The Acts of Lord Arlo Redwyne. the late Lord of the Arbor, during the Dance of Dragons.
The Beginning:
+. Arlo arrives to King's Landing during the coronation of Aegon II Targaryen where he bends the knee.  + During the battle between the Blackwoods and the Brackens, Redywyne men arrive to assist in the respone to raiding on Brack Lands. While Ser Amos Bracken led a strong force to Burning Mill where he was slain. Raylon Rivers led Green Survivors back to Bracken Territory.  +. In the capturing of Stone Hedge, Lord Humfrey, and Raylon yeilding to King Consort Daemon Targaryen, a good number of Redwyne men manage to escape. This loss seems to cause something within Arlo to stir.
The Sack of Duskendale:
+ Arlo allows 1000 men to join the Green King and his new hand Criston Cole in the Sacking of Duskendale. +. Arlo leads his own men into this battle, because of his added strength to Aegon's 3,000 men then enter Duskendale 4,000 strong. +. Taken by surprise and unprepared Duskendale fell +. Arlo has the ships at the harbour set afire, beheaded Gunthor Darklyn, and made most of his household knights submit to Aegon II. +. Aegon has taken note of Arlo and makes him Master of Ships to compete with the Blacks strength at sea.
The Battle of Rook's Rest:
+. Criston Cole moved forces and seiged Rook's Rest. Ordering the burning of fields, killing of smallfolk, and livestock. +. Aegon becomes seriously injured, Arlo provides 200 men after 800 are burned. Aemond becomes regent and Lord Walys Mooton is killed attempting to kill Sunfyre. +. The Battle Between Friends: Arlo Redwyne and Mehmet Rowan parlay. "Should I die, I'd rather it be a brother than an Andal. You'll take care of my family, yes?" "And you'll take care of mine." Arlo and Mehmet meet in single combat where Arlo deals a fatal blow with Mehmet dying in his arm. Because of the rules of war, these forces go their separate ways knowing that in the future they will meet again. 
The Battle of the Gullet (The Bloodiest Sea Battle of the Dance) 
+. Arlo and Lysene Admiral of the Triarchy Sharako Lohar take to the seas where Otto's dealings pay off.   +. Arlo captures legitimized bastard Targaryen Prince Valarr Waters and takes his ships along with a dragon's egg.   +. Scorpions are used and one of the Dragonseeds dragon dies.   +. Fire Ships are used to attack Spicetown and the town is sacked, the inhabitants butchered.
Over the next 4 years, Arlo serves as Master of Ships leading them to decisive sea victories. When Tyland Lannister returns to the Westerlands after the Sacking, Arlo Redwyne is made Hand of the King by Aemond Targaryen who is still serving as Regent. As Hand of the King, Arlo manages to bring in more houses of the Old Way to their cause because trust and community, still there were many who refused. 
While many of the Houses of the Old Way understood the Rhoynish rules of single combat, there were still some who held grudges against the Lord who killed Mehmet Rowan for a Valyrian. While Aegon's health rises and falls, Aemond is being shaped and guided by Arlo who has began working with those around him on making it so Aemond is King should Aegon die. Arlo is the one who starts the work on arranging Jaehaerys' place in the Starry Sept. 
Death of the The Hand:
+. In year 9 of the war, there is another great sea battle, Arlo taking the helm of his ship he went on to face the Blackbars and others who were stopping trade and attacking merchants. +. Arlo rams Tirius' ship, unknowiningly, and the young Lord jumps on the deck. They come face to face. Tirius is young, full of rage, and fury. And the moment he sees Arlo tears stream down his face.
"You killed my father." "And he would have slain me."  "One of us will die this day, my lord." "Then let my life end in the hands of a brothers son."   After fighting that seems to last forever Tirius deals the killing blow, regreting his actions as Arlo falls.      "Wait, wait." 
+. Going through great lengths, his body is saved and Tirius travels to the Arbor to return his bones to Lucrezia Aicha, the new Lady of the Arbor, along with his sword and armor.
