While Edmure is away from [[Riverrun]], his sister, [[Catelyn Stark]], frees Ser [[Jaime Lannister]] and sends him back to [[King's Landing]] with [[Brienne of Tarth]] and Ser [[Cleos Frey]], hoping that [[Tyrion Lannister]] will in return free Catelyn's daughter, [[Sansa Stark|Sansa]] and [[Arya Stark]]. Edmure's castellan, Ser [[Desmond Grell]], confines Catelyn to Lord [[Hoster Tully]]'s chambers.{{ref|ASOS|2}} Once Edmure returns to the castle, he sends [[raven]]s offering a reward of a thousand [[currency|gold dragons]].{{ref|ASOS|2}} [[Rymund the Rhymer]] writes a verse about Edmure's victory at the Stone Mill.{{ref|ASOS|14}}

[[Robb Stark]], [[King of the Trident]], returns to Riverrun from the westerlands. While Robb publicly praises Edmure in the Great Hall for Stone Mill, the king and Ser [[Brynden Tully]] berate Edmure in a private audience chamber for disrupting Robb's plan. According to them, Edmure, in defending the Red Fork, unknowingly thwarted Robb's plans. Robb argues he wanted Tywin to cross the river and then be trapped in the [[westerlands]] by the Stark and Frey cavalry there. However, Robb did not reveal this plan to Edmure beforehand. By pushing Tywin's army back, Edmure inflicted enough of a delay for messengers from [[Bitterbridge]] to reach Tywin with word of what was happening to the south, allowing Tywin to turn his army around and aid the [[House Tyrell|Tyrells]] and his grandson, King [[Joffrey Baratheon|Joffrey I Baratheon]], in the [[Battle of the Blackwater]]. Edmure offers to lead the van in the next battle.{{ref|ASOS|14}}

After Lord [[Rickard Karstark]] murders the young [[Willem Lannister]] and [[Tion Frey]], two of Robb's prisoners, as well as some of [[House Tully guards|Riverrun's guards]], Edmure advises Robb to keep Rickard as a hostage. The king instead chooses to behead his bannerman in Riverrun's godswood.{{ref|ASOS|20}}

Edmure succeeds his father as Lord of Riverrun when Hoster dies, but Edmure takes the loss hard. He fails to ignite Hoster's funeral boat with three fire arrows, although Brynden succeeds in doing so. Edmure is offended when Lord [[Walder Frey]] sends a cripple, [[Lothar Frey|Lame Lothar Frey]], and a bastard, [[Walder Rivers]], as emissaries to Riverrun.{{ref|ASOS|35}} With Robb having broken his alliance with [[House Frey]] by wedding [[Jeyne Westerling]], Edmure agrees to wed one of Walder's daughters, [[Roslin Frey|Roslin]], to make amends for the [[Battle of the Fords]] and for Robb's marriage.{{ref|ASOS|35}}

The [[Brave Companions]] capture Jaime, chop off his sword hand,{{ref|ASOS|21}} and bring him to Lord [[Roose Bolton]] at [[Harrenhal]].{{ref|ASOS|31}} Instead of returning Jaime to Edmure and Robb, Roose sends him on to King's Landing,{{ref|ASOS|44}} hoping that Lord [[Tywin Lannister]] will not blame Roose for the actions of [[Vargo Hoat]].{{ref|ASOS|37}}

At [[Hag's Mire]] during the journey to the [[Twins]], Edmure is present when Robb plans his [[siege of Moat Cailin]] and announces a successor;{{ref|ASOS|45}} according to a semi-canon source this is Robb's half brother, [[Jon Snow]].{{ref|AWOIAF|Robb Stark}}

Edmure, Robb, Catelyn, and their retinue receive [[guest right]] when they arrive at the Twins. Edmure had thought Walder would offer him an ugly or half-witted girl just to spite him and Robb, but Roslin turns out to be beautiful.{{ref|ASOS|49}} Edmure is considerate to his new bride, but Roslin has a fixed smile{{ref|ASOS|51}} and cries before the wedding{{ref|ASOS|49}} and at the ensuing feast.{{ref|ASOS|51}} Edmure and Roslin leave the hall to consummate the marriage in the [[bedding]] custom. Edmure is distracted by fiddlers outside his guest chamber, and by Roslin within.{{ref|AFFC|38}} Meanwhile, Freys and [[House Bolton|Boltons]] attack the guests remaining in the hall in what becomes known as the [[Red Wedding]].{{ref|ASOS|51}} Edmure's sister, Catelyn, and his nephew, King Robb, are murdered, along with numerous others.{{ref|ASOS|51}}

Edmure is taken prisoner by his new father-in-law, Walder Frey.{{ref|ASOS|53}} His closest friend, Ser [[Marq Piper]], is also held captive at Riverrun,{{ref|ASOS|62}} while [[Patrek Mallister]] is used by [[Walder Frey (son of Ryman)|Black Walder Frey]] to force the surrender of Lord [[Jason Mallister]] at [[Seagard]].{{ref|ASOS|60}}{{ref|AFFC|38}}

After the death of King [[Joffrey Baratheon|Joffrey I Baratheon]], the new king, his brother [[Tommen Baratheon|Tommen I]], issues bills of [[w:Attainder|attainder]] against Edmure and his uncle, Brynden Tully. Riverrun is to be granted to Ser [[Emmon Frey]] once the castle is surrendered by Brynden the Blackfish.{{ref|ASOS|71}} 

Edmure's remaining sister, [[Lysa Arryn]], is thrown to her death through the [[Moon Door]] of the [[Eyrie]] by their childhood friend, Lord [[Petyr Baelish]].{{ref|ASOS|80}}
