History

Ursula Upcliff joined the alliance of First Men houses, petty kings and clans summoned by Robar II Royce to fight against the Andals. According to tradition, Robar II won her alliance due to his "honeyed tongue."

Ursula participated in the Battle of Seven Stars, riding a bloodred horse. She faced Torgold Tollett and tried to curse him. However, according to singers, Torgold leapt upon Ursula's horse, grasped her face and tore her head from her shoulders as she screamed for succor.[1]
