The **Iron Throne** is the royal throne of Westeros, on which the King of the Seven Kingdoms traditionally sits and holds audiences and dispenses justice. The term refers to both the physical object and also to the person who sits on it. He who holds the Iron Throne is seen as the strongest claimant to the kingship, even when their position is disputed.

## Appearances

The Iron Throne is a tall, large seat which was forged out of the swords that Aegon the Conqueror collected from the enemies he defeated in battle. The throne's armrests consist of many blades and one must be careful not to injure themselves whilst sitting on the throne. The throne is located in the main hall of the Red Keep in King's Landing.

The Hand of the King, who dispenses justice when the King is not present, traditionally sits on a smaller, less ostentatious chair next to the main seat, although legally they are permitted to sit on the main throne, as are regents.

POV characters

**POV characters** are those characters whose perspective the story of **A Song of Ice and Fire** is told from. The POV characters in the books can be divided into three broad categories:

* **Prologue/epilogue POV characters:** These are the characters whose perspective the prologue and epilogue chapters of each book have been told from. So far each book has had a prologue, whilst only *A Storm of Swords* and *A Dance with Dragons* have had epilogues. So far, every prologue and epilogue POV has perished at the conclusion of their chapter, except for the prologue to Storm of Swords, which ends with the character's death seemingly imminent (and confirmed later in the book).
* **Major POV characters:** These are the 'main' POVs from whom the bulk of the story has been related. Each main POV chapter is headed simply by the character's name.
* **Minor POV characters:** Introduced in *A Feast for Crows*, this category includes POV chapters from 'minor' characters rather than the major protagonists of the series. They are differentiated from the main POVs by having a descriptive title rather than just a name and appear only when needed for story purposes. Several minor POV characters have since been promoted to major POVs, noted by their names being used rather than titles.

## Major POV characters

14 characters

Kingsmoot

File:Kinsmoot.jpeg
A **Kingsmoot** is an ancient ceremony in Ironborn tradition where a new King is selected to rule the islands following the death of the previous King.  All the available captains of longships from the various islands of the region come together to make the choosing.
Despite it being well-known Ironborn tradition that allows them to choose a new King, the kingship of the Iron Islands has instead been passed down through various lines, including the Hoare and Greyjoy families, for last few hundred years.  As such, it has been a long time since a Kingsmoot had been held.  As part of their bid for the crown, each candidate addresses the assembled crowd and offers the reasons why they should be King along with gifts to show the spoils of their successful reaving of the land, in the Ironborn tradition, and to exemplify their strength.

It is traditionally held on the island of Old Wyk at the top of a hill crowned by the oversized bones of a legendary sea creature called Nagga who according to legend was slain many, many hundreds of years ago by the Grey King, an old King of the Iron Islands, and its bones form the open-air hall where Kingsmoots are held.

A Kingsmoot is called at the end of the War of the Five Kings to decide who should rule the Iron Islands following the death of Balon Greyjoy.  After Balon's death, his exiled brother Euron Crow's Eye returned the very next day and tried to take the throne for himself, being next in succession in the Greyjoy line.  However one of Balon's other brothers, Aeron Greyjoy (a highly respected priest in the Ironborn's religion of the Drowned God), refused to accept him as ruler for various reasons.  He used his position of religious authority to invoked the ancient tradition of the Kingsmoot (the first for hundreds of years) as a means to prevent Euron from taking the crown and to have the Ironborn choose a worthy ruler for themselves.

During this Kingsmoot the crowd in attendence had to choose between Victarion Greyjoy, Asha Greyjoy and Euron Greyjoy amongst a few others who put themselves forward.  Each candidate put forward their cases and showed the spoils of their reaving, but it is Euron that emerges victorious with his promise of conquering the whole of Westoros using dragons and showing the extravagant spoils of his recent journey through the remains of Valyria - a journey well-known to be frought with danger and peril.

## Lyrics

And there he stood with sword in hand,

the last of Darry's ten...

And red the grass beneath his feet,

and red his banners bright,

and red the glow of the setting sun

that bathed him in its light,

"Come on, come on," the great lord called,

"my sword is hungry still."

And with a cry of savage rage,

They swarmed across the rill...

Known world

File:Ice and Fire World Map.png
The world of *A Song of Ice and Fire* has no overall name, with its inhabitants simply referring to it as 'the world'.

The world stretches for thousands upon thousands of miles, the majority of it covered by ocean. There are four known continents: Westeros, Essos, Sothoryos and Ulthos.

## Continents

* Westeros: Located in the far west of the known world, Westeros is a long, thin continent stretching for some three thousand miles from the Wall to the Summer Sea, with an unknown amount of land north of the Wall. Most of Westeros is united as a single political entity known as the 'Seven Kingdoms', ruled by the King on the Iron Throne in the city of King's Landing.
* Essos: Separated from Westeros by the Narrow Sea, Essos is an immense landmass, several times larger than Westeros. Unlike unified Westeros, Essos is fractious and unruly, consisting of numerous powerful city-states and only a few kingdoms.
* Sothoryos: A hot, humid land of dense jungles and burning deserts, located south of Essos and south-east of Westeros. It is known for its ruined cities, hairy apes and devastating plagues.
* Ulthos: A mysterious and obscure landmass, this continent lies south of Essos and east of Sothoryos. Virtually nothing is known about it.

## Seas and oceans

* The Sunset Sea lies to the west of Westeros. There has been no verified, successful crossing of the Sunset Sea to whatever lands lie beyond. Some of the ironborn have claimed to have discovered islands several weeks' sail to the west of Westeros, but these claims have not been confirmed.
* The Summer Sea is a large ocean located south of Westeros and Essos, separating those continents from Sothoryos. The island of Great Moraq separates the Summer Sea from the Jade Sea to the east. The Summer Islands are located in the Summer Sea, south-east of Westeros and west of Sothoryos.
* The Narrow Sea divides Westeros from Essos. It is separated from the Summer Sea by the islands known as the Stepstones. Several of the Free Cities lies on its shores.
* The Shivering Sea is the polar ocean, located north-east of Westeros and north of Essos. It is a freezing sea, wracked by horrendous storms during winter. The island of Ibben lies in the Shivering Sea, three thousand miles east of Westeros.
* The Jade Sea is a substantial body of water located south of Essos, divided from the Summer Sea by the island of Great Moraq. The great cities of Qarth and Asshai are located on its shores, along with the forbidding Shadow Lands and the nation of Yi Ti.

## History

House Mooton allied with Rhaenyra Targaryen during the Dance of the dragons, and Lord Manfryd hosted King Daemon Targaryen and Nettles, a baseborn dragonrider and Daemon's paramour, during the first stage of their operation in The Riverlands. Rhaenyra grew skeptical of Nettles after the betrayal of two of her other baseborn dragonriders and ordered her death, along with that of Ser Addam Velaryon.

A message is sent to Maidenpool instructing Lord Manfryd to kill Nettles, but spare daemon. Manfryd doesn't want to follow through on this request as he doesn't want to break guest right or incur the wrath of daemon and his dragon. Instead Norren suggests that manfryd pretend to have never seen the note, lifting him from the responsibility.

Instead of killing Nettles Norren shows the note to Daemon, who calls him a bad maester but a good man, and leaves with Nettles the next day, setting a course for Harrenhal. After this Norren offers up his chain to lord Manfryd and recommends sending him to King's Landing as a traitor. Instead Manfryd refuses and raises the banner of King Aegon II Targaryen over Maidenpool, claiming that they are all traitors.

Rhaego

**Rhaego** was the stillborn son of Daenerys Targaryen and Drogo.

Daenerys never sees her son but she is told that he was hideously deformed with scales of a dragon, and traces of wings.

## Appearance

While he may have been born deformed, this was only due to blood magic performed by Mirri Maz Duur. In the first book, A Game of Thrones, Daenerys has a vision of him with copper skin, platinum blonde hair, and almond-shaped violet eyes. This is most likely how he would have looked like, had he survived.

## Books

Rhaego is prophesied to be the stallion who mounts the world by the crones of the dosh khaleen at Vaes Dothrak just after the stallion heart ceremony.

After Rhaego's father, Drogo, becomes sick from an infected wound, the sorceress Mirri Maz Duur saves Drogo's life by using blood magic. One of the effects of that magic is that Rhaego dies right before birth. He was inhuman, hideously deformed and covered in dragon-like scales. He had the stub of a tail small leather wings, reminiscent of a bat. Rhaego was stillborn.

During her fever dream, Daenerys Targaryen sees her son tall and proud, with Drogo's copper skin and her own silver-gold hair, violet eyes shaped like almonds. He smiles at her and begins to lift his hand towards her, but when he opens his mouth fire pours out. She sees his heart burning through his chest and in an instant he is gone, consumed like a moth by a candle, turned to ash.
