The Battle of the Twins

The Battle of the Twins is a small battle during the War of the Five Kings. It takes place at the Frey Stronghold of the Twins.



Prelude
After the Battle of the Burning Rivers, Daenerys is told of the Red Wedding by an unnamed Northman. He tells her that the Freys did it, though not which one, and that their stronghold was the Twins. With the aid of Barristan Selmy for navigation, Dany heads towards the twins.

Battle
Daenerys first approached the castle with intent to kill any living Frey inside, except for the children. Her host did not encounter resistence to the slightest degree, and started simply sieging the castle, killing any Raven's that escaped the castle on the way and feeding them to Viserion, Rhaegal and Drogon, but to little fruit.

After several days of unsuccesful siege, Daenerys sent a raven with one chance to surrender, and when she got no raven back, she mounted Viserion and burnt the castle down, the majority of the stone melting into the river below. It is rumored you can still see the castle to this day.

Aftermath
What Frey's were left were executed for high treason, appeasing several Northern Lords who then sent their host to meet with Daenerys, peacefully, instead of hostile. Daenerys then set her eyes of Casterly Rock, where Aegon Targaryen was holding up, waiting for Daenerys so the two could treat.
