Editing Mandon Moore (section)

===''A Clash of Kings''===
Mandon is one of the Kingsguard that King [[Joffrey I Baratheon]] commands to beat Sansa, and obeys without question.{{Ref|ACOK|2}}

Mandon is on guard outside the [[Red Keep#Other Buildings|council chambers]] when [[Tyrion Lannister]] arrives with [[Bronn]] and [[Timett]], carrying a message from his lord father, [[Tywin Lannister]]. Because Queen Regent [[Cersei Lannister]] had ordered for the meeting to not be disturbed, Mandon refuses to admit the newcomers. The white cloak eventually allows only Tyrion to pass.{{Ref|ACOK|3}}

Mandon is among the escort for the party that sees Princess [[Myrcella Baratheon]] off to [[Dorne]], serving as Sansa bodyguard. When the [[riot of King's Landing]] breaks out, Mandon guards King Joffrey after [[Sandor Clegane]] is mobbed, abandoning Sansa in the chaos. Someone grabs the king's leg, but Mandon severs the rioter's hand from the wrist. After the royal party reaches the safety of the [[Red Keep]], Cersei defends Mandon from Tyrion for having protected Joffrey instead of Sansa. Sandor returns Sansa safely to the castle.{{Ref|ACOK|41}}

During the [[Battle of the Blackwater]], Mandon is assigned to guard King Joffrey and Tyrion, the acting [[Hand of the King]]. When the king leaves for the [[Three Whores]], Mandon stays with Tyrion, however. After information has been received that [[Stannis Baratheon]]'s men intend to batter down the [[King's Gate]] with a ram, Mandon, Tyrion, and the Hand's [[squire]], [[Podrick Payne]], ride from the [[River Gate|Mud Gate]] to the King's Gate. Tyrion tries to talk Sandor, who is in charge at the King's Gate, into leading his men in a sortie against the enemies, but Sandor refuses, having been frightened by [[wildfire]].{{Ref|ACOK|57}}

Tyrion decides to lead the charge to the riverfront, with Mandon carrying Joffrey's banner. The [[knight]]'s lance breaks off in an opponent, and his shield is destroyed. Mandon and his Sworn Brother Ser [[Balon Swann]] skillfully fend off [[House Velaryon|Velaryon]] spearmen. While fighting on a ship, Tyrion is in danger of falling into the [[Blackwater Rush]]. Mandon first offers his hand to save Tyrion, but the knight then slashes at the Hand,{{Ref|ACOK|59}} cutting off part of Tyrion's nose. Tyrion pulls himself onto the deck, but Mandon prepares to stab him in the throat. However, Podrick pushes Mandon into the Blackwater, where he sinks under the weight of his armor{{Ref|ACOK|59}} and drowns.{{Ref|ACOK|67}}

While recuperating from his wounds, a fevered Tyrion has a nightmare of the wildfire and Mandon's assassination attempt. After waking, Tyrion thinks that Mandon was bribed by Cersei to kill him during the battle. Podrick is ashamed to have caused Mandon's death, but Tyrion praises Pod and instructs his squire to keep silent about Mandon.{{Ref|ACOK|67}}
