History
During the Battle of the Trident, Lord Corbray was wounded. Lyonel carried his father back to the maesters in the rear, while his younger brother, Ser Lyn Corbray, grabbed their father's sword Lady Forlorn and led a charge against the Dornishmen. When Lord Corbray died, Lyonel inherited the titles and lands while Ser Lyn received the sword Lady Forlorn. Lyonel felt he was cheated of his birthright.[1]
