==History==
King [[Olyvar Yronwood]] repeatedly led incursions into the [[Stormlands]] during the reign of the [[Storm King]] [[Erich VII Durrandon]].{{Ref|TWOIAF| Andals in the Stormlands}}

King [[Yorick V Yronwood]] was the richest and most powerful dornish king when Princess [[Nymeria]] of [[Ny Sar]] and [[Rhoynar|her people]] arrived in Dorne, and subsequently allied with Lord [[Mors Martell]] of the [[Sandship]] and started [[Nymeria's War|conquering Dorne]]. In the ninth year of the war, Yorick personally killed Mors in the [[Third Battle of the Boneway]]. However, he was forced to submit to Nymeria two years later, and he was sent to the [[Wall]].{{Ref|TWOIAF| Ancient History: Ten Thousand Ships}}

Despite not being a royal house since Yorick submitted to the [[House Martell|Martells]] a millennia ago, the Lords of Yronwood still use the title of the [[Bloodroyal]].{{Ref|AFFC|Appendix}}

Lord [[Edgar Yronwood]] fought a duel to first blood against Prince [[Oberyn Martell]], after he was found [[Bedding|abed]] with Edgar's [[paramour]]. Both men took cuts. However, while Oberyn soon recovered, Lord Edgar's wounds festered and he died. Afterward it was rumored that Oberyn had [[poison]]ed his sword, gaining his nickname of "the Red Viper".{{Ref|ASOS|38}}<ref name="Winds">[[Arianne I (The Winds of Winter)]]</ref>

[[Ormond Yronwood]], Edgar's son, succeeded him after his death. Prince [[Doran Martell]], Oberyn's brother, send his son, Prince [[Trystane Martell]], as a [[ward]] to Yronwood as he thought that was the only solution Lord Ormond would accept to settle the blood debt between the two houses.{{Ref|AFFC|21}}

Eventually, Ormond died and was succeeded by his son, [[Anders Yronwood]]. Trystane remained a ward under Lord Anders and served him first as a [[page]] then as a [[squire]].{{Ref|AFFC|13}} Lord Anders [[knight]]ed Trystane when he was eighteen years old.{{Ref|AFFC|13}}{{Ref|AWOIAF| Quentyn Martell}}
