Pyke (island)

Pyke is one of the Iron Islands, an archipelago located on Ironman's Bay, on the western side of Westeros. The island is the site of the castle of the same name, which serves as the seat of House Greyjoy, the ruling house of the Iron Islands, and the town of Lordsport.

=== Background ===
During Greyjoy Rebellion, Pyke island is the site of the Siege of Pyke, which ends with the defeat of House Greyjoy at the hands of the combined armies of King Robert Baratheon and Lord Eddard Stark. As a result, the Ironborn King Balon Greyjoy submits to the Iron Throne and surrenders his last remaining son and heir Theon Greyjoy to Ned Stark's custody. During the siege, several of the towers at Pyke castle were pulled down.
