  1. I always read it as sum up of Hollards who died, as such i have never read Robin as being the son of Jon. I suppose you could, but it is not the first thing that comes to mind, at least for me, so i think is ambiguous and we should be careful not to assume that Robin is Jon's son without more than one sentence to go on. I don't have the ice and fire app maybe someone who does can look there for additional information. Or its one of the mistakes in WoIaF since he is only mentioned as good-brother there. @Ran perhaps you can shed some light on the good-brother thing?
  2. Is this what you where looking for? The World of Ice and Fire - The Targaryen Kings: Aenys I The tradition amongst the Targaryens had always been to marry kin to kin. Wedding brother to sister was thought to be ideal. Failing that, a girl might wed an uncle, a cousin, or a nephew; a boy, a cousin, aunt, or niece. This practice went back to Old Valyria, where it was common amongst many of the ancient families, particularly those who bred and rode dragons. "The blood of the dragon must remain pure," the wisdom went. Some of the sorcerer princes also took more than one wife when it pleased them, though this was less common than incestuous marriage. In Valryia before the Doom, wise men wrote, a thousand gods were honored, but none were feared, so few dared to speak against these customs. This also implies that the dragonlords where sorcerers A Feast for Crows - Arya II "Some did," he said. "Revolts were common in the mines, but few accomplished much. The dragonlords of the old Freehold were strong in sorcery, and lesser men defied them at their peril. The first Faceless Man was one who did."
  3. Aeron knowing the Farwynds of Great Wyk says nothing of which branch was founded first so to me this says nothing about that subject. This does speak of a founding because the captain actually gives himself the name Farwynd, so i think that they are at least the oldest branch.
  4. It is rather vague but i do think the range of the hatching should at least include 131, so in that regard you have a good point.
  5. This all sounds like its happening in the first few weeks of 131 so yes its an option, but in the chaos of the war news of the hatchling might not have come out untill some time after it hatched. Also Rhaena lost her first hatchling shortly after it hatched so she might not have wanted it made public untill she knew for certain that it would survive, and because a dead hatchling would also be bad omen others would probably agree so 129 is to my mind still an option.
  6. As far as i can tell its because the beginning of 131 is when the greens heard about Morning, but the actual hatching happened some time before that. I guess it depends on how fast the greens heard about it and i do not have my copy of F&B at hand right now to check the wording.
  7. No you are correct, but i believe Potsk beat you to it.
  8. not all they information one those pages is from Blood of Dragons, so please be careful with what you remove.
  9. The currrent COA for Tommard Heddle is incorrect. It now shows a winged green demon on black, but in the source for the COA, the graphic novel of the Mystery Knight its a winged green demon on dark brown unpainted wood. I do not have the skills to change this so i hope someone who does will do that.
  10. Dayne and Locke where petty royal houses in Dorne and the North respectively, and i think the purple of Royce of the gates of the moon may be because the Gates of the Moon was they original royal castle of house Arryn before they build they Eyrie.
  11. A thats why i could not find it, i have put the reference behind the title in the opening sentence of the page so its more clear now.
  12. As far as i can tell the historical title of house Martell before they united with the Roynar is Lord of the Sandship, so i think your right. The fact that the two towers of Sunspear's old palace where build in roynish style seems to suggest that Sunspear was build after the Roynar came to Dorne at which point the Martell's would have already used the title Prince, so that backes up the idea that this title does not exist
  13. I think its based on Edric being the current Lord and his father being the eldest known sibling among the four known Dayne's from the previeus generation. So no book confirmation there, which does leave the posibility of a different Lord, an even older sibling or a childless uncle or cousin of Edric's father. I think they article should be changed to reflect that while its possible his father was the Lord there is the posibility he was not.
  14. I have removed the text about the surcoat.
  15. Where do you see artwork as a source? The source for his looks is "The World of Ice & Fire, The Targaryen Kings: Viserys I". I do see a "see also" link but thats just a link to the page with artwork depicting Daemon, its not a source nor is it used as one.
