A DRAGON IN THE STORM: CHANGES IN THE CROWNLANDS

NPC queen, Daenerys Targaryen took the throne after the death of her brother Daemon II Targaryen who died in the same way.

The return of Jaehaerys Targaryen will be the same.

During the timeskip before the Reach Wedding Season, Jaehaerys moved into Storm’s End with his house, Daenerys takes issue with this though allows it to avoid conflict and to reassure her council, namely the Master of Coin, that his worries are unfounded.

During this timeskip the war within the Stepstones happens, Jae departs to take part in this conflict for a period though he returns in time to go to the Reach.

A meeting between Jaehaerys Targarye, Tyland Lannister, and Leo Lefford take place in the reach (link pending)

Upon his return to the Stormlands, Jaehaerys leaves to fight again and then vanishes. This has people whispering he has either died, turned crave, or cloak.

There is a noticeable increase in the presence of Lords who supported the Green cause during the dance, the Princess Consorts party has a growing number of armed men everyday it seems.

Maximus Celtigar starts speaking with the Hand and the Queen about his concerns.

Jaehaerys Targaryen is on hiatus until September 1st allowing the Stormlanders and Crownlands to circle the wagons and prepare for what appears to be a slow brewing conflict.

CURRENTS FROM THE EAST

FACTS

Casimir Tully, alongside Altair Vance, is well known among the mercenary group, The Second Sons, as a seasoned battle captain and force to be reckoned with. But, during his young reign as King of The Riverlands, few opportunities to show this side of him have arisen.

Lys, a region located on an island off the West Coast of Essos, in Slaver’s Bay, is well known to deal in the buying and selling of slaves.

The Principality of Dorne, recently declaring neutrality from the alliances of the other Kingdoms of Weteros, has purchased new ships from “Lys, Tyrosh, and Volantis... twenty ships from each of varying battle-readiness to a total of sixty.” (x)

LOCATIONS

Maidenpool, Seagard, The River Market

PLOT

After placing an embargo on all trade between Lys and The Riverlands, the Lyseni Magisters have began to push against and test King Casimir Tully. Their merchant and trade ships have begun circulating that The River King is weak, and have disregarded the embargo entirely. These ships have been found in both Maidenpool and The River Market, using an obvious display of slaves to load and unload their ships while in Casimir’s territory.

IMPORTANT QUICK FACTS

The Eldest Tully sister, Princess Emilee, was married off to the Grand Magister of Lys prior to the Dance of Dragons in exchange for a slave army loyal to the Late King Grover Tully.

It came out that Emilee laid plans to claim The River Throne for herself with Lys as her backers — the outcome of this plot can be found here. (x)

Casimir has cut off all trade with Lys — this is PERSONAL, not so much political, though still political given the trade implications to not only The Riverlands, but other regions.

Because of Dorne's recent dealings with Lys, The Riverlands will no longer allow the docking of Dornish traders or merchants, and has instructed any Riverlander selling goods and services within Dornish Bazaars to cease and desist.

Currently the North is hosting their annual Winter Games after the end of the war, the details of these games can be found here. The games are taking place at the end of the year, they start a bit before Yule and last until Yule is over. This allows the Northern muses to participate in the upcoming event.

Note: Everyone writing during the coronation is writing in the new year unless they came to the Crownlands before, after, or during Yule. If your threads mention a crowning then that thread is set in 144 AC.
