Synopsis

Victarion has left the defense of Moat Cailin to Ralf Kenning, and sailed the Iron Fleet to Old Wyk for the kingsmoot. When the fleet arrives, Victarion has them blockade Euron's Silence. The first to greet him on shore is Aeron, and later that night the priest is at his side for the feast. Several captains pledge their voice to Victarion's claim, but Lord Blacktyde seeks a king who will end the wars, saying,

"Balon was mad, Aeron is madder, and Euron is maddest of them all."

Soon, the Captain finds his niece, advising her not to lay forth a claim, because a woman has no place ruling the ironborn. But their chat is interrupted by the arrival of Euron. Victarion notes Euron does seem to have aged in the almost three years that he has been gone. Aeron confronts Euron with the accusation that "no godless man may sit the Seastone Chair", but Euron cows his brother into leaving the hall. Asha then accuses her uncle of the death of her father, but Euron denies he had anything to do with it. When a fight nearly breaks out between Asha and one of Euron's men, Victarion steps in and demands that Euron leave. After his departure, Victarion and his niece walk outside, and Asha asks why Euron had been banished by her father, for he had refused to ever speak of it. Victarion eventually tells her that Euron impregnated Victarion's wife. Victarion had wanted to kill his brother but Balon forbid him and sent Euron to exile. Later Victarion killed his wife with his own hands. Asha offers to set aside her claim if Victarion will name her his Hand and end the war, but the Iron Captain will have none of it. Asha replies that she then will claim the throne.
