The **Attack at Rillwater Crossing** is a fight that takes place in 301 AL between members of House Glenmore and House Whitehill, when a discussion goes awry.

## History

### Prelude

When House Glenmore welcomes Talia Forrester and Royland Degore into Rillwater Crossing, Lord Glenmore's firstborn son, Namond, is not convinced it is the best move and discusses the matter with his father. They eventually settle on having the Forresters turned in to House Whitehill and invite Lord Torrhen Whitehill to their keep for a transfer. Talia and Royland are detained in the cells for the time being.

When Torrhen arrives, he is quick to jab at the Glenmores and threaten them, which angers Namond and causes him to draw his sword on the Lord.

### The Fight

Two Elite Glenmore guards restrain Torrhen, who acts like he's defeated before winking at one of his own guards, Alanna Snow. The woman fires a bolt at one of the Elite Guards, killing him and making him lose his grip on Torrhen. As the man falls, Torrhen reaches for his sword and uses it to kill the other guard.

A third elite Glenmore, Gavyn, looses his bow at Alanna, but the arrow is blocked by another of Torrhen's guard, Brandon. Torrhen and Lord Errol Glenmore then begin to duel.

As Talia and Royland watch the chaos, Derrock Crowl senses an opportunity and attempts to attack Talia, but Royland alerts her and headbutts Derrock so hard that he is knocked out.

Torrhen kicks Lord Glenmore in the stomach, knocking him back, but Namond tackles Torrhen to the ground. They both hit the ground, and Torrhen slams Namond's head into the floorboards before climbing onto his chest and punching his face. Alanna Snow fires her crossbow again, hitting Lord Glenmore inches above his heart.

Talia Forrester frees herself from her bonds with a discarded sword and attempts to help Lord Glenmore, but Brandon halts her and knocks her out. While Talia is unconscious, Namond's ear is torn off by Torrhen Whitehill and Lord Errol falls into a coma. Royland Degore frees himself of his bonds and takes on Torrhen and his Elite Guards, succeeding in breaking Arys Mount's arm, but is beaten to the point of unconsciousness by the guards afterwards.

Once the soldiers are dealt with, the Whitehills chase Lady Syrena Glenmore and her two daughters, Kyra and Lyarra, through Rillwater Crossing. Syrena seemingly avoids any injury, but Lyarra is given a black eye. Kyra takes refuge in her Uncle Edmure's study, but Boros Warrick and Brandon catch up. Boros hits Kyra, prompting Edmure to cut his cheek open from the corner of his mouth using a letter opener.

### Aftermath

Following the attack, Torrhen and his guard leave with Talia Forrester, Royland Degore and Derrock Crowl captive. Namond Glenmore awakes from a coma after three days, while his father Errol remained in one. Lady Syrena Glenmore was styled as Regent after sending Namond, his uncle, and three sisters to the seat of House Greyson out of fear of another Whitehill attack.
