Chapter 0492 Dorne Martell

The Wraiths attacked from the north, and the mercenary soldiers on the other side of the Narrow Sea split into two routes, one to attack the territory of Storm's End and occupy Tas Island and Griffon's Castle, and all the way to Dragonstone Island to King's Landing.

Once Dragonstone fell, King's Landing was under the knife of the naval mercenary corps.

There was a big war in the north and south at the same time.

This kept Will and Robb in Winterfell busy all night as they deployed their troops.

Winterfell had a sleepless night.

In the face of the military situation, everything else is behind it.

All about the marriage, about Sansa, about Theon's removal of the wet-haired Eron, about Asha, all of them were ignored.

Before dawn, Maester Lewyn released all the ravens.

The southernmost Dorne territory on the continent has also received ravens from the north.

Dorne is the southernmost land mass of Westeros, surrounded on three sides by the sea and to the north by the Dorne Mountains, the border between the Tyrells and the Tyrells. But it is precisely because it is a dividing mountain, and there are many places, that the Dornes claim to have jurisdiction over the place, and the Tyrells also claim jurisdiction over it, which is the biggest reason why Dorne and the Tyrells have never been at odds.

So far, the two sides have only maintained a superficial peace, and the small friction between their lords has never stopped.

The Tyrells rebelled against Stannis I's dynasty, and the Dominion was a major threat.

The wars between the two sides, big and small, have hardly stopped.

When Eddard Stark led the coalition against House Tyrrell, the Dorne Lords also received an order from Stannis I to attack the Tyrells, but Eddard's coalition forces hit the Tyrells' bridge, and there was no news that the Dorne Army's troops were attacking the Tyrells from behind.

Dorne is also one of the Seven Kingdoms. Its capital is the city of Yangji. The Martell family, the rulers of Dorne, still refer to themselves as "Prince" and "Princess" in the manner of the Roynars.

The queen of the Roynard is called Namelia, the name of Arya's Icewolf. Because of her admiration for Namelia, Arya named her Icewolf Nameria.

Nemeria is the warrior queen of Royna, and the ruling city-state of Na Sasin is located on the other side of the Narrow Sea. More than a thousand years ago, in order to escape the enslavement of the powerful free city-state of Valyria, Nymeria led a refugee group of women and children into exile.

The city-state of Valyria (the birthplace of House Targaryen) was home to more than 500 dragons, and the dragon legions swept through the continent of Essos, razing many of the countries that resisted stubbornly.

Namelia led her people across the Narrow Sea with thousands of warships to Dorneland. At that time, there were seven kingdoms in Dorne, and Nellia defeated six kings and sent them to the Wall as night watchmen in golden shackles. In the end, there was one kingdom in Dorne that she had not yet conquered, and that was the mighty Martell family.

Neumelia fought against the Martell family for nine years, and after Morse Martell's death in the Third Battle of the Bones, Nesmelia became the sole leader. Eventually, the Martell family swore allegiance to her on her knees. Nymelia began to rule over the whole of Dorne in Halberd City, and married the patriarch of House Martell.

During her reign, she repelled two attacks by the Storm King (Storm's End) and one attack by the Riverband King Grayton Gardener (ancestor of House Tyrrell). She brought many Royna customs and laws to Dorne. After her death, her place was inherited by her and Morse's eldest daughter, not by her son.

This is the origin of the law that women inherit the throne in today's law of succession in Dorne.

*

In the entire continent of Westeros, only Dorne is a country where both men and women can legally inherit the throne. In King's Landing, the law, and the common people's habits, only men had the right to the throne legally.

During the three hundred years of the Targaryens' rule, it was also a 'patriarchal' ruling ideology, once Princess Rhaenyra had the right to inherit the throne because of the support of her father, but it also caused the division of the country, the royal family who supported her brother and the royal family who supported her sister Rhaenyra fought a bloody war, and the family civil war caused the sharp decline of the Targaryen family and the extinction of the dragon.

Dragons and dragons fight in the sky, and dragons exterminate dragons.

To the east of the border of Dorne are the Isles of the Stone Steps, where pirates gather. If you hire pirates as a naval fleet, you will never fail to go to the Stone Steps Islands, and of course it is also a place that can kill you at any time.

The southern seas of Dorne reach as far as the Midsummer Islands off the Summer Sea. The most famous girl's nest in King's Landing is Barbara in the Midsummer Isles, where the banished princes of the Midsummer Islands usually settle in King's Landing to seek refuge from the royal family of King's Landing.

The northernmost part of Dorne, also known as the Crimson Mountains, is named because of the reddish-brown color of the soil and rocks. The Crimson Mountains are the overland barrier that separates Dorne from the rest of the Seven Kingdoms.

There are only two main passages in the Crimson Mountains that lead directly to the outside: the Stone Road Pass and the Prince Pass. The Prince's Pass leads to Riverlands (the domain of the Tyrells), and the exit to the Bone Road is at Midsummer Hall (the private domain of the Targaryen Crown), which is now under the jurisdiction of the Baratheons of Storm's End.

Dorne is the hottest region of Westeros, it is stony, mountainous, arid and barren, and has the only desert on the continent. The fertile land in the area where the river flows, even in long summers, has enough rainwater and an abundant supply of underground water to ensure that Dorne is habitable. In the Dorne Desert, land water is worth as much as gold, and wells are guarded by noble soldiers.

The capital of the Donmartell family - Halberd City. Located on the southeast corner of Dorne, it is surrounded by the sea on three sides.

About twenty miles west of the city of Yang Halberd, there is a famous garden, which is the private garden of Prince Dorne, who is famous on the mainland, the Flowing Water Garden.

It was the harvest season in the middle of summer, and the oranges in the flowing water garden bent the branches, and from time to time, ripe oranges fell to the ground by themselves, making a slight crackling sound. The air is filled with the sweet smell of melons and fruits. On the other side, in the huge swimming pool, many children are having water fights.

Although there is abundant rain in Dorne, because of the great desert, water is still very precious, like gold. And the luxury of having the water around the garden and into the huge pool is something that only Prince Martell can do.

The full name of the Martell family is the Namelos Martell family. "Nameros" means "Moonblood of Namelia", and the city of Halberd is the center of their rule.

The coat of arms of the Martell family is a golden gun that runs through the red sun, the golden gun is the family crest of ancient Martell, the red sun symbolizes Loina, and the golden gun and the red sun are combined into one, symbolizing the union of the Narmelia and Martel families.

The motto of the Martells family is "indomitable."

On the edge of the huge pool stood several people, in front of them was a wheelchair in which sat the famous Prince Martell: Dawran Narmelos Martell, Prince of Dorne and Lord of Halberd City.

Doran has a distinctly Royana look, he has olive skin, dark eyes, and black hair. At his side, in addition to the captain of the guard with a huge battle axe, was his heroic brother Oberon Narmelos Martell.

Oberon has a name that resounded throughout the Seven Kingdoms: the Red Viper!
