Recent History

  • AL 295: Malthias Storm is taken on as a groom at SEATNAME. He quickly demonstrates ample skill with animals, including Maester Tygett's ravens. Rather than subject the aged maester to marching up and down stairs to reach the rookery constantly, Malthias is assigned to help tend to them when necessary, for which the old half-blind scholar is grateful.
    • Later that year, the quite old Maester Tygett finally succumbs to his old age and passes away at the ripe age of 92. Rather than find the coin to get another Maester for the House, Lord XXX appoints Lucias as his Steward, and extends Malthias' duties to continuing to tend to the rookery until the House can acquire a new Maester.
  • AL 296: Lord XXX Graben is on a hunt when he and his retainers are killed by a pack of rogue wolves when camping. Most of the men get out alive, but Lord XXX and Gilwood, the old Master of the Hunt, are killed. XXX becomes the new Lord Graben at age XX, and Malthias is made the new Master of the Hunt.
