Stormlands

Line 35:

In 130 A.I., the Yronwood kingdom collapsed, and [[House Dondarrion|Lord Harras Dondarrion]] moved to secure the Stone Way. He held it for only a year, and was forced to return it to the Wyls after intervention by [[House Dayne|King Dagos Dayne]]. The Durrandons had no hand in such a conflict, for their attention was fixed firmly on the Blackwater and vengeance against House Leygood. The Stormlands assembled a coalition to break Duskendale and return it to a first man king, Ormond Darklyn. From 132-136 A.I., Stormmen, Reachmen, Rivermarkers, Rivermen, and Duskmen pushed each other back and forth over the Blackwater Rush. The deadliest war the Blackwater has seen in generations filled the Rush with so much blood that it ran more red than black, and the greater war goal was abandoned. The Durrandons settled for the return of the Baywater Woods, a costly victory that left Beron I feeling hollow.

In 143 A.I., the Andals attempted to seize the Hook. [[House Toyne]] and [[House Bar Drox]] invaded after defeating the Massey fleet, but within a year, the winter returned. They had invaded during the Year of the False Spring, and were forced to retreat, leaving the Hook but conquering the surrounding islands of Sweetport Sound, Longbar, and Gullet Isle. The Stormlands weathered this second, brutal winter rather well, but the Storm King relied heavily on House Konugtun's generosity, for the war on the Hook dangerously stretched the stores of Storm's End.

In 146 A.I., Storm King Beron I saw fit to end the independence of Greatstock after a hundred years of tradition. Fearing that the Andal lords of Duskendale would have an influence over the young lordling that ruled it, and wishing to expel the Andal [[House Follard]], the Storm King dispatched his armies to bring Greatstock into the fold. Lord Brock Peasebury was installed after the initial claimant, Samwell, died of sickness during the campaign.
