[[Harras Hoare]] known as the Black Chain was elected in a contested Kingsmoot. He bested Sam Greyjoy, and a Drumm claim as well. He opened his reign by continuing the conflict in the Riverlands. He oversaw battles in the Cape of Eagles, and the eventual withdrawl from those lands. He attempted to reclaim honor by bringing the Glovers under tribute in a duel against their champion, and doing the same with [[House Greatiron]] of the Giants Fist. Following this, [[House Greyjoy]] and [[House Drumm]] claimed additional lands under the kingdom, with [[Cragorn Greyjoy II]] attempting to summon a Kraken off the Cape of Eagles. A Maelstrom ravages the region to this day.

[[House Lannister]] attempted to secure their shores to invade the Reach, and [[Harras Hoare]] led them to believe it was accepted. Septons were allowed on the Iron Isles, and wards sent. These septons were slain by the Captains of the Iron Isles, and dissent was loud. Harras revealed his plan to backstab the Westerlands, and led an invasion of Kayce. After the defeat of the Westerman host, the Rock refused to surrender and Lannisport was put to the torch. Casterly Rock and Castamere were besieged as well, with Kayce and Dale being surrendered as part of a peace deal. Upon his return to the Isles from the Westerlands, Harras died in bed.

[[Joron Greyiron]] was elected to replace him as king of the [[Iron Islands]], slaying [[Cirrus Goodbrother]] in a finger dance to break the tie. Under him, the Ironborn scorched Kayce and returned to the mainland. Under his nose, a civil war broke out between The sons of [[Cragorn Greyjoy II]]. [[Rolfe Greyjoy]], an exiled kinslayer and older brother to [[Ulf Greyjoy]] the new lord of Pyke returned to claim the Seastone Chair. [[House Drumm]] and the [[Drowned Reavers]] supported Rolfe, and [[Pyke]] and [[House Hoare]] supported the main line members of [[House Greyjoy]]. [[Ulf Greyjoy]] claimed victory, but at the [[Kingsmoot of 180 A.I.]] was slain by the [[Drowned Reavers]] atop Nagga's Hill. [[Sylas Greyiron]] was crowned king among the corpses of [[House Greyjoy]] and [[House Hoare]].
