Parley At Runestone

Here is another official illustration I’ve provided for "The Rise Of The Dragon: An Illustrated History of the Targaryen Dynasty, Volume One" by George R. R. Martin, Elio M. García Jr. and Linda Antonsson.

" Gunthor Royce, known in the Vale as the Bronze Giant, was an old man, as stubborn as he was fearless; when Ser Corwyn arrived to winkle Ser Arnold out of his sanctuary, Lord Gunthor donned his ancient bronze armor and rode out to confront him. Words grew heated, turned to curses, then to threats. When Corbray drew on Lady Forlorn- whether to strike at Royce or merely threaten him will never be known-- a crossbowman on Runestone's battlements loosed a quarrel and pierced him through the breast.
