His son Artys lent aid to King Tristifer ''“Justheart”'' Mudd during the civil war against Tristifer ''“the Brave”'', though he did not live long and was succeeded by Lord Theodore. Theodore carried the war through to its conclusion, enduring even the hardships of the false spring, and maintained significant influence under King Armistead III.

When a great council was convened, House Den Ford displayed notable political acumen. By granting the lands of Rushdowns, they enabled the founding of the first military order there. In time, the Most Devout also relocated to Rushdowns, after Lann’s Sept was destroyed by the Ironborn.
In summer, however, the Den Fords suffered grievous losses. Near Lakehaven, a terrible sickness spread, leaving many dead or maimed, while at the same time the First Men rose in rebellion and the dead from the River and the Hills roamed unchecked. It took the entire summer to overcome these horrors.
Soon after, the Den Fords joined the war against House Lannister, summoned by King Armistead III Vance, though the campaign ended in defeat. In the final days of Armistead’s reign, driven to madness by the loss of his war, he killed his queen and one of his daughters. Then the king attempted to kill his only son. Lord Florian intervened to save the prince and slew the king in the process. Though acquitted in council, he was punished for regicide by the loss of his right hand, struck off by King Marq himself.
