History
Good Queen Alysanne had great influence over Jaehaerys. She convinced him to abolish the lord's right to the First Night.
Later, when the couple visited the North, the queen traveled to the Wall on her dragon Silverwing. According to stories she was so impressed by the bravery of the Night's Watch that she asked Jaehaerys to double the size of the Watch's land. The acquired land was called "the New Gift." During her visit she stayed in castle Snowgate, which was re-named Queensgate in her honour.[2] She also convinced the Night's Watch to build a new castle, Deep Lake, as a replacement for the Nightfort.[3]
According to semi-canon sources, she was very close to her husband, his most trusted counselor. She had many charities and was loved by the people.[4]
There is a song, Alysanne, that may be about her. It is a sad song.[5]
