Cape Wrath

Line 40:

=== First Century A.I. ===

Having seen the distant storm of Andals brewing upon the horizon in her green dreams, the Green Queen sought to strengthen her realm against any who might see it razed. Through a marriage to King Brok Wylde of Cape Wrath, who sacrificed his own wife before a weirwood and disowned both of his young children, the whole of the Rainwood came to be united under her rule in 31 A.I. The Estermont Isles were similarly assimilated into the realm in the year 50 A.I., following the birth of the first son of Lord Greenstone’s grandson, Dickon, and the Green Queen’s daughter, Rain.

The First Century A.I. saw a flourishing peace between the Kingdom of the Rainwood and the Kingdom of Storms, following a mutual defense pact forged between the Green Queen and King Qarlton ‘Halfhand’ Durrandon. Sworn in blood before root and soil, the two leaders committed to come to the other’s aid should either realm be threatened by Andal incursion. Though the Stag made no promises for his successors, the peace was upheld during the following reign of King Durran ‘Stormcrowned.’

In the year 51 A.I., King Gwayne Gardener and Lady Josera Crane arrived in the Rainwood, having sought out the Green Queen in an effort to return the magic of the Children to the Reach. Following a 12-year stay in the Paintwood Court, the two returned to Highgarden, bringing with them a host of Singers to be settled in the forests of Vinewarren and Redwater Wood. In the year 79 A.I., these Singers would play an integral part in the War for Goldengrove.

In the year 86 A.I., the first Andals stepped foot in the Rainwood, following the shipwreck of Ser Robert Mertyns and his family along the coast of Cape Wrath. Though tensions ran high and Lord Forrest Wylde wished to see them all slaughtered, the Green Queen allowed the refugees safe passage out of her forests, unwilling to allow harm to befall another people driven from their homes.

In 97 A.I, following a negotiation with King Durran ‘Stormcrowned,’ the Isle of Wrathrock was ceded to the Stormlands in order to land the displaced Sisterman refugees. The Rookelands of Griffin’s River are granted to the Rainwood in exchange.
