Youngest daughter of Lady Maege Mormont of Bear Island, ten years old in 300 AC and ruling the holdfast in her mother's absence at the war. To King Stannis Baratheon's letter asking for her fealty she sent a single curt sentence in a child's hand: Bear Island knows no king but the King in the North whose name is STARK. The brevity of her answer won her the affection of every northerner who heard of it, and the wary respect of every southron besides.
