Blackwater

Line 148:

The shift into the Andal Invasions began on the Blackwater with the coming of two warlords; Armistead Vance, and Togarion Bar Emmon. These two men led hosts to the mouth of the Blackwater Rush, and made war on those they found there, burning the sacred groves, and driving the Children of the Forest from the region. Armistead and Togarion attempted to seize Duskendale in the name of the Andals, but were repelled by an alliance of [[Staun I Darklyn|Staun Darklyn]] and [[Florian Mooton|Florian the Brave]], the Mooton king of Maidenpool. Togarion retreated back into Blackwater Bay to regroup, whilst Armistead stubbornly continued westwards into the southron reaches of the Riverlands. Togarion Bar Emmon would later make another attempt to seize Duskendale, but broke himself against the Darklyn host, and was no more.

Duskendale would continue to expand ~~as a port~~ during the first century A.I.

Duskendale would continue to expand during the first century A.I. This was both in the literal sense, as increased trade and population made the town more prosperous, but also in terms of the power of the Dusk Kings, as they became the unrivalled power in the Blackwater by 90 A.I. In 84 A.I., the final King of Hogg Hall, Galbart Hogg - fell to the power of the Dusk Kings, being seized by House Darklyn before being handed to the Andal Bartheld's in return for their service. In 86 A.I. House Toyne were settled on Driftmark as subjects of House Darklyn, in reward for their service, and as a bulwark against the Massey kings of the Hook.
