Warden of the Stone Way is a warden title traditionally conferred upon the head of House Yronwood of Yronwood.
Responsibilities
[edit]Since wardens defend their region from invaders,[1] the Yronwoods would have military seniority over other local lords in the defense of the Stone Way, more commonly known as the Boneway.[2][3][4]
History
[edit]The title dates to the time House Yronwood ruled in their own right as kings after the coming of the Andals.[5] The earliest known Warden of the Stone Way is King Yorick V Yronwood; during the earlier time of the First Men, Yronwood kings styled themselves Lords of the Stone Way.[6]
