===Lady Rohanne Webber=== [[File:Rohanne Webber by Eluas.png|thumb|right|350px|[[Rohanne Webber]], by Eluas Β© ]] A number of rumors were spoken of Lady Rohanne, calling her a [[witch]] and a [[poison]]er who had murdered her brothers, husbands, and children to attain power. They called her "the Red Widow", a title she accepted as the epithet strengthened her reputation, but certain calumnies made her furious. In {{Date|209}}, not long after Rohanne became the Lady of Coldmoat, a [[smallfolk|peasant]] of House Osgrey's villages, [[Dake]], was accused of stealing sheep from House Webber's lands. After twice complaining to Ser Eustace Osgrey, Lady Rohanne had her knights seize Dake and drown him in a sack in Coldmoat's moat. This infuriated Eustace Osgrey, and he also began to slander her. Other issues Lady Rohanne had to deal with in her rule were [[Lord Stackhouse]], who desired the Webbers' Horseshoe Hills, Ser [[Clifford Conklyn]]'s claim to Leafy Lake, and the cattle-stealing [[House Durwell]]. Rohanne's castellan, Ser Lucas, was also a danger, threatening to fight and driving away nearly all the suitors who had dared the rumors to court her. Furthermore, various kin of Rohanne's husbands had come to Coldmoat with her marriages, and remained living at the castle even after the men died, as part of the Webber household, including [[Septon]] [[Sefton Staunton|Sefton]] and Lady [[Helicent Uffering]]. Nevertheless, Rohanne maintained the Webber grain fields and fruit orchards, raising cattle and five hundred head of black-nosed sheep, and bred "the finest [[horse]]s in the Reach".{{Ref|TSS}} In {{Date|211}}, the second year of a severe [[Westeros#Climate|summer]] drought, Lady Rohanne Webbber had the Chequy Water dammed in order to irrigate Webber lands and fill Coldmoat's namesake moat. However, this blocked the stream from reaching Osgrey lands. This caused a confrontation with Ser Eustace, when his [[sworn sword]], Ser [[Bennis of the Brown Shield]], saw the dam being built and assaulted [[Wolmer]], one of Rohanne's men. Eustace sent Ser [[Duncan the Tall]], another of his sworn swords, to Coldmoat to pay a [[blood price]] for Wolmer, and to request that Rohanne take the dam down. However, Rohanne rejected both offers, and had her [[maester]], [[Cerrick]], show Duncan a document sealed by [[House Targaryen|the crown]], declaring House Webber's possession of the Chequy Water and revealing that Ser Eustace had been a traitorous supporter of the Blackfyres, both of which Duncan was not aware. The conflict between House Webber and House Osgrey further escalated when Wat's Wood burned, and Eustace accused Rohanne or her people of setting the fire. Rohanne denied burning the forest, and demanded an apology; she also did not accept Duncan cutting his own cheek as payment for Bennis's attack on her man. Both Rohanne and Eustace refused to have Lord Rowan judge the conflict, and eventually they agreed to a [[trial by combat]] between Eustace's champion, Ser Duncan, and Rohanne's champion, Ser Lucas Inchfield, who demanded that Rohanne marry him once he won. Duncan prevailed in the combat in the Chequy Water, killing Ser Lucas, but in the process Duncan drowned in the stream; however, Maester Cerrick revived him with the [[ironborn]]'s [[kiss of life]]. Nevertheless, Duncan's valor reconciled Eustace and Rohanne. Eustace allowed Rohanne to enter his lands, and she visited Addam Osgrey's grave at Standfast; when she began to weep, Eustace comforted her. They spent the night talking of their families, and married the next day, which allowed Rohanne to keep Coldmoat.{{Ref|TSS}} Ser Eustace Osgrey became the Lord of Coldmoat, but it is not known if he became the ruling lord or only a consort to Lady Rohanne: thus, the lands that were under the domain of House Webber may or may not have been restored to House Osgrey. When Ser Duncan the Tall recovered and left Coldmoat, Lord Eustace gave him a parting gift of a Webber sigil brooch of an [[ivory]] spider, with [[silver]] legs and crushed [[garnet]] spots. Lady Rohanne gave Duncan's squire, [[Aegon V Targaryen|Egg]], a gift of a [[palfrey]]{{Ref|TSS}} eventually named [[Rain]].{{Ref|TMK}} She also attempted to give Duncan a place as captain of the Webber guards, and to gift him a [[courser]] mare, [[Flame]], but he rejected both offers.{{Ref|TSS}} It is uncertain when Eustace Osgrey died, although it was before {{Date|219}}.<ref name="calc">''See the [[Years after Aegon's Conquest/Calculations Ages (Continued)#Eustace Osgrey|Eustace Osgrey]] calculation.''</ref> Lady Rohanne eventually married [[Gerold Lannister]], though whether before or after he became [[Lord of Casterly Rock]] in {{Date|213}} is unknown. She had four sons with him, twins [[Tywald Lannister|Tywald]] and [[Tion Lannister|Tion]], [[Tytos Lannister|Tytos]] (born {{Date|220}}), and [[Jason Lannister (son of Gerold)|Jason Lannister]] (born {{Date|229}}). Lady Rohanne disappeared under mysterious circumstances in {{Date|230}}, less than a year after giving birth to Jason.{{Ref|TWOIAF|7|6|1}}
