House Greyjoy

The Royal House of Greyjoy rules over the Drowned Kingdom, a harsh and bleak collection of forbidding islands off hte west coast of Westeros. Their seat is the Seastone Chair in the castle of Pyke on the island of the same name. Their sigil is a golden kraken on a black field, and their house motto is "We Do Not Sow." Members of the family tend to be attractive and well-built, with black hair.

The Great Western Reaving 312AC

With these victories, and the distance between holds, the Ironborn began to threaten other castles in the West.

Unfortunately, that did not last long. Western armies began marching almost immediately, pushing  the ironborn back by into the sea. The Ironborn did not leave empty handed though. Lannisport: the city of riches and women, would remember the screams for years to come.
