Lady Belmore was the wife of Ser Ronnel Arryn and the mother of Elbert Arryn.[1] Her first name is unknown.

History

[edit]

After Jon Arryn became Lord of the Eyrie, he named his younger brother, Ser Ronnel Arryn, as Keeper of the Gates of the Moon.[2] Ronnel then married a Belmore girl, but he bedded her only a few times before dying of a bad belly himself. Ronnel was dying at roughly the same time their son Elbert was born. After the death of his father, Elbert became Lord Jon's heir.[1] Elbert was later murdered by King Aerys II Targaryen.[1]

A Feast for Crows

[edit]

Petyr Baelish explains the recent history of House Arryn to Sansa Stark, mentioning Ronnel Arryn, his marriage to Lady Belmore, his death, and the birth of his son Elbert.[1]

Quotes

[edit]

Petyr: Lord Jasper's younger son, Ser Ronnel Arryn, wed a Belmore girl, but only rang her once or twice before dying of a bad belly. Their son Elbert was being born in one bed even as poor Ronnel was dying in another down the hall. Are you paying close attention, sweetling?
Sansa: Yes. There was Jon and Alys and Ronnel, but Ronnel died.[1]
