Prologue : The Iron Islands
The Iron Islands
Just as the Vale, the Iron Isles are surprisingly seclusives since Aegon and Daenerys's return.
Maybe because there had never happened good things for them when they drove Targaryen attention...
And indeed, his reintegration to the Iron Throne was brutal. All in all, Euron Greyjoy only ruled for 10 years after evicted Asha and Theon Greyjoy before Targaryens's dragons were seen roaming the islands.
He shall find death by the hand of Grey Worm during a coastal battle in the Isles, before his killer found his own death two months later by Quellon Humble, another Ironborn.
His son Quellon, who was a far lesser good leader, quickly bent the knee to Aegon.
If his reign was quite unremarkable on himself, his kin counterbalanced it.
It was during his reign that Asha shall die, putting a end to her sad life of Ironborn's courtier's wife in 8340.
Theon, who had been sent to the Wall by Euron shall be killed in 8302 by the White Walker chief in an heroic attempt to restore his image in the eyes of Jon Snow.
Quellon's half-sister Brella was way more ambitious and bold than himself. Maybe too much, as she attempted to raid King's Landing in 8357, only to finish in the maws of Sonax.
In 8370, with Quellon's only son on the throne, the Iron Islands took a whole new direction.
Thanks to his marriage to Rhaena Targaryen, an Aelyx's daughter, the Greyjoys became allies of the Targaryens. However, Westeros discovered that the one who shall soon be called "the Bloody" had a true love for plots and murders.
Quickly, the Iron Islands became a land of assassinations and kidnappings. Slaves and salt wives were more commons than ever, despite lacks of raiding.
Somehow, thanks to kindly surveillance from her powerful brother king Aegon VII, Rhaena manages to dodges all this plots and survives during 12 nightmarish years, before Euron finally get murdered by an even more ruthless Ironborn.
But since, the Greyjoys are seen as dishonourables to say the least, and have an equal reputation than the Freys in Walter's days.
Today, it's his stubborn son that is ruling the Islands. He showed to be an average Lord Paramount, but manages with an incredible constancy to be rude toward the Iron Throne.
Worst, he is actually planning to murder a Targaryen's uncle of the actual king.
As Hagon and Orys nearly hate each other, things can get out quickly and dragons visit once more the Iron Islands...
