Most Devout

Máximo Devoto

He was a younger brother of Lord Donnel Hightower, Lord of the Hightower under Jaehaerys I Targaryen, and like him became a septon, eventually taking a seat among the Most Devout. That seat came into play when his house sought to place one of its own at the head of the Faith of the Seven, after the death of the reigning Septon Supreme.

In this chapterJaehaerys I Targaryen

He was the younger brother of Lord Donnel Hightower, Lord of the Hightower under Jaehaerys I Targaryen. Like him, he had become a septon, and he sat among the Most Devout.

In the year 54, the death of the Septon Supreme brought King Jaehaerys I and Queen Alysanne to Oldtown, where they came to discuss the succession with Lord Donnel. Lord Donnel wanted the seat to go to a man of his own blood: his family counted nine septons, four of whom — including his younger brother — belonged to the Most Devout. The king raised no objection to a Hightower taking the office, so long as he upheld the Doctrine of Exceptionalism, and the agreement was sealed with a feast. In the end it was the aged septon Alfyn who was raised up as the new Septon Supreme.
