House Tallhart[1][d] of Torrhen's Square is a vassal house that holds fealty to House Stark of Winterfell. House Tallhart's lands are south-west of Winterfell. Their seat is Torrhen's Square.
History[]
Game of Thrones: Season 2[]
Theon consults with Dagmer how he can prove himself as a true Iron Islander. Theon mentions that Torrhen's Square lies near to the Stony Shore; Dagmer says that the seat of House Tallhart is more worthy prize than raiding fishermen's villages.[2]
In the books[]
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, House Tallhart is a masterly house sworn to the Starks of Winterfell as Masters of Torrhen's Square. According to a semi-canon source, House Tallhart descends from the First Men.
In the novels, House Tallhart's heraldry consists of three green sentinel trees on a brown background. The TV series changed this to one green sentinel tree, on a white background.[citation needed]

Notes[]
- ↑ Conjecture based on information from A Song of Ice and Fire; may be subject to change.
- ↑ In "Winter Is Coming," which takes place in 298 AC, Sansa Stark tells Cersei Lannister that she is 13 years old and Bran Stark tells Jaime Lannister that he is 10 years old. Arya Stark was born between Sansa and Bran, making her either 11 or 12 in Season 1. The rest of the Stark children have been aged up by 2 years from their book ages, so it can be assumed that she is 11 in Season 1. Arya is 18 in Season 8 according to HBO, which means at least 7 years occur in the span of the series; therefore, each season of Game of Thrones must roughly correspond to a year in-universe, placing the events of Season 3 in 300 AC.
