Highgarden, seat of the Lord Paramount of the Reach
Lord Paramount of the Reach is a title held by the Great House of the Reach.
House Tyrell traditionally held the title since the death of Mern Gardener and the extinction of his House during the War of Conquest, when Harlen Tyrell, the Steward of Highgarden, bent the knee to Aegon the Conqueror, but all prominent members of the house were killed after the Destruction of the Great Sept of Baelor and the Sack of Highgarden.
Ser Bronn of the Blackwater later offers to join Jaime and Tyrion Lannister with the forces of Queen Daenerys Targaryen, rather than assassinate them, should he be named Lord of Highgarden, a deal to which Tyrion reluctantly agrees.[1]
After the Battle of King's Landing and the subsequent Great Council of 305 AC, Bronn was named to the position by Brandon Stark, the newly crowned Lord of the Six Kingdoms. He was additionally named Master of Coin, the post held by his predecessor Mace Tyrell.[2]
