Last Storm

The Fall of Storm's End was a major battle in the Wars of Conquest. To conquer the Stormlands, Aegon the Conqueror sent his commander Orys Baratheon, rumored to be his bastard half-brother.

Even though the massive walls of Storm's End provided protection against Baratheon's siege, Argilac the Storm King decided to meet the invading armies in open battle. In the end, Orys Baratheon and the Targaryen army were victorious, while Argilac was killed.

As a reward for his victory, Orys Baratheon was legitimized and declared Lord Paramount of the Stormlands. To cement his rule, Baratheon took Argilac's daughter, Argalia, as his wife. He also took both Argilac's sigil - a black stag on yellow - and his words - "Ours is the Fury" - as his own; thus, House Baratheon was founded.
