(PoV Ser Lyn corbray )
Lyn corbray the knight of the main gate . haha ... A fine title indeed , though not as significant as knight of the Boody Gate . But it's will do just fine .
My name will be spread throughout the seven kingdoms . All I have do is hold the gate and and the city and buy at least two weeks of time and crown will be here with reinforcement .
My family have achieved many things throughout our history .
House Corbray of Heart's Home is a noble house from Heart's Home in the Vale of Arryn. It is an old but poor house. The ancestral Valyrian steel longsword of the Corbrays is Lady Forlorn.
We blazon our arms with three black ravens in flight holding three red hearts, on white.
We Corbrays were an Andal house during the coming of the Andals to Westeros. Corwyn Corbray conquered the Fingers by defeating Houses Brightstone and Shell, claiming for himself the title of Lord of the Five Fingers. When the First Men began to unite against the Andals, King Robar II Royce slew Qyle Corbray, King of the Fingers. The Corbrays claim that Ser Jaime Corbray killed Robar in the Battle of the Seven Stars.[3]
During the reign of King Aegon I Targaryen, his sister-wife, Queen Rhaenys Targaryen, arranged a betrothal between a Corbray and one of the triplet daughters born to the Evenstar of Tarth.Ser Gawen Corbray was chosen by Aegon's other queen, Visenya Targaryen, as master-at-arms for her son, Prince Maegor, on Dragonstone. On account of his reputation as being one of the deadliest knights in the Seven Kingdoms in his day.
Lord Qarl Corbray declared for Prince Aegon the Uncrowned in a conflict against his uncle, King Maegor I Targaryen. During the campaign, Aegon found himself surrounded by three armies loyal to Maegor. Lord Corbray advised Aegon to attack his foes separately before they could join their forces, but Aegon refused and continued his march towards King's Landing. Ultimately, the armies faced each other near the Gods Eye. When Aegon and his dragon, Quicksilver, were killed by Maegor atop Balerion, the Battle Beneath the Gods Eye was lost for Aegon's supporters. Lord Qarl was able to kill Ser Davos Darklyn of the Kingsguard with Lady Forlorn, however, and he survived the battle. The Corbrays were pardoned by King Maegor, but they were stripped of some lands and titles and were forced to give up hostages.
When Prince Jaehaerys Targaryen took the Iron Throne in 48 AC after Maegor's death, he arrested the Commander of the City Watch and named Qarl in his stead. The following year, Qarl was one of the lords who represented of the Vale of Arryn at the Golden Wedding.
Jaehaerys's mother and regent, Queen Alyssa Velaryon, wanted to reward the lords who had declared for Aegon the Uncrowned by choosing a bride for Jaehaerys amongst their kin. We Corbrays were one of the Houses considered by Alyssa. This idea never came to fruition, however, but Qarl remained a staunch supporter of the Queen Regent. When Lord Rogar Baratheon refused his dismissal by Alyssa from the office of Hand of the King, Qarl drew Lady Forlorn, prompting Rogar to concede. Qarl also hid Princess Aerea Targaryen under Alyssa's orders to keep Rogar's brother, Ser Ronnal Baratheon, from taking her to Storm's End with the departing Baratheon household. In 58 AC, Lord Qarl advised Jaehaerys against naming Barth his new Hand due to the septon's humble origin. The following year, the deaths of Qarl and many his gold cloaks from the Shivers provoked a short period of chaos in the streets of King's Landing. Qarl was eventually replaced at the head of the City Watch by Ser Robert Redwyne.
Second Century
During the Dance of the Dragons, We Corbrays followed our liege lord, Lady Jeyne Arryn, and supported Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen and the blacks. Towards the end of the war, Lord Leowyn Corbray and his younger brother, Ser Corwyn Corbray, were entrusted by Jeyne to lead ten thousand men descending from the Vale towards King's Landing.The Corbray brothers, along with Lady Jeyne and the Lads, took control of the city from Cregan Stark, Lord of Winterfell, but let him preside over the trials of those suspected of poisoning the late king, Aegon II Targaryen.
Once the trials were dealt with and the war over, a council of regents was created to aid the young Aegon III Targaryen. Lord Leowyn was named Protector of the Realm, but Aegon's Hand, Ser Tyland Lannister, quickly achieved an unspoken dominance over Leowyn, gathering more power to himself as time passed. When the matter of Aegon's succession was brought up to the council, Leowyn favored Aegon's half-sister, Princess Rhaena Targaryen, over her older wilder twin, Princess Baela Targaryen. As the regents did not desire Baela to produce an heir with her husband, Lord Alyn Velaryon, they quickly married Rhaena off to the man she chose, Corwyn Corbray.
Lord Leowyn died of the Winter Fever in 133 AC, alongside his mistress and several of his servants.He was succeeded as Lord of Heart's Home by his son, Quenton Corbray. The title of Protector of the Realm was passed on Lord Unwin Peake, Aegon's Hand after the death of Ser Tyland.
The following year, Ser Corwyn was named a regent after Lord Manfryd Mooton died of age and illness.The year 134 AC also marked the death of Lady Jeyne Arryn and the start of a war of succession in the Vale. Corwyn was dispatched to settle the matter, but he was killed by a crossbowman at Runestone when he came to confront Lord Gunthor Royce, who supported Ser Arnold Arryn instead of Jeyne's chosen heir, Ser Joffrey Arryn. Following the death of his uncle, Lord Quenton declared for Joffrey, who was eventually installed as Lord of the Eyrie. Lord Quenton came to King's Landing in 136 AC to attend the Great Council, in which new regents were chosen for Aegon III.
During the First Blackfyre Rebellion, Ser Gwayne Corbray of the Kingsguard was part of the loyalist forces that fought Daemon Blackfyre at the Battle of the Redgrass Field. They dueled for nearly an hour, their Valyrian steel swords Blackfyre and Lady Forlorn clashing loudly. At last, Blackfyre struck Gwayne's helm and left him blind and bleeding. Daemon dismounted to tend to his foe and ordered Redtusk to carry Gwayne back to the maesters for healing, an action that afterwards some considered decisive, since it gave the Raven's Teeth enough time to find a good position to fire the arrows that killed Daemon.
Now in a different place and a different time I stand against another Rebellion . An opportunity to prove myself to my father that I'm one of the great knight of my era .
Then someone distrupt my thoughts then I looked at him and ask " what is it ?"
" um my Lord the enemy's are coming " he answered.
Well there fast ! if I believe the current numbers of there troops is not more Nine thousand or less. But we have nearly six thousand and a Wall . And enough provisions for at least Two months . And what my Maester thought me that you need Three times greater number to attack a defensive position .
So I believe we have all the advantage against our enemy .
Then I watched the enemy approaching with a battering and rest of them stayed out of the archer's range .
" Archer's shoot them down use fire arrows on that giant ram " they did as ordered but I could see that it's not having any effect on .
" Stop that won't work it's wet . The enemy's are smart , prepare the oils ." hmm if look closer that battering rams design is very different . And I could see that it has lots of protection from all sides . We need to destroy the thing fast , if the Gate is broken then we are doomed .
Now that I think about it ! our forces are spread throughout the walls and I could see that the bulk of there forces are just waiting .
"Use everything on that thing Men . destroy it destroy it . " Not good we should have dig a big moat surround the gate . The gate won't stand against a beast like that we must kill the
soldiers that operating it . Then I heard a loud bang on the gate and the whole area is shaking like earthquakes . Not good at this rate the gate will fall . I need to inform lord Graftons .
"Ser halberd your in command now, I need the knights to destroy that thing . " I spoke to my nearest subordinate.
And he replied "Good luck Ser and may the warriors blessing be with you "
I gave him a nod and hurriedly ran to my horse . I need to meet with lord Graftons and his household knights will be enough to do the Job .
( AN) Sorry for the delay guys . It's because I had a severe stomach pain .
