The

The The In the songs, Nymeria is said to have been a witch and a warrior.

Neither of these claims is true.

Though she did not bear arms in battle, she led her soldiers on many battlefields, commanding them with cunning and skill. It was a

wisdom she passed along to her heirs, who would themselves command the hosts when she grew too

aged and infirm. And though none matched Namiria's feet of sending six captive kings in golden fetters to

the wall, her airs succeeded in keeping dawn independent against the rival kings north of the

mountains, and keeping it whole against the rancorous, hot-tempered lords of mountain and desert

whom they ruled. House Martel has guided Dawn for 700 years, raising its great towers at Sunspear,

seeing the shadow city and the Planky Town rise, and defeating all those who threatened its dominion.

And this is the story that led to those songs being written, embellished or otherwise.

This is the story of those six kings and golden fetters and how they were sent to the

wall. This is the story of how House Martel came to guide Dorn for these past 700 years. This is the story

of the final Roinnar migration, which enabled, among many other things, the raising of those great

towers at Sunspear and the will to create the Planky

Town. This is the story of how Nimeria of the Roinar and House Martel of Dorn joined as one

to conquer and rule Dorn, the Sun and the Spear.
