Two of the great Northern Houses for you, Bannermen. Know your kin. ;) House Ryswell of the Rills rules the extensive area between the Barrowlands and the Stony Shore in the North. Their blazon is a black horses head, eyes and mane red, on bronze within a black engrailed border, the historian GRRM records. Ser Mark Ryswell died fighting with Eddard Stark and his other companions at the Tower of Joy. Spearmen from the Rills composed part of the force that Lord Roose Bolton left under the command of Ronnel Stout and Ser Kyle Condon in the aftermath of the Battle of the Ruby Ford. The Ryswells and Dustins were the first to declare for House Bolton when Lord Roose was named Warden of the North. The Ryswells also joined the army led by Ramsay Bolton remove the Ironborn from Moat Cailin. Lord Rodrik Ryswell attended the wedding of Ramsay to Arya Stark at Winterfell. He remains hostile towards the Freys, as several of House Ryswells men were slain at the Red Wedding. House Dustin of Barrowton blazon their shield with two rusted longaxes with black shafts crossed, a black crown between their points, on yellow, according to semi-canon text. Lord Roderick Dustin led two thousand northern soldiers, known as the Winter Wolves, during the Dance of the Dragons. Lord Willam Dustin was one of the six companions who fought alongside their Lord Warden Eddard Stark at the Tower of Joy.
