Summerhall

**Summerhall** is a rebuilt castle in the Stormlands. Originally a lightly fortified castle used by House Targaryen as a summer castle and royal residence, it was destroyed in a great fire in 259 AC.

Located in or near the foothills of the Red Mountains, the castle of Summerhall is close to the stormlands' border with the Reach, east of the Cockleswhent and southeast of the Blueburn. The Boneway runs south from Summerhall through the Dornish Marches to Yronwood in Dorne.
The Liberation of the Riverlands

The Ironborn under Halfthor Greyjoy’s rule, never inserted themselves into the conflicts of others. The Ironborn prospered by raids to Essos and the pillaging of Essosi ships. One may even call Halfthor’s rule peaceful in the eyes of the Ironborn. The realm did not mess with the Ironborn and the ironmen did not stick their nose into the ways of Westeros. Words did travel though; Of Dorne, of the Stormlands and the Reach.  Halfthor’s two eldest sons, Balthazar and Sigfryd, along with a group of ironmen, traveled back from the Free Cities, having found most of what young men lust for: women, gold and a name. The Iron Islands were given a letter from the king stating that they were allowed to raid the Targaryen controlled Riverlands as well as any Essosi ship with Targaryen colours.

Halfthor took no time to rally forces and separate them: the more advanced to Essos, to raid the Dragon’s ships, and the rest to the Riverlands. Balthazar and Sigryd Greyjoy took the other part of the fleet to the Riverlands where they reaved and liberated both Seagard and Fairmarket.  Balthazar proved himself a leader because during the raiding, freeing the two keeps and maintaining a heavy presence, much like his ancestors of old did.. They were slow to give up the two steads, begrudgingly going back to sea once Stannis and his forces arrived.

Losing these two castles made Aelyx Targaryen realize that he had to fall back.

Sellsword Companies

A Sellsword is a mercenary who hires out his services to the highest bidder. Inevitably, this sort of lifestyle involves a great deal of violence and physical exertion. Many sellswords are organized into companies. Some of the sellsword companies are very disciplined (such as the Golden Company), and some are nothing but rabble joined together in search of loot (like the Brave Companions); the Second Sons and the Stormcrows are in the middle. Most tend to be experienced professional soldiers, as it is a profession a man tends to chose after he's tasted a few battles and learned that he's good at fighting.

The Free Cities have made heavy use of mercenaries for centuries, to fight their endless wars in the Stepstones and the Disputed Lands; as such there are more sellswords in Essos than in Westeros. Many of the mercenary soldiers of the east are organized into long-established sellsword companies, or "free companies". Many sellsword companies were involved in the Third Targaryen Rebellion, the majority of which pledged allegiance to the Dragonrider Aelyx Targaryen.

The Sunset Migration

## Summary

Lord Urrathon Farwynd, of the Lonely Light, attended the Quell in 340 with a strange dagger made from carved bone; he claimed it was made by natives of a mystical land across the Sunset Sea. His claims were met by laughs, but then he produced a handful of exotic gemstones many lords had not seen before. Farwynd proposed that they sail eastwards, in numbers, and see if they might find land more prosperous. Some of the more adventurous lords found the prospect interesting, and committed several ships to Urrathon’s proposition. In the early months of the year 341, Lord Farwynd lead a fleet of two and twenty ships across the Sunset Sea, each boat filled with men and women and grazing animals.

## Aftermath

They were not seen again, and many began to view the Farwynds with suspicion and accused them of leading their own people to death across the sea. In 346, Lord Gyles Farwynd of Sealskin Point sailed to the Lonely Light to demand compensation from his kinsmen; he had lost a daughter to Lord Urrathon Farwynd’s apparent failure. Gyles marched right into the great hall of the Lonely Light, while court was in session, and angrily demanded the young Lord Farwynd find some way to repay him. The young lord had risen from his seat, face dark and brooding. He had walked right up to Lord Gyles, who towered over him. Lord Maron Farwynd was only six-and-ten, but his fist bloodied Lord Gyles’s nose all the same. In front of his own court, Maron let fist after fist fall into Gyle’s face until the man was coughing blood. Gyles was then bundled back onto his longship, his pride hurting just as much as his face.

Visenya Hūra

## Biography

Visenya was born in 384 in Braavos. She was born in the moon temple to the High priestess of the Moonsingers. In the years that followed she was raised by other priestess in the temple as her mother was almost always traveling.

Everyday she would train to be a priestess to, training in the ways of the moon goddess and healing. And it was like that for a few years, she was only 4 years old when the first sword of Braavos came to the temple to pray and Visenya was playing in the garden with a stick pretending to be a warrior, he came to her saying she had a natural fluid form and such a talent should not be wasted away. After a few weeks her mother came from Volantis and was asked by the Sea Lord for Visenya to be trained to one day be the First Sword.

For 3 years she trained without rest everyday since sunrise until dawn and some days a teacher would come to teacher history, westerosi common tongue and other things. One day the teacher started the lesson with a book called "Aegon's Conquest", she had a lot of questions like why would she have the same hair and eye color, and the name, her own name why would it be in the book. She asked to see her mother a couple of weeks later, as she was ready to leave for other travel. But Visenya wouldn't have it and requested a couple of mouths pause in her training to go with her mother.

In the trip to Qohor, her mother explained to her, she was going to a dark place to heal an important blacksmith, and it was in that trip that she asked about her father. Her mother wouldn't tell her the name, but she confirmed he was a Targaryen. When they arrived at the city the stench of blood was in the air. While her mother was going about her business, she was roaming around the city, it was there that she saw a blond man, not as blonde as her but blonde non the less. She thought he was a Targaryen, she approached the man witch showed her the city and kept her company, before leaving she asked him if he was a Targaryen, he found it quite funny he later told her he was Tidus Lannister of Casterly Rock. A few days later she left the Qohor back to Braavos to resume her training.

Back in Braavos she trained for more 7 years, becoming an excellent fighter and archer. In the unmasking festival that year there was a small friendly competition between the water dancing masters and their respective students, every master in the region was there and everyone wanted to see what the student of the First Sword had to offer, she defeated every single one like the course of a river she was unstoppable. As a prize her master gave her a sword fitting of a First Sword, she quickly named it Night's Kiss.

A few weeks later she was in the streets and over heard a conversation, "The Targaryens had won the battle for Volantis". She decided to finally go and try and find her father, and so she left Braavos and set way to Volantis.

The Smith

## Leader of The Smiths

Once named Septon Jon Mallister, The Smith claimed to be the Avatar of the Smith, creating his own theocratic doctrine. Through his teachings, a militant group of Septons and knights now known as The Smiths were formed.

Wielding banners bearing the hammer and anvil and wore necklaces featuring a hammer, the revolts they facilitated quickly turned violent and leading to the Great Schism.

Septons that still follow his example are known as Smiths.

## Teachings

* All men are created. The creator god is the Smith. Therefore we should praise him and extoll his virtues above all others.

* The Pact of the Conciliator has irredeemably corrupted the institution of the Faith. From this day hence, the pact is considered null and void.

* Men are sinful, so they cannot know the will of the gods. Only the Seven themselves can choose who their voices are.
The Battle of the Krakens

It was no little surprise that Euron and Victarion were unhappy with the way that Balon Greyjoy ruled.  They were Ironmen, they needed to raid, to live the Old Way, not cower on their Islands while everything else went to shit. Instead, Balon had called back all of his ships and men and waited for the opportune time to strike. Westeros was at War, but the Iron Islands stayed neutral, waiting for the greenlanders to grow soft and thin themselves out. Then it would be a good time to strike the lands, when the armies were weakened and they had a better chance of pillaging.

Euron had another plan. With Victarion whispering in his ear, persuading him to fight, to be of iron, to rule, Euron confronted Balon. There was screaming. There was yelling. There were threats. Men of Iron did not sit around and wait. They had the men, they had the ships, why not raid? They settled on a game that they had played when they were younger- fingerdancing. Balon was dead, Victarion - missing a hand, and Euron, bloodied all over. In the midst of antagonizing Victarion, Euron was cut short by an axe to the throat- silencing him forever. The wounds for Victarion were grave though and soon after he succumbed to infection. Damphair chose the nonviolent route, siding with whoever won. Unfortunately, only Theon and Asha were left to rule.

## History

He became the First Lord Commander of the Iron Order, a standing Army Stannis created to defend his interests and rulership. Selwyn would lead the army around Westeros, crushing brigand groups, mountain clans, and wildlings at the wall. Selwyn was noted to have hated ruling. Earned his nickname through his aggressive leadership.

Shadow Tower

The **Shadow Tower** is one of three castles along the Wall that are still inhabited by the Night's Watch. It is located next to mountains at the western end of the Wall. It lies west of Sentinel Stand and east of Westwatch-by-the-Bridge, both abandoned castles.

The Shadow Tower is commanded by Dalten Reed and its Maester is \_\_\_. Roughly two hundred men of the Watch are stationed at the Shadow Tower. Most wear leather and fur, although some are armored with bronze or steel. Some are armed with longaxes and eight-foot spears. Free folk sometimes descend into the Gorge to bypass the Shadow Tower.
Volon Therys

Volon Therys is a town on the Western bank of the river Rhoyne in Essos. Further down the Rhoyne lies the free city Volantis.

Ever since the Tiger triarch expansion, the town has been under the authority of Volantis. Volon Therys is a walled town, and to Westerosi standards, it would classify as a small city. The town walls are white and high.

## History

Volon Therys was founded by the Valyrian Freehold, following their victory over the Old Empire of Ghis. Considered glorious and rich, the town did not have self-rule and was governed by Valyria.

The town was involved in the Rhoynish wars. During the First Turtle War, half of the city was washed away when the Rhoynar used water magic. At the Second Spice War, Volon Therys faced the Rhoynish prince Garin the Great.Though the Valyrians numbered over 100,000 with three dragonlords, the Rhoynish were protected by their water wizards and their archers took down two dragons and drove away the third, making sure the day was theirs. After the Valyrian defeat, Volon Therys was flooded yet again.
Sunspear

**Sunspear** is a castle that acts as the seat of House Nymeros Martell and the capital of Dorne. The castle is located north of the Greenblood on the far southeastern coast of Westeros and is surrounded on three sides by the sea. The princely Water Gardens lie three leagues away on the coastal road.

## Layout

### Sunspear

Sunspear is a walled settlement, protected by three massive Winding Walls encircling one another and containing miles of narrow alleys, hidden courts, and noisy bazaars. The Threefold Gate, where the gates are lined up one behind the other, avoids the labyrinth, instead allowing straight passage on a brick path to the Old Palace.

Rising from the Old Palace is the Spear Tower, which can house noble prisoners in cells at its top, and the Tower of the Sun, which contains the seat of the Prince of Dorne.

The Sandship, the original stronghold of the Martells, is a large dun-colored building that looks like a dromond.

### Shadow city

Clinging to and overshadowed by the castle's massive Winding Walls, the so-called shadow city spreads westwards. Mud-brick shops and windowless hovels are closest to the walls, then west of those are stables, inns, winesinks, pillow houses, some with walls of their own. More hovels and buildings then spread beyond those walls. The shadow city is no more than a town when compared to the Free Cities, but it is the closest thing to a true city that the Dornishmen have.

Septon Nestor

## Holy Legate for Dorne

Septon Nestor is a Septon of the Faith of the Seven, and one of the leading leftists in the Faith. It has been rumoured that he still sides with the Smiths in matters of theology. He is the current Holy Legate to Dorne.

## History

If the current High Septon is thought of as a far right theologian. Nestor is his polar opposite...Indeed, it is a wonder that the Septon has lasted as long as he has in a position of power.

His views are most unorthodox, going so far as to allow R'hllorians to practice their faith in the Sept, and even partake in it himself! (So it is rumoured.)

In recent years many have come forward claiming to be bastards of Septon Nestor, or else former lovers...Nestor has denied these claims, able to pass them off as Dornish gossip.

Perhaps the least Orthodox member of the Most Devout, Nestor has already questioned and issued letters of complaint against the High Septon.
The Folly of the White Cloak

### Outcome

Short-lived Targaryen victory, death of Garlan Hightower and the remainder of the Kingsguard aside from Lewys Tully and Marq Penrose.

Following the Burning of Tumbleton, Maekar Targaryen moves his forces towards the capital, aiming to arrive before Alyn Baratheon.

Maekar Targaryen arrives just outside King’s Landing and demands the city’s immediate surrender. The Small Council, and their emergency replacements, meet to decide what to do. The Lord Commander of the Kingsguard, a brash and arrogant man known as Ser Garlan Hightower, outright refused to surrender, and smacked the city watch commander who suggested it, and was named the commander of the defensive force, which he named the Grand Royal Army. He levied every man he could from the city and marched out to meet the encroaching Targaryen force. The Lord Commander’s men were hastily assembled and rushed out poorly supplied and poorly commanded. Ser Garlan Hightower might have been an excellent bodyguard, but he was a terrible commander. King’s Landing could only watch as the Lord Commander lead his men to their death.

Maekar made quick work of his forces and slew the Lord Commander personally when Hightower made a mad dash for the Targaryen’s position. The Folly of the White Cloak almost ruined the city, but the Baratheons were having none of it.
Willum Stark

## Ranger of the Night's Watch

**Willum Stark** was born in 358 AC, the firstborn son of Lord Arlan Stark and Lady Raeanna Umber.

## Early Life

As a boy, Willum's father doted upon his firstborn. As a result, Willum grew to be a spoiled, indolent child. He did whatever he fancied, ignored his maester' lessons, and often stole toys from his younger brother Corin. As Willum grew older, his fancies turned more towards women. Willum bedded every young maiden he could get his hands on, and produced an unknown number of bastards across the North. Willum soon gathered to himself a small group of friends that he led in degenerate all-night orgies. In 376 AC, a dispute over a girl between the brothers led Corin to leave Winterfell for Essos. Willum scarcely noticed his brothers absence. He spent his days and nights whoring as he always had, and doing little of what was expected of him as the future Lord of Winterfell. In 380 AC, his ways finally caught up with him. Willum had bedded the young daughter of Lord Mormont, and his father forced him to marry the young girl. The two said their vows in the godswood of Winterfell, but within four days, Willum was back to his usual antics at the nearest brothel. For his actions, Willum was disinherited by his father, and his brother Corin sent him to the Wall.

## Brother of the Night's Watch

On the Wall, Willum was shocked to find the rough conditions he was expected to live in after growing up in the comfort of Winterfell. The Black Brothers drilled him in the use of swords until Willum was black and blue. After being named a Ranger, Willum began his trips North of the Wall. To many people's surprise, including Willum's, he was quite good at navigating the treacherous, icy terrain beyond the Wall. He did his duty, more out of fear than desire, but often snuck away to have his way with captured Wildling girls. Whenever he returned to Castle Black, he would make his way as quickly as possible to Mole's Town and find the closest whore. As long as he could still fuck whores, Willum thought, he could deal with his lot in life on the Wall.

In 390 AC, a King Beyond The Wall named Mamon Longshanks attacked the Wall with a Wildling host and a bastard of Willum's at his side, Ryen. Lord Corin rode to the rescue of the Night's Watch, much to Willum's shame. In the years since, he has dedicated himself to being a better man and Black Brother, though he still can barely resist the temptation of a Mole's Town whore. He became one of the top Rangers at Castle Black, often leading forays into the wilds beyond the Wall.
Stackspear

Stackspear is the name given to the small region under the control of the lordly House Stackspear. The area is primarily agricultural, with basic infrastructure such as mills and smithys in the humble villages and hamlets. Fort Stackspear is the ancestral keep of the House, and the key defensive emplacement in Stackspear lands.

## Fort Stackspear

Fort Stackspear is a small keep, made from heavy stone quarried in the Stackspear region approximately three hundred years previous. The walls of its building are thick and strong, but the sacrifices made in the construction and maintenance of the fort prevent it from being built on a raised motte or slope. The squared towers are outdated in comparison to rounded techniques and so elements of the fort are vulnerable to advanced siege weaponry.

Fort Stackspear is the ancestral hold of the Stackspear family and is currently held by Lord Selmond Stackspear, but is governed by his uncle, Ser Harras.
Torgold Humble

## Biography

Torgold was born in 333 A.C to Lysa and Theon Humble. As a child he showed promise, he could haul an entire net by the age of 11 and showed promise in his abilities as a sailor. But to his Fathers dismay Torgold was completely incapable of using an Axe, even while being trained with a sword Torgold showed a lack of capability.

Theon Humble was known for his promiscuity having over a dozen salt wives and a handful of Bastards Torgold was his only child born to his sweet Rock wife. In 345 A.C while playing in the courtyard with his future wife and cousin Kyra, Torgold was cornered by his Bastard Brother. Torgold fended him off with a broken table leg and overcame him. It was from this point Torgold found his love for maces, and it would be a tradition that has continued even to his grandson Cleos.

After this his Father had a Mace fashioned in a Sand Anchor and gave it to Torgold, he named it Lysa after his Mother who had only passed a year earlier. It would be his constant companion even until his death.

After sailing under his Cousin for a season in 350 A.C pirating the coasts near Braavos, Torgold was made captain of his Grandfathers own Longship the Humble Maiden. A beautiful longship made from Ash wood and Iron, he flew the anchor of his house with the Kraken below it and has until this day.

During the years of 350 A.C and 360 A.C Torgolds Father grew sick and spent his time fishing and hunting at Muttonbirds nest. He longed for the excitment of pirating once again and sailed for the Axe where he made most his fortune. He married his cousin in 362 while docked in Muttonbirds nest and then returned to the ocean.

Vera Redwyne

## Lady of Highgarden

Vera Redwyne was a pious woman, and the wife of Lord Garlan Tyrell, and mother of Lord Loras Tyrell. She is the sister of the current Lord Redwyne, with whom she had a good relationship and kept in close contact with during her life.

## Appearance

Vera was considered a plain woman in her life, and she maintained an image of propriety until her death.

## Personality

Vera was extremely pious. She made countless donations to the Faith of the Seven, developed friendships with known zealots, and was said to visit Oldtown and King's Landing yearly to pray at the various septs. She was never a happy woman, and was said to be miserable during her married life due to her husband's infidelity and their inability to conceive healthy children. Her life only improved in 360, with the birth of her son Loras Tyrell. Regardless of her plights, she never blamed her husband, privately or publicly, instead blaming herself for her failure as a wife. She doted on her son Loras until her death in 369.

## History

Vera was a private woman who kept only a small circle of close friends. She disliked the life at court, specifically the lack of morals displayed by the lords and ladies. More than that, she disliked most women, as her servants kept her informed of her husband's various dalliances. She remained silent due to her feelings of inadequacy and shame due to several still births, until 360 when she birthed Loras Tyrell, her husband's heir, when she became more vocal about her feelings.

In 368, when her son was just eight, her handmaiden informed her of a rumor involving a new lady-in-waiting of hers, Beatris Peake, and her husband Garlan. As her husband seemed incapable of fathering bastards, she allowed him to keep his autonomy, but refused to swallow her pride once more for her vain and arrogant, not-so-loyal companion. She threatened to expose Beatris and to take her son Loras to the Arbor, if he didn't stop his ways.

Garlan denied the rumors, and when approached, so did Beatris. In the end, Lorent--after some pressure from his desperate brother--agreed to marry his brother's purported mistress.

Vera became pregnant once more. While traveling in the Westerlands, her caravan was attacked, cauing her to go into premature labor. While the babe survived, she did not. The fate of the babe is unknown.
Willem Tyrell

## Scion of House Tyrell

Willem was doted on by his mother Beatris Peake and older sister Eleyna Rowan when he was born. Unfortunately he lived a short and uneventful life, and spent most of it hidden away or in bed, due to his breathing sickness.

## Appearance

He had brown hair and the classic Tyrell honey eyes.

## Personality

He was a quiet and shy boy, docile, and well mannered. He was compared to his late uncle, Olyvar Tyrell, who also died young.

## History

He was born sick and had difficulty breathing his whole life. Just months before his death, maesters believed that his health was improving due to a decline in his coughing and wheezing. He died unexpectedly in his sleep.

Rurik Goodbrother

## Biography

Rurik is the second born son of Erik Goodbrother, now deceased, and a lowborn woman named Larra. He was brought to life on the Fifth Moon of 356 AC, and has since then participated in many raids on the coast of Westeros. Being a pretender and not having been groomed to rule, Rurik received minimal court training, which is why, for Rurik, the sword has always been mightier than the pen. He is illiterate, though it is a detail that is not oft revealed.

As a child, being the youngest of the Goodbrother stock, he was used to constantly being overshadowed. His brother, Harren, was groomed to perfection, and Rurik considered him to be everything he wanted to be. There were times during his teenage years when he wanted to kill Harren, but he was never capable of doing it. Whatever Rurik wanted to do, his brother could pick it up faster and perform much better; thus, when Rurik came of age, he swore that he would not cut his beard until he defeated his brother in a duel.

The time for Rurik to prove his worth never came, though, as Harren would soon die of bloody flux in an ambitious bid to raid the Free Cities. Rurik was filled with both grief and excitement; on one hand because his brother's death meant that he was the sole heir to Hammerhorn, but on the other hand because Rurik had never expected his brother to die by anything except his own hand. Regardless, his brother's death served for great motivation; Rurik became a skilled warrior, and his beard has never stopped growing ever since.

Years after his brother's death, the Goodbrother ilk grew once more. Alas, Rurik now had a sister, Gwyneth; a fierce personality who was unfortunately born crippled, rendered unable to move her legs. As per tradition, her father's intent was to kill her at first, but Rurik argued against murdering one's kith and kin. In the end, the girl's life was spared, but her life hasn't been easy, as many Lords see those who are lame as a stain upon one's family.

Rurik's father died at the age of 60 on the Third Moon of 390 AC, seemingly of natural causes. Ever since then, Rurik has ruled as Lord of Hammerhorn, and has had three bastard children whom he recognises, namely Sigfryd, Sigorn and Otto, and possibly many more of those who are unheard of.

Septon Marsell Fellay

## Holy Legate

Marsell Fellay is a Septon of the Faith of the Seven and a member of the Most Devout. He currently is serving as Holy Legate to the Court of Orys Baratheon.

## History

Marsell Fellay has had a storied past indeed. For during the Great Schism he not only took the side of the Faith, but did so more than almost any other Septon. He was on the forefront of calling for the demise of every one of the Smiths, indeed even after the conflict had ended it was suspected that he had a role in the bands who went about to hunt the Smiths down.

But apparently his actions found favor with the High Septon, who raised him to the Most Devout, giving the far right a strong voice within the Faith.

## The House of Proper Learning

Disgusted with the corruption he found amongst some of the Septons, he founded his own school of teaching for them in the year 390 AC. At times the teachings of this school have been so strict that some of the left-leaning Most Devout have described them as zealots.

Trouble came in 397 AC when Fellay ordained five Septons whom were considered to be ultra-radicals, calling for the deaths of even Northmen and Ironborn. Fellay defended the ordinations saying that in truth, that was the teaching of the Faith.

The Most Devout decided to place him under suspension, one that had apparently recently been lifted by the new High Septon himself.

## Holy Legate

Recently Marsell has had his faculties restored, his school of teaching opened anew, and has been given the title and role of Holy Legate to Orys Baratheon, a sign that his fortunes are changing under the new leader of the Faith.

Die Gilde 2: Renaissance

**Die Gilde 2: Renaissance** ist eine Stand-alone-Erweiterung zu *Die Gilde 2*, die im August 2010 erschienen ist. Das aus Fan-Moddern bestehende Studio Runeforge Game Studios übernahm die Entwicklung und JoWood wie zuvor auch den Vertrieb.

*Renaissance* entstand aus den ehemals separaten Fan-Erweiterungen *Die Gilde 2: Handwerk, Prunk & fauler Zauber* und *Die Gilde 2: Aufstieg der Patrizier* und wurde letztendlich offiziell. Es sollte vieles besser machen als das „magere“ Stand-alone *Die Gilde 2: Venedig*, denn es gab viel mehr Neuerungen und vor allem einen Mehrspielermodus, allerdings war es insgesamt ziemlich fehlerbehaftet. Ein weiterer Kritikpunkt ist die veraltete Grafik, denn seit dem Release von *Die Gilde 2* 2006 hat sich grafisch nicht viel verändert.

## Inhalt

* Inhalt von *Die Gilde 2*
* Überarbeitete KI und Umgebung
* Überarbeitetes Spielsystem
* Größere Karten und Szenarien
* Neue Berufe wie Söldner, Steinmetz, etc.

The Order of Firetenders

## Introduction

The Order of Firetenders is a group of warrior-scholars who keep the massive fire at the peak of the Lonely Tower ablaze. They are currently led by Harras Farwynd, the uncle of the current Lord Sylas Farwynd.

## History

The Firetenders date back to before the discovery of the island by House Farwynd; when they arrived at the island there was a lone man living in what they called 'The Lonely Tower'. This man didn't speak the common tongue nor any other languages they could translate, and at first the Ironborn thought he might have been trying to escape the island due to the massive fire atop the tower.

After several attempts to take the man from the island, it was obvious that the man wouldn't leave the island until he died. The lord Farwynd decided he and his men would stay with the man for a couple days, and share their rations with him. In this time they observed how the man would clean the tower, would keep the fire going, would tend to the books in the library.

Eventually, the man grew accustomed to the presence of the Ironborn, and allowed them use of his library. They found books in all sorts of languages, from Valyrian to the Common Tongue to languages they had never seen before. Lord Farwynd eventually decided that he would settle on the island, granting it as a gift to his second son. He also ordered his third son to study the Firetender, to follow his ways.

In years to come several people would join the man, to study the vast library and keep the fire burning. When the old man died, the now-Lord of the Lonely Light decreed that the Firetender would live on through the study and graft of those who had joined him. Over the years, the numbers of Firetenders would vary, never less than five but never more than thirty students. Many Maesters would also make the journey to the Lonely Light, to study the ancient tower and the library.

## Duties/Mantra

* To keep the great fire alight, so that none may lose their way in the darkness
* To keep the tower standing, so that the great fire may never go out
* To tend to the tower's secrets, to the library and lore
