Victarion's [[Iron Fleet]] sails east, capturing prizes in the [[Redwyne Straits]] and along the coast of [[Dorne]]. After the [[Stepstones]], they split into three squadrons and set sail for [[Meereen]]. Victarion's squadron follows the coast of the [[Disputed Lands]], visits [[Volantis]], and continues past the [[Valyrian peninsula]]. Also aboard ''[[Iron Victory]]'' is the dusky woman, whom Victarion sleeps with. Victarion loses nearly half his ships by the time the Iron Fleet reaches the [[Isle of Cedars]]. Victarion's wounded hand continues to trouble him, and he suspects that [[Kerwin]], the [[maester]] from [[Greenshield]] that Euron sent to accompany him, is [[poison]]ing him. Victarion also dislikes the [[monkey]]s which board his ships from the Isle of Cedars.{{ref|ADWD|56}}

A [[red priest]] named [[Moqorro]] is discovered clinging to wreckage out at sea by ''[[Grief]]''. The crew of ''Iron Victory'' want Moqorro killed when ''Grief'''s captain brings him before their leader, but Moqorro convinces Victarion to allow him to treat his wounded hand. Behind closed doors, Moqorro apparently uses [[magic]] on the Lord Captain; when Victarion emerges from his cabin, his left hand is charred and blackened. Victarion has his men kill Maester Kerwin, for Moqorro has claimed his death will bring good winds,{{ref|ADWD|56}} and Victarion has [[Tom Tidewood]] garb the red priest in the black and gold colors of [[House Greyjoy]].{{ref|ADWD|63}}

The Iron Fleet captures ''[[Ghiscari Dawn]]'' while continuing north toward Meereen, and Victarion has its captain drowned as a sacrifice to the [[Drowned God]] for claiming that [[A Dance with Dragons-Chapter 52|Daenerys has died]].{{ref|ADWD|63}} When the ironborn capture ''[[Dove]]'', Victarion claims the [[Myrish eye]] of its captain for himself.{{ref|ADWD|63}} When the captains of two captured galleys repeat the claim that Daenerys is dead, Victarion beheads them and kills most of their crew. Victarion frees their enslaved [[oarsman|oarsmen]], but then forces them to row for the Iron Fleet.{{ref|ADWD|63}} Victarion strangles the master of a fishing ketch after the fisherman laughs at the ironman's lack of knowledge of the [[Dothraki sea]].{{ref|ADWD|63}}

Moqorro, like [[Melisandre]], can apparently see the future in the flames, and he prays before nightfires to aid Victarion in his quest. The ''Iron Victory'''s crew live in great fear of Moqorro and call him the Black Flame. Victarion begins making offerings to both the Drowned God and Moqorro's red god, [[R'hllor]]. When the Iron Fleet captures a [[Yunkai|Yunkish]] slaver galley, ''[[Willing Maiden]]'', Victarion has the captive boys join the ironmen as rowers and gives the captive girls to his captains. Victarion claims the seven prettiest girls for himself, sets them adrift in a burning ketch, and has the girls burn and drown as sacrifices to his two gods. Victarion shows [[Dragonbinder]], the [[dragon horn]] given to him by Euron, to Moqorro, and the red priest tells the ironman he must claim the horn with blood.{{ref|ADWD|63}}
