History
Lord Follard was part of Lord Manfryd Mooton's diplomatic mission to Braavos in 133 AC. While Manfryd treated with the Sealord of Braavos, Lords Cressey and Follard spread bribes among the Braavosi keyholders, magisters, and other notables. Rather than return to Westeros, Lord Follard chose to remain in Braavos with a courtesan he had become enamored with.[3]
