Stannis's Lawyer Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 We know the Towers, the Fishers of the Stony Shore and the Blackwoods of the Wolfswood were Northern Kings before the Starks. Well, the Towers ruled Harrenhal after Harren the Red's insurrection. The Blackwoods have ruled Raventree for millennia. The Fishers of Misty Isle were also River Kings. It appears that many Northern Houses fled south from Stark expansion. Just thought it was interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsay's Penguins Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 While I do find it interesting, they could be different houses. I like to think they are the same, but the history is foggy. Fisher and Towers would not be uncommon names. Fish and towers are common. There are Wells in both Dorne and the North, and Musgoods in the Stormlands and in the Westerlands the are Algoods, both with similar sigils.

Ramsay's Penguins Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 There could be more.I think it'd be great if the Towers and Fishers were the same houses, and like to think so myself, but they might not be.The fact that the Blackwoods left and went to the Riverlands suggests to me the Towers and Fishers did to.
