History

Born in the summer of 398AC, Alyn never knew his mother, seeing as she died giving birth to him. Despite his constant attempts to do his father proud, the old man never seemed to be impressed with anything Alyn ever did, constantly depressed and angry about the death of his wife, taking his rage out on the boy through his words and actions.

Even with him trying to be kind to his father, his father would not show any kindness to him. Even up to his death when Alyn was ten, in 408AC. The house blazed orange and red and yellow, thick smoke eventually knocking the boy unconscious, a piece of wood breaking his arm. Luckily for him, two older knight, Ser Alester Ashford and Ser Leyton Oakheart, found the boy, taking him back to the village of Atranta, and offering him the things he never had - a kind ear to listen to and a shoulder to cry on. A warm bed - a home.

Then, after he had recovered, Alester offered him a chance to squire - something the boy couldn’t turn down. Alester had developed a friendship with the boy, comforting him along with Leyton throughout those first days and weeks after they had taken him to Highgarden. During this time he learned the art of axeplay and dodging, of armor and warfare. Eventually, after six long years, he would have his chance to prove himself.

A group of thieves and bandits had been harassing another nearby village, and Alyn asked Alester if they could look into it. Reluctantly, he agreed, and when Alester was wounded in the battle, Alyn carried him back to the village after the bandits had been killed. In return for saving his life, at 17, Alyn was knighted.
