House Tyrell

House Tyrell is a major House that resides in Tree Hill as a vassal house for the Lord House Scott.

Much like the rest of Tree Hill they took terrible losses during The First Battle of Tree Hill. They have great loyalty towards House Scott, and in when the going get's tough the Scott's always know House Tyrell is behind them.It is currently led by Mace Tyrell II. His third son Loras is a noted tournament knight and was the lover of Kristen Trachtenberg before the First Battle of Tree Hill.

For the earliest history of the Valley of Lucerne post the destruction of Numeron, and the Great Migration House Tyrell controlled the city of Forks which was the only major city of the valley. During the events of the Driving Tide House Tyrell followed their loyal vassal house Lovie in their campaign to save the Dwarves of Lucerne, but discovered following the conflict that House Lovie was in control now of the entire valley. They held the city of Forks following the founding of the Kingdom of Lucerne, but the leadership of Harnin Tyrell led to House Swan taking control of Forks, and eventually House Tyrell leaving for Tree Hill where they were a vassal House of House Targaryan before they were exiled and then became a vassal house of House Scott.

The Tyrell sigil is a golden rose on a green field. Their motto is, "Growing Strong".

Early History
The members of House Tyrell were originally made up of Goths who are a germanic tribe originally from Kizlev. They were some of the first to flee modern day Kizlev, and bypassed The Empire, and made almost a straight route towards the Valley of Lucerne.

Because of this straight direction they were one of the first germanic houses to enter Forks, and in this way they were larger then the others when they arrived as well. As the largest house they made sure to gain the loyalty of any house that wished to enter the city, and if you were not loyal then you could go elsewhere. In this way they had nine vassal houses by the time of Driving Tide.

House Tyrell were the leadership family of Forks, at the dawn of the Driving Tide. Every house in Forks were a vassal house to House Tyrell, and in this way they were very close to two different houses in House Lovie through the relationship of This power led them to be the leaders when William Lovie begin to form plans for aiding the Dwarves of Lucerne following their call for assistence..

With the Lovie Family now in charge of the Kingdom, and House Swan becoming the dominent figure in Forks, House Tyrell was at a crossroads. They wanted to retain the power they once had but didn't see that as possible in Forks. This belief led them to moving to Tree Hill. This decision was once again a bad long term decision by House Tyrell, as it would eventually lead to their destruction in the Fall of Tree Hill. During their time in Tree Hill they watched bitterly as William Lovie placed House Targaryan into the position of Lord of the city, and in this way they were one more time ignored in favor of personal relationships on the part of House Lovie.



Fall of House Targaryan
Main Article : House Targaryan

Aryes Targaryan II. would be the Lord of Tree hill following the death of his father Aryes Targaryan I. and he would oversee the complete embaressment of his House from Lucerne. His reign started simply enough but it took a dramatic and horrifying turn when there was a hostage situation caused by two vassal houses in house June against house Cash. When Aryes went to the estate of house June in order to solve the problem he was accudently taken hostage by the house June honor guard and during the early part of the captivity he was tortured using a fire pick against his arms. Eventually a member of house June entered the honor gaurd station and discovered the beaten body of Aryes targaryan. House June immediately let him go but the damage was done.



Destruction of House June
When Aryes targaryan returned to tree hill he withdrew himself into the keep of tree hill and basically disappeared from the public eye for almost a year. When he finally came out he was completed unkeped and he had nails that were insanely long. He had dropped an immense weight due to the fact that he had eaten so little over the time he was hidden. But on top of the physical change he was emotionally changed as well. The once quiet peacemaker ordered the tree hill army to march on the house June estate and kill everyone inside.

When the massacre was complete the city was shocked at the near complete destruction of a large noble house (with only the youngest son, and his sister surviving the massacre), but in this instance the city felt that since house June had started it perhaps this action was necessary. The next retaliation of Aryes targaryan was far beyond the acceptable scenario of tree hill though



Destruction of House Cash
House cash was the other house involved in what Aryes came to believe was a plot to capture and embarrass him, so Aryes once again ordered the tree hill army to do his bidding through the destruction of house cash. Unfortunately for Aryes the army wasn't willing to destroy house cash so Aryes was forced to turn to the house targaryan honor gaurd who moved quickly in the massacre.

The honor gaurd moved throughout the house cash home and murdered nearly the entire house in a three hour battle that spilled into the street and ended up leading to the deaths of almost 200 people. With this kind of death count the people of Tree Hill turned swiftly against House Targaryan and their started to be open resisting against their movements. As this rebellion continued the ire of House Lovie was brought in through the involvement of James Lovie who left Lucerne in a convoy to Tree Hill and would arrive in a week.



The Week
House Targaryan was now in open revolt amongst themselves as well, as the members were being verbally attacked in the street after the massacre which caused them to have to hide themselves into their estate within the city. In only two days following James Lovie getting the letter and leaving Lucerne the House Targaryan estate became under siege by the citizens of Tree Hill along with House Scott, and House Tyrell. The siege continued for three more days before the gate of the estate was finnally breached, and the city waited with held breath for what the people would do as punishment to House Targaryan.

The siegers entered the estate and begin gathering together all of House Targaryn and before House Scott - who didn't want violence done before James Lovie arrived - could stop it the House was marched to the center of Tree Hill where House Tyrell had erected a temporary executioners square. Over the course of three hours the members of House Targaryan were brought to stand before the city of Tree Hill, and depending on the wishes of the city they were exectuted. The last to be judged was Aryes Targaryan, and before he could say a word Kraven June the eleven year old surviving member of House June stepped forward and stabbed Aryes Targaryan through the neck killing him. With the trials all done the surviving members of House Targaryan retreated back to their estate where there was full scale looting underway. House Scott moved into the estate and offered House Targaryan protection, and it was this act that basically saved what remained of House Targaryan.

In the end in the four hour trial of House Targaryan thirty two members of the House were dead including its patriarch in Aryes Targaryan II.

Fall of Tree Hill
Main Article : First battle of Tree Hill

House Tyrell had become quite an important House in Tree Hill, and their conversion to Christianity had also meant that they had grown closer to House Scott. This closeness had placed them in many financially and politically important positions. All of this would come to nothing when Tree Hill was attacked and nearly destroyed.

House Tyrell was significantly redused during this conflict, and by the time of liberation only 15 remained of the original almost 40 members of the family.
