Prelude
In the year 8001 a force of four thousand men landed in the lands of the Seven Kingdoms the land of Westeros. These seven kingdoms were the Kingdom of the North, the Kingdom of Vale and Sky, the Kingdom of the Isles and Rivers, Kingdom of the Rock, Kingdom of the Reach, Kingdom of the Stormlands and Dorne. The army though small was ran by a man of Valyria named Aegon Targaryen. With him were his sister-wives Visenya and Rhaenys, his only friend Orys, a servant named Vhagar, and the three dragons the Targaryens rode into battle.
Looking to claim the lands of Westeros for himself Aegon began his War of Conquest north against the Kingdom of the Isles and Rivers under Harren Hoarce. Arriving outside of Harren's keep Aegon was able to break through the man's walls in the process burning the King alive. His son and the new heir was captured though. Now as his prisoner he was forced to surrender his father's throne. Fearing this man's strength both the Vale and the North surrendered.
Turning his attention south Aegon first captured the Stormlands and then the Reach. Lorren Lannister put up the hardest fight as he was able to convince both the Gardener's of the Reach and the Stormlands to assist him in his resistance. They fought for close to a year but in the end Lorren was eaten by his dragon and the war for the Westlands came to an end. Worried that he could not face the strength of Dorne, Aegon considered stopping his conquest there but he could not do that. He began his match south but he recieved word that Dorne surrendered without a fight.
In a single year all of the Seven Kingdoms fell to the rule of one man. In an attempt to solidify his rule he had a vast city built upon where he landed the year prior calling it King's Landing. He had a throne made up of the swords used against him in battle which it as well as the lands became known as the Iron Throne. The calendar was reset to the year one in recognition of his landing and the beginning of a new era upon his arrival.
Worried for his children, his wives and his own safety Aegon decided to form an order of knights who would protect him and his family from harm. These men would be dressed all in white and would be known as the Kingsguard. They would only number seven with their leader being known as Lord Commander. This position he believed his loyal servant and General, Vhagar should have. With his acceptance he became the first of his guards and he took the man's oath. "I, Vhagar, swear to serve your commands, protect you, your children, and any you send me to protect, and to be your shield in battle. I forsake all titles and claims to any position save for that of the Kingsguard. I will not marry nor father children. I take these oaths under the Seven and will serve my post until my last breath." With that he had his first Kingsguard, Lord Commander Vhagar.
