[TWR97]

HAH! Samwell certainly has a better fate here compared to potentially dying on the Wall or getting caught in Euron Greyjoy's Oldtown invasion in OTL ASOIAF. Grew a spine too if those marital adventures are to go by. Did he still end up as friends with Jon btw?

 

[Thaiga]

Are there any exotic houses or marriages, which can lead to exotic dynasty in Westeros?

Not that much. There are the Darkharts with their Naathi looks, lots of Stricklands sporting white hair, the summer-islander-looking Otheryses... One Mooton girl is married to a YiTish man, but they don't have any children yet and she is unlikely to inherit and come back to Westeros anyway. Some eastern-looking kiddos are popping up here in there when their fathers marry themselves some court bards from the East as their (usually) second wives, but not that much. There are some interesting combinations in the East (the dothraki are silver-haired and the Emperor if Yi Ti is a westernman-looking chad, for example), but I will cover them later

Cadet Branches?

Not that much ether. It seems that the AI grabs the bastards for their daughters like freshly baked pies. There were some insignificant pairings that produced a couple of Juststones or Wrothwaters, but they tend to drop like flies and die out. One canon cadet branch is doing pretty well for themselves, also the three descendants of an unruly Targ daughter see a lot of action, but they are all in the East too and I will get to them in due time.

HAH! Samwell certainly has a better fate here compared to potentially dying on the Wall or getting caught in Euron Greyjoy's Oldtown invasion in OTL ASOIAF. Grew a spine too if those marital adventures are to go by. Did he still end up as friends with Jon btw?

He managed to become a knight despite his (somewhat canonic) cowardice and abysmal fighting skills. I think that's where the arbitrary trait came from XD
They were friends, actually! Jon became fast friends with Willas and Willas befriended Sam. When I checked on Jon at different times, he was friends with both Willas and Sam and also all his Stark cousins, including both girls and their husbands, and also Tyrion, Lord Guy of Hayford, and the King Beyound the Wall (and then a whole bunch of randos from around the planetos, but that's not that interesting). My man's been busy.

Silver Eagles that Guard the Sea​

In the years following the Restoration, House Mallister fell on hard times. Lord Jason’s only son and heir, Ser Patreck, tragically died without issue at the age of just three-and-twenty. His grieving father followed his beloved son four years later.

Lord Jason’s oldest daughter, Lady Sarya, was married off to the Lord of the newly-formed Martlet Bay.

So it was the Warrior’s younger daughter, the Black Lady Minisa, who succeeded her father as the Lady of Seagard. She was married to a knight of Frey’s, but due to his lesser standing all their children were regarded as part of the Mallister family instead.

The pair had four daughters and one living son.
Lady Minisa provided the land for all of her daughters except one, a cruel jest from a cruel woman towards her least favorite child.

The oldest, Lady Hostella, got herself the biggest slice of the pie - the Cape of Eagles. She then managed to repel an unauthorized ironborn raid on her lands. One of the reavers named Sigfry Pyke, bastard of Stonetree, was wounded and captured alive. His father was not keen on paying the ransom, so it seemed that Sigfry would leave the Cape’s dungeon straight to the gallows. But to everyone’s surprise he left it for the Lady’s bedchamber. It is hard to imagine more opposite people than the kind, brave and honorable Lady Hostella and short-tempered and fickle-minded coward Sigfry, but they actually were very much in love and produced four healthy children whom they both utterly adored. Ever since Lady Hostella’s unfortunate and untimely death at the age of eight-and-thirty, Sigfry has been drowning his sorrow in any bottle he could get his hands on.

All of the pair’s daughters are married into respectable families throughout the Realm.

Their only son, Lord Perwyn, is the current Lord of Cape of Eagles. He is married to Lady Barbara of House Haigh.

Lord Perwyn’s aunt, late Lady Hostella’s sister, was granted a castle of Seawatch. She is married to Ser Quincy Waters, bastard of Mallery.

All of their children are married to the members of other respectable Houses.

Another daughter of the Black Lady Minisa, Lady Orissa, was given a castle of Rawmarsh. She is married to Ser Walder, bastard of Grell, although it is widely believed that Lady Orissa would’ve very much preferred to have another Lady as her consort.

Both children from the Rawmarsh branch are in proper marriages.

Lady Minisa’s last child and the only daughter to be left without a fief to call her own is lady Wynafrey. Poor woman has been born with her feet disfigured and unsightly, an unfortunate trait that gained her the mocking nickname of the Vulture. Despite that she is married to Ser Edmund, a knight of House Grafton. It is a tender and loving marriage (Ser Edmund even killed his own distant kinsman in a duel after the latter dared to disrespect his wife), but it is yet to produce any offspring.

After Lady Minisa’s death her only son, Lord Clarence, became the Lord of Seagard. He was married to Lady Janeya of House Vance (of Wayfarer’s Rest) and had six legitimate children by her.

Before those six however he had a bastard born to a merchant’s daughter. The child, a beautiful girl named Ryella, later married an heir to the Twins, but he died at the age of just eight-and-ten leaving it up to poor lady Ryella to raise their only son and a new heir of Frey. Not long ago lady Ryella remarried to Ser Karyl, a knight of House Chambers.

Lord Clarence’s legitimate daughters are both married outside of the Riverlands.

His two younger sons also found their spouses beyond their native region.

Lord Malwyn, Lord Clarence’s oldest son and successor, is also married to Lady Obyra of House Grafton from the Vale.

Their oldest son Karyl is expected to wed lady Kelarra of House Royce, also from the Vale.

Red Salmon Wise and Strong​

Lord William of House Mooton, Lord of Maidenpool, died a natural death at the age of two-and-sixty.

His oldest daughter, lady Eleanor, was married to Ser Patreck, a knight of House Vance (of Wayfarer’s Rest). The pair had difficulties conceiving a child until their forties and when it seemed like a miracle was finally on it’s way, lady Eleanor’s body gave up under the stress. In hopes of having an offspring Ser Patreck took another wife, an able-bodied lowborn woman named Ceryne, but died without issue. His widow then disappeared and was rumored to be seen in the lands of Omber where she allegedly died at the age of four-and-thirty.

Lord William’s younger daughter, lady Catelyn, was married to Master Alyn of House Blackwood, the Knight of Muddy Hall. She died of grief, unable to bear witness to her husband’s decline from his debilitating illness.

Lord William’s younger son’s tale is an interesting one.

Ser Jon was married to lady Marianne of House Perryn and given a castle of Huggate as his wedding gift. The pair had two sons: Ser Lothar the heir and Ser Luthor the spare.

Ser Lothar was married to lady Olene of House Meadows until her rather mysterious death in the year 339AC, not long after the birth of her stillborn son. It is widely accepted that the father of this child was not her husband, but her husband’s father, Ser Jon, who followed in their footsteps and died from a questionable cause just a year later. Ser Lothar remarried soon after that.

Ser Lothar’s daughter by his unfaithful wife ran away from her father and ended up far East, in the lands of Yi Ti, as a second wife to the father of the current Prince of Piqui.

Ser Luthor the spare also left along with his niece and ended up in service of the famous Queen Corianne of Trader Town (will definitely be covered in future Chapters). A woman named Leana showed up at Maunhill claiming to be Ser Luthor’s lawfully wed wife and the mother of his two daughters. The woman is ravaged by brothel sickness and some other kind of rot of the flesh as well, so her claim seems doubtful at best.

Ser Luthor does actually have two daughters though. His eldest, lady Marianne, is freshly married to young lord Lucas of House Frey, the heir to The Crossing.

Even though Lord William’s younger son is much more entertaining, we can not ignore his elder. Lord Myles succeeded his father as Lord of Maidenpool in the year 326C. He was married to Lady Zia of House Frey.

Their oldest daughter, Lady Edmaria, is married to Lord Lucamore of House Buckwell, Lord of Antlers. Despite Lady Edmaria’s unfortunate facial features, the marriage is one of love and mutual respect.

Second daughter, lady Jonquil, is married to a man of House Shett.

The third daughter, Lady Mellara, is married to Lord Ormund of House Whitehead, Lord of Weeping Town, as his second wife.

Lord Myles’ only son, Lord Davos, succeeded his father as the Lord of Maidenpool in the year 332AC. He was married to lady Eldera of House Blount. They managed to produce a son before Lord Davos’ mysterious death at the age of just six-and-ten, just two years into his lordship. Lady Eldera later remarried to Ser Mychel, a knight of House Redfort. After his death she came back to Maidenpool and settled alongside her only child.

Lord Donnel is the current Lord of Maidenpool. He is married to Lady Karene of House Waynwood. Both parents seem to be feverishly overprotective of their two sons, especially their oldest, who is currently being hidden in an undisclosed location.

Pink Maiden, Brave and Beautiful​

Lord Clement of House Piper, the first of his name, Lord of Acorn’s Ridge, died from overexerting himself (and probably overindulging) in the year 301AC at the age of seven-and-forty.

His youngest son, Ser Robin, was granted a castle of Muddleshaw.

Both of his daughters married some lowborn hedgeknights.

His only son, Ser Donnel, is the current master of Muddleshaw. He is married to lady Eldrane of House Strickland.

Lord Clement’s second son, Ser Lewys, was granted a castle of Brockhall. After his older brother’s death, he married his brother’s widow, Lady Catelyn of House Bracken.

Their daughter was married to Lord Lymond of House Tully.

Their son, Ser Amos, is married to his niece, Lady Roslin, the heir to Acorn’s Ridge.

Their oldest son, Ser Lewys, is married to Lady Osmerei of House Royce.

Lord Clement was succeeded by his oldest son, Lord Marq. He was married to Lady Catelyn of House Bracken until his rather embarrassing death from a self-sustained wound in a trial by combat (he literally stabbed himself through the eye). Lady Catelyn remarried to Lord Marq’s younger brother, Ser Lewys.

In her youth lady Lysa, Lord Marq’s daughter, eloped with Ser Kenric, a knight of House Karlton, but they were caught by her brother and Ser Kenric died in an ensuing duel. Lady Lysa was already pregnant though, so their son was later given his own castle as a gesture of peace. Lady Lysa then remarried to Lord Hoster of House Grey. Their daughter is the current Lady of Stoney Sept.

The Gallant Lord Clement, the second of his name, is the current Lord of Acorn’s Ridge. He is married to Lady Serra of House Tully. They have five legitimate daughters together.

Lady Roslin is the current heir. She is married to her uncle, Ser Amos of Brockhall.

All other daughters are married into respectable Houses of varying prominence.

Lord Clement also has a daughter born out of wedlock. Young Lady Dianessa Rivers was born to lady Alysanne, Lord Clement’s very distant kinswoman. Lady Alysanne is married to Ser Jammon, another distant member of House Piper. It would seem that this unusual happenstance was consensual and agreed upon by all the affected parties as Lord Clement’s last attempt for a son.

Matter of Colour​

The Greens​

Lord Norbert of House Vance, Lord of Atranta, had five sons. His youngest, Jon, became a maester. His fourth, Ser Kirth the Clumsy, was so ravaged by gout that he never married and died without issue.

The third son, Ser Ellery, was married to lady Walda Rivers from the Crossing. After Ser Ellery’s execution she remarried to the Lord of Glitterdell as his second wife.

Ser Ellery’s daughter Tysane was married to Ser Jonald of House Hasty but was executed after it was discovered that her son was actually born a bastard. Ser Jonald later remarried.

Ser Ellery’s son, Ser Symond, was married to lady Bellena of House Roote. After Ser Symond’s death at the age of eight-and-twenty, lady Bellena took a man named Dagmer as her consort, a lowborn ironborn with an unknown parentage who previously already was a consort to an ironborn woman, Meredyth of House Towney, who was executed by the Queen herself for her attempt to murder her brother’s children.

Ser Symond’s only child, his daughter Hanna, is married to a northman knight of House Wells.

Lord Norbert’s second son, Ser Hugo, died from brothel sickness at the age of seven-and-fifty.

His daughters were married into respectable Houses (a scroll depicting his second daughter seems to be missing, your humble author begs your forgiveness and vows to scold an acolyte responsible for it).

Ser Hugo’s son, Ser Norbert, was also executed for trying to continue the nonsense his uncle Ser Ellery stirred. His widow Aleona of House Buckwell did not remarry and remains at Atranta with their daughter Wenella and son-in-law, Ser Karyl.

Lord Ronald the Bad, Lord Norbert’s oldest son, succeeded his father as Lord of Atranta in the year 303AC. Information on his first wife seems missing, but his second wife was a woman from House Fell. After Lord Ronald’s death she remarried to Ser Tancred of House Swygert only to later have an affair with Ser Tancred’s kinsman and liege that resulted in Ser Tancred’s violent outburst towards his offender and subsequent exile to the Westwatch-by-the-Bridge.

Lord Ronald’s both daughters married into respectable Houses.

His youngest son, Ser Gaston, was briefly married to the daughter of a temporary holder of the Cape of Eagles. They had a son together before Ser Gaston found out that there are, in fact, people who are more slick than Gaston and more quick than Gaston with a neck that’s a whole lot more thick than Gaston. He died in a tourney at the age of just three-and-twenty.

His son, Ser Willem, is married to Lady Helicent of House Fossoway (the green batch).

Lord Roland’s second son Petyr was married to lady Alys of House Varner. After their daughter’s tragic death a month after her wedding, he was arrested for attacking the groom-to-be in retaliation and sent to the Westwatch-by-the-Bridge. His wife later remarried.

Lord Roland’s eldest son, Lord Jeffory, succeeded his father as Lord of Atranta in the year 323AC. He was married to Lady Elyn of House Lowther.

All of their daughters are married into respectable Houses.

Lord Jeffory’s only son, poor Lord Otho, is the current Lord of Atrant. He is married to Lady Rosalind of House Just who often has to step into the regent’s role when her husband’s fits of madness become too much for him to handle. The pair’s oldest son, Ser Jeffory, is married to lady Maegelle of a minor house Albanese.

The Blacks​

Lord Lucas of House Vance, Lord of Wayfarer’s Rest, was married twice. His first wife is lost to history, but his second wife was lady Cersei of House Broom, already a widow at the time of their marriage.

His only daughter, Lady Saranna, was married thrice. Her first husband and the father of her four children was Ser Elmer of House Lorch. After his tragic death she remarried to Lord Tywin of House Kenning, Lord of Kayce, as his fourth or fifth wife. After his death she came back home to Wayfarer’s Rest and quietly married Ser Raynard, a lowborn hedgeknight.

Lady Saranna’s second husband, Lord Tywin, the second of his name, was a peculiar fellow. For his love of one-on-one duels, especially the hand–to-hand one involving wrestling, and his habit to caress his opponent’s sore spots after their duels he became known as the Softharted Duelist.

He also was married four or five times, depending on one’s opinion on his third liaison.

His first wife, lady Orielle of House Payne, had an affair with another man. Lord Tywin, ever the softie, just petitioned for the annulment of their marriage and did not pursue any other retribution against either parties.

His second wife was Lady Rhonda of House Hewett. She died in the year 324AC under very questionable circumstances shortly after the arrival of a mysterious woman named Sharis who claimed to speak for the Valyrian gods of old and promised to give Lord Tywin a son.

The pair lived as husband and wife for some time, but failing to fulfill her “prophecy” “lady” Sharis was quietly disposed of two years later.

Next came Lady Alerie of House Hunt, but she died without issue from malignant ulcers.

And then it was Saranna’s turn, Lord Tywin’s final wife and widow.

Lady Saranna’s brother, Ser Jon, Lord Lucas’s second son, died in his bed in the year 327AC.

His younger son, Ser Samwell, is married to lady Gwenda of House Templeton. Their only son, Ser Wendel, is an acolyte here at the Citadel, well on his way to becoming a fellow maester.

Lord Jon’s elder son, Harys, was a master of Brookfoot castle before his exile, and his marriage life seems to be cursed. His first wife, Rosamund of House Darke, died shortly after their wedding from an unfortunate encounter with a stray dog she tried to bring inside. His second wife, Rowena of House Egen, was executed by Harys’ kinsman and liege for her plot to install Harys as Lord of Wayfarer’s Rest. Harys himself was exiled and his castle confiscated. He and his son Ser Jaime came to the court of Lord Roland of Runestone where Harys married Lythene, a lowborn woman he met along the way. She bore him his second son and then ran away with his first.

Ser Jaime is technically married to a lowborn woman named Serra that came with him and his father to Runestone. They have two children together. None of that stopped Ser Jaime, a known lecher and hedonist, from getting involved in an inappropriate relationship with his step-mother and fleeing with her to Lorath.

His daughter by Serra tries to distance herself from the family drama. She married Ser Raymond of House Erenford and hastily left for her husband’s family domain.

Ser Jaime’s brother Ser Quenton, Harys’ son by Lythene, also fled from the scandal. He is serving as a sellsword with The Maiden’s Men. Rumor has it that he recently married a pretty dothraki girl, a descendant of a legendary horselord, and that she is a follower of the Old Gods. People come up with the wildest of tales!

But let us leave the wive’s tales behind for now and have a look at Lord Lucas’s successor, his firstborn Lord Karyl, the first of his name. He was married to an unknown woman and maintained a long and open relationship with Lady Alysanne of House Bracken. He married Lady Alysanne as soon as he could. He also petitioned the Crown to have all of their children legitimized, which was granted.

All of Lord Karyl’s daughters from both of his marriages married into respectable houses.

His younger son, Ser Kermit, is technically married to lady Yolanda of House Grafton, but after she was found to be suffering from a brothel disease Ser Kermit left his home out of shame and humiliation and is now serving as a sellsword with the Second Sons. Their marriage is no more than a formality maintained out of respect to their son, Ser Tommen, who is deeply hurt by the whole situation and tends to hide from the world in his rooms.

Lord Karyl’s older son, Lord Jammos, succeeded him in the year 329AC. He was married to Lady Vanera of House Caswell.

Their only daughter, Lady Carellen, is married to Ser Gerold of House Barbrand.

Their youngest son, Ser Benedict, is married to lady Melara of House Lorch. He has been drowning his mind in all sorts of wine ever since the tragic death of his son.

The third son, Ser Petyr, is married to lady Leonella of House Moreland.

Lord Jammos was succeeded by his oldest son, Lord Karyl, the second of his name, in the year 350AC, but the new Lord died childless just five years later. His widow, Lady Walda of House Tully, remarried to the Lord of Stillfren, as his second wife.

The current Lord of Wayfarer’s Rest is Lord Edmure, Lord Jammos’ second son. He is married to Lady Liane of House Bracken and is assisted in all manners of governance by his twin brother, Ser Petyr.

The White Hill Ever Higher​

In the year 309AC Lord Ludd of House Whitehill, Lord of Highpoint, was finally sent to stand trial before The Seven. His second wife, Lady Arya of House Karstark, quietly lived her days at the court of her stepsons.

Lord Ludd’s only daughter’s turbulent romance was already covered in the previous Chapter on House Forrester.

His youngest son Gryff was married to lady Larra of House Branch, already a widow at the time of their wedding. After her death he took a common girl to warm his bed. She later claimed that they were married before the weirwood tree, but the fact that Gryff was a follower of the Seven makes it a very dubious claim.

Gryff’s only living son, Ser Owen, was married to lady Alanna of House Overton before his exile from his home for embezzlement from his lord and patriarch. His former wife became afflicted by the dreaded Greyscale and died from it after a brief and futile struggle.

Their only son, Ser Warrick, is married to his kinswoman, lady Donella.

Their only daughter Gilliane is married to Ser Whalen of House Darry, heir to the castle of Riverbend all the way south.

Lord Ludd’s third-born son Torrhen was married to a common girl whose name is missing from the archives.

Their only son, Ser Rodrick, was briefly married to lady Donella of House Ashwood, but unfortunately he died from an acute food poisoning at the age of just three-and-twenty. His widow never remarried and remains at Highpoint with her children.

Their daughter, who is also named Donella, is the one that married her hinsman.

Her brother Alaric is married to a common woman named Barbrey.

Their son Roderick recently married young lady Kerena of House Glenmore. Curiously enough, they actually were sworn to each other under the watchful eyes of the weirwood tree as young Roderick seems to follow the Old Gods of the North rather than the Seven like the rest of his relatives.

Lord Ludd’s second-born son Ebbert studied at the Citadel, became a maester and later the Archmaester under the guidance of your humble author’s predecessor, Archmaester Wylis.

Lord Ludd’s first-born son Ser Karl succeeded his father as Lord of Highpoint. The name of his wife was unfortunately also lost.

The marriage of his daughter lady Mariah and Lord Hother of House Forrester of Ironrath was supposed to mend the rivalry between their houses, but unfortunately it did not go as planned. Poor Lord Hothor is widely believed to be either poisoned or cursed (depending on the level of superstition of the person being asked), but everyone agrees that it must have been done by some Whitehill. After Lord Hothor's inevitable death from one of his many afflictions, his widow was so devastated by her grief that it is also widely accepted that her “fatal meal disagreement” was intentional and self-inflicted.

Lady Jonella, Lord Karl’s other daughter, fares relatively better. She is technically still married to Torrhen of House Moss, but they are long separated and not on speaking terms. Rumor has it that it is due to Torrhen’s volatile temper that he is brave enough to act out only with someone definitively weaker than him.

As Lord Karl’s only son, Lord Lothor naturally succeeded him in the year 326AC. He was married twice. His first wife was Lady Lysa of House Flynt (of Widow’s Watch). After her death in the Grey Plague outbreak Lord Lothor remarried to Lady Bethany of House Grell from the Riverlands, a widow herself at that point.

Lord Lothor’s daughters are married and betrothed into prominent northern houses.

His poor younger son is afflicted by the hare-lip which he hides under a bushy mustache. He is married to lady Lynara of House Mollen. They have a young son.

Lord Roose, Lord Lothor’s first-born son, is the current Lord of Highpoint. Along with his young kinsman Roderick, he is the only other member of House Whitehill to follow the Old Gods. He is married to Lady Cariah of House Elesham from the Vale. Lady Cariah is a widow of late Lord Hother of House Holt and their son Norren is the current Lord of Whitford.

The Flare Mares​

Lord Rodrik of House Ryswell, the second of his name, Lord of The Rills, died at the age of two-and-seventy. A common saying of that time was that Lord Rodrir was just too lazy to die. His second wife, Lady Sarra of an unknown parentage, who was also unnervingly younger than him, took a vow to grieve for her late husband until her dying breath.

Lord Rodrik’s oldest daughter Lady Bethany’s life was covered in the previous Chapter on House Bolton. The story of his second, Lady Barbrey, will be covered later in a subchapter to this one.


So let us have a moment to talk about Lord Rodrik’s youngest daughter, poor lady Lysa. She was married to the late Lord Matthius of House Waterman, Lord of White Firth, until his tragic death in a hunting accident. That loss was quickly followed by the death of their only daughter just three years after.

But fate was not done with this family. Handsome young Lord Benjen, a promising young lad, died at the age of just four-and-ten shortly after being horribly mangled in a freak accident. His younger brother, now Lord Jossart succeeded him only to die himself at the age of just eight-and-ten in a trial by combat against his own kinsman who then fell on his sword and died that same day as well. Lord Jossart’s only living child, a daughter, is the current Lady of White Firth. She is rather understandably paranoid about this whole situation and often hides in her chambers for months and just sits there and eats, an arrangement that resulted in poor Lady’s joints becoming painfully swollen. All that loss and misery understandably drove her grandmother Lysa to a state of pitiful madness and manifested itself in sores all over her body.

But let us now look at late Lord Rodrik’s sons.

His youngest was the first to die. He died about five years into his childless marriage to Lady Bethany of House Dustin. She then remarried to Lord Rodrik’s oldest son and heir, future Lord Rickard the Unworthy and their union will be talked about later in this Chapter.

Lord Rodrik’s second son Roger was married twice, but the name of his first wife is lost and the second one’s claim of a marriage is called into question so we will just skip this whole mess altogether and move on to Roger’s daughters who all married into prominent families with various degrees of success.

And now let us talk about the Lazy Lord’s heir, Lord Rickard the Unworthy who succeeded his father in the year 306AC and sloppily ruled The Rills for sixteen years. He married quite late and when he finally did it was to his own brother’s widow, Lady Bethany of House Dustin. It was rumored that he coveted her for years and finally managed to free her for himself by gifting his brother a new hunting dog that turned out to be rabid and ultimately brought his demise.

Despite their rather questionable start, the pair had three sons together.

Benton, their youngest, was married to lady Sabetha of House Forrester until his death at the age of four-and-forty. His widow never remarried and stays in the Rills with her own son Desmond. He is married to a lowborn woman named Gilliane and has a daughter by her.

Desmond’s sister Silvy is married to Joseth of House Glover as his second wife.

Lord Rickard’s second son Rodrik was married to lady Dacey of House Wull. After his death at the age of seven-and-thirty she came back to her House’s seat in Crow’s Edge to help Lord Benton, her young nephew, with his newfound lordly responsibilities. She also remarried to a lowborn man named Henly who is serving as Lord Benton’s justiciar. The pair has a son who is considered a rightful member of House Wull.

Rodrik and Dacey’s only daughter Wynafryd is married to Ser Mallador of House Tallhart as his second wife and they seem to be an almost perfect match for each other.

Wynafryd’s brother Donald also thought that he had found his soulmate in a pretty lowborn girl named Branna, but for some reason the young couple was absolutely convinced that Donald’s family would not approve so they did what seemed best to their teenage minds - they eloped, fled to White Harbor, snuck on a merchant ship bound for Braavos and ended up in the Braavosi Marshes. It is unclear whether their fears were actually justified or there were some other forces at play, but poor Branna very suspiciously died just two years later. Donald then rather hastily remarried to a braavosi girl named Leresa and had a son by her, but died himself just ten years after his first wife under the circumstances that raised even more questions. His widow Leresa then was left to fend for herself, but her health rapidly deteriorated and she died within a year. Their son Joseth was left an orphan and was essentially raised by the streets where he grew up to consider himself a braavosi and revere the moonsingers.

It became apparent that Donald's family was actually totally unaware of his fate and did not even know about poor little Joseth’s existence prior to this research. The boy has now been found and brought back to The Rills where he is trying to adjust to his new life. He was taken into the household of his uncle Rickard, the late Donald’s older brother, and his wife Sybelle.

Their own son Reynard is all grown up and had recently married lady Lyanne of House Stark (of Stony Shore). Lady Lyanne is already a widow by virtue of being very briefly married to Ser Duncan of House Flint (of the Mountains). That marriage was an attempt to subdue lady Lyanne’s fiery temper but it failed rather miserably when old Ser Duncan died in a drunken accident at their wedding feast. It would seem that Reynard’s gentle nature is proving to be a much more efficient countermeasure than Ser Duncan’s drunken escapades could have ever been.

Lord Rickard the Unworthy died in the year 322AC at the age of three-and-sixty and was succeeded by his oldest son, Lord Royce, but he tragically died from an inflammation of his lungs. He was married to Lady Berena of House Mormont who dedicated herself to her children, never remarried and still remains in The Rills as part of the small council.

Lord Royce and Lady Berena had two daughters and one son.

Their older daughter, lady Dacey, is married to lord Osric of House Stark (of Stony Shore). She is the grandmother of the aforementioned lady Lyanne through her middle son.

Lord Royce and Lady Berena’s younger daughter, Cyrelle, was briefly married to Ser Brandon of House Locke until his miserable death at the age of just three-and-twenty. Cyrelle later remarried to a lowborn man named Edderion and they live quietly at the court of Cyrelle’s late husband’s brother.

The current Lord of The Rills is Lord Lothor, Lord Royce and Lady Berena’s only son. Though not that young anymore, he is still known as the Young Lord due to his succession at a very young age. He is married to Lady Arrana of the ruling branch of House Stark.

Their son Mark is also married to a Stark, although lady Mariya is from the Stony Shore pack.

When the Dust Settled​

After Lady Barbrey’s marriage the Lordship of Barrowlands returned to the House of Dustin. It has been in their hands since then and with this amount of children it doesn’t seem to be in any immediate danger of going to anyone else.

The new Lord of Barrowlands after the famous Lady Dustin was Lord Jon the Just. He Was married twice before his death at the venerable age of two-and-seventy. While the name and family of his first wife is missing from the archives, his second one was Lady Alinor of House Footly, all the way from the Reach. After Lord Jon’s death she left the North for it’s complete opposite and became the second wife of Lord Myles of Blackmont. Poor Lord Myles though never could forget the gruesome way his first wife died so he spent his days drowning his memories in wine. Ultimately he succeeded as there is no more certain way to forget than to die. Lady Alinor lingered in grieving agony for almost seven years and finally followed her husbands into oblivion at the age of fifty.

Lord Jon had three daughters and three sons.

His eldest, lady Barbrey, was briefly married to lord Eddard of House Karstark, Master of Barbleton castle until his very suspicious death at the age of just two-and-twenty. Poor lady Barbrey then remarried to Lord Beron of Crow’s Edge as his second wife but ultimately her new husband ended up the same as her first. Lady Barbrey herself was never a suspect though and died from a tumor at the age of four-and-sixty.

Lord Jon’s middle daughter, lady Ryessa, married Master Ofgar of House Dormond, an upjump minor noble that was granted a newly-built tower of Elkstone near Moat Cailin.

The youngest daughter, lady Sylene, was married to Lord Jossart of House Waterman, Lord of White Firth, until his very unfortunate death in a trial by combat. She later remarried to a lowborn man named Reyard and resides at the court of her daughter, the current Lady of White Firth, where she often rules as a regent despite being considered by many to be very much mad for her dabblings with the occult.

Lord Jon’s youngest son Owen is married to lady Aliona of House Blackmyre. The pair currently reside at the castle of Barbleton with Mistress Arrana of House Karstark, who is technically Owen’s niece despite the fact that she is much older than him.

The middle son, Ser Ethan, unfortunately died at the age of just six-and-twenty. Maesters were baffled as to why his body just gave up all of a sudden for he did not exhibit any health related concerns whatsoever, but there was also no evidence of any foul play, so his tragic death was finally proclaimed to be a result “of poor health”. His wife, lady Branna of House Lake, was so devastated that no one has seen her sober ever since.

The pair’s only daughter Jessamyn was married to Ser Wallace of House Sunderland until his death from a gout at the age of two-and-forty. She did not remarry.

Lord Jon’s oldest son and heir unfortunately died before his lord father. Lord Denys was married twice. His first wife, lady Marna of House Stout, very mysteriously died at the age of eight-and-thirty. Lord Denys then remarried to lady Alysanne of House Woolfield who is now his widow.

Lord Denys had four living daughters and one son.

His eldest, lady Lyanne (with an E), was first married to Ser Morton of House Sunderland until his death at the age of five-and-thirty. She then remarried to a lowborn wandering scholar named Robard. Their son Harlon is currently serving at the court in Stony Shore. Lady Lyanne also is the mother of Ser Wallace of House Sunderland, the husband to the aforementioned Jessamyn, and probably was the one to arrange that marriage.

Lord Denys’ second daughter, lady Lyanna (with an A), is married to lord Benton of House Glover, but due to her current condition she probably does not remember that anymore.

The third daughter, lady Branna, is married to lord Walder of House Mormont, the stormsinger of Bear Island.

The youngest daughter, lady Orenna, is married to Ser Duncan of House Grell in the Riverlands.

Lord Denys’ only son eventually succeeded his grandsire and became the new Lord Hoster of Barrowlands. He was married to Lady Sybelle of the ruling pack of House Stark, daughter of the famous Lord Paramount Robb the Ironword, and therefore Lord Hoster thought himself invincible. Life proved him to be very, very wrong about it as he was beheaded by his own father-in-law in the year 340AC. He rushed into rulership so fast and without so little thought that he is now forever remembered as the Rash.

The Rash Lord also had three daughters and three sons.

His eldest daughter, lady Jonelle, is technically still married to Ser Jorah of House Mormont, but he is currently serving with The Bright Banners because of all the family drama named Jonas that was previously covered in the Chapter on House Mormont.

The second daughter, lady Arra, is married to Ser Pate of House Sunderland and is much more tame.

The third daughter, beautiful and fierce lady Beth, is married to Ser Roger of House Glover.

Lord Hoster’s youngest son, Master Marlon, was granted the castle of Brown Barrow after the minor House that resided there unfortunately died out. Master Marlon is married to Mistress Dacey of House Manderly.

The second son, Lord Denys, is married to his kinswoman, Lady Sabetha of the same House Dustin, Lady of Fever.

The current Lord of Barrowlands is the Rash Lord’s eldest son, the Seemly Lord Maric. He is married to his kinswoman, Lady Syrona of the same House Dustin, older sister of Lady Sabetha of Fever. Both pairs seem to be in total agreement of the current arrangement and are on very friendly terms with one another, which can only be beneficial to the common people and the lands these Lords and Ladies are to govern.

The Merry Mermen​

Lord Wyman of House Manderly, the Lord Lamprey of White Harbor, died under very suspicious circumstances in the year 297AC at the age of eight-and-fifty.

Wyman Manderly by BorjaPindado

His younger son, Ser Wendel the Red Merman, occupied the castle of Alethorp until his death at the age of five-and-thirty just a year after his lord father’s death. Ser Wendel’s little son was most likely murdered by an unknown party at the age of just five years old and the castle of Alethorp went back to the main brach of the Manderly’s.

Lord Wylis the Wicked was the next Lord of White Harbor. He was married to Lady Leona of House Woolfield.

Their oldest daughter, lady Wynafryd, was first married to Lord Brandon of House Locke, Lord of Oldcastle. After his death she remarried to another Lord Brandon, this one of House Cerwyn, as his second wife.

The second daughter, lady Wylla, was married to Ser Theodric of House Wells. After his death from the gout she was so grief-stricken that two years after his death she mindlessly went out of her chambers into the cold night in nothing but her nightgown. After a brief fever her lungs gave up.

The third daughter, lady Sabetha, was married to Lord Gregor of House Long, Lord of Longhall. Her poor husband was so stressed out by their lack of sons and so beset with grief over his third daughter’s death that he willingly provoked a rabid dog to bite him and died an agonizing death not long after that. Lady Sabetha did not remarry.

The fourth daughter, lady Olaria, is married to Ser Gilwood of House Belmore in the Vale. Faith would have it that Ser Gilwood is the son of Lord Benedict and Lord Benedict’s son’s wife, lady Cloie, which makes their family tree and their in-House relations rather complicated.

The last daughter, lady Erena, was first married to Master Reynard of House Silverfield, mayor of Hardmead, until his death at the age of five and thirty. She then remarried to a lowborn man named Theo who was poised to be the father of her two children (but it is a common knowledge that he is not) therefore making them legitimate.

The daughter, lady Lyarra, married Beyond the Wall. She was first married to Lord Tormund of the Nightrunners clan of Night Valleys as his second wife. After his death she remarried to Sygurrd of Ruddy Hall. More about her ordeals dear reader can find in the next Chapter on the Mead-Kings of Ruddy Hall.

Lady Lyarra’s brother Royce also married a freefolk woman, lady Gerie of the Crowkillers clan, but this time she came south instead. They are currently residing with the Umbers of Last Hearth.

Ser Roone is Lord Wylis’ only son. He succeeded his father as Lord of White Harbor and thus became the first Lord Manderly to follow the Old Gods. His faith however did not stop him from abusing his power and he was sent to the Westwatch-by-the-Bridge where he still lives. His former wife, Lady Owella of House Poole, never remarried and died at the age of six-and-fifty.

Their first daughter, lady Alys, is married to Ser Robett of House Flint (of Flint’s Finger). Curiously enough, he is a follower of the Seven while she is an Old Gods believer.

The second daughter, lady Lyanne, was briefly married to poor doomed Ser Allard of House Lynderly. He died at the age of eight-and-ten and lady Lyanne remarried to Ser Robb of House Stark (Skagosi pack).

The third daughter, Mistress Branda, is married to Master Helman of House Glover, master of Wulfhall.

After Ser Roone’s disgrace his only son became the new Lord Barthogan of White Harbor. He was married to Lady Wynafryd of the ruling pack of House Stark until his accidental death at the age of two-and-fifty. Totally distraught, Lady Wynafryd vowed to be in mourning for the remainder of her life (there are rumors that she is actively praying for it to be as short as possible, but let us hope that these are just rumors).

All of their children are known for their beauty.

The pair’s first daughter, Mistress Dacey, is married to Master Marlon of House Dustin, master of Brown Barrow.

The second daughter, lady Narbrey, is married to Ser Belis of House Donniger in the Vale.

The third daughter, lady Lyra, is freshly married to Andar of House Royce, also in the Vale.

Their second son, Ser Morgan, is married to lady Deana of House Waynwood, also from the Vale.

Their oldest son and the current Lord of White Harbor, Lord Dorren, is married to Lady Barbara of House Mudd from the Riverlands.

One Punch Men​

Master Benton of House Glover, Lord of Wolfswood, died in the year 284AC. His lands were split between his two surviving sons.

Master Galbart got the biggest piece and became the new Master of Wolfswood. He was married to Lady Elsera, a bastard-born member of House Forrester. After her death from a particularly nasty flu at the age of five-and-thirty, Master Galbart never remarried. Whether it was due to his rumored disinterest with women or his genuine affection towards his late wife we will never know. Master Galbart was also a very anxious man, always stressing about something, so after he died the common saying emerged how he finally is free from all cares, thus making him forever remembered as Master Galbart the Careless.

Despite the rumors, Master Galbart fathered five sons.

His youngest, Ser Robard, is married to lady Branda of House Liddle.

Their only living son, Ser Edric, is unfortunately serving his time in the Westwatch-by-the-Bridge. In his rage he attacked a group of stableboys for an imaginary insult and severely maimed them. He then confessed and was sent to atone for his unjustified violence.

Ser Robard’s twin brother Alaric is married to Syrona of a minor house Seagatt.

Their daughter, lady Alys, is married to Ser Martyn of House Liddle, heir of the North Clans.

Lady Alys’ brother Ser Wendel is married to a very formidable lady Maege of House Umber. Rumor has it that Ser Wendel was so intimidated by his wife that he felt he needed to prove himself, so he signed up with The Maiden’s Men. Rather ironic choice given Ser Wendel’s known inclination to wanton ways.

Master Galbart’s third-born son Benton is married to lady Lyanna of House Dustin.

Their only daughter, Lady Marna, was first married to Lord Arthur Quiver of House Glenmore as his second wife. After his death she remarried to Lord Vayon of House Harrow, Lord of Withered Heath, again as a second wife.

Master Galbart’s second-born, Master Harwin, was made a castellan of Wulfhall. He was married to Mistress Alanna of House Ryswell. After her death there were talks about his chambermaid bragging about being his new wife, but the fact that Master Harwin declared an indefinite period of grieving and was very evidently distraught about his late wife’s passing prove these talks to be just that - talk and nothing more.

Master Harwin’s eldest daughter, Lady Mariah, is married as a second wife to a freefolk Lord Magrun from Crowkillers clan, Lord of the infamous Craster’s Keep.

Master Harwin’s poor middle daughter Bethany unfortunately died at the prime age of four-and-twenty from a brothel disease. Poor girl was too pretty for her own good and fell for a lowborn man-at-arms in her father’s barracks. After her father had forbidden her from seeing the man, young Bethany’s temper got the better of her and she went and laid with the man out of spite. Soon after that the whole household knew about it as the man in question openly bragged how he “spoiled the master’s precious lass”. At first in her shame poor Bethany was too proud to admit the full extent of his deceit, but eventually she told her parents everything. Of course everyone already knew everything so there were no prospects of marriage. As the sickness progressed, she was confined to the walls of Wolfhall where she eventually died.

Master Harwin’s youngest, lady Sybelle, is married as a second wife to Arnolf of House Harrow, brother of lady Sybelle cousin Lady Marna’s husband.

Master Galbart’s oldest son was the next Master of Wolfswood. Master Damon was married to Lady Lyanna, the Young Bear of House Mormont. After her death at the age of five-and-fifty Master Damon grieved for her deeply and followed his believer just two year after.

Lady Soldier by Jose Barrero​

The pair’s only daughter, lady Joranna, is married to lord Theon the Troubadour, the middle son of Lord Brandon of House Stark, the Wise Wolf of Stony Shore.

Her younger brother is the current castellan of Wulfhall. Master Helman is married to mistress Branda of House Manderly.

The current Master of Wolfswood is Master Damon’s first-born, Master Leobald. He clearly had inherited his mother’s affinity for animals and is known as the Beast Tamer for that. He is married to Mistress Jonelle of House Bolton.

Their daughters both married into prominent northern houses.

The youngest son Mark is freshly married to a very, very promising young lady Raya of House Umber.

The middle son Benjicot is married to lady Sheryse of House Karstark.

The current heir of Wolfswood is Ser Roger Glover, Master Damon’s oldest son. He is married to lady Beth of House Dustin.

Blackwood Grove​

A lesser part of Master Benton’s lands, the Blackwood Grove, went to his youngest son, Lord Robett. He was married to Lady Sybelle of House Locke.

Their only daughter, Lady Arsa, was the first wife of Lord Royce of House Moss, Lord of Eastmelt. After her death Lord Royce remarried twice. His second wife, Lady Lyarra of House Karstark, was the mother of the current Lord of Eastmelt.

Lord Royce’s last wife is a rather enigmatic figure. Reportedly her name is Eraemera of House Pyrys, she is six-and-twenty years old and hails from the lands of Valyria where she returned after her first husband’s death.

Late Lord Royce met his silver-haired widow at the wedding. She came to the North with her younger sister Minelna. Two young women seem to be the followers of the Old Gods, highly unusual for an Essosi, let alone a Valyrian. The sisters came to the North in search for better understanding of their own faith, but found husbands instead, and in a curious twist of fate both were named Royce. Lady Minelna was the first. She met and fell in love with young Ser Royce of House Holt and married him soon after. It was their wedding where another Royce met his future widow.

But we digress. Let us get back to the fists at hand.

Ser Benjen is Lord Robett’s younger son. He is married to lady Erena of House Harclay.

Their only son, Ser Galbart, is married to his quick-witted cousin, lady Beth of House Moss, daughter of late Lord Royce and his first wife, lady Arsa.

The current Lord of Blackwood Grove is Lord Robett’s first-born, Lord Theonald. He is married to Lady Serena of House Woods.

Their only daughter, lady Lyarra, is married to Ser Lyonel Thunderbolt of House Sunderland. Despite their hopes and dreams, the marriage remains childless.

Ser Robard is Lord Theonald’s youngest son. He is married to lady Arya of House Norrey. He managed to sire three sons by her, but after that he openly shuns her bed in favor of whores and in his cruel fits of openness blames his poor good-natured wife’s misfortune for his own malady.

The pair’s oldest son Rickard is married to lady Lyanne of House Umber.

The twins, Helman and Theodar, are married to ladies Alysane of House Glenmore and Sarra of minor house Morcant respectively.

Lord Theonald’s third son, Ser Beron, is married to lady Alysanne of House March.

Their sons, Ser Theonald and Duncan, are married to ladies Arya of House Glenmore and Jonelle of House Lightfoot respectively.

Lord Theonald’s second son Joseth was first married to lady Sansa of House Forrester. After her death from the cancer of the breasts at the age of just five-and-twenty, he eventually remarried to lady Sylvi of House Ryswell.

Joseth’s only child, lady Serena, was briefly married to Jeor of House Bole until his death at the age of just eight-and-ten. It is said that poor lad was missing for days before he was finally found in his hiding spot in the cellars, curled into a ball, his thin arms clutching at his sunken chest. Lady Serena then remarried and her current husband is Desmond of House Long with whom she has a daughter.

The current heir of Blackwood Grove is Robett, Lord Theonald’s first-born. Man of legendary skills with a sword, he adamantly refuses any and all attempts to make him a knight setting that the Old Gods do not believe in knighthood. It is rumoured that his almost unnatural prowess comes from his ability to see the future in his dreams or his dealings with more obscure practices of his ancient faith.

Robert was married to lady Lynora of House Longthorpe until her death at the age of five-and-thirty. A known patron of whorehouses, Robett then managed to marry one of his favourites during one of his drunken binges, a norvoshi going by the name of Sweet Tongue Mina.

Both his daughters by lady Lynora are married. The older one, lady Ryessa, is married into her mother’s House, while the younger, Jocelyn, is married to the handsome young Willam of House Mollen.

Blackwood Grove's heir’s heir is Jonnel, Robett’s only son. He is married to beautiful lady Jhena, a freefolk woman from Warriormane’s clan.

Thank you! I've added the Glovers, so if I'm not forgetting anyone, then I've covered all of the requested Houses
