In 289 AC Balon Greyjoy declared himself King of the Iron Islands.
It ended… badly.
Here’s how the Ironborn tried to rise, how Robert Baratheon crushed them, and how it set the stage for some MAJOR players in Westeros
(THREAD)
Who was Balon Greyjoy?
Lord of the Iron Islands. Head of House Greyjoy. Firm believer in the Old Way the ironborn tradition of raiding, reaving, and ruling by force.
He didn’t care for Robert Baratheon’s crown. So he tried to take his own.
