House Wensington

Landor Wensington is the son of Charles, and Krella Wensington making him a member of House Wensington. Landor Wensington would be betrothed to Anari Seaworth and the two grew close during their betrothal but it was ended following House Wensington remaining loyal to House Strong and she would be betrothed to an old Ironborn causing great pain for the two.

Landor Wensington would be born the fourth child and third son of Charles Wensington and unlike the adoration shown to his older brother Tommen, and the distain shown to his older brother Aren he would be treated somewhere in the middle of these two extremes by his father. Landor Wensington would be placed in command of Castle Wensington during the Invasion of Harrenhall and during his time leading the castle he would defend it from a small attack from the south where he killed or captured the entire Ironborn force including Hector Tidewood the heir to House Tidewood. Charles Wensington would be commanded by Robert Strong to move northward and retake the coastline that had fallen due to the raids of the Ironborn, and he would do this along side his sons Tommen, and Landor over several months before returning victorious to Harrenhall around the time the Lucernians first begin to arrive in the city.

Siege of Harrenhall[]

The Siege of Harrenhall
Burn the false goths in their homes. I don`t want a survivor to tell the story of how their city died. Leave none alive...From this point on I want only the memory of that city.
House Seaworth
I got sick and tired of being unimportant to a family that had always meant everything to us. We had spent our entire history being loyal, and what had it gotten us? What had we gained through all the blood, sweat, and tears of the last many generations?
Davos Seaworth

House Seaworth had been for much of their history the second or at the worst third strongest house in Harrenhall behind only House Strong, and at times House Gronn. This position was cherished by the leadership of House Seaworth for much of their history, and they were rewarded with control over the port of Harrenhall which was hugely important to the cities power. This power they had been given though for them always felt as if it was a slight as they secretly wanted total control, and this became an even more blatent belief under Davos Seaworth who was an honorable man but also a man that wanted more of everything he could get. At first Davos had despite his silent wishes remained loyal to House Strong and simply bided his time hoping that good things found their way to his house but as time went on his patience disapeared. In this lack of patience he would turn to his one loyal vassal in House Horpe and he would turn his forces completely against the House Strong loyalty of their history. The growing discontent of House Seaworth reached its pinacle and the basic end of the line, when they attempted to gain influence in the small House Jare, and when this was discovered Robert Strong had Halten Seaworth put in jail as punishment. With this imprisonment the leadership of House Seaworth came to the conclusion that House Strong were tyrants that they should take the mantle of power in Harrenhall from. They decided to do this by reopening the channels that had existed with the Iron Islands before they had cut ties with such rebellious thoughts.

Did I ever think that it would lead to all this? I don't think I really thought about the consequences of making a deal with the Ironborn. I simply saw a chance to get what I wanted and I was willing to do anything and everything to get what I felt I was owed.
Davos Seaworth

In order to establish this alliance once again Davos Seaworth would send three of his sons in the form of Dale Seaworth, Maric Seaworth, and Allard Seaworth, alongside his sister Kateryn Seaworth in order to strike the deal while he himself stayed near the leadership of House Strong to make sure they were not catching on to his plotting.

Siege of Harrenhall
You let these monsters inside. Without you none of this would have ever happened.
Renley Strong to Davos Seaworth

As the plans came through and the Iron Islands agreed to finance and support the invasion in returrn for House Seaworth becoming the vassal of House Greyjoy. This vassal position would mean that they would become a member of the Iron Islands but at the same time be in complete control over Harrenhall. Obviously both sides did not intend to actually go through with this but either way the deal was struck and the Iron Islands prepared to send thousands of troops to Harrenhall in order to take control of the city. The Iron Fleet would arrive in the night and when Davos Seaworth saw the giant horizon covered with their ships he would in that moment come to truly understand what he had done, and would delay giving the command to start the ambush leading to an argument between himself and his sons of which other then Dale Seaworth worked to convinse Davos that this was the right thing to do. After minutes of argument Allard convinsed him to order his forces to lead the ambush leading to the massacre at the docks that would come about.

Fall of the Docks[]

Zooey Strong - NEW

Zooey Strong proved to become a source of obsession for Allard Seaworth becoming one of the primary reasons that he worked so tirelessy towards ending House Strong and eliminating her family.

Something changed immediately in my heart the moment I saw them on the horizon. They looked like monsters coming to destroy my home, and it had never looked like that in my dreams. But I guess that was the truth in that what was once just a thought was now going to happen. Looking out at the monsters I was tempted for a single moment to stop.
Davos Seaworth

Following the command of Davos Seaworth for his forces to execute the betrayal across the city the docks would become the first major source of the betrayal with his forces moving swiftly against positions of power at the docks. Allard Seaworth had been working tirelessly to bring Zooey Strong to his side of things and get her to suppport the Seaworth claim and in his twisted mind he came to believe that one of the main ways to do this was to eliminate that which she felt close to in House Strong in the form of her immediate family and most notably in her closest siblings in the form of Heather, and Kyle Strong. Allard would days before the Siege of Harrenhall happened create a situation where Kyle Strong was at the Lighthouse with a diminished garrison, while Heather Strong was tricked into believing that her betrothed in Dontis Peach was planning a suprise for her on the day of the siege and thus she was in a small dockhouse waiting for him when the siege was too begin.

Retaking the Coast[]

Charles Wensington would be commanded by Robert Strong to move northward and retake the coastline that had fallen due to the raids of the Ironborn, and he would do this along side his sons Tommen, and Landor over several months before returning victorious to Harrenhall around the time the Lucernians first begin to arrive in the city.

Lucernian Intervention in Harrenhall[]

Lucernian Counter-Attack
You came to our lands and reaved. These are the consequences of you entering the lands of the Dragon.
Route of the Harrenhall Revenge - Maps
The capture and death of our people on the Rhine was a moment of immense pain, but through that change came our revenge. We would strike at their great Harrenhall conquest and show them what death looked like.
Mathew Clegane

Following the capture of Catelyn Starke and the deaths of many during the ambushes that followed the rise of Euron Greyjoy it was the decision of William Lovie III. that revenge needed to be struck. The Ironborn were at this point becoming stretched quite thin as they were still embroiled in a siege at Harrenhall, but alongside that they had assaulted the Sunset Islands where they maintained a large garrison now, as well as launching a major assault of Seagard which left their forces severely diminished, and it was in this position that William would make his move against the Iron Islands. Calling on the Order of the Violet Dragon, and the Order of the Red Dragon he would send two brigades of the Waffen Red Dragon Army to Harrenhall, but he also sent both Harlequin, and Helaquin (accompanied by their Whelplings) as well to the contested city of Harrenhall. Mathew Clegane was the Major in command of the 11th Lole Brigade, while he was joined by Alester Floren in command of the 3rd Brightwater Brigade and together the Majors in the Waffen Army would share joint command and join the forces of Harlequin, and Helaquin who were in charge of the Violet's that were sent to the city. While Mathew Clegane had been given orders to assist House Strong in capturing the city and evicting the Ironborn from the city, silently revenge was also in play as the assassins were commanded to kill as many of the Greyjoy's that were present in Harrenhall as they possibly could.

Matthew Clegane Large
We arrived at Harrenhall and were greeted by the Strong's of whom were beyond happy to see us.
Mathew Clegane

The Lucernian force would travel by heavy combat boat from Fairmarket thus avoiding once again the Trident of which was not blocking ships but might reveal their departure. Landing in Boralus breifly they would pick up some sixty troops from House Proudmoore of whom were to join on the campaign, and some one hundred troops of several other Kul Tiras Houses. Travelling northward up the Rhine they went passed the Lorderon pass and took the northern river through to the Strom River where they then went south and skirted near the Stone Islands before landing west of Harrenhall. Unoticed by any of the Ironborn forces they would enter the city from the western gate of which was controlled by the forces of House Strong and there arrival was met by great applause and happiness. Since the turning of House Tarth to the forces of House Strong things had been going very well for the Strong forces, but the leadership of Euron Greyjoy had flooded Harrenhall with Ironborn. Also accompanying these Ironborn were the recently captured forces of the Sunset Islands of whom had sent some two thousand troops to Harrenhall under the command of the honorable Ser Gunthor of the Sunset Islands. Due to the increase in Ironborn forces the Strong forces had lost control of increasing amounts of land, and the fortress market had been ground down by siege machines brought in by Ser Gunthor. Arriving in the city the Violet's would move away from the main force and meet with Renly Strong of whom had been placed in command of the assasins missions in Harrenhall

Harrenhall - Maps2
We moved into the area east of Fogburn Keep and planned to defeat their forces and link up with the Tarly forces. It was a simple plan, and if we were victorious it would be immense for the future of Harrenhall.
Mathew Clegane

With Ser Gunthor and the main force of the Sunset Islands attacking the marketplace, it was Robert Strong, and the Lucernians that turned and moved towards the are east of Fogburn Keep and south of the Tarly lands. Attacking with nearly two thousand troops of House Strong and the one thousand troops of the two brigades of Lucernians they were able to overwhelm the defenders that were in the area, and take control of the Hanged Man. The Hanged Man was built onto a peak located there, and was a heavily defendable area, and with enough men garrisoning it would be nigh untakeable. The White Emproium fell that same day despite reinforcements coming in from the main holdings, and retreating forces bolstering the defenders. With the capture of the White Emporium some six hundred of the Seaworth forces were captured alongside almost four hundred Ironborn of whom died heavily as they were not often to surrender.

Campaign of Death[]

Harliquin Large
We all have vengeance in our hearts. It is without a doubt the most human of our emotions. To hate. To want people to pay for crimes we have judged worthy of pain. I am hurt, and therefor you must hurt as well.
Renly Strong

With the capture of the eastern block of Harrenhall the Ironborn were flooded into the area to try and retake the east from the outnumbered Strong forces. While this was happening Harlequin, and Helaquin moved into the northern section of Harrenhall near Grightwood Keep, where Aeron Greyjoy II. and his family were staying as he commanded the attack on Helldor Castle. Harlaquin and Helaquin would infiltrate the keep alongside all thirty of their whelpings and killed their way through the gaurds and servents in order to reach the sleeping quarters of Aeron Greyjoy II. Aeron would wake to the sound of fighting outside of his door, and the moment he opened the door sword in hand a dagger went into his head killing him. His wife and young son hid in a closet, but were quickly discovered and brought out and killed beside Aeron. With the murders completed Harlaquin, Helaquin and the whelpings would attach wolf pelts to the three bodies then hung them off the highest tower of Grightwood keep as a warning to the other Greyjoy's about what they had done to the Starke's.

They left a trail of destruction behind them, and knowing the Lucernian assassins and their reputation it was clear this was not an accident. They could have killed the three without alerting anyone, and yet they wanted us to know that gaurds didn't mean a thing to them. They were coming for us...
Dagon Greyjoy II.

The deaths of Aeron and his family would greatly shock the leadership of the Greyjoy's in the city, and despite Dagon assuring them that gaurds wouldn't matter the number of gaurds on each Greyjoy were greatly increased. With this in mind Dagon attempted to send away Aeron's sister before she too met a grisly fate, but the boat she was to leave on was sunk, and the captain that was meant to take the ship out was found decapitated with a wolf's pelt nailed to his chest. Dagon who had been planning to send away his own wife and child was now forced to accept they would have to deal with the assassins another way, and begin to plan for this. While this was happening Ser Gunthor continued to attack the Market and was able to push into the Opera House and after hours of brutal melee the Opera House finally fell to the forces of Ser Gunthor of which forced the abandoning of the defences around the Opera House as they were now able to be targeted by the attackers from the Opera House Windows. With victory growing at the marketplace Dagon made the next move when he begin marshalling as many forces as possible and with this Dagon would lead some three thousand troops against Helldor Castle in a battle that would become known as the Second Battle of Helldor Castle.
