“There's a story behind everything. How a picture got on a wall. How a scar got on your face. Sometimes the stories are simple, and sometimes they are hard and heartbreaking. But behind all your stories is always your mother's story, because hers is where yours begin.” — Mitch Albom

Favourite pre-asoiaf character: 1/?

❝Robert will never keep to one bed. I hear he has gotten a child on some girl in the Vale. Love is sweet, dearest Ned, but it cannot change a man's nature.❞

The only daughter of Rickard and Lyarra Stark and their third child.

Described as beautiful and willful.

A great amazon, she rode as northman.

In the tourney of Harrenhal she wept when the Prince sang a song and poured wine over her brother's head when he mocked her for it.

Defended Howland Reed of a group of boys, and beat them with a tourney sword.

Most likely the Knight of the Laughing Tree, who unseated three knights and whose identity was never known.

Was crowned Queen of Love and Beauty by Prince Rhaegar, who she would (most likely) later ran off with.

Died at sixteen (most likely) of childbed fever and stress.

♦ ROHANNE WEBBER: “Ser Duncan,” Lady Rohanne said, “I was ten years old when the black dragon rose. I begged my father not to put himself at risk, or at least to leave my husband. Who would protect me, if both my men were gone? So he took me up onto the ramparts, and pointed out Coldmoat’s strong points. ‘Keep them strong,’ he said, ‘and they will keep you safe. If you see to your defenses, no man may do you harm.’ The first thing he pointed at was the moat.” She stroked her cheek with the tail of her braid. “My first husband perished on the Redgrass Field. My father found me others, but the Stranger took them, too. I no longer trust in men, no matter how ample they may seem. I trust in stone and steel and water. I trust in moats, ser, and mine will not go dry.”

“A warrior princess, he decided, not some willowy creature who sits up in a tower, brushing her hair and waiting for some knight to rescue her.”

Some Val, the wildling.

"Even dragons bow to the sun, my sweet girl, but you are both. Do not forget that."

♦ ALYSSA ARRYN: Alyssa Arryn had seen her husband, her brothers, and all her children slain, and yet in life she had never shed a tear. So in death, the gods had decreed that she would know no rest until her weeping watered the black earth of the Vale, where the men she had loved were buried. Alyssa had been dead six thousand years now, and still no drop of the torrent had ever reached the valley floor far below.

Lord Nestor Royce seemed gruff and stern, but his daughter Myranda kept his castle for him, and everyone said how frolicsome she was.
