afterthetrident:

Seventeen years ago, Robert Baratheon rose up in rebellion against the Mad King, Aerys Targaryen.  As the great houses of Westeros took sides and war raged across the Seven Kingdoms, victory in either direction seemed uncertain…until Prince Rhaegar slew the usurper in the Battle of the Trident.
 
After the Trident, Rhaegar marched south to King’s Landing, where he found his father dead and the capital city in ruins.  House Lannister’s claims of triumph would not last long, however.  With a show of force that would become the stuff of songs, Rhaegar took back King’s Landing and claimed his rightful title as ruler of the Iron Throne.  
 
Since then, under the rule of King Rhaegar, the First of His Name, Westeros has enjoyed relative peace.  Yet under the surface, dissent bubbles, for more than one noble House has suffered losses as a result of the Rebellion.  War has passed, but war will come again.  It’s only a matter of time.
