Faircastle

The seat of House Farman on Fair Isle, whose shores shelter the western coast.

The fuller tale

Faircastle rules Fair Isle, the long green island that shelters the Westerlands’ coast — a Farman seat with white towers, good harbors, and a history of watching other people’s wars sail past. Its waters hold the family ghost of the Greyjoy Rebellion: off Fair Isle the Iron Fleet was smashed and the krakens’ war effectively broken, one of those engagements the lions still toast and the ironborn still owe. The Farmans themselves keep ships, keep to their island, and keep out of the songs — on the west coast, that passes for wisdom.

The fallen of this place — if any, they are named here. Spoilers.

No death the chronicle records has come to this ground — or none the maesters have set down.
