General Information

The only members of the house to appear are Lord Willum and his two sons, Josua and Elyas.

The arms and name of the house, as well as the names of Lord Willum’s sons, have been confirmed by the author to be a nod to Tad Williams and his fantasy trilogy, Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn.

Spoilers

Having followed King Renly until his death, they fought under King Stannis’s banner at the Blackwater and either changed sides in the course of the battle or were captured during Stannis’s disasterous defeat. All three were made to swear fealty to King Joffrey.
