Castle Cerwyn
On this tab
Castle Cerwyn is the seat of House Cerwyn, a northern stronghold set on the western branch of the White Knife, half a day's ride from Winterfell.
Its place in the story lies less in its stones than in the ravens that pass through it: during the years of war, the castle serves as a relay point for urgent messages travelling between the North and the rest of the realm.
Raven to Riverrun
Ser Rodrik Cassel, castellan of Winterfell, chooses Castle Cerwyn as the point from which to send a raven bound for Riverrun.
The message carries word that Bran and Rickon Stark are dead, and it is there, in the Tully castle, that Lady Catelyn receives it.

Plea from Castle Black
Later it is Castle Cerwyn that receives a plea for help: Maester Aemon, from Castle Black, sends a raven asking for men to hold against the coming wildling attack.
