Recent Events

A Storm of Swords

While crossing Blackwater Bay, the Bountiful Harvest was seized by Salladhor Saan, ostensibly for evading the new duties and customs he had imposed after being named Lord of Blackwater Bay by Stannis Baratheon's Hand, Lord Alester Florent.

In Dragonstone's harbor, Davos Seaworth finds his friend Salladhor in the seized ship's hold counting cargo with two eunuchs. The Harvest was supposed to be carrying forty-three jars of pepper but was carrying only thirty-nine.[2] Davos is taken to the owner's cabin where he and Salladhor discuss recent events. When Davos talks of seeking vengeance, Salladhor becomes angry and Davos leaves.

A Dance with Dragons

The Bountiful Harvest was apparently part of the fleet that carried Stannis Baratheon’s army north to the Wall. The fleet encountered violent storms on its way back south and Bountiful Harvest was one of many ships that were lost. A gale in the Shivering Sea had ripped away Harvest’s rigging, forcing Salladhor to have her towed. Ten leagues north of Widow’s Watch, heavy seas slammed Harvest into one of the galleys towing her, and both ships sank.[3]

Quotes

A coarse grind, and of the second quality, my nose declares. The bill of landing is saying forty-three jars. Where have the others gotten to, I am wondering? These Pentoshi, do they think I am not counting? [4]

- Salladhor Saan
