Recent Events

A Clash of Kings

Ser Jon is among the nobles who declare for Renly Baratheon and is present beneath the walls of Bitterbridge when Lady Catelyn Stark arrives. At the feast that evening, Jon and Catelyn are seated beside each other, and he makes jests with her.^[2] When the parley at Storm's End between the brothers Renly and Stannis Baratheon breaks down and battle seems imminent, Jon offers to lead the van into battle.^[3]

Jon goes over to Stannis's forces after Renly's death during the siege of Storm's End. The castle's castellan, Ser Cortnay Penrose, proposes to settle the siege with single combat. Jon advises Stannis to take him up on the offer. Jon is prepared to take the challenge himself, although he admits that he is not as good as Lord Bryce Caron or Ser Guyard Morrigen.^[4]

Jon fights for Stannis at the Battle of the Blackwater but is captured by Lothor Brune. He bends the knee to King Joffrey I Baratheon.^[5]

A Storm of Swords

Jon is a sworn sword of Lord Mace Tyrell.^[6]

A Feast for Crows

Jon's wife, Janna Fossoway, hawks with Margaery Tyrell in King's Landing.^[7]

Quotes

I would gladly take this challenge myself, though I'm not half the swordsman Lord Caron is, or Ser Guyard. Renly left no notable knights at Storm's End. Garrison duty is for old men and green boys.^[4]
