  • Howland Reed is said to have remained at Greywater's Watch since the end of the war.
  • Although the crannongmen did not join Robb Stark's army, they were instructed to protect the Neck if the Lannisters tried to come up to the North.
  • Howland Reed sent his children Meera and Jojen to Winterfell to represent the family in the harvest feast and renew the oath to the Starks.
  • Meera and Jojen played a significant part in the Starks escape during the fall of Winterfell, and accompanied Bran in his travel to meet the three-eyed crow.
