Jeremy Norridge was a knight from House Norridge during the reign of King Aegon V Targaryen.[1]
Character
Jeremy was a dashing young knight.[1]
History
In his youth, Jeremy was a squire at Highgarden, where he befriended Prince Daeron Targaryen, third son of King Aegon V Targaryen. The two became constant companions, to the point that Daeron broke his betrothal to Olenna Redwyne in 246 AC.[1]
In 251 AC, Prince Daeron led an army against the rebels known as the Rat, the Hawk, and the Pig. Though they managed to quash the rebellion, Daeron was killed in battle, as was Jeremy, who died by his side.[1]
Recent Events
A Dance with Dragons
Ser Barristan Selmy recalls how all three sons of Aegon V Targaryen had married for love (interestingly including Daeron), and how their father had let them have their way.[2]
Quotes
All three of the sons of the fifth Aegon had wed for love in defiance of their father's wishes. And because that unlikely monarch had followed his heart when he chose his queen, he allowed his sons to have their way, making bitter enemies when he might have made fast friends.[2]
