House Ambrose
On this tab
House Ambrose is a minor house of the Reach, sworn to House Tyrell, bearing a field of gold sown with red ants and the words Never Resting.
With no seat recorded, the house appears in the books tied to the levies its overlords bring to war, marching first for Renly Baratheon's cause and later under Randyll Tarly's command.

War of the Five Kings
Support for Renly
When the War of the Five Kings breaks out, House Ambrose stands with the Tyrells, its overlords, and backs Renly Baratheon's claim to the Iron Throne.
After Renly's death, its men do not scatter: they march with the combined Tyrell-Lannister host to the Battle of the Blackwater.

Campaign in the Crownlands
After the triumph at the Blackwater, Ambrose's men join Lord Randyll Tarly's column, sent to put down what remains of resistance in the Crownlands.
Brienne of Tarth, further along the road, recognizes among the clothes stripped from the dead of the Battle of Duskendale more than one garment stitched with the red ants of House Ambrose.
