your humble author. Ser Benfrey is expected to testify at the trial and speak about the death of his beautiful, albeit common-born, first wife Mara, who was dragged to Lord Jaymond’s dungeons on some convoluted pretence and left there only to be buried.

    Ser Hugo is the accursed Lord Roland’s middle son. He also was among Ser Jasper’s wards and grew up in his image. He is married to lady Anya of House Templeton, a woman with unfortunate features, but a heart of gold.

    Their sons, Armond and Oswin, are married to ladies Jacene of House Waxley and Marianne of House Rykker respectively.

    After Lord Roland's long-awaited death, his magnanimous son Ser Isembard finally became the new Lord of Ironoaks. With his beloved wife, Lady Damana Stone (the bastard-born daughter or House Dutton), they built a new septry and frequently tended to its sprouting garden together. It was there an unexpected tragedy had befallen the family when a rabid dog stumbled onto the grounds and lunged at an unsuspecting Lady Damana. Lord Isembard, ever anxiously vigilant, lunged between his wife and her crazed attacker. Although a brave man and a knight, Lord Isembard was never a great swordsman to begin with, and he was even less so when armed with a rake instead of a sword. Even though the pair had eventually managed to fight the dog off, it was too late. Lord Isembard got bit and died in agony in the year 355AC at the age of one-and-fifty. His lamenting wife had barricaded herself in her chambers and if the latest reports are true, she refuses to partake of any sustenance as if trying to starve herself to death.

    The pair’s older daughter Lady Karene is married to Lord Donnel of House Mooton, Lord of Maidenpool.

    Her younger sister, lady Deana, is married to Ser Morgan of House Manderly, the brother and current heir to the Lord of White Harbor.

    Ser Endrew is poor Lord Isembard’s younger son. His wife, the wretched lady Meredyth of House Ryger, suffered a severe case of greyscale and is now permanently disfigured by it.

    The current Lord of Ironoaks is Lord Isembard’s eldest son, a new Lord Roland. Unfortunately the second Lord Roland takes right after the first and is known to take great pleasure in the “the purges of pests” he frequently undertakes in his garden. Judging by his sarcastic musing about the true nature of The Seven actually being dragons and his remarks about us all being “just pests in the eyes of any gods anyway”, it seems just a matter of time when he turns his attention from his moles to his people. There is a faint hope that his gracious and reasonable wife, Lady Dianessa of House Darry, will be able to find some cunning way to contain her husband’s more violent urges with the same efficiency that she does his more basic ones.

    Ser Harrold of House Hardyng, Lord of Hardvale, died from seemingly natural causes, although at a relatively young age of nine-and-forty.

    His only daughter, lady Deana, was married to Ser Walton of House Frey. Two of their oldest children unfortunately met the most gruesome ends, both executed with fire.

    Ser Harrold’s youngest child, Ser Desmond, was cursed with internal rot from a young age. Despite that he managed to get knighted, married and fathered two children before his death at the age of three-and-forty. His loving wife, lady Perra of House Arryn (the ones from the Gulltown), who married Ser Desmond despite her family’s wishes and forfeited any claims she migh have had, never remarried after her husband’s death and mourned him for the rest of her life.

    Their daughter, lady Sherlyse, was married to Ser Jon of House Badics until his unfortunate death in a tourney at the age of just eight-and-twenty. She never remarried and is serving on her grandson’s small council.

    Ser Desmond’s son, Ser Beomar, was married to lady Mynalla of House Rethermont until his own unfortunate death. The official cause is stated as “bad case of the flu”, but reports say that Ser Beomar was suffering from a severe case of mental breakdown and paranoia, and one’s prone to question whether this other sickness might have been more culpable of his demise than a mere case of runny nose.

    Ser Ronnel was the next Lord of Hardvale, succeeding his father, Ser Harrold, in the year 280AC. He was married thrice with one child with each woman, but for some reason the names and houses of his two wives are missing from the archives.

    He also beget a bastard daughter with lady Myranda of House Royce. The girl was rather controversially named Cersei, but she grew up to be a complete opposite of her infamous namesake. She was married to Ser Igon of House Tully from The Bloody Gate, a good man with a very tragic (and some say cursed) life.

    Ser Randyll was Ser Ronnel’s third son. He was married to Lady Emmara of House Chyttering until his death at the age of two-and-thirty from a combination of his love of drink and his mental instability that apparently runs in the family. Lady Emmara later remarried.

    The pair’s only child, Lady Wylera, was one of the wives and victims of the now infamous Lord Jaymond of Wycliffe. Her most certainly wrongful death will be addressed at the impending trial.

    Ser Harrold was Ser Ronnel’s second son and once an heir apparent to the whole Vale. After that became out of the question, he left the Seven Kingdoms entirely and joined a mercenary company in Essos. He died there from bad nutrition at the age of four-and-forty. He never married, but left a bastard daughter he fathered in one of the many brothels. Eventually lady Arelle came back to the Vale and settled with the Hardyngs’ liege lords, the Waynwoods. There are rumours that she was a lover of one of the members of that House, but there are no hard proofs.

    Ser Hugh was Ser Ronnel’s firstborn and heir. He was married to Lady Myranda of House Royce, the same one that gave birth to her father-in-law’s daughter Cersei.

    It would seem that the pair reconciled and moved on after that incident, but Ser Hugh evened the score anyway with a bastard of his own. Unfortunately the boy, who was a son of a northman woman and followed her gods of the old, died from greyscale at a prime young age of just eight-and-ten. He was at that time already married to lady Alynne of House Blackwood, but they did not have time to have a child. Lady Alynne later remarried to Ser Gerold of House Serrett in the West.

    Ser Eldred is Ser Hugh’s and Lady Myranda’s youngest child. He was unfortunately born a lackwit with a clear hint of cruelty and a very bad temper. His misplaced ambitions and pride were clearly taken advantage of by lady Lyseria of House Breakstone, a ruthless and cunning woman. She found a drunken hedge knight who then knighted Ser Eldred in a tavern. She then seduced Ser Eldred and became pregnant with his son (or with a son of an unwashed “holy man” that she continues to see near the local village and to whom she had already given a small fortune). The boy was born small and sickly and died from a flu within a year after birth. Despite Ser Eldred’s wishes and probably due to lady Lyseria’s undignified illness, the pair did not produce any more children and will probably never have.

    Ser Ronnel is Ser Hugh’s and Lady Myranda’s fourth child. He was married to Lady Barba of the northern House Flint of Widow’s Watch until her very questionable execution by the Hardyng’s liege lord at the age of three-and-forty. The pair did not have children, but it was a loving and respectful marriage, so it took some convincing by his family to make Ser Ronnel marry again. He eventually did though, to lady Minisa Rivers, a woman young enough to be his daughter. There are rumours that Ser Ronnel only married her because he wanted to alleviate her mistreatment as a bastard born without a father. The pair’s first child unfortunately lived only a couple of months, but lady Minisa is pregnant again, so there is still hope that Ser Ronnel will get his wish for a daughter.

    Ser Jon is Ser Hugh’s and Lady Myranda’s third son. He is married to lady Josella of House Rollingford. The pair had struggled to conceive for many years, but in their maturity they finally had their wish, and their only son is currently squiering for an esteemed knight in their household.

    Ser Alec is Ser Hugh’s and Lady Myranda’s second son. He seems to have forgotten that he is not a young man anymore and recently suffered a nasty fall from one of his apple trees that left him unconscious and practically comatose. His diligent wife sees to him every day, stubbornly refusing to acknowledge the inevitable.

    The pair’s only daughter, lady Carina, was married to Ser Corwin of House Errol before he got himself exiled to the Westwatch-by-the-Bridge for a duel gone wrong. Lady Carina stayed with her ex-husband’s family with her daughter and eventually had a brief affair with her ex’s kinsman and liege, Lord Kyle of Wendwater, that resulted in a bastard-born son Eldon.

    Lady Carina’s daughter, lady Mary, is married to Lord Kyle’s half-brother, Ser Edwyn of House Swann.

    Lord Kyle and Ser Edwin share a mother, lady Jeyne of House Swann. After the death of Lord Kyle’s father, Ser Desmond of House Errol, she fell in love with a lowborn knight in her son’s household and became pregnant with his child. Lord Kyle hastily arranged for his mother’s marriage. As her new husband did not have a family name of his own, their son became a member of lady Jeyne’s House Swann.

    Hugh is Lady Carina’s twin brother. He is married to lady Liane of House Cox, already a widow and a mother at the time of their marriage. They do not have any children together.

    Ser Merton is Ser Alec’s second son. He is married to lady Edrise of House Lynderly. This pair also seems to be struggling with fertility.

    Ser Alec’s firstborn, Ser Arlon, unfortunately lived for only twenty years before a severe case of lung inflammation took him far too early. He was married to lady Ursula of House Elesham. Curel tongues claim that he married the unfortunate woman as a cruel jest and just to always have someone to torment, a fact that might have contributed to lady Ursula’s problematic character. She never remarried, probably due to her abnormality, and still resides with her late husband’s household.

    Ser Dunstan, Ser Hugh’s firstborn, succeeded his father in the year 339AC. He was married twice. His first wife, Lady Melissa of House Haigh, unfortunately died at the age of five-and-twenty in her childbirth bed along with the pair’s stillborn daughter. Maester of Hardvale claimed that the poor woman should have never gotten pregnant in the first place as she was suffering from a rotten womb and that child was her death sentence. Ser Dunstan later remarried to a homely lady Obyra of House Lipps, also a widow at the time of their marriage. The union was built on a foundation of mutual kindness and some twisted ideas and resulted in four healthy children. Lady Obyra deeply mourns her deceased husband for almost ten years now.

    The pair’s youngest daughter, Lady Elyra, was shipped off across the Narrow Sea to wed a handsome Lord Tytos of The Andal Coast in a resurfaced Kingdom of the Andals. Despite the fact that the pair does not have that much in common, they seem to be deeply in love with each other.

    Lady Elyra’s older sister, lady Eddyne, married within the Seven Kingdoms. She resides with her husband, Tristan of House Errol, with his family in Stormlands.

    Ser Leowyn is Ser Dunstan’s second son. He is married to lady Jeyne of House Bar Emmon.

    The current Lord of Hardvale is Ser Lyn, Ser Dunstan and Lady Obyra’s firstborn. He is married to another Lady Jeyne, this one from House Goodbrook in the Riverlands. Ser Lyn once possessed a kind and gentle heart, but recently his behaviour became increasingly erratic and the sudden changes in his whole personality make it seem that Ser Lyn became possessed by something else entirely. His wife is ready to do whatever it takes to get her husband back, but due to her readiness to believe any and everyone there is a high risk that the poor woman might be taken advantage of. Hopefully a maester assigned to Hardvale proves capable enough to deal with this unfortunate situation, or it might warrant an intervention by the Conclave.

    The Wild Hunters​

    Lord Eon the Old of House Hunter, Lord of Eastwald, died from a gout in the year 300AC at the most impressive age of four-and-eighty.

    NJZ2Irp4G78_B9NoUjIOtpau9ltBDk6TI1qeXJ7vfdIt4d-M7kIOuoPgRb3E-l1jfHGBBhH6hq_ur4gv3-J-bzZjJ9ITRsk8zp_hduWuk-b0u7slKwOgM6Y-gnZc7bYb45if9Wip



    The turbulent family life of his only daughter lady Janyce is covered in an appropriate Chapter on House Frey.


    His youngest son, Ser Harlan Darkarrow, died just a year after his lord father.

    lKR45s0Men5M8GHi3_d3yaDiV99h13IXCl66szvPiP0y47dc1EwX0LA6c1Zd-_xBLzJdzLxeOZe6-hrAeWQs0DrFUPXohE5lJ4_DuyKyQL7YzzNSdL5UB2XI2lfWI9Xy6JuV9p4z


    His daughter, also a Janyce, was married to Robert of House Waxley.

    Darkarrow’s elder son, Ser Eon, was granted a castle of Hunter’s Point as a wedding gift after his marriage to lady Zhoe of House Grafton. After Ser Eon the younger’s death she remarried to a sellsword captain with the most ominous reputation.

    3onG09cPVZeE-5PdY7Zkx1z7bPusTltp23rk_sc5fCXs2fp8T1xe9Ou3fX7MRXydGF51jVB4NSysI3ZonThUw9NdGMqjqq2O3qv5XZjVf97CVHeXXuH9xVj86Z1hz-dbw-CregLS


    Hunter’s Point went to Darkarrow’s younger son, Ser Roland. His first marriage tragically ended with the death of lady Gwyn of House Upcliff at the young age of just one-and-twenty. Ser Roland later remarried to a lowborn woman young enough to be his daughter and still died without a male heir, passing the Hunter’s Point to his very unstable kinsman (more on that later).

    His oldest daughter, lady Jacene, is married to Ser Desmond of House Badics as his second wife.

    His second daughter unfortunately died just a year older than her poor mother. The official cause of her demise is stated to be that of a tumour, but at the time of her death there were rumours that poor unmarried lady Ryella actually had a child with her lowborn lover when she was just five-and-ten, but mere months after the birth both the father and the child were found dead. It was then believed that it was not a tumour but an unimaginable grief that ate the poor lady away.

    Old Lord Eon’s middle son, Ser Eustace, was married twice. Nothing is known about his first one, but the second was named Dalla and she outlived her husband by almost thirty years.

    Ser Eustace’s daughter was also married twice. Her first husband was Lord Willam of House Waxley of Wickenden. After his death she lady Teora remarried to Ser Robin of House Perryn, master of Stone Mill castle.

    Ser Eustace’s son was married twice as well. Ser Alec’s first wife was lady Palla of House Elesham. After her death elderly Ser Alec took a simpleton girl as his bedwarmer. Poor soul was convinced that it meant they were married and died content with that belief. Their baseborn son Alyn unfortunately took after his mother and was sent to the Quiet Isle to be taken care of by the septry.

    Ser Alec’s elder daughter, lady Rowena, was married to Ser Tommen of House Lorch until her death at the age of forty.

    His younger daughter was not so lucky in her marriages. Lady Kalyra the Second Wife was married four times, every time as a second wife.

    Ser Lyn, Ser Alec’s second son, was married to lady Leana of House Darkholme until his death at the age of one-and-forty. Lady Leana then made a proper scandal when she took her known lover for a husband. A lowborn tyroshi bard by the name of Hugh the Orange, although he actually was mostly yellow, openly claimed lady Leana’s daughter as his own even when her first husband was still alive. After the bard’s death, lady Leana went into mourning, a gesture that made everyone talk about her impropriety once again for she did not mourn her first, highborn husband at all.

    Ser Lyn’s daughter, lady Sanora, is married to Ser Bryan of House Breakstone, master of Crestwalk castle. Unfortunately this family is also marred by a tragedy. After years of trying, the pair’s long-awaited son was a stillborn. Poor lady Sanora’s mind was not strong enough to comprehend it and she started to wander around the Crestwalk castle searching for her child. Ser Bryan hopes that a new child might bring his wife to her senses while simultaneously fearing about nis future heir’s wellbeing with such an unstable mother.

    Lady Sanora’s brother, ser Alester, is married to lady Lyseria of House Corbray. They both reside in the Eirye alongside ser Alester’s mother.

    The bard’s daughter, lady Ellyn Stone, married Ser Yohn of House Coldwater and resides with him at his seat in the Rosvale castle.

    Ser Jaymond, Ser Alec’s firstborn son and Ser Roland’s previously mentioned very unstable kinsman, inherited Hunter’s Point castle in the year 354AC. He is married to the current matriarch of House Hunter, an equally mad Lady Cariah.

    After the deaths of Old Lord Eon his firstborn son, Lord Gilwood, inherited the Lordship of Eastwald. He was married to Lady Sarra of House Breakstone until his death in the year 318AC. His death is attributed to his constant state of inebriation where in his last years he chose to hide from his very legitimate worries and sorrows that his only child invoked.

    It is not clear when exactly and why did Lady Cariah lose her mind, but the fact that she did indeed lose it is undeniable. She also openly entertained her lover, Ser Elys of House Strickland, and had a son by him. She then had the child shipped to the Citadel with a merchant from Gulltown. She then became bored with her lover and married her kinsman, equally mad Ser Jaymond from a nearby Hunter’s Point, gods have mercy on their poor subjects.

    The bastard boy, Arlan, turned out to be a shrewd student, but unfortunately it did not do him any good and he did not go beyond basic literacy and science and he still serves as an acolyte. He also became rather zealous in his support of the Seven and had (rather meekly) called for a religious cleansing with fire. Other acolites made fun of him for that and mocked his speeches, referring to them as “Arlan warms the heretics”. The name stuck, so everyone calls him Arlan Warms now. As a child he also liked to pretend to be a lord and made himself a coat of arms with a fox on it, rather ironic given the fact that his insane parents are Hunters, both in name and as a pastime.

    Arlan’s legitimate half-brother, Ser Waymar, seems yet to be of sound mind at least, even though he is understandably weary around women. He is married to the daughter of late Lord Paramount Robert the Eagle of the Vale, Lady Perianne of House Arryn.

    Her(e)sy​

    The realms under the rule of the Iron Throne enjoy a fair amount of freedoms. One of them is a freedom of religious worship. This is rather fortunate for Lord Leowyn of House Hersy, Lord of Newkeep. As a boy, he went on a journey and ended up in Meereen, all the way in Slaver's Bay. There he met Lady Qezza mo Dhuzh, daughter of a merchant. He fell in love with her and with her beliefs. Interestingly enough, the man does not think of himself as a valeman like his ancestors or a meereenese like his beloved wife, but follows the customs of another far-away land, the Free City of Lorath.

    However, the man’s older son and heir, Thorio, grows up to honour his older ancestors and thinks himself a proper valeman and the follower of the Seven. To further his knowledge and understanding of it all, he studies at the capital under the tutelage of Septon Rhalaso of the Red Keep. Thorio is also married to a proper valewoman, Lady Alora of the distant branch of House Arryn, although he seems a little bit too interested in spending time with other young men instead.
