Oh, the tales that are told of the Kraedmyr. Madmen tucked into a mist-haunted valley of the mountains overlooking the Marchwater, their legacy is writ with madness and villainy. The smallfolk of the Marchwater Vale speak in whispers of how many of their villages are all but ghost-towns, with few people to work the fields. Despite this, the Kraedmyrs are quite wealthy, and with good reason - the silver mines of House Kraedmyr are rich and have continued to pour silver and the occasional batch of gemstones out of their misty valley for generations.
The smallfolk tell all manner of stories about the Kraedmyr, stories of generational insanity, worship of demons or vile blood-thirsty practices dedicated to the Old Gods of Westeros. Even now, they say that the Lady Orisa Kraedmyr, the Widow of Gryphmont, stays unnaturally young and beautiful by bathing in the blood of peasant girls. It is said that Gryphmont is a massive old castle with extensive catacombs beneath it, is old and run-down, with entire sections of the crumbling spired castle abandoned to dust, spider webs and the ghosts of the past.
Plenty of folk, of course, attribute these stories to simple jealousy of House Kraedmyr's fabulous wealth. In possession of the largest silver and gemstone mines in the Stormlands, the Kraedmyrs are not above ostentation - indeed, some suggest that it is second nature to them, growing up as they do surrounded by their familial riches.
