Re: aSoIaF Trivia Game

I'd have been quicker, but someone came to the desk and demanded my attention!

Okay, here's a slightly more involved one. Identify the families from their castles, keeps, halls, and other places of residence (there's one each from the nine major regions):

Nightsong
Driftmark
Torrhen's Square
Wayfarer's Rest
Ninestars
The Crag
Ashford
Starfall
Lordsport

As before, all nine correct answers must come in one post. Feel free to do some research. I don't expect anyone - not even Wert - to know these off by heart.

Re: aSoIaF Trivia Game

Nightsong- House Caron
Driftmark- House Velaryon
Torrhen's Square- House Tallhart
Wayfarer's Rest- House Vance
Ninestars- House Templeton
The Crag- House Westerling
Ashford- House Ashford
Starfall- House Dayne
Lordsport- House Botley

I knew pathetically few of these. Had to look a lot up.

Pathetically few would be defined as 2 in my case.

Ah, yes, but you learnt something in the process! I like the questions that make you dig through the books or websites to find half-remembered snatches of things...

In short, well done, your turn.

Re: aSoIaF Trivia Game

Wouldn't do me any good without the other names...

I'll wait and see if anyone is good enough to do them from memory.

Re: aSoIaF Trivia Game

I should have remembered Tyrosh, they dye their beards... uh, the men that is. But I would not have remembered Volantis nor Lorath for the life of me.
