House Gargalen of Salt Shore

Casa Gargalen de Costa Salada

House Gargalen of Salt Shore is a noble house of Dorne, sworn to House Martell, holding the stretch of coastline that gives it its name. Under a banner bearing a red cockatrice with a black serpent in its beak, its lords have stood beside the Dornish princes through some of the tensest passages in Dorne's dealings with the rest of the Seven Kingdoms.

Lord Tremond Gargalen traveled to King's Landing among the lords who accompanied Prince Oberyn Martell to King Joffrey Baratheon's wedding. The old grudge between Dornishmen and men of the Reach was quick to surface: by a cauldron-seller's stall in Flea Bottom, an argument turned into a brawl.

A Tyrell soldier was killed in the fight, and two of Lord Gargalen's men were left with severe burns.
