==Quotes== [[File:Edmure Riverun.jpg|thumb|350px|[[Edmure Tully]] by Amok Β©]] {{quote|With its moat fully flooded, Riverrun becomes an island, all but invulnerable to assault.{{ref|TWOIAF|The Riverlands: Riverrun}}|writings of [[Yandel]]}} {{quote|She had been born a [[House Tully|Tully]], at Riverrun far to the south, on the [[Red Fork]] of the [[Trident]]. [[godswood of Riverrun|The godswood]] there was a garden, bright and airy, where tall redwoods spread dappled shadows across tinkling streams, birds sang from hidden nests, and the air was spicy with the scent of flowers.{{Ref|AGOT|2}}|thoughts of [[Catelyn Stark]]}} {{quote|The southern rain was soft and warm. Catelyn liked the feel of it on her face, gentle as a mother's kisses. It took her back to her childhood, to long grey days at Riverrun. She remembered [[godswood of Riverrun|the godswood]], drooping branches heavy with moisture, and the sound of [[Edmure Tully|her brother's]] laughter as he chased her through piles of damp leaves. She remembered making mud pies with [[Lysa Arryn|Lysa]], the weight of them, the mud slick and brown between her fingers. They had served them to [[Petyr Baelish|Littlefinger]], giggling, and he'd eaten so much mud he was sick for a week. How young they all had been.{{Ref|AGOT|28}}|thoughts of [[Catelyn Stark]]}} {{quote|'''Harys''': How could this happen? ''How''? Even after the [[battle in the Whispering Wood|Whispering Wood]], you had Riverrun ringed in iron, surrounded by a great host ... what madness made Ser [[Jaime Lannister|Jaime]] decide to split his men into [[Battle of the Camps|three separate camps]]? Surely he knew how vulnerable that would leave them?<br>'''Kevan''': I would have done the same. You have never seen Riverrun, Ser Harys, or you would know that Jaime had little choice in the matter.{{Ref|AGOT|69}}|[[Harys Swyft]] and [[Kevan Lannister]]}} {{quote|It was late afternoon when they sighted Riverrun, rising from the narrow point where the [[Tumblestone]] joined the [[Red Fork]]. The [[House Tully|Tully]] castle looked like a great stone ship with its prow pointed downriver. Its sandstone walls were drenched in red-gold light, and seemed higher and thicker than Jaime had remembered.{{Ref|AFFC|33}}|thoughts of [[Jaime Lannister]]}} {{quote|Riverrun is mine, and no man shall ever take it from me.{{Ref|AFFC|44}}|[[Emmon Frey]] to [[Genna Lannister]]}} {{quote|This was [[Hoster Tully|my father's]] solar. He ruled the [[riverlands]] from here, wisely and well. He liked to sit beside that window. The light was good there, and whenever he looked up from his work he could see [[Red Fork|the river]]. When his eyes were tired he would have [[Catelyn Stark|Cat]] read to him. [[Petyr Baelish|Littlefinger]] and I built a castle out of wooden blocks once, there beside the door. You will never know how sick it makes me to see you in this room, Kingslayer. You will never know how much I despise you.{{Ref|AFFC|44}}|[[Edmure Tully]] to [[Jaime Lannister]]}}
