Mother Rhoyne is a deity associated with the Rhoyne.
The Rhoynar were the greatest of Mother Rhoyne's children, and it is believed that she would whisper the secrets of their enemies to them, allowing the Rhoynish water-wizards to summon walls of water with which to defeat their foes.
Once the Rhoynar were defeated by the Valyrians, Prince Garin the Great was captured, placed in a cage and forced as the dragons slaughtered his people and immolated his home city of Chroyane. Legend states that he called out to Mother Rhoyne to curse the Valyrians, and the city flooded with foul waters and a damp fog which caused their skin to harden and crack, giving birth to greyscale.[1][2]
