“Dear brother. I had hoped that you were dead.”

The Amethyst Empress was a legendary ruler of a mythic empire known as the Great Empire of the Dawn. She was the eighth ruler and one of its last monarchs. She was her father, Opal Emperor’s successor. However she was removed and killed by her jealous younger brother, who crowned himself as the Bloodstone Emperor. This was known as the Blood Betrayl that led to the Long Night in YiTish myth. 

Ser Gerold Dayne is a knight of High Hermitage, a cadet house of the Daynes of Starfall. He is known for being handsome, his purple eyes, light hair, and he is in his late twenties. It’s also speculated at one point he was one of Princess Arianne Martell’s. Though of his beauty and looks, he is actually angry and very cruel. He is also extremely jealous of his late cousin, Ser Arthur Dayne who was the Sword of the Morning. Gerold allies himself with Princess Arianne Martell during the attempt of the Princess crowning Myrcella Baratheon. He was only included due to him reigning High Hermitage and his fighting abilities. When surprised at Arianne’s party by Areo Hath, Gerold attempts to kill Myrcella during the fighting but he only scars her face and cuts off her ear. Arianne Martell speculates that the plan failed thinking Ser Gerold Dayne betrayed her. Myrcella blames Gerold for the death of Arys, and Arianne feels that Gerold can be killed by Obara and Areo. His whereabouts are unknown.
