All is not well in the Vale. Already overseen by a frail man after the events of Robert’s Rebellion, the death of Jon Arryn catapulted the easternmost of the Seven Kingdoms into tense territory. Lysa Arryn bade her bannermen stand idle during the War of the Five Kings, reluctant to involve her men and overprotective of her son, but reckoning came in the form of Petyr Baelish. Now, Littlefinger holds the Vale, and his secret pawn is Sansa Stark, the eldest daughter of the North. While sickly little Robert Arryn is still the heir to his father’s domain, Littlefinger seeks out another, stronger youth with whom he can entrench Sansa and further spin his schemes. This man is Harrold Hardyng. Hello everyone, and welcome back to Exploring Fiction.
