House Oakheart
From A Wiki of Ice and Fire
House Oakheart of Old Oak is an old and powerful family from the Reach.
Neither their arms or their motto appear in the books. However, in noncanon correspondence with fans George R. R. Martin has revealed their arms as three green oak leaves on gold, and given the motto "Our Roots Go Deep".
