History of Westeros

Stannis Baratheon starves to death within Storm's End. His wife, Selyse Florent, surrenders the castle in the name of Renly Baratheon, the boy who would be Lord. Rhaegar pardons Selyse and names her regent for her goodbrother.

The Iron Fleet, lead by 'King' Quellon and his grandson Rodrik, sail to Lannisport to raid the West. They suffer a surprising first lost and both Greyjoy are killed. Kevan Lannister assures King Rhaegar that the rebellion is over, but Quellon's son and Rodrik's father, Balon, crowns himself and vows to make the greenland red.

Ashara of House Dayne marries Lord Renly Baratheon and becomes Lady of Storm's End, bringing small joy to a despondent Queen Elia Martell.

After marrying Margaery Tyrell in secret, Prince Viserys Targaryen is granted the lands of Summerhall to build his own branch of House Targaryen.

Gerion Lannister is landed by his grateful nephew Tyrion Lannister, and he grants his favourite uncle the seat of Castamere in exchange for the sword Brightroar. In honour of his uncle's service to his house, Tyrion bestows the title of 'The Brightroar' onto his uncle's line.

Driftmark is sieged by the forces of Aegon Blackfyre, and the House is promised that one of their daughters could become a Queen if they join the Blackfyre cause. The Velaryons refuse and their agents set fire to the Blackfyre's fleet, decimating it.

King Aemon and Aegon Blackfyre meet in battle again and once more, Aemon loses. His army takes heavy casualties and he is forced to Maidenpool, where he calls on the Riverlands for aide.

Aegon Blackfyre is overwhelmingly defeated at Brindlewood between the forces of Aemon Targaryen and Hoster Tully, though the Lord of Riverrun dies of his injuries. Aegon survives the defeat, and the men still loyal to the Black Dragon go into hiding with him in the Crownlands. A two month manhunt for the pretender begins.

Petyr Baelish, Master of Coin, marries Lysa Tully after lengthy negotiations, the sister of the very woman he had fought to win. Lord Hoster is reluctant to give his only untethered daughter away, but is eventually swayed by the gold and promises of Littlefinger. He and his trout bride then pay a costly sum to Lord Mallister to settle the ruin of Oldstones.

Aelyx (307), Helaena (310), Rhaelys (313), Vhaegar (314), Aerea & Rhaelle (315) and Lyanna (316) are born to King Aemon and Queen Daenerys.

Baelor (325), Daenys (327), Laenor (328), Jahaelys (330), Aemond (333), Ayrra (335) and Helaenora (338) are born to King Aelyx and Queen Jaelle Velaryon. They are hailed as the 'Seven Hatchlings' by the smallfolk.

Prince Baelor is made the Prince of Dragonstone and Harrenhal, granted an additional seat by his doting father King Aelyx with the intent of Baelor's future children to also claim Harrenhal as a seat; the foundation of a third branch of Targaryen. It is seem as a strengthening of House Targaryen. Baelor's long-awaited betrothal to his sister Daenys is also announced at this time, and their marriage is to happen at his new seat.

Lord Manderly, having grown disturbed by reports of the inhabitants of Skagos growing more and more wild with the integration of wilding and Vale mountain clans, convinces Lord Stark that the Skagosi need to be brought firmly under their control, and not just formally considered vassals of the Wolf. What follows is a bloody week of inter-regional conflict, ending with a religiously repressed North.

Following internal conflict between the Prince of Dorne and his brother, House Martell of Dorne splits in two; the Spear of Dorne remaining as House Martell, and the Sun of Dorne becoming House Nymeros of Bloodstone, a naval-centric house that seeks restoration of the Rhoynish way of life. They are considered a vassal of Dorne only in name, similar to Skagos prior to the Subjugation. They also lay claim to Grey Gallows, naming themselves wardens of the desolate island.

Lonely Light falls to some unknown foe, the entire population of the island vanishing, bloodlessly, Nobody seems to be able to adequately explain what happened, though rumors of old Euron Crowseye and his damned fleet in the Sunset Sea re-surge following the incident, leaving the Ironborn faced with an inexplicable new foe.
