The rule the rivers refused
Books only
After the Battle of the Six Kings, Arlan III considered returning the rule of the Riverlands to House Blackwood, but he did not trust Lord Roderick's brothers, nor his heir, an eight-year-old boy.
He proposed instead that Shiera and Durrandon himself should rule, but the river lords rejected the idea. Faced with their refusal, Arlan chose to conquer the riverlands and add them to the Storm Kingdom.
