Jorah Mormont's wedding portrait with his second wife, Lady Lynesse Hightower

---

"To celebrate his victory (-over the Greyjoys), Robert ordained that a tourney should be held outside Lannisport. It was there I saw Lynesse, a maid half my age.

The first time I beheld her, I thought she was a goddess come to earth, the Maid herself made flesh. Her birth was far above my own. She was the youngest daughter of Lord Leyton Hightower of Oldtown. 

I crowned Lynesse queen of love and beauty, and that very night went to her father and asked for her hand. I was drunk, as much on glory as on wine. By rights I should have gotten a contemptuous refusal, but Lord Leyton accepted my offer. We were married there in Lannisport, and for a fortnight I was the happiest man in the wide world."

-Jorah, ACOK

Ser Jorah Mormont, Jorah the Andal, Ser Bezoar. "The common people pray for rain, healthy children and a summer that never ends. It is no matter to them if the high lords play their game of thrones, so long as they are left in peace. They never are." A wise quote for a complicated character. One gets the feeling that the author's opinion on Jorah soured along with that of the audience. He goes through hell in the back half of the series, and we're left to wonder if he deserves it. If anyone does. Whether or not he's learned anything from his tribulations is the real question.

bear island, the north

— PERHAPS THERE SHOULD BE SOMEONE OUT THERE TO TELL THEM THE TRUTH. Perhaps little girls should have a little guardian angel whispering in their ear; don't get your hopes up. Not too high. For hope is the quickest path to heartbreak.

When Nymeria Mormont was born, her father was the first person to hold her. The first person to look into those big brown eyes she got from her mother, and her grandmother before her, and to fall in love with their sparkle. When she was five years old, he gifted her the horse she wanted. When she was seven years old, he let her have a bow.

When she was eleven years old, there were no gifts. No open arms. No apologies. No nothing. Only the sound of a little girl crying as she watched the ship that carried her father and mother far, far away.

Jorah Mormont was on the run from his Lord Warden of the North for selling men into slavery. And he left without the most valuable treasure he had, because he didn't believe there was a life across the Narrow Sea meant for a little girl.

Five months passed before Nymeria finally stopped waiting for the ship to return. In that time, she'd heard far too much about her father's crimes.

Her own people would look at her with scorn and scrutiny. They'd whisper behind her back... and sometimes to her face. She cried herself to sleep so often after being called an orphan, or a slave herself.

The worst insults, though, were the ones that were veiled out of fear. No one wanted to risk losing their fingers over insulting Lady Mormont's Dornish blood.

Everyone knew she was half Dornish, a gift from her mother. They pretended not to notice, but they found creative ways of pointing it out, picking it apart, levelling it against her. After all, northerners had never much liked outsiders.

She was twelve years old when the last family she had that didn't look down their nose at her for her father's dishonouring act finally summoned her away from the spiteful gazes and into a different world entirely.

Jeor Mormont knew that the Wall was no place for a woman, let alone a child. But his heart ached from missing his son, and his heart ached for the granddaughter he'd only ever met once before, the girl who didn't deserve to be hated for something she didn't do, and for blood she couldn't control.

I will father no children. That was his vow, but a ward? No vow forbade him a ward.

So Nymeria was twelve when her horse came to a halt inside the walls of Castle Black, and she gazed up in disbelief at the greatest structure ever built by men. The Lord Commander was waiting for her when she and her two guards dismounted, and he crouched down to offer her a smile.

"Hello Nymeria."

"Hello," she managed in a small voice.

"I'm here to help you, if you'll let me." He looked around. "No one hates people who commit crimes in this place. And no one will hate you for being your mother's daughter."

She nodded slowly.

"But," he warned. "This is a dangerous place. Do you think you're brave enough for that?"

"I'm not scared of wildlings and shadowcats," she told him, trying to sound as brave as she could.

He chuckled. "Of course you're not. But even inside this castle are dangerous people. If you want to stay, you have to do everything I say. And you have to be strong. If that's not what you want, you can go home to Bear Island. But if you can..." he leaned in closer to whisper to her. "I hear you're good with a bow."

"Not just a bow," she said with a fierce little frown. "Septa Lauraine says I'm getting too good with knives for her liking too."

He smiled. "Very good. Do you think you can show this bunch of soggy dogs how it's done?"

She looked around for a long moment before looking back at her grandfather. "Nobody cares about mother? That I look like her?"

"Nobody cares that you look like your mother, Nymeria," he assured her.

A moment passed... and then she gave a determined little nod. "Let's show them how it's done."

Game of Thrones 3D keychain designs 💅

In case you're not familiar with what I do, I'm also a merchmaker and used to make various merch of stuff I like :D I've been wanted to do GoT merch for years but was too afraid before because I didn't have the skills etc...

But not anymore!! 😼 So here's the designs I've been working on for a while. It was quite a challenge but I'm happy with the result, the backgrounds were the most challenging part lmao!!

I'll post pics of them when I'll have them and ready to be purchased on my shop! 🤸‍♀️ For now, hope you'll like the designs! (I also have some HotD charms that I'll post later, but did months before so I'm less happy with how they look lmao)

Ser Jorah Mormont, The Exile Knight, Jorah the Andal “My...Queen. My sword that was his is yours, Daenerys. My heart as well, that never belonged to your brother.” The bag of daddy issues and entitlement that is Jorah Mormont. That sword snapped off several times during painting, to the point that I honestly thought I’d lost it. In typical fashion, I found the blade in the bottom of a shotglass.
