Greywater Watch

On this tab

Greywater Watch is the seat of House Reed, built on one of the drifting islands scattered through the swamps of the Neck. No army sent to find it has ever succeeded, and that quality makes the castle a quiet place to turn to when war presses in on the North.

House Reed

Location and Defense

The castle stands on one of the shifting islands of the mire, and its position moves enough that no map can pin it down for certain. That is why no ravens reach it, no maester waits there to receive them, and no knights stand guard at its gates.

That same elusiveness has protected the Reeds for generations. River kings have sent troops against Greywater Watch more than once, and so have the Freys; none of those armies ever set foot inside the castle.

The physical world

Esta es la razón por la que no llegan los cuervos y no hay maestres en el castillo, así como tampoco caballeros o maestros de armas.
