House Chester of Greenshield rules over one of the Shield Islands. The Shield Islands are a considerable sea strength and were the first line of defense during the days that the Ironborn pirates tried to sail up the Mander to sack the wealth of the Reach.[1]
According to semi-canon sources they blazon their arms with a green hand on a gold escutcheon on a green field, a border of red rayonne.[2] Their words do not appear in the books.
