Lynesse Hightower is the youngest daughter of Lord Leyton Hightower.[1] She was the second wife of Ser Jorah Mormont. She has golden hair, skin the color of cream and soft hands.[2]
History
At the Tourney at Lannisport she met her future husband, Ser Jorah Mormont. He crowned her the Queen of Love and Beauty after winning the tourney and asked for her hand in marriage. They married shortly thereafter in Lannisport.
After a while their marriage became unhappy due to her unfamiliarity with the North and his inability to lavish her with new gifts. Eventually, Ser Jorah attempted to raise cash by selling some poachers to a Tyroshi slaver. Lord Eddard Stark found out about this and set off to punish Ser Jorah, declaring his life forfeit. Ser Jorah and Lynesse escaped and fled to the Lys, but there again, Ser Jorah could not afford the lifestyle Lynesse wanted and she left him.
Lynesse moved into the manse of a merchant prince Tregar Ormollen and is now his chief concubine.[3]
