Lysa Farman
Lysa Farman was one of the five daughters of Lord Farman, ruler of Faircastle and lord of Fair Isle during the Dance of the Dragons. Her fate was shaped by the ironborn conquest of the island under Dalton Greyjoy, who took her and several of her sisters as salt wives.

Lysa grew up as a daughter of Lord Farman, who ruled Fair Isle from Faircastle when the Dance of the Dragons broke out. Dalton Greyjoy's fleet landed on the island and seized it; Greyjoy himself chose Lysa and three of her sisters as his salt wives, while handing another sister over to his brother Veron.

Salt widow

By 133, Lysa's family had been decimated: her father and two of her sisters were already dead. Among the other women Greyjoy had taken was one named Tess, who ended her lord's life by cutting his throat; with Dalton's death, all his salt wives, Lysa among them, suddenly became widows.
That widowhood did not last long. Two ironborn, Alester Wynch and Gunthor Goodbrother, fought over the right to claim her; Gunthor prevailed, killed Alester, and took Lysa as his own salt wife.
