You're going to. Oh, Oh, The region known as the Crownlands was never actually a kingdom despite being formed by Westeros's first king.

It had been claimed the region itself that is, but never properly developed by a number of rulers over the preceding eons.

But it took Eagon and his sisters to finally maximize the potential of the place.

But before it became the capital region of the new seven kingdoms, before the iron throne was forged in dragonfire,

the region that became the crownlands was the land base of operations,

the jumping off point, if you will, for the the conquest before Egan could march on

heron before Viseña could march on the Vale before Rainies and Ories could

march on the Stormlands and all the other places left to conquer they needed to

control their immediate surroundings.

The Blackwater, Dusk and Dale, Rosby, Stokeworth, Crackclaw Point, these are familiar names

and they mattered a lot back then too, perhaps more now but still a lot back then. They were claimed by Argyllock the arrogant, the storm king, and actually

bent the knee to Heron, the King of Isles and Rivers.

As we discussed in the last episode, it made sense to strike at an area that no one had a strong hold on.

Aagon Vessena and Rainey subjugated the area with a variety of interesting results.

King Argalac and King Heron, mostly just allowed it to happen. And that might have actually made a certain kind of sense,

nor did they simply do nothing. They didn't just twiddle their fingers they prepared for something you probably

can't actually prepare for but they didn't know that they didn't know what they were up against

who will discuss all that why this might have been a smart plan or the best plan best doesn't mean smart sometimes

it's just all you've got available all that and more on this episode of

history of Westrose Podcast.

Hello and welcome everybody we're here to talk about the crown lands more about

Agon's conquest we're getting set up for the destruction of Heron Hall we thought
