Alannys has lost much of her mental faculties, frequently forgetting that her sons Rodrik and Maron have died.[2]
History
During her husband's rebellion, Alannys was briefly the Queen of the Iron Islands. Her eldest two sons, Rodrik and Maron, were killed during the rebellion, however, and her youngest son, Theon, was taken by Lord Eddard Stark as a hostage. After the war, Alannys brought five boys, including Tristifer Botley, to Pyke to foster.[2]
As time passed, Alannys began to roam the halls of Pyke in search of her lost sons, even walking the rope bridge to the Sea Tower while barefoot.[2] She eventually moved to Ten Towers to live with her sister, Gwynesse Harlaw, as Harlaw is less raw than Pyke.[3]
