AFfC 18: The Iron Captain 286

Hopeful heir to the Seastone Chair of the Iron Islands Victarion goes to the Kingsmoot. We learn that Moat Cailin has been left in command of someone called Ralf Kenning. Probably it would be easier to take now than ever, but I'm not sure the Lannisters or Stannis are aware of this. Asha tries to get Victarion to let her be Hand in return for support, but he doesn't go for it because she wants to just live happily in the islands and not conquer anything.

We also lear that Victarion has had a bit of trouble with wives and his brother Euron, who got his wife pregnant then made him kill her. Is that worse than what GREGOR did to the Hound? Westerosi nobles really do have terrible families, have I said that before?

Asha wins the chapter when Jon Myre complains that her father let her think she was a man. "Your father made the same mistake with you."
