Griffin's Roost is the seat of House Connington. It is a castle located in the Stormlands.[1]
History
During Robert's Rebellion, Lord Jon Connington was raised to the position of Hand of the King to Aerys II. After his failure at the Battle of the Bells, Lord Jon was stripped of his titles and Griffin's Roost was taken by the crown. However, Robert Baratheon unseated Aerys II and claimed the throne. Lord Jon's cousin had fought for Robert during the rebellion and was awarded the castle, but the better part of the lands and all the gold that Lord Jon had forfeited to the crown were kept by Robert.[2]
