History
The Sworn Sword
Around 211 AC, Lord Dagon and his ironborn raided along the Sunset Sea and the western coast of Westeros. They raided as far south as the Arbor, attacking and burning Little Dosk and carrying off half the wealth of Fair Isle and a hundred women. [2]
After Dagon's time the ironborn did not raid the Reach until 300 AC.[3][1]
The Mystery Knight
Lord Dagon sent ironborn north, where Lord Beron Stark was gathering swords to drive him off, and House Lannister was building ships to fight him on the seas. Due to the timeline of events Lord Tybolt Lannister was probably the Lord of House Lannister at that time.[4]
