The World Of Ice And Fire meme ↳ 6/8 Characters: Theon Stark

In the aftermath of his victory, King Theon raised his own fleet and crossed the narrow sea to the shores of Andalos, with Argos’s corpse lashed to the prow of his flagship. There, it is said, he took a bloody vengeance, burning a score of villages, capturing three tower houses and a fortified sept, and putting hundreds to the sword. The heads of the slain the Hungry Wolf claimed as prizes, carrying them back to Westeros and planting them on spikes along his own coasts as a warning to other would-be conquerors.

[4/20] ASOIAF power couples → Orys Baratheon × Argella Durrandon

The battle that came to be known as the Last Storm raged well into the night, a bloody business and far less one-sided than Aegon’s conquest of Harrenhal. When finally Orys Baratheon found the old Storm King on the field, Argilac Durrandon was holding off half a dozen men, with as many corpses at his feet. Baratheon dismounted, so as to meet the king on equal footing, and offered the Storm King one last chance to yield. Argilac cursed him instead. And so they fought. Each man took a wound from the other, it was said, but in the end the last of the Durrandon kings got his wish and died with a sword in his hand and a curse on his lips.

For a few days thereafter, it was feared that Storm’s End might suffer the same fate as Harrenhal, for Argilac’s daughter, Argella, barred her gates at the approach of Orys and the Targaryen host, and declared herself the Storm Queen. Rather than bend the knee, the defenders of Storm’s End would die to the last man, she promised when Queen Rhaenys flew Meraxes into the castle to parley. “You may take my castle, but you will win only bones and blood and ashes,” she announced.

But the soldiers of the garrison proved less eager to die. That night they raised a peace banner, threw open the castle gate, and delivered Lady Argella gagged, chained, and naked to Baratheon’s camp. It is said that he unchained her with his own hands, wrapped his cloak around her, poured her wine, and spoke to her gently, telling her of her father’s courage and the manner of his death. And afterward, to honor the fallen king, he took the arms and words of the Durrandons for his own. The crowned stag became his sigil, Storm’s End his seat, and Lady Argella his wife.
