geneocide Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 The wiki lists "Red Walder" Frey as born in 286 AL and his older brother as born in 287. That would put Tion at 12 when he fought in the Battle of the Whispering Wood, so I think that might be the incorrect one, but I don't know for sure. It also says that Red Walder is 14, though he is still alive and Tion is not, I don't think enough time has passed for this to be right. *shrug*I apologize if there is some better, in wiki way of bringing this up. Please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pale Griffin Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 You're probably correct. I'll try and find where that info came from in the books and change it accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scafloc Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 In A Storm of Sword chapter 20 (Catelyn) Robb says that Tion (and Willem Lannister) are twelve, thirteen. He makes an estimation and could be wrong but unless information from other sources I think we should stick to it. Besides in the books most children are rather mature for their age.

So I looked up the age of booth Red Walder (in the appendix) and Tion but I forgot to check which is the elder :blushing: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackTalon Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 It is perfectly normal in for a squire in Westeros to fight in a battle at twelve or thirteen. How old was Pod in the Battle of the Blackwater? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
