Iron Islands

Line 56:

[[Victarion Volmark]] began his reign on the defensive. Threats to the Arbor, Fair Isle, and Cape of Eagles plagued the Ironborn, with the Reach, Westerlands and Riverland kings intent on reclaiming their territories. The Fleet of [[House Lannister]] attempted two attacks on Fair Isle, but were repulsed each time. The Oldtown Fleet and the Reachmen reclaimed [[The Arbor]] after a long siege, bringing [[House Redwyne]] back into the fold. In the Cape the [[Seagard]] war drew on, as the [[Vancemark]] and [[House Mudd]] armies regrouped and began a campaign to reclaim the seat of [[House Mallister]]. A tenuous peace followed, with gains and losses on both sides, most importantly the loss of Seagard castle to [[House Mallister]] and access to the Trident for the Ironborn. A fleet was constructed, and explorers from [[House Greyjoy]] and [[House Volmark]] sailed the Trident in search of new lands and allies. [[Victarion Volmark]] died on his return from the lands of [[House Royce]], and a new kingsmoot was held.

[[Harras Hoare]] known as the Black Chain was elected in a contested Kingsmoot.

[[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.
