A/N: Sorry about the long delay, I had to get my american VISA for college as well as handle a lot of other paper work and stuff. Hope you enjoy the story!
Morgan Banefort: Since the story is focused upon the North, I haven't focused on the West too much, however I am not going to also completely cut off the chance of that theory being true, hence, my ambiguity.
Hadrian Caeser: Sorry to disappoint you, it just makes no logical sense not to.
ATP: Huh I don't remember giants existing outside of Westeros, so I didn't include that element into my story. Sorry! The North is also going to start to interact with other countries, as the North and other empires/kingdoms becomes more powerful.
To the other people that left a review, thank you so much for your encouragement I really appreciate it, the only reason why I didn't add it specifically on to this A/N is because there was nothing really to address in your review. Once again, I really appreciate the reviews, please keep them coming as any constructive criticism/ideas are welcome.
503 years AW: Queen Kyra "the Huntress" Stark lead an exploration in the Lands of Always Winter and discovered direwolves friendliness to House Stark, theorized to be because of the Blood of Lupa and Artemis running through their veins. She brought back 500 direwolves. She then put a reward to any hunter who could bring a direwolf alive to Winterfell, as well as creating harsh laws against the hunting of direwolves without justification such as the death of a human and without informing House Stark. The alpha of the pack bonded with Queen Kyra Stark and the ever Stark after her would be accompanied with a direwolf familiar.
They were fiercely loyal, and protective and because of House Stark's gift with the art of warging with an animal, House Stark would receive a powerful guardian. King Wiken "the Lovestruck" Umber would build the Wolf's Pen, a breeding ground for the direwolves, as a gift to Queen Kyra. Strength, speed, fighting instincts and intelligence was bred into the direwolves. They did not need to worry about loyalty, as most if not all Starks had a very close bond with their wolf, the Starks raisings their familiars from the moment they were born. Direwolves were bred with each other or, in a couple of rare cases, exceptionally smart or big wolves. Every millennium warg would go up to the Lands of Always Winter to bring back more Direwolves and release those which were too feral or unbonding. This was to keep the Direwolf gene pool strong and avoid inbreeding.
633 years AW: With the North's growing power and population, the Starks required a method to gather information and police their large nation effectively. To meet the growing demand, Prince Talmen Stark founded the Order of the Green Rangers. It was a reconoincess policing group, whose job was to capture or kill bandits and law breakers which roamed the lands, as well as gather the opinions of the smallfolk or even infiltrate other kingdoms. Prince Talem borrowed from House Greywolf and made the initiation task, having to find a familiar, in the same unbearable condition as a Greywolf would have to go through. All members must be a warg. They could be royalty, sons of magnar, or mere commoner as long as they are gifted in the area of being a warg and judged to be pure of heart by the Children of the Forest. The Children of the Forest were accurate around half the time, so it was a good system but it was not foolproof.
The Order would have a few defectors during their illustrious history, using their new found knowledge and training for their own greed. However, the Order would send their own to eliminate any defectors, killing them with extreme prejudice.
Whilst in the Order the people had to give up all their rights and claims to land. They could be released from service, but only if they were the last of their line. They could, however, marry whomever they liked.
There can only be 1000 members at a time. All members must be a warg. They were trained for years with the bow and was supposed to be able to hit another person's head from a 100 meter distance, while riding. They were trained to blend into their backgrounds and observe, steal, and sabotage the enemy.
They would train for a minimum of 5 years, to become a Ranger. The title White Ranger is earned through 2 more years on the field or an amazing demonstration of skill/success in a mission. A Grey Ranger requires one to be already be a White Ranger and an additional 2 years of service or another demonstration of impressive skill in an important mission. The Green Rangers were the elite. To achieve that rank one must best a current Green Ranger in an archery competition, as well as melee. There could only ever be 50 Green Rangers at a time. In a wartime situation these rangers would each command 20 rangers. Talmen Stark was the first Green Rangers and started writing, the Record of the Green Rangers, recording and listing all of the Green Rangers and listing their accomplishments. All members of the Rangers would be retired at the age of 40 and given the option for a small piece of land of their choosing, with the condition that the land remains in the possession of House Stark and their children have no claim to it.
874 years AW: King Karhen "the Architect" Stark asked the Children to use their gifts to create a small divide between the lands behind Wolf's Watch. The Children having destroyed the arm of Dorne and created the marches of the neck, told King Karhen that the request could be easily fulfilled. King Karhen had realized House Guardwolf required another source of revenue to maintain such a large castle, as well as realizing the potential of the underdeveloped western coast of the North.
Within a week, the grounds south of the Wolf's Watch shook, ever so slightly splitting apart. And within the day the shaking stopped leaving behind a wide but new riverbed. There was very little water within the river beds, as neither ends connected to the ocean. He then used the mammoths, giants and men to further dig out the ground. Once confidant that the canal could hold many ships, far greater in size than what they have currently, they carefully weakened the parts that connected to the ocean.
After 4 long years, the Wolf's Canal was built. After another 10 years, on either side of the Wolf's Canal there were 2 pairs of massive statues built. One pair of statues depicted King Brandon "the Builder" and King Brandon "the Bloody Blade". They faced towards the Iron Islands. King Rodrick "the Strong Wolf" and King Benjen "the Unifier", faced towards Essos. These statues were massive and between them there was mechanism inside, that once used, would pull massive enchanted chains out of the water. This made a barrier stopping the progression of any boats. The enchantment on the chain made it impossible to rust and made it 10 times more difficult to break. House Guardwolf man the towers, that connected to the side of the statue, that held the mechanisms.
They had three bridges at the thinnest point of the canal, which were manned by the Wolf's Watch. The bridges was just a long drawbridge. House Guardwolf made their revenue by adding a small fee to get across the water, as well as taxing the trade boats the traveled through the canal. Some small folk even started a ferry business, ferrying a small number of people across, but for a much smaller fee.
1021 years AW: King Brandon "the Economist" faced a problem with the flow of money. He realized that House Starks collection and hoarding of money could damage the flow of income in the Northern economy. He had to inject money back into the stream, in a manner which benefited the North and House Star. So he hired and ordered the many workers to rebuild Winterfell. Using the designs left by King Karhen "the Architect" and Brandon "the Builder", he built the greatest castle in the world, over the course of the next 10 years.
The castle was made even grander and bigger, with 15 strong tall towers and a new great Northern keep. The Hall of Artifacts, the Great Crypts of Winterfell, the Throne room, Great Hall, and many others were expanded. To accommodate these giants, the common areas of Winterfell had to be greatly expanded upon. The old Godswoods was completely walled off and was for the sole use of the royal family. A new Godswood was grown for the smallfolk of Wintercity. The rich and the poor alike had the same access to these woods and allowed greater interaction between them. King Brandon also planted a weirwood tree by the execution grounds, so that the blood of the convicts could give themselves back to the Old Gods and earn forgiveness.
King Brandon "the Economist" would start the tradition of every 500 years commissioning the building of a great wonder or rebuilding/expansion of the Stark lands to inject the much of the taxes collected by House Stark.
1132 years AW: King Boromir "the Gregarious" befriends a small clan of Giants and convinces them to slowly give up their nomadic ways and live near Winterfell. They become the legendary gatekeepers of Winterfell, a part of the defense against enemy attackers with the clan Gun Rug becoming a permanent defence of the capital of the North. This division of Giant guards leads to greater security for the Starks. This allows House Stark to also command the only division of Mammoth riders not under the control of the giants.
1236 years AW: King Brandon "the Stone Wolf" Stark prepared the North for war against the Skagos. The Three Sisters prepared their navy and so did House Thenn. Using these boats they carried giants, mammoths and men to crush the three barbaric houses within Skagos. House Hornfoot was given Skagos to rule over it, with the three houses as their bannermen.
The island had some rich fishing lands as well as being abundant in seals, which had a lot of fat, fat being very useful for making candles. With that conquest all of the clans of the First Men, who would have been stuck on the other side of the wall, had keeps of their own and helped with the Northern economy, as well as fulfilling House Stark's promise to those original clans.
1394 years AW: King Cadmus "the Spymaster" would commision High Magnar Jojen "the Wargmaster" Reed to start the King's Men. It was the greatest spy network in the known world. Using wargs, House Reed would be able to have animal spies and wargs all over the world and be able to latch upon all other spy networks of the other Great Houses.
They often guided ravens to their lands to gleem hidden information in meetings or private rooms. Nobody but House Reed and House Stark would learn how the King's Man was gathering their information. The Kingsman would sell their information to anybody willing to pay a price and greatly manipulate the world politics. The King's Man directly answered to House Reed and in turn House Stark, and would never be used against House Stark. It brought great wealth to House Reed, allowing them to expand their magical moving castle and allow them to rise in status as one of the most powerful House in the North and the world.
1473 years AW: House Stark was able to help House Ryswell breed the best Warhorses in the North and one of the best in the rest of the world. With long term investments and nearly 1500 years of hard work, House Ryswell bred Zorses, Dothraki Stallions, Dornish Sand Steed, and Penthosi War Mount to breed the Northern Warhorse. This brought House Ryswell wealth and lead to the North having another export. The Northern Cavalry would be equipped with Northern Warhorses.
1532 years AW: Queen Galadriel "the Engineer" Stark, a once in a million year genius, would develop engineering and physics as a field of study. Writing many books on engineering and leaving a great many books filled with mathematical equations and designs that nobody would understand for thousand of years, particularly designs for a flotation device, advanced weaponry, etc. She painted artworks more beautiful than any other and ruled as one of the greatest rulers the North has ever had.
She would work to change the inheritance laws from Agnatic-Cognatic Primogeniture to an Absolute Cognatic Primogeniture. Due to Queen Cassana's and her ancestors brilliance and the spearwives culture of the North, it would be accepted without much issue in the next 10 years.
This change in the Northern culture, allowed the North access to the talents of 50% of the population, which were being ignored in the other civilizations of the world.
It is during Queen Galadriel rule, the North would come in contact with the Ghiscari Empire. The empire having heard of the hardy folk with talents living in the Kingdom of the North preformed a slave raid the small village on the eastern coast, raping the women, taking of children, and the slaughter of men. As they sailed away two days later, after having looted and captured everybody, Queen Galadriel brought the might of the North down upon these raiders.
Her rage was legendary, having the genitals of the rapist removed and sent to the Ghiscari empire while she their heads adorned the coasts of the North. This would anger the Ghiscari Empire, who would completely cease trade with the North as well as plan an attack against them. These plans would never come to fruition as another threat rose in Essos.
1765 years AW: Magnar Eddard "the Philosopher" Whitestark would form the field of Philosophy, pondering upon many of life's greatest questions. This interest in the philosophy would lead to the North's greater focus upon the future and long term investments. This when paired with the inevitable coming of winter, lead to the North focus upon long-term investments to assist them in their time of need.
1843 years AW: Prince Damon "the Librarian" loved to spend time within the library, but was finding it over cramped and overflowing with books collected over their nearly 2000 year rule. So to compensate he would spend 10 years of his life designing and building the greatest library in the known world, far greater than the library being built in Oldtown. It would be known as the Great Library of Winterfell, incorporating the designs of both the Citadel of the Order of Maesters, his own, and a Northern design. He would study the architecture of the Ghiscari, Andal, Tall Men, and many more being inspired by many of the architecture of the other countries.
The Great Library of Winterfell would house thousands of scrolls, books, and tablets, with room for expansion as well as more storage.
1899 years AW: King Brandon "the Shipwright" in tandem with Magnar Antioch Greystark would build a massive navy on the western shore of the North, to combat the constant raiding from the Iron Islands on the western shore, under the command of House Greywolf.
1929 years AW: King Brandon "the Burner" Stark lead the invasion of the Iron Islands after the Ironborn tried to kidnap his brothers betrothed, Magnara Lyanna Mormont. He was able to bring in the Eastern Navy through the canal as well as mobilize the giants. With his father's Western Fleet and his vassals, with the first major battle being the massive sea battle at by the Saltspear against the Ironborns. The Stark would experience a massive victory, and after burning all of the damaged captured Ironborn longships, the bays name would become Blazewater Bay.
They landed Blacktyde Islands. They quickly moved on to Orkmont, then splitting up to attack Old Wyk and Harlaw at the same time. By 3 years they had controlled all islands except the island of Pyke. And with the men all ready they attacked Pyke from all fronts, quickly overwhelming the Greyirons. They all but wiped out the Greyiron line, with King Royce taking Yara Greyiron as his wife and made the Greyjoys the High Magnar of the Sunset Isles, granting them the title the Mangar Reaver of Pyke and Shield of the Sunset. They were told that they could continue their pillaging ways, as long as they didn't attack the Northern Kingdom and didn't take slaves. The Greyjoys agreed to these terms and soon became one of House Stark's greatest allies.
King Brandon "the Burner" would change his title to become the High King in the North and the Isle. The embodiment of winter and the storm. High Magnar of Winterfell. King of the First Men, Children of the Forest, and the Giants, and Magnar Protector of the Realm.
1939 years AW: House Greystark, a cadet branch of House Whitestark and Greywolf, believed themselves more worthy of the Throne of Winter and would declare its rebellion against House Stark after the death of King Brandon "the Burner". With the support of Bolton's Blood Company, founded by the bastard Bolton who escaped the destruction of his house, their vassals, and the support of an offshoot branch of House Flint, and the first Andal Warlord, Argo Sevenstar, to make a guerrilla war against House Stark, killing thousands of civilians.
1945 years AW: House Greystark would be defeated by House Stark, King Ignotus "the Strange Wolf" who would execute all males from House Greystark over the age of 13 sending the rest towards the wall and having all of the females marry into different loyal families. The Magnar of House Greystark, Magnar Theon "the Turncloak" would be given a Blood Eagle, a rare ceremony of execution for breaking one of the Old Gods most sacred rules, in front of the Winterfell Weirwood execution grounds to earn forgiveness for the rest of the Greystarks. All of House Greystark vassals would be stripped of their rank, home, and titles. The Blood Company would run away before the false bastard Bolton line could be stamped out. Magnar Harlon Whitestark would slay Green Man Beron Greystark, once considered one of the greatest swords in the North, cementing their allegiance to House Stark and earning forgiveness for the insolence of their cadet house. Argos Sevenstar was able to escape back to the Andalos, where he would continue his family line and breed ambitions within his sons to take the North for themselves.
1975 years AW: Argos "the Warrior Reincarnate" Sevenstar, son of the original Argos Sevenstar who had attacked the North before came back with even more Andals attempting to escape the ever growing power of the Valyrians. House Sevenstar was one of the greatest and purest Andal nobilities, second only to House Arryn and their house had amassed more Andal warriors then any other Andal Invasion of Westeros. Argos "the Warrior Reincarnate", who was considered to be the greatest Andal warrior of all time met King Brandon "the Bloody Wolf" on the field of battle. After dozens of skirmishes, surprise attacks, naval battles and the like by Oldcastle. Argos had slain a half dozen Northern Magnars such as Magnar Mormont, Umber, and Giantsbane, whilst Brandon had himself slain the other six Andal warlords who had supported Argos. When Brandon and Argos met on the battlefield, It is said that their blades clashed for hours, reaching well over a thousand clashes. Each warrior were littered with minor cuts and bruises and were breathing heavily. It is said that Argos met his doom, when he over swung and received a blow to the jaw that knocked him out cold. With the fall of Argos, the Andals attempted to surrender, but Brandon refused, citing their crimes in cutting and burning of the Weirwood tree by Oldcastle. It is said that Argos and his surviving Andal invasion force was beheaded by the newly planted Weirwood sapling, soaking the tree in Andal blood, earning himself the name "the Bloody Wolf", and thus ending the Andal Invasion of the North.
During this time House Stark was not the only house facing the Andal Invasion. The Vale was ruled by House Royce, the Bronze King of the Vale, and House Gryffin, the Gryffin Kings of the Vale. It was a hard fight for them, but the bronze runic armour had helped immensely in fighting the other petty kings, and House Royce began to rise above House Gryffin, slowly overtaking them in land and men.
During the period of the Andal Invasion of Westeros, the Warlord Artys Arryn lead the Andals to land in the Vale. Using assassinations and intrigue Artys Arryn quickly destroyed most of House Gryffin and claim their seat, the Eyrie, Gates of the Moon, and the Bloody Gate. House Gryffin would first escape to the Westerlands, before being chased out in four generations for gathering too much power. They would then move to the North where they were welcomed. House Gryffin's crown would be added to the Halls of Artifacts in Winterfell in exchange for being allowed into the North. Using the lands of House Gryffin, House Arryn began their war with House Royce. While House Royce had more land, House Arryn had more men and better intrigue.
King Robar Royce warred upon one Andal Warlord at a time, as the Andal warlords had begun their petty rivalries and infighting - the same infighting that had plagued the First Men and allowed the Andals to seize power. King Robar won many battles, defeating the Andal King of the Fingers, Retaking of Gulltown, the Hammer of the Hills, and many more. However, his brilliance led to his downfall, as the Andals, fearing King Robar enough, ultimately reacted and chose to unite under King Artys "the Falcon Knight" Arryn. The two armies fought in the Battle of Seven Stars. According to singers, Robar's army threw back six Andal charges, but the seventh one broke through. Nevertheless, Robar ordered a counterattack and led the charge himself, with his champions at his side, slaying Torgold Tollett. Then he spied the Falcon Knight's armor across the field and spurred toward him. King Robar managed to slay King Artys screaming in victory, but then five hundred knights charged down the slopes of the Giant's Lance to take Robar's disorganized host in the rear. Leading the attack was a champion in silvered steel, with a moon-and-falcon on his shield and wings upon his warhelm: the true Ser Artys; whereas the man King Robar had slain was a mere decoy. King Robar and thirty lords supporting him died. House Arryn, the oldest descendant to Hugor of the Hill purest of Andal Nobility claimed the Vale for himself, with House Royce as his vassal forcing the boy lord to renounce the Old Gods, and abandon his First Men heritage. Lord Harwin "the Broken" Royce would not be allowed to rule Runestone, House Arryn having appointed a regent to rule in his name. Lord Harwin was held as a "guest" in the Eyrie, constantly being educated in the Andal ways. Lord Harwin would be forced to marry Artys' younger sister and their child was taken from Lord Harwin to be educated by Artys. It was only Artys Royce, who was allowed to return to Runestone and take control over his ancestral home. House Arryn now claimed the title King of the Vale, the Fingers, and the Mountains of the Moon. King of the Andals and First Men. It would take House Arryn four generations to consolidate and secure their rule as a Great House of Westeros.
House Gardener, the other descendants of the Last High King of the First Men, Garth "the Greenhand", had conquered the entire of the fertile lands the Reach allowing them access to more fighting men than any other Great Kingdom. They were even able to make powerful houses, such as House Hightower, bend the knee.
The greatest of the Gardeners was King Garth "the Goldenhand" Gardener, for his deeds both in war and in peace. Ascending to the Oakenseat at age twelve, Garth ruled for eighty-one years, of which less than ten were spent at war. In the few times Garth "Goldenhand" did go to war, he utterly trounced his adversaries. As a boy he defeated an invasion of Dornishmen by King Ferris Fowler, then drove the Ironborn who had began to settle in the Shield Islands and fortified them with men from the Reach. Garth "Goldenhand" defeated the alliance between the King of the Rock and Storm King, defeating both in the Battle of Three Armies, and dictated the boundaries of their three kingdoms in the aftermath. However no matter how skilled his prowess in the battlefield was, Garth's greatest accomplishment was giving his people three-quarters of a century of golden peace, bringing unprecedented prosperity in the Reach. Garth's rule became known as the Golden Reign and was when the Reach truly flowered.
During the Andal Invasion, the Three Sage Kings, or the Three Coward Kings as the North calls them, began the assimilation of the Reach into the Andal culture in three generations. This would be the quickest assimilation done over an entire Kingdom.
This would begin the Northern hatred of the Reach during this time, for they were responsible for the genocide of the Children of the Forest in the Reach.
The many Storm King of House Durrandon conquered the Stormlands and even the Riverlands, expanding their power of the Storm Kings greatly. King Durran "the Fair" brought the isle of Tarth and Estermont into their rule as a vassal, changing their royal title to Magnars of the Storm and King of the Stormlands. King Durran "the Mighty" expanded their lands to Blackwater rush, and conquered Duskendale and Maidenpool. His great great grandson King Qualton "the Conqueror" conquered the Riverlands with the help of House Stark for another marriage, gaining the title King of the rivers. House Durrandon became one of the most powerful Great House of Westeros with their conquests. Their alliance to the Stark growing their wealth and cementing their power.
During the Andal Invasion, King Monfryd "the Faithslayer" Durrandon was finally defeated by the Seven Warlords of the Holy Brotherhood at the Battle of the Bronzegate in combat. King Monfryd having been slain by one of the Seven Warlords who stabbed in his back after yielding.
Crowned Prince, now King Durran showed the meaning of his House words and destroyed the five remaining Andal Warlords. His rule should have been filled with peace and prosperity after such a victory, however, he faced more tragedy as King Maldon "the Kinslayer", his younger brother, betrayed him. King Maldon after marrying a Andal bride overthrew his brother and slayed him in battle. King Durran was first locked out of Storm's End, after returning from the Battle of the Kingswood. Prince Maldon slaughtered all loyal Durrandon guards and filled the castle with Andals. King Durran would be put at a disadvantage from this point on, as King Maldon has fresh troops from the Andals as well as the traitorous bannerman, who had betrayed their loyalty to him. House Stark alerted to this terrible betrayal would attempt to assist King Durran gain control of the Stormlands. However, it took them a moon to receive news of the betrayal, three moons to gather the men, and another two moons to reach the Stormlands. During that time, although King Durran had fought valiantly and with greater skill, King Durran had been slain by King Maldon. It was through treachery as King Durran refusing to slay his brother turned around in victory after having forced him to yield, when King Maldon stabbed him in the back, mirroring the death of his father.
Crowned Prince Theon would land a fornite later and hear of this news. In rage Theon would beat back the Andal men and sent them running back to Storm's End. Theon knowing his friend would not receive a proper burial, took his body back into Winterfell, where he was buried in the Great Crypts. House Stark would inform all other Houses in Westeros of King Maldon's actions and name him Kinslayer. House Stark declared that any alliance the North had with the Stormlands is now over and House Stark considered the current House Durrandon no Durrandons at all. The Storm Crown, worn since King Durran "the Godsgrief" was placed in the Hall of Artifacts along with their ancestral warhammer. King Durran "the Faithful" was one of two none Starks ever to be buried in the Great Crypts of Winterfell.
Thus, the Stormlands fell to the Andal Invasions, assimilating to the Andal culture and abandoning the culture of the First Men. The Stormlands would face unrest for six generations before becoming completely Andal.
House Casterly fell to House Lannister, the newest the Great House. Lann "the Clever" Hill, a genius bastard of House Gardener, had driven the cruel tyrannical King Jaime Casterly insane for the Casterly bannermen. He confused the sleeping Casterlys by whispering threats, howling like a demon, stealing treasures from one brother and placing them in the bedchamber of another, and rigging traps through the forgotten hidden passages of Casterly Rock. Thus, he set the Casterlys at odds with one another and convinced them their seat was haunted. Due to stress and infighting, the Casterly line soon lost most of its members and Lann took the seat as his own. 3 members of House Casterly is thought to have escaped the castle, although their line is lost in history.
In return House Casterly's vassals swore fealty to Lann. However, Lann only had one daughter before becoming infirm. The Andal Invaders lead by Tytos Star captured and conquered half of the Westerlands. Lann once again using his brilliance, convinced Tytos Star marry his daughter and taken on the name Lannister, named after himself. After many months of careful diplomacy, intrigue, and show of force Tytos agreed, thereby forming House Lannister the Kings of the Rock.
Thus, the Westerlands technically fell to the Andal Invasions, assimilating to the Andal culture and abandoning the culture of the First Men, over the course of four generations.
There were three powerful houses in Dorne. King Arthur of House Dayne, King of the Stoney Dornish and King of the Red Mountains. There was King Qoren of House Martell, King of the Salty Dornish and King of the Broken Arm. And finally there was King Doran of House Yronwood, King of the Sandy Dornish and the King of the desert. Those three houses fought one another, never quite gaining the upper hand.
When the Andals came, House Martell fell first, as House Martell often traded with Essos and already had hundreds of Andals within his lands. With the kidnapping of his heir, House Martell quickly joined the Andals and assimilated to their culture. House Yronwood fell next, as the Andal forces of House Durrandon and House Martell worked together to convert House Yronwood into an Andal House. After 5 years of warring, House Yronwood finally gave up their First Men culture and joined the Andal culture.
Soon both House Yronwood and House Martell pressured House Dayne to switch. However, House Dayne remained steadfast as the First Men, beating back dozens of attacks by House Yronwood and House Martell with the help of House Stark, who refused to allow another great house and ally to fall under Andal rule. It would take them 20 year before they would came to an armistice. House Dayne in return for peace would allow Andals into his lands. They would however not need to convert their own culture. This armistice was agreed upon and the Andal Invasions of Westeros were officially over.
All Weirwood south of the Neck except the ones in House Dayne's lands and the ones in the God's Eye was all cut down. All Children of the Forest found in the south was promptly burned at the stake.
