Notes
- ↑ The distance between Tumbleton and King's Landing is cited three times in the books: "sixty leagues" (in The World of Ice and Fire, The Targaryen Kings: Aegon II), "some fifty leagues" (in Fire and Blood, The Dying of the Dragons - Rhaenyra Triumphant), and "sixty leagues" (in Fire and Blood, The Dying of the Dragons - Rhaenyra Triumphant). It can be reasonably assumed the distance is actually sixty leagues and the passage referencing fifty leagues was a broad estimation.
