A Year of Births and Bonds
The Riverlands
The Riverlands rejoice as XY Tully is born to Lord Edmyn Tully and Lady Maisie née Piper.
King Aegon and his queens arrive on dragonback to celebrate, remaining for over two weeks. The visit forges warm ties between the Tullys and the Crown,rare warmth in a realm still cooling from conquest.
The Westerlands
House Tarbeck welcomes Lord XY Tarbeck, second son to Lord Jacke and Lady Dyanna née Farman.
The Reach
Lord Moryn of House Tyrell, second son of Lord Harlan Tyrell and Lady XX, née Redwyne, is born in Highgarden. His birth further strengthens the long standing ties between Houses Tyrell and Redwyne. Though not heir to Highgarden, Moryn grows into a young man of uncommon virtue and discipline. As he grows from boy to man, it is said by many that he embodies the true epitome of knighthood: courteous, courageous, and unwaveringly dutiful, a living reflection of the chivalric ideals the Reach holds most dear.

The First Dornish War Begins
Dorne
War ignites as the Dornish refuse to yield to Targaryen rule.. What had been scattered skirmishes along the borders with the Reach and the Stormlands now flares into bitter, unrelenting conflict, the clashing of swords and the roar of banners echoing across sun-scorched hills and windswept passes.
Aegon’s army marches through the Prince’s Pass, Orys Baratheon through the Boneway, and Queen Rhaenys rains fire upon Planky Town. Victory comes in fragments. Castles fall, men kneel,but Dorne refuses to be tamed.
Aegon seizes Sunspear’s treasured spear, declaring the war effectively won…just as Lord Orys Baratheon is captured by Wyl of Wyl.
