Tyland Lannister

Jason's twin and the smarter ledger: master of ships, then of coin ÔÇö the man who quietly quartered the crown's gold so no one claimant could seize it all. Wars are won by such bookkeeping.

A soul of House Lannister, born at Casterly Rock, sworn to The Greens ÔÇö the King's Party.

The fuller tale

Season Two

In The Queen Who Ever Was ÔÇö Wins a fleet with statecraft and a mud-wrestling match. In Essos, Tyland Lannister wins the Triarchy's ninety ships for the greens ÔÇö Admiral Lohar's fleet will sail to break the blockade.

Where they stand. The Stepstones.

How it ends for them

The chronicle records no death for this soul ÔÇö they are living when the tale leaves them, or their ending is a page the maesters have yet to turn.

Their chapters, book by book

Where the page and the screen part

Tyland's financial maneuvering is covered in far greater specific detail in Fire & Blood than in the show's currently aired seasons, which have not yet reached the stage of the war where his stewardship of the treasury becomes narratively central.

Their journey

Where the two tellings send them to the same place the road runs whole; where they part, the screen keeps the left and the books the right.
