Although rich and glorious, it did not have self-rule and was instead governed by men and women sent from Valyria to rule in the name of the Freehold - thus it is not counted among the Free Cities.[3] Mantarys remained inhabited after the Doom of Valyria, but its people are said to be twisted and monstrous.[4]

Instead, the city agrees to an alliance with Yunkai.[6]
Tyrion Lannister sees a two-headed slave girl out of Mantarys in Yezzan zo Qaggaz's grotesquerie.[7]
