Shield of the Faith
From A Wiki of Ice and Fire
Shield of the Faith is an honorary title claimed by the Lord of House Manderly of White Harbor.[1] It showcases House Manderly's allegiance to the Faith of the Seven, although it is unknown whether the title is recognized by the High Septon and the Most Devout.
Being exiles from the Reach, the Manderlys are the most prominent of the few houses of the north who adhere to the Faith,[2] others being the more minor House Whitehills and possibly House Wells. Most northern followers of the Faith live in the south of the region.[3] Known northern septs include the Sept of the Snows at White Harbor[4] and a small sept at Winterfell built for Catelyn Tully.[5]
