The stormlands and the location of the Weeping Town

The Weeping Town is a market town in the stormlands. Lying on the southern shore of Cape Wrath, along the Sea of Dorne,[1] it has a thriving port which handles much of the stormlands' trade.[2] It contains a seat, possibly known as the Weeping Tower, but its occupants are as yet unknown.[3][4]

History

It is known as the Weeping Town because it is where the corpse of Daeron I Targaryen was first brought after the king was murdered in Dorne.[2]
