The Vale of Arryn and the location of the Paps

The Paps is an island to the northeast of the Fingers in the narrow sea. The seat of House Elesham, the Paps is considered part of the Vale of Arryn and is sworn to the Eyrie.[1] It is named after a pair of large, stony hills that rise together on the island.[2]

History

The island was brought under the rule of House Arryn by Hugo the Hopeful, King of Mountain and Vale.[3]

Henrietta Woodhull, daughter of a landed knight from the Paps, was the last lady to be presented to King Aegon III Targaryen at the Maiden's Day Cattle Show in King's Landing.[4]
