Important Events[]
After winning the joust, Flement Lefford asked to be appointed to the order of the Kingsguard and was granted his request.
The tournament was overshadowed by the events of the preceding feast, during which Gylen Hightower severed his kingdom's ties to the Iron Throne after a public argument with King Damon, causing somewhat of a panic with his revelation that Queen Danae had left the capital and was rumored to be plotting a return to King's Landing on dragonback to press her claim alone.
