Fairmarket

Fairmarket is a town in the Riverlands located on the Blue Fork of the Trident.
== Location ==
It is located mostly on the southern shore of the Blue Fork, but does span the river. It is southeast of Oldstones and Seagard, and northeast of Lord Harroway's Town. It is five days ride from the Whispering Wood. 
== History ==
The old River Kings denied charters that would have seen towns like Fairmarket, Lord Harroway's Town and Saltpans grow into cities. 
Pate of Fairmarket was a peasant, who unsuccessfully claimed to be a river king after the Riverlands fell into the dominion of House Durrandon, the Storm Kings of the Stormlands. 
The Storm King Arrec Durrandon was defeated in a Battle at Fairmarket by King Harwyn Hoare, which secured that the Riverlands went from the possession of the Durrandon kings to the Hoare Kings of the Iron Islands. Harwyn's son, Halleck Hoare, established his seat at a modest tower house at Fairmarket. 
Prince Aegon Targaryen met one of his mistresses, Megette, after his horse threw a shoe whilst riding near Fairmarket.
