Spoilers
Ser Arys Oakheart was made sworn shield to Princess Myrcella Baratheon during her time at Sunspear as a “guest” of Prince Doran Martell during her betrothal to Prince Trystane. He was seduced by Princess Arianne Martell and drawn into her plot to crown Myrcella Baratheon, but the plot failed with most of the conspirators captured. Ser Arys charged at Prince Doran’s men but was killed by Areo Hotah, captain of the guard.
Lady Arwyn was among those lords and ladies with King Renly at Bitterbridge and her forces were with the the combined Tyrell and Lannister army at the Blackwater.
