In 148 A.I., the Masseys bent the knee to the Durrandons.

In the same year, the Marcher lords banded together to form a united front against the Storm King, finding Beron's generosity to the Dornish refugees and enforced peace with the new Dayne kingdom an affront to their very way of life. They crowned Mace [[House Caron|Caron]] their king, and marched to war, aiming to slaughter the Dornish and Sisterfolk near their lands. The [[Marcher Rebellion]] lasted for a year, after the Storm King's host broke army after army of relentless Marchers. Despite his defeat, Mace Caron was never captured, and fled. The Marcher lords were imprisoned and ransomed back to their families, and their taxes were raised for their crimes. Lord Waldon [[House Dune|Dune]], for his family's loyalty, was made lord of Broad Arch and the Valor Meadows, the title stripped from [[House Clover]] for rebelling with the Marchers. The Clovers would then on rule Cloveridge. [[House Dondarrion]] also remained loyal, despite being offered the crown by the Marcher lords. Storm King Beron I would die two months after the war's end, having grown feeble in his old age. | |||
