Recent Events

A Clash of Kings

Ser Jon is amongst the nobles who declare for Renly Baratheon and is present beneath the walls of Bitterbridge when Lady Catelyn Tully arrives.[1] When the parley between the brothers Renly and Stannis Baratheon breaks down and battle seems imminent, Jon offers to lead the van into battle.[2]

Jon goes over to Stannis's forces after Renly's death because he is in Stannis's company at the siege of Storm's End. The castle's castellan, Ser Cortnay Penrose, proposes to settle the siege with single combat. Jon advises Stannis to take him up on the offer. He himself is prepared to take the challenge, although he admits that he is not as good as Lord Bryce Caron or Ser Guyard Morrigen.[3]

Jon fights for Stannis at the battle of the Blackwater and is captured by Lothor Brune. He bends the knee to King Joffrey I.[4]

A Feast for Crows

Jon's wife, Janna Tyrell, hawks with Margaery Tyrell in King's Landing.[5]
