House Harlaw of Grey Garden

With the driftwood throne of Pyke left empty, the banners of the rival claimants begin moving across the islands in search of support. Asha Greyjoy notices Ser Harras Harlaw's standard raised over Ten Towers, a sign that the knight has thrown in with her cause.

The same banner turns up weeks later at Old Wyk, at the gathering called to decide who wears the crown of salt and rock. There Harras stands among the champions Asha presents before the assembled captains, and his uncle Aeron, priest of the Drowned God, singles him out in the crowd.

While the islands argue over the succession, the war does not wait. Harras takes part in the landing on the Shield Islands, where he plants his standard before the gates of Grimston, seat of House Grimm on Greyshield.

By the account that reaches Victarion Greyjoy through a kinsman, Harras cuts down seven defenders there on his own. The septon of Grimston reads the feat as a sign from the gods and yields the castle without further resistance.

The new king of the Iron Islands, Euron Greyjoy, rewards the victory by naming Harras lord of Greyshield, a title his branch of House Harlaw adds to those it already holds.
