Ser Erryk Cargyll was a knight from House Cargyll. He and his twin brother, Ser Arryk Cargyll, were members of the Kingsguard during the reign of King Viserys I Targaryen.[2]
History
Ser Erryk and Ser Arryk Cargyll were both unhorsed by Ser Criston Cole at the tourney for King Viserys I's accession at Maidenpool in 105 AC.[3]
In 120 AC King Viserys I Targaryen made Erryk the sworn shield of Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen, replacing Ser Harwin Strong.[3]
After the death of Viserys, Erryk followed Ser Steffon Darklyn and Ser Lorent Marbrand in siding with the blacks and joined the Queensguard of Rhaenyra. His brother Arryk, however, supported Rhaenyra's rival, King Aegon II Targaryen.[2]
Ser Criston, the Lord Commander of Aegon's Kingsguard, tasked Arryk with infiltrating Dragonstone in the guise of his twin, Erryk. It is uncertain whether he was to kill Rhaenyra or her children. The twins came upon each other in one of the hallways of the castle's citadel and fought to the death. According to songs, the brothers professed their love and died in one another's arms after fighting for an hour. Mushroom, however, claims they called each other traitor and were both mortally wounded within moments.[4][1]
Behind the Scenes
Erryk and Arryk Cargyll are inspired by brothers from Arthurian legend, Balin and Balan.[5]
