'''Last Hearth''',{{Ref|ASOS|9}} sometimes called '''the Last Hearth''',{{Ref|ASOS|7}} is the seat of [[House Umber]] in the [[north]]. It lies close to the [[Gift]] in a forest east of the [[kingsroad]]. The castle is north of the [[Last River]], northeast of [[Long Lake]], and west of the [[Bay of Seals]].{{Ref|TLOIAF|Westeros}}{{Ref|ACOK|16}}{{Ref|AWOIAF|Last Hearth}} With the exception of the castles of the [[Night's Watch]], Last Hearth is the northernmost major castle of the [[Seven Kingdoms]].{{Ref|AWOIAF|Last Hearth}}

==History==
Last Hearth was the royal seat of the [[House Umber|Umbers]] when they were petty kings in the [[Age of Heroes]].{{Ref|TWOIAF|The North: The Kings of Winter}}

In {{date|58}} Queen [[Alysanne Targaryen]] flew on [[Silverwing]] to the Last Hearth and other local keeps, surprising and delighting [[north]]ern lords.{{Ref|FAB|Jaehaerys and Alysanne - Their Triumphs and Tragedies}}

In the great [[mêlée at Last Hearth]] in {{Date|170}}, it is said that no fewer than eighteen men died, and half again that number were sorely maimed before the day was done.{{Ref|TWOIAF|The North}}

==Recent Events==
===''A Game of Thrones''===
Lord [[Jon Umber|Greatjon Umber]] and his son, the [[Smalljon Umber|Smalljon]], lead most of the Umber fighting men south alongside [[Robb Stark]].{{Ref|AGOT|53}}

===''A Clash of Kings''===
In the absence of its lord, Last Hearth is administered by joint castellans, [[Mors Umber|Mors Crowfood]] and [[Hother Umber|Hother Whoresbane]], uncles of the Greatjon. During the [[harvest feast]] of [[Winterfell]], Mors and Hother request assistance from [[Bran Stark]] because the Umbers lack the manpower to harvest their land and repel [[wildlings]] encroaching from across the Bay of Seals. The castellans are tasked by Ser [[Rodrik Cassel]] to build longships made of Umber lumber with [[White Harbor]]'s assistance.{{Ref|ACOK|16}}

Bran and his companions consider stealing horses and riding to Last Hearth, but Bran decides they should find the [[three-eyed crow]] [[beyond the Wall]] instead.{{Ref|ASOS|9}}

Maester [[Aemon Targaryen (son of Maekar I)|Aemon]] sends a raven to Last Hearth in a plea for help to defend [[Castle Black]] from [[wildlings]].{{Ref|ASOS|55}}

===''A Dance with Dragons''===
Because Greatjon Umber is held prisoner at the [[Twins]] after the [[Red Wedding]], Hother reluctantly supports Lord [[Roose Bolton]] as [[Warden of the North]]. Mors decides to support [[Stannis Baratheon]] as [[King of Westeros]] if he is given the skull of [[Mance Rayder]] and if Hother is pardoned for supporting Roose.{{Ref|ADWD|17}} It is unknown who holds Last Hearth in the brothers' absence.

At [[Castle Black]], Ser [[Godry Farring]] suggests that Stannis intimidate the Umbers by killing Mors and burning Last Hearth, but [[Jon Snow]] scoffs at the idea.{{Ref|ADWD|17}}

===''The Winds of Winter''===
{{Warning/twow}}
[[Theon Greyjoy]] tells Stannis that Mors took green boys to support Stannis, while Hother took greybeards to support Roose.{{ref|twow||[[Theon I (The Winds of Winter)|Theon]]}}

==Quotes==
{{quote|'''Jon''': If it comes to swords, see where [[Hother Umber|Hother's]] banner flies and put [[Mors Umber|Mors]] on the other end of the line.<br>
'''Godry''': You would make [[Stannis Baratheon|His Grace]] look weak. I say, show our strength. Burn Last Hearth to the ground and ride to war with Crowfood's head mounted on a spear, as a lesson to the next lord who presumes to offer half his homage.<br>
'''Jon''': A fine plan if what you want is every hand in the [[north]] raised against you.{{ref|ADWD|17}}|[[Jon Snow]] and [[Godry Farring]]}}
