Crag Rock City is located in the north of Kaiyan City, about 300 miles away from Kaiyan City, and it is also a seaside city.
The Crest of the Westerling family is six white shells on yellow sand. The six shells are arranged in a triangular pattern, with one in the front, two in the second row, and three in the third row.
The sand shells represent the location of Rock Castle, on the shores of the Sunset Sea.
The motto of the House of Westerling is 'Nothing is honorable'.
Westerling is a famous family with a long history in the West, they are the descendants of their ancestors, and their blood is ancient and noble. However, with the inheritance of generations of Westerlings, the gold and silver mines in their territories were exhausted early, and their fiefdoms were oppressed by the powerful nobles around them. Passed down to Gavin Westerling's generation, in addition to the ancient bloodline of the family can also bring some vanity and glory to the family, the strength of the family has completely declined.
For generations, they have had to rely on seafood rather than gold and silver.
Beyond the territory of Crag Rock is a large area rich in gold, but it has nothing to do with the Westerlings. To this day, the land of gold-rich treasures was deserted, and they had two names that terrified even the nobles of the West: Casterme City and Tabek Hall.
The fief of the Reyes family, the most powerful vassals in the West, is Casterme, and the domain of the great nobles Tabek family is in Tabek Hall. The Reyes family and the Tabek family are getting stronger day by day because of the too many and rich gold mines in their family territory, and they are gradually comparable in strength to the lord Lannisters. Because of Duke Tywin's cowardly father, the Reyes family and the Tarbek family thought that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, and never took the Lannisters seriously.
The two great families, who did not know the height of the sky, finally seriously offended the Lannisters, so in the year 261 of Aegon, the nineteen-year-old Tywin Nister led thousands of warriors to completely eradicate the two families.
All the men, women, and children of the two families were killed, and no chickens and dogs remained. In order to intimidate the other nobles in the West, Casterme City and Tabek Hall are still deserted, and Tywin has not yet divided Castelme City and Tabek Hall to any of his nobles.
The famous song of the Seven Kingdoms, 'The Rainy Season of Castelme', is derived from this campaign.
When Tywin was unable to breach the underground city of Casterme, he dug a canal and carried out a flood attack, drowning everyone in Castelme, which is the meaning of the song Rainy Season.
Outside the Westerling family are Castelme City and Tarbek Hall, which can be described as full of gold, but the family does not dare to take it, watching the gold everywhere and then the family decays year by year.

A year ago, Gregor had seen Jenny Westerling, the eldest lady of the Westerling family, in Castle Rock City.
At that time, her beauty and demeanor shocked Kaiyan City.
The time-traveling Gregor knows that Jenny Westerling's beauty is far more beautiful than the actors in the TV series.
Jenny came to Castle Rock with her father, Earl Gavin Westerling, and his father, Gavin Westerling, brought his eldest daughter to the Lannisters with confidence.
Tywin Lannister has a younger brother named Kaivon Lannister, who has been Tywin's assistant and admirer. Kevon Lannister had a son named Ranthel Lannister, born in the same year as Jenny Westerling, both born in the year 283 of Aegon Calendar.
Lancel was handsome, worked in the palace, and was the personal sommelier of King Robert Baratheon. Gregor knew that Lancel was the handsome boy in the TV series who stood next to Robert with a flask at all times.
Jane was born beautiful and graceful, but she was carefully trained by the Westerling family to be even more elegant and talented. The purpose of the eldest daughter cultivated by Count Gavin's family with great effort is to hope that the family can rely on her to climb to the great nobility, and from then on revive the prosperity of the family through the wealth of the daughter.
However, Kevon Lannister is a secular aristocrat who does not take talent but only wealth, which is very similar to Tywin Lannister, Jane's beauty and talent are impeccable, but the Westerling family is too poor, the family is too declining, it is easy to agree to this family business, and the subsequent Earl of Gavin is bound to continue to ask the Lannister family for 'help' because of this family business.
The more money he gets, the more stingy he gets, Kevon Lannister rejects the business.
This discredited Earl Gavin, and in the face of the powerful Lannister family, Earl Gavin had no choice but to return to his Crag City with his eldest daughter Jenny.
At the same time as the news of Count Gavin's failed marriage to the Lannister family spread, Jane Westerling's beauty and elegance also spread simultaneously in the West, and the nobles of the Westside went to the door to propose, but these nobles could not get into the eyes of Count Gavin, and were all rejected by Count Gavin.
Jenny Westerling is sixteen years old, unmarried, not engaged, and already an older girl in this world.
The reason why Jane is 'older' and has no marriage partner is very simple, the Westerling family is an ancient and noble nobleman, and the ordinary nobleman Garvin Westerling Earl looks down on it, but the rich nobles who really have very strong strength don't look down on the Jane Westerling family too poor.

Sir Gregor Clegane, as the number one villain in the West and the number one villain in the Seven Kingdoms, wants to marry Jane Westerling, but in fact it is purely an idiot's dream.
That's absolutely impossible!
With Count Gavin's heart being higher than heaven and life thinner than paper, it is estimated that he was already so angry that he fainted when he heard about this family business.
Although the centurions, knights, and knights in the school yard thought that Gregor proposed a marriage to Westerling was too ridiculous, none of them dared to laugh out loud.
Duke Tywin said, "Sir Gregor, since you have begun to raise your own family soldiers, then, I grant you permission to sell snow salt openly in the West, but not to evade taxes. As for marriages, I will keep an eye out for the right women of other nobles for you. ”
The operation of salt in the Seven Kingdoms was only qualified by the Grand Duke and the King.
The salt in this world is like gold to the average family.
On this continent, salt was monopolized by the Grand Dukes and Kings. Although King Robert's laws were lax and did not deal with the sale of illicit salt, turning a blind eye to the proliferation of illicit salt, it is unbelievable that such a right to operate salt could be openly and legally given to a baron.
The centurions, knights, knights, soldiers, and servants in the colonel's yard thought they had misheard.
Fellow Potter was completely stunned.
"No, Lord Duke, I only need to marry Jane Westerling, and I have no interest in any other reward. Gray said decisively.
He was always impolite in his speech, and he was a vulgar man, and Lord Tywin was not used to seeing it. But Gregor was the only one who dared to speak so loudly in front of Duke Tywin.
