== History ==

House Corbray trace their rise in the Fingers to the Andal invasion, when Corwyn Corbray, a knight of Andalos, led a host of fellow warriors across the Narrow Sea in search of new lands. With Valyria’s dominion expanding ever westward across Essos, many Andals sought to escape a future of bondage and servitude beneath the dragonlords. Corwyn, like many others, chose instead to shape his own destiny.

Corwyn, like many others, chose instead to shape his own destiny.

Upon landing in the Fingers, Corwyn and his men entered a land fractured by infighting. Petty kings of the First Men warred over sparse holdings, hills, woods, and fishing coves. Seeing opportunity amidst disorder, the Andals abandoned their oaths to their would be liege lords and seized these lands by force. Corwyn himself led the conquest of the Fingers, defeating local rulers Dywen Shell and Jon Brightstone, both of whom had unwisely invited Andal warbands into their service. Shell was burned alive, Brightstone was tortured and beheaded, and Corwyn took their lands and families alike, bedding Shell’s widow and marrying Brightstone’s daughter.
