Ran Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 What do you mean by "the Stark stories"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Hot Pie Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 If "Stark stories" means all the legends and tales told by old Nan, I'm all for it. If it means something else...I'm still all for including the Nan bedtime stories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slinx Posted September 21, 2006 Author Share Posted September 21, 2006 All the stories told from Nan, Jojen, Meera, Ygritte, and others. And maybe some kind of story around the Karstarks founding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Ah, well. We may mention the various tales and legends when topical. We're almost certainly not going to have room to actually provide whole tales, though. For example, I doubt we'll get the full details of Old Nan's tale of the Last Hero.

Benjen Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 How about the Stark Lineage back to the Conquest? With some lip service to major events along the way, like Wildling invasions, (e.g. Bael the Bard and Raymund Redbeard), struggles with the Northern lords (Boltons) and any other notable events for the House.

Ran Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 There'll no doubt be some house history. GRRM may well at least have a list of the Lords of Winterfell back to the King who Knelt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slinx Posted September 22, 2006 Author Share Posted September 22, 2006 Maybe some reference to the battles with the Andals and the Rhoynar, forget exactly who, but there was a Stark who fought so hard that the 'whoever they were' couldn't get past the Neck. Also were the Starks the leaders in the fights against the Children or did they take up command along the way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 I don't recall a specific Stark king being referred to in that regard. Moat Cailin was said to be the place where many southron armies met their end, trying to invade the North. There's also a reference to the Hungry Wolf, King Theon, because he was always at war, but he's not associated specifically with the Neck in any way that I can recall. The earliest Stark we know of is Brandon the Builder. He doesn't seem to have fought the Children. I suspect even the Starks have no real idea as to their history earlier than that legendary figure.

Antonius Pius Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 I would like to see more of the story of the Starks getting control/supremacy over all the north. The founding of the Karhold Starks and the battles (wars?) with the other great houses would be interesting too. Off course, that's a lot of information, but maybe a general outline with perhaps a few ancient Starks in close-up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Summer Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I would like to see more of the story of the Starks getting control/supremacy over all the north. So would I. From what we know of the Starks, they really seem to be a breed apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambz Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 If you go to wikipedia.org and do a search on ASOIAF and they have like articles and stuff on all the houses and the history of westeros. For the starks it has a family tree of all the leading starks fromBrandon the Builder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyanna Stark-Targaryen Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 The Stark's story is practically the only history I care about so I fully suport that idea. I'd also love to see a more complete Stark family tree. I'd also like to know more about the Targaryen lineage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markus Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 First of all, congratulations to both Ran and Linda. Second, I would like to add my voice to those who would like to know more about the history -- ancient and/or recent -- of the Starks. I've always felt that their history was somewhat neglected compared to the recent history of the Targaryens. In particular, it would be nice to learn details about some of the more colorful Stark characters of the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
