―Daenerys Targaryen, referring to Viserion's death
**Viserion** was one of the three dragons hatched by Daenerys Targaryen in the wastelands beyond Lhazar, alongside his brothers Drogon and Rhaegal. He was named for Daenerys' elder brother, Viserys Targaryen. He can be distinguished by his cream and gold scales, and red-orange wings.

He was killed during the Wight Hunt when the Night King threw an ice spear, before he being resurrected as an ice dragon by the Night King to serve as his personal mount. He was killed again during the Fall of Winterfell by dragonglass scorpion bolts fired by Gendry Baratheon and Edric Storm, before being resurrected again shortly following the battle.

He was finally killed for good during the Battle of Dragonstone, when he and the Night King lost a duel with Drogon and Daenerys, before being incinerated by a massive wildfire explosion lit by a flaming arrow shot by Edric Storm.

Three Daughters

The **Three Daughters**, sometimes referred to as the **Third Triarchy**, is the successor state to the Second Triarchy, a union of the Free Cities of Myr, Lys and Tyrosh, formed in 315 AC following the Triarchy's defeat in the War of the Narrow Sea.

## History

### Formation

The creation of the Three Daughters was championed by Captain of the Golden Company Harry Strickland, who successfully negotiated with the occupying Westerosi forces to take control of the region and ensure the creation of a regime friendly to the Iron Throne.

Harry Strickland oversaw the transformation of the Golden Company from a sellsword company to a state militia, and the expansion of the captaincy of the Golden Company to that of Lord Protector of the Three Daughters, in which he served as it's inaugural holder.

As per the demands of King Gendry Baratheon's Small Council, slavery was abolished in the region, and the state was established in effect as a vassal of the Seven Kingdoms. It worked closely with the newly-formed Stepstones Guard in keeping the Narrow Sea free of piracy, a relationship it upholds to the present.

### War of Gold and Iron

During the later reign of Gendry's son, Robert II Baratheon, the Three Daughters began to drift beyond the political orbit (and thus, the implicit protection) of the Iron Throne, emboldening it's immediate neighbours to attack. In 374 AC, skirmishes along the border marches with Volantis escalated into a full-scale war.

After two years of fighting, King Robert forced both sides to a negotiated settlement after his daughter, Princess Ysabel Baratheon, was killed in battle fighting alongside the ironborn. Robert's negotiations largely favoured the Three Daughters, forcing Volantis to cede most of the lands claimed by Lys and Myr.

In the war's aftermath, the bonds between the Seven Kingdoms and the Three Daughters were firmly strengthened, but many in the Free Cities in turn began to resent the existence of the Three Daughters, viewing it as a thinly-veiled occupation of three of the Free Cities by the Seven Kingdoms.

### New Daughters War

The Free Cities' turn against the Three Daughters culminated in the New Daughters War breaking out in 427 AC, with an alliance of Pentos, Volantis and Qohor attacking the Three Daughters. The Seven Kingdoms under Queen Lyanna I Baratheon intervened immediately, siding with the Three Daughters.

The war ultimately dragged on for six years, only ending in 433 AC after both sides had exhausted themselves. King Lyonel I Baratheon, the uncle of the since-deceased Queen Lyanna, negotiated a peace which enforced a status quo ante bellum, but largely cut of the Iron Throne's alliance and support of the Three Daughters in the process, to appease both the Free Cities and the war-weary population of Westeros.

### Black Succession

The Three Daughters have thus far remained neutral in the Black Succession, making the state the target of courting attempts by the three claimants.
Trial by combat of Eldrick Baratheon

* Ser Cedrick Baratheon yields to King Robert III Baratheon, injured and humiliated

Factions| * **Iron Throne**/House Baratheon of King's Landing

Casualties| None | * Ser Cedrik Baratheon (injured)

The **trial by combat of Eldrick Baratheon** was the concluding event of the Bloodless War, taking place in the Red Keep of King's Landing. It saw Prince Eldrick Baratheon acquitted of an alleged assault on Ser Cedrik Baratheon of Storm's End, following a duel between Ser Cedrik and King Robert III Baratheon.

## History

### Prelude

Following the trials in King's Landing, King Robert III Baratheon's position was largely secured, although he remained unpopular among the nobility and the smallfolk. Leaning on this, the arrogant but popular Ser Cedrik Baratheon, son of Lord Selwyn Baratheon and Princess Lyra Baratheon, felt spurned after King Robert named his steadfast but elderly ally, Prince Eddard Baratheon, to the Small Council instead of himself.

In 392 AC, barely a year into King Robert's reign, Cedrik accused Eddard's son, Eldrick Baratheon, of assaulting him in the streets of King's Landing. Playing off the support of the court, Cedrik demanded that any court trial be forgoed in favour of a trial by combat to ascertain the guilt of Prince Eldrick. Many, including King Robert himself, suspected this was a veiled play for the Iron Throne.

### Trial by combat

Prince Eldrick offered to duel Ser Cedrik himself, but Robert insisted he name himself as his champion. The trial took place in the Dragonpit among a crowd of spectators, with King Robert wielding Blackfyre. After a lengthy duel, King Robert landed a blow on Ser Cedriks sword arm, disarming him and forcing him to yield.

### Aftermath

The duel roundly humiliated Ser Cedrik, ending any hopes he had of gathering support to take the Iron Throne from King Robert. Cedrik was permanently injured during the duel, and never swung a sword again. Cedrik was soon mocked as "Little Argilac", in reference to the last Storm King, Argilac the Arrogant.

King Robert's decision to fight for Prince Eldrick's honour personally greatly improved his popularity among the smallfolk (and later, the nobility), and was seen as the final act that cemented Robert's place on the Iron Throne following years of turmoil and uncertainty.
Apprehension of Noho Dimittis

Factions| * **Iron Throne**/House Baratheon of King's Landing
* House Baratheon of Storm's End
* Kingsguard
* House Blackwater

The **apprehension of Noho Dimittis** was an event that took place in the months following the death of King Gendry I Baratheon and the subsequent duel atop the Hightower.

## History

### Prelude

Noho Dimittis had previously served as the Iron Bank of Braavos's envoy to the Seven Kingdoms and heavily championed the Iron Bank's alliance with the Second Triarchy and Euron Greyjoy after the Iron Throne refused to pay off the debts of Queen Cersei I Lannister. As such, he was seen as an architect of the War of the Narrow Sea and thus Lyanna and Orryn Baratheon sought to kill him out of revenge and justice for the thousands of deaths caused by the war, among them Orryn's father, Edric Baratheon, and Lyanna's mother, Arya Stark.

### Apprehension

Carried out by Princess Lyanna Baratheon, Lord Orryn Baratheon of Storm's End, Ser Jaime Lannister of the Kingsguard, and Lord Bronn Blackwater of the Twins, the group tracked Noho down to Lannisport, where he was working as a travelling merchant, captured him and brought him to a cliff overlooking the Sunset Sea just outside of the city. The men eventually left Noho alone with Lyanna, and she returned to them alone. Despite Orryn's efforts, Lyanna refused to disclose what she did to Noho, and his ultimate fate remained unconfirmed.

### Aftermath

Noho Dimittis was never heard from again. Furthermore, Lyanna continued her silence, never telling anyone what she did to Noho. Many suspect she let him free, not wanting to continue down her path of bloodlust that nearly led to the death of her mother during the Great War.

* Martha Mackintosh (Telltale)

**Bastard paternal half siblings:**
Josera Snow
Elsera Snow

**Mira Forrester** was the elder daughter of Lord Gregor Forrester and his wife, Lady Elissa Branfield, the younger sister of Rodrik and Asher Forrester, the older sister of Ethan, Talia and Ryon Forrester, and the half-sister of Josera and Elsera Snow. Following the Great War, she became a handmaiden and eventual secret paramour to Lady Sansa Stark of Winterfell.

## Biography

### Background

Some time prior to the War of the Five Kings, she was sent to Highgarden to serve as handmaiden to Margaery Tyrell. With Margaery's betrothal to King Joffrey Baratheon, Mira followed her to live in King's Landing, despite wishing to return home.

After nearly being executed for the murder of a Lannister soldier, Mira escaped King's Landing and managed to reunite with her surviving siblings. Her brother Asher managed to retake Ironrath from House Whitehill following the Battle of the Bastards, although they were once again forced to flee south for the duration of the Great War, hiding out in the Vale of Arryn after being evacuated from White Harbor.

Following the Great War, Mira moved to the Winterfell court to serve House Stark.

### *A Dream of Spring*

Mira accompanied Sansa Stark throughout the duration of the War of the Narrow Sea; thus coming to reside in King's Landing once again for a time. After Sansa's brief affair with Ser Jaime Lannister of the Kingsguard, she took to Sansa's bed, becoming her illicit paramour.

* Princess Ysabel Baratheon †

Casualties| **Heavy*** Rodrik Goodbrother
* Ysabel Baratheon

The **Battle of Valysar** was a battle during the War of Gold and Iron, taking place at Valysar, a vassal town of the Free City of Volantis. Despite a tactical victory for the Volantenes, the battle's outcome would prompt an intervention by the Seven Kingdoms.

## History

### Prelude

Earlier in the year, the war had turned against Volantis. The combined armies of the Golden Company and Ironborn had driven the Volantene forces from the border marches which they laid claim to. Throughout the preceding months, the invading armies had begun taking numerous villages and towns under the control of Volantis.

### Battle

Before long, the invading forces had reached Valysar, a 'town' under Volantene control bigger than King's Landing and second in population only to the city itself. This fact came as a surprise to the army leaders Rodrik Goodbrother and Princess Ysabel Baratheon, who were caught off guard by the scale of the city and it's defences.

In the ensuing battle, the Golden Company and Ironborn troops none-the-less succeeded in breaching the walls, and began fighting through the town itself. Unfortunately, the couple were caught in an ambush, and both were felled by the blades of Volantene warriors. Their leadership decapitated, the remaining forces were soon after forced to withdraw.

### Aftermath

Although an all-round tactical victory for the Volantenes, the battle would infamously prompt the intervention of the Iron Throne of the Seven Kingdoms, as it had seen the death of the daughter of King Robert II Baratheon. King Robert would ultimately negotiate settlement to end the conflict, siding mostly with the demands presented by the Three Daughters.
Garlan Hightower

He was married to Lady Delena Oakheart, with whom he had two children; Hobert and Lyra Hightower. During the War of the Narrow Sea, Baelor concluded a future marriage pact with House Baratheon, agreeing to marry Garlan's daughter, Lyra, to King Gendry I Baratheon's son and heir, Robert Baratheon, when both came of age. Shortly after Robert ascended the Iron Throne, Lyra was married to Robert, becoming Queen Consort of the Seven Kingdoms.

However, King Robert successfully disarmed Cedrik, wounding both his sword arm and ego to the point of no recovery. Cedrik's popularity waned, eventually prompting him to return to Storm's End in disgrace.
Hot Pie

"*You need sour cherries to make it right, and the secret is you dry the stones, and then you break them with a mallet. That's where the real flavor is. You crush 'em up real fine and then, when you're finished, sprinkle them over the pie crust...*"
―Hot Pie demonstrates his fine knowledge of the bakery arts
**Hot Pie** was an orphaned baker's apprentice from Flea Bottom and later servant and close friend of King Gendry Baratheon and Queen Arya Stark.

Shortly after the outbreak of the War of the Five Kings, Hot Pie was taken north by Night's Watch recruiter Yoren, alongside Gendry and Arya, eventually befriending the two. He was taken to Harrenhal after Lannister forces attacked the group and killed Yoren, ultimately escaping alongside Arya and Gendry. The three were then captured by the Brotherhood Without Banners and taken to the Inn at the Crossroads, where Hot Pie remained at the innkeeper's request due to his bakery skills.

He remained there for five years until the Great War, where he was reunited with his friends and forced to flee south to King's Landing to escape the Army of the Dead. He survived the Battle of King's Landing, and went on to join Gendry's royal household as his head baker.

House Giantsbane

**House Giantsbane of Castle Black** is a recently-established vassal house founded by the Free Folk, holding fealty to House Stark of Winterfell. Their lands consist of much of the former Gift and Haunted Forest beyond the Wall, laid to the east of the Frostfangs. Their seat is Castle Black, the former stronghold of the Night's Watch located along the Wall.

## History

### Background

House Giantsbane traces its origins back to Tormund, a renowned Free Folk warrior who took the name 'Giantsbane' after claiming to have slain a giant when he was ten. Tormund went on to play a prominent role in the conflict against the White Walkers, effectively becoming their de-facto leader by the conclusion of the Great War. Tormund was a key signatory of the Treaty of Long Lake, which formally inducted the Free Folk into the Seven Kingdoms, and was thus offered the newly-vacant Castle Black by Lady Sansa Stark. Tormund ostensibly snubbed the offer, and maintained the traditional rugged lifestyle of his people well into his old age.

### Founding

As Tormund grew into his old age, he and his family finally moved into Castle Black. Tormund's eldest son, Toregg, negotiated with Lady Sansa Stark, establishing for his family formal control over large swaths of land in the former Gift and beyond the Wall, under the provisions they maintain peace and fealty for Winterfell.

### Evolution

By the events of the Black Succession, the Giantsbanes had adopted many Northern cultural and political traditions, more so than any of the other Free Folk houses and clans. They are the only Free Folk house to have fully adopted a feudal regime, even maintaining a number of vassals of their own. They remain the most powerful and politically sophisticated of the Free Folk, and have arisen to become a cornerstone ally of House Stark.
Needle

**Needle** is a steel smallsword owned by House Baratheon of King's Landing, the royal House of the Seven Kingdoms.

It was originally wielded by Arya Stark, after Jon Snow gifted her the blade shortly before the outbreak of the War of the Five Kings. Following Arya's death during the War of the Narrow Sea, the blade was passed down to her daughter, Lyanna Baratheon. The sword has remained in the possession of House Baratheon of King's Landing ever since.

**Sandor Clegane**, colloquially known as **the Hound**, was the younger brother of Ser Gregor Clegane.

He initially served as Prince Joffrey Baratheon's personal bodyguard, and after Joffrey ascended the Iron Throne, he was named to Joffrey's Kingsguard. Sandor begrudgingly served his new king until the Battle of the Blackwater, when he deserted and travelled north. He was captured by the Brotherhood Without Banners and tried by combat for his numerous crimes against the smallfolk, but was acquitted when he defeated Beric Dondarrion. He later kidnapped Arya Stark and attempted to ransom her to Lysa Arryn, but lost her and was grievously wounded after an altercation with Brienne of Tarth.

He was later taken in by Brother Ray and his congregation as a means to find peace, before they were murdered by rogue members of the Brotherhood Without Banners. After encountering Beric Dondarrion again, he agreed to formerly join the Brotherhood and fight against the Army of the Dead. He fought in the Wight Hunt and the Fall of Winterfell, until he was killed in a fight with his brother and bitter rival, Gregor Clegane, during the Siege of King's Landing.

**Arya**: "*Were you with other girls? Before that in King's Landing? Or after?... You don't remember?*"
**Gendry**: "*Yes, I was.*"
— Arya Stark and Gendry Baratheon, referring to Gendry's previous relationship with Myrielle
**Myrielle**, often referred to as **Lady Myrielle**, was a merchant's daughter from Lannisport and a lover of Gendry Baratheon, and served him as his Mistress of Whisperers, and briefly as Hand of the King, after he ascended the Iron Throne.

Myrielle spent almost her entire childhood in King's Landing, and spent most of her adolescence mingling with nobility and smallfolk alike. Around 302 AC, she fell in love with the then-blacksmith Gendry, starting a long-term relationship with him, although Gendry had broken off the relationship by 304 AC. She survived the Great War, and after Gendry ascended the the throne as King Gendry Baratheon, he named her as his Mistress of Whisperers.

Despite accepting, Myrielle felt betrayed by Gendry's love for Arya Stark, and following the outbreak of the War of the Narrow Sea, she secretly began working with the Second Triarchy to sabotage Gendry's war effort. After turning Gendry against his brother Edric, she briefly replaced him as Hand of the King and resumed her romance with Gendry, until her treason was outed by Edric. Myrielle and her co-conspirators launched an failed coup in a last-ditch effort to seize power in King's Landing, during which Myrielle was killed after being stabbed in the neck by Master of Ships Bronn Blackwater.
Prince of Whitehearth

**Prince of Whitehearth** is a title bestowed upon the heir apparent to the Iron Throne.

The title was created in 350 AC by King Robert II Baratheon following the completion of Whitehearth castle in the Crownlands. It was awarded to his eldest child and heir, Prince Steffon Baratheon. Since Steffon, the title has been passed down to the crown princes and princess of the Baratheon dynasty.

The Prince of Whitehearth traditionally moves to Whitehearth once they reach their majority, although the castle's proximity to King's Landing allows it's ruler to make regular and prolonged visits to the capital should they need or desire. In the absence of a titular ruler, the castle is ruled by castellan.

The Prince of Whitehearth commands vassalage over Whitehearth's shadow town and a number of other nearby settlements. The princedom is notably far less powerful than the defunct princedom of Dragonstone, and is often regarded as a symbolic title rather than a significant fief.

The **Battle in the Tourney Grounds** was a major battle during the War of the Narrow Sea, taking place just outside the city of King's Landing, the seat of House Baratheon of King's Landing and the capital of the Seven Kingdoms.

## History

### Prelude

Following the initial outbreak of the war, outside of King's Landing and Storm's End, the response to the Eastern Coalition's invasion of Westeros was underwhelming. With the horrors of the Great War still fresh in the minds of many, few could find reason or will to fight in yet another war. Nonetheless, a northern coalition of Great Houses closely allied with the Baratheons and each other; Houses Stark, Tully, Arryn and Lannister, began assembling men in the Riverlands.

While the response from their vassals was initially muted, with many outright refusing to join the war, this soon changed following the Battle of Storm's End, where Queen Arya Stark was captured by Euron Greyjoy. Arya was beloved by many, particularly in the North and the Riverlands, and her captivity prompted a great increase in support for the war, greatly swelling the size of the host gathering in the Riverlands.

Meanwhile, the forces of Asaro Trellos and that of Euron Greyjoy had linked up just west of King's Landing. The duo intended to attack the capital, ostensibly to install Naerys Blackfyre on the Iron Throne. As the Coalition army approached the city, King Gendry Baratheon prepared for a protracted siege, however, preparations were interrupted by the covert arrival of Sansa Stark, the Lady of Winterfell and sister of the recently killed Queen Arya Stark. She stated that their assembled force were marching hard down the Kingsroad, and intended to attack that night.

### The battle

While the Baratheons maintained a facade of siege preparations, Gendry and Edric Baratheon prepared their men to attack, hoping to mask the arrival of the fast approaching relief force from the north.

The battle took place primarily in the great tourney grounds just outside of the city. Baratheon forces were engaged in combat for nearly two hours before the arrival of the van from the north, led by Ser Jaime Lannister. The relief force caught the Coalition forces massively off-guard, and the army was soon shattered and routed. Edric Baratheon cornered Asaro Trellos, eventually disarming him and taking him captive.

### Aftermath

Euron Greyjoy successfully fled the battle, alongside Naerys Blackfyre, but plotted to free Asaro Trellos from captivity before arranging their escape.

**Gendry Baratheon**: "*You always have some clever shit to say, don't you Edric? Some retort. Some joke. You truly are the worst bastard the Gods ever put on this world.*"
**Edric Baratheon**: "*Then what does that make you, Bastard King?*"
— Edric Baratheon and Gendry Baratheon, shortly before their duel

The **Duel on Dragonstone** was an event during the War of the Narrow Sea, taking place in and around the ruined castle of Dragonstone.

## History

### Prelude

Following his wrecking on Dragonstone after his escape from Myr, Edric Baratheon attached messages to several ravens around the island, hoping they would be found by someone when the ravens returned to the mainland. His plan worked, and King Gendry Baratheon eventually received word that Edric had washed up on Dragonstone. Gendry, intent on killing Edric for his apparent betrayal, travelled to Dragonstone confront his brother.

Some time before Gendry's arrival, Edric encountered Drogon nesting within the island's volcanic interior. Significantly larger than he had been during the Great War, the estranged dragon soon departed eastward upon noticing Edric's prescence.

### Duel

The brothers Gendry and Edric confronted each other and dueled in the castle of Dragonstone, which had laid in ruins since it's destruction during the Battle of Dragonstone during the Great War. Gendry wielded his father's warhammer, while Edric wielded Blackfyre and Arya Stark's Valyrian steel dagger.

Throughout their duel, Edric attempted to disarm and reason with Gendry. Eventually, Gendry was forced to yield, and Edric was able convince him of the Eastern Coalition's ulterior plots against the Seven Kingdoms, which him and Devan Seaworth had learned of during their imprisonment in Myr.

### Aftermath

The two were ultimately able to reconcile, setting the stage for the Attempted Coup in King's Landing.
Retaking of the Iron Islands

Factions| * House Greyjoy(under Yara)
	+ House Harlaw(originally pro-Euron)

The **retaking of the Iron Islands** was a brief campaign led by Yara Greyjoy which successfully captured the Iron Islands from forces loyal to Euron Greyjoy.

## History

### Prelude

Yara Greyjoy and her brother Theon were forced to flee the Iron Islands when their uncle Euron Greyjoy murdered their father and won the Salt Throne, but they were able to steal the best ships of the Iron Fleet and beat Euron to Meereen, where they made a pact with Daenerys Targaryen leading into her invasion of Westeros. As a result, Euron travelled to King's Landing and allied with Cersei Lannister, the new Queen of the Seven Kingdoms. Euron went on to smash his niece and nephew's fleet and captured Yara, though Theon was able to escape by jumping overboard.

After rallying the remaining ironborn loyal to Yara at Dragonstone, Theon rescued his sister while their uncle was in the Red Keep with Cersei. Yara decided to use the three ships and ironborn still at her command to take the Iron Islands back from her uncle in Queen Daenerys's name. With Yara's permission, Theon took a small portion of this force north to fight and ultimately die for the Starks at the Fall of Winterfell against the White Walkers.

### Retaking the Iron Islands

The offensive was relatively bloodless and significantly one-sided in favour of Yara, as almost the entirety of Euron's Iron Fleet was in Blackwater Bay to help Queen Cersei Lannister defend the capital from Daenerys Targaryen. Several houses, including House Harlaw, even went over to support Yara's conquest of the archipelago.

### Aftermath

After learning of the death of her brother Theon during the Fall of Winterfell, Yara left Pyke to join the fight against the Army of the Dead, participating in and ultimately perishing in the Battle of King's Landing. Since Euron had fled across the Narrow Sea following the prior Battle of Dragonstone, the Iron Islands were once again left with no clear leader and thus fell into turmoil, only being resolved a year later during the Occupation of the Iron Islands, after King Gendry Baratheon installed Rodrik Harlaw as Lord of the Iron Islands.

Gang of Five

*This page is about the five conspirators that sought to undermine King Gendry I Baratheon during the War of the Narrow Sea. For the five claimants that sought the Iron Throne during the Bloodless War, see: Five Pretenders*
The **Gang of Five** refers to the cabal of spies and conspirators in King's Landing that sought to undermine the rule of King Gendry Baratheon in support of the Eastern Coalition during the War of the Narrow Sea. They ultimately led a failed coup in the capital that brought upon them their downfall.

The five people in question were:

* Lady Myrielle, the Mistress of Whisperers, and effective leader of the conspirators. She was taken out by the Master of Ships, Lord Bronn Blackwater, during the coup.
* Lord Desmond Crakehall, Lord of Crakehall. He was captured alive and sent to the newly-formed Stepstones Guard following the conclusion of the war.
* Lady Ynys Yronwood, Lady of Yronwood. She was captured alive and stripped of her lands and titles.
* Ser Arys Oakheart of the Kingsguard. During the coup, he killed Ser Balon Swann, before being himself slain by Brienne of Tarth.
* Commander Humfrey Waters, Commander of the City Watch of King's Landing. He was killed in the streets of King's Landing by loyalist goldcloaks led by Lord Edric Baratheon.
Dornish Civil War

### Outcome

**Martell victory*** Prince Manfrey Martell seizes power across Dorne on behalf of his niece, Princess Arianne Martell
* Dispersed revolts in support of the Sand Snakes crushed
* Execution of Ellaria Sand

Factions| * House Martell
* **Iron Throne**/House Baratheon of King's Landing(late stage)
	+ Sand Snake loyalists

"*Ellaria Sand murdered her prince and his son. Her fanatics condemned thousands more Dornishmen to the dirt. She is no daughter of Dorne. She is a traitor and a murderer.*"
―Prince Manfrey Martell describes the Dornish Civil War to King Gendry I Baratheon
The **Dornish Civil War** was a brief and sporadic civil war that broke out after Prince Manfrey Martell declared himself Prince Regent of Dorne, to his niece and the de jure Princess of Dorne, Arianne Martell.

## History

### Prelude

Dorne had been ruled by House Martell since Nymeria's War, but in the midst of the War of the Five Kings, Ellaria Sand, the leader of the hard-line Sand Snakes and former paramour of Oberyn Martell, staged a coup, killing Doran Martell, the Prince of Dorne, and his son and heir, Trystane Martell. Doran's second child, Arianne Martell, became the de-jure Princess of Dorne following the coup, although both she and her uncle, Manfrey Martell, were confined to Sunspear, while Ellaria Sand ruled Dorne as it's de-facto ruler.

### War

Moving against the Sand Snakes following the Assault on the Targaryen Fleet, which saw Ellaria Sand taken captive by Euron Greyjoy. Prince Manfrey's actions were widely supported as the Sand Snakes had become vastly unpopular, but nonetheless, numerous and constant skirmishes in support of Ellaria Sand broke out across Dorne, occasionally resulting in large scale battles.

The Sand Snakes were generally kept in check by Martell forces, until the movement petered out the following year, after it became apparent that Ellaria Sand had been likely been killed in Cersei Lannister's custody.

In fact, Ellaria Sand had been forcefully kept alive on the orders of Cersei Lannister, forced to watch her daughter Tyene Sand die and decompose before her eyes. Ellaria survived the Battle of King's Landing, but was kept imprisoned on the orders of Gendry Baratheon for the murder of his "sister" Myrcella Baratheon.

When Prince Manfrey arrived to parlay in King's Landing, he demanded the immediate execution of Ellaria. Gendry obliged, but on the advice of Tyrion Lannister, insisted on executing Ellaria himself. With Ellaria's death, the Dornish Civil War was brought to a final, symbolic end.

### Aftermath

Dorne narrowly avoided invasion by the White Walkers during the Great War, being the only region of Westeros to avoid any incursion by the Army of the Dead. The heroics of the living, combined with Ellaria's prompt execution, led Manfrey to agree to bend the knee to the new regime in King's Landing, permitting Dorne to remain in the Seven Kingdoms.

* Robert I Baratheon, the seventeen ruler of the Seven Kingdoms
* Robert II Baratheon, called "Robert the Elder", the twenty-third ruler of the Seven Kingdoms

Abductions on the High Road

### Outcome

* Prince Raymont Baratheon and his immediate family are all taken captive by the mountain clansmen
* Queen Emylia Bracken takes command of the rescue mission

Factions| * **Iron Throne**/House Baratheon of King's Landing
	+ Kingsguard

Casualties| **Heavy*** Prince Raymont Baratheon (POW)
* Lady Valaena Velaryon (POW)
* Prince Royce Baratheon (POW)
* Princess Tyana Baratheon (POW)

The **abductions on the High Road** were the opening event of the Bloodless War, taking place on the High Road, a major road of Westeros located within the Vale of Arryn.

## History

### Prelude

As King Robert II Baratheon and Prince of Whitehearth Steffon Baratheon were aging, Steffon's eldest son, Prince Raymont Baratheon, had taken over much of the day-to-day duties of running the Seven Kingdoms. As such, he and his wife, Lady Valaena Velaryon, and his two children, Prince Royce Baratheon and Princess Tyana Baratheon, were ultimately chosen to perform a royal progress of the realm in their stead.

After several months, the group reached Riverrun, spending several days at the seat of House Tully before departing eastward for the Eyrie, the seat of House Arryn. The entourage passed the crossroads without issue, before taking the High Road towards the Bloody Gate.

### Ambush and abductions

Barely a day's ride from the Bloody Gate, the group were attacked at night by an organised band of mountain clansmen. Taken completely off guard, the Baratheon's guards and protectors were unable to stop Prince Raymont, Lady Valaena, Prince Royce and Princess Tyana from all being taken captive. With their hostages secured, the mountain clansmen soon melted away back into the Mountains of the Moon.

### Aftermath

Lord Commander of the Kingsguard Brandon Manderly led a fruitless search effort, whilst his fellow men raced for the Bloody Gate to send word of what happened. Once word had reached King's Landing, King Robert II Baratheon instructed Queen Emylia Bracken, who was relatively nearby at Stone Hedge, to travel to the High Road to lead the campaign to rescue the princes and princess.

Following the trials in King's Landing, it became apparent to some that Queen Emylia herself may have orchestrated the abductions on the High Road and subsequent Battle in the Mountains, with her liaising with the mountain clansmen prior to the abductions.
Oathkeeper

**Oathkeeper** is a Valyrian steel sword that serves as the ancestral weapon of House Tarth. It was one of the two swords reforged from Ice on the orders of Tywin Lannister. Its sister blade is Widow's Wail, the ancestral blade of House Lannister.

Tywin initially wished for the sword to go to his son, Jaime, but Jaime instead offered it to Brienne of Tarth, tasking her with using the blade to track down and safeguard Sansa Stark. The sword has been in the continual possession of House Tarth ever since.

Sam Snow

"*He's not my child, Maester Aemon. She's one of Craster's wives.*"
―Samwell Tarly explaining Sam's lineage to Maester Aemon
**Sam Snow**, affectionately known as **Little Sam**, was one of the last children sired by Craster and the eldest son of Gilly, one of Craster's many daughter-wives, as well as the older half-brother of Jon Tarly.

He was born shortly before the Mutiny at Craster's Keep, where he fled alongside his mother and Samwell Tarly, a brother of the Night's Watch, escaping a fate of being sacrificed by his father to the White Walkers. Sam was named for Samwell, who eventually became Sam's adoptive father. The three eventually reached the Wall, where he and his mother were granted refuge at Castle Black. Following the death of Maester Aemon, Sam accompanied his mother and Samwell Tarly to Oldtown so Samwell could train at the Citadel, and later travelled with his family during the Great War.

Following the Great War, Samwell Tarly was released from his Night's Watch vows and granted the vacant castle of Highgarden. Gilly married Samwell, and the two had a son together, Jon Tarly. Sam was given a southron upbringing and raised before the Old Gods and the New.

Samwell had initially told his family that Sam was his own bastard son, but later claimed that Sam's father was an unidentified Northern lord, as to not lay open Samwell's oathbreaking as a brother of the Night's Watch, whilst still concealing Sam's incestuous conception.
