The Village beneath Dragonstone is a fishing village near the castle of Dragonstone on the island of the same name.[1]
Layout
The fishing village huddles beneath the curtain walls of Dragonstone.[1] Tall arched windows in the gallery of the castle give a commanding view of the nearby village.[2] The village contains taverns, a harbor with docks, and whorehouses,[3] including a weathered little inn at the end of a stone pier. Standing before the inn is an eroded waist-high gargoyle.[4]
History
Members of House Targaryen sometimes slept with common women in the various villages below the Dragonmont.[3]
Many of the smallfolk of the fishing village attended the wedding of King Jaehaerys I Targaryen and Queen Alysanne Targaryen in 49 AC.[1]
Queen Rhaena Targaryen forbade Princess Aerea Targaryen from mingling with the daughters of fisherfolk from the village.[5] Androw Farman chose not to explore the fishing village and its docks beneath the castle.[5]
Ser Arryk Cargyll came ashore at the fishing village and entered Dragonstone disguised as his twin, Ser Erryk, during his failed mission amid the Dance of the Dragons.[3]
Stannis Baratheon, Lord of Dragonstone, banned prostitution on his isle.[4]
