Lychester
On this tab
Lychester is a minor castle in the Riverlands, seat of a house sworn to the Baelish of Harrenhal.
What is known of its history comes down to two widely separated moments: an uprising against the Iron Throne in the early years of the Targaryen dynasty, and, much later, its banners turning up at a siege of Riverrun.
Visenya's Punishment
When the Faith of the Seven rose against the Iron Throne, House Lychester took its side, alongside other Riverlands houses.
The punishment came from the sky: the widowed queen Visenya Targaryen swept through the region's rebel settlements astride Vhagar, and Lychester's seat was among those burned.

Siege of Riverrun
Centuries later, House Lychester's cock's foot resurfaces among the troops gathered by Ser Daven Lannister during the siege of Riverrun.

What we are not sure about
Spanish nameWe worked it out
The Spanish name is the atlas’s own reviewed translation, not the one in the published Gigamesh edition, which does not fix it.
