Asha tries to bring her mother’s family to her aid in gaining the Seastone Chair. But she  hadn’t heard of her uncle Aeron’s call to a Kingsmoot. She thinks she can win by force of reason, but her family think that uncle Euron’s wealth and magic might prevail. Mackelly and Simon rattle Nagga’s bones.

Chapter Review
Asha Greyjoy is on Harlaw, the wealthiest and most populous of the Iron Islands. Her mother was a Harlaw, and their Lord Rodrik has called his bannermen to support Asha’s claim to the Seastone Chair. There are many, but Asha’s knows deep down that there aren’t enough.

She arranges for her captives, the Glovers, to be treated with respect and her men to be properly fed. She then seeks out her uncle who, as is his wont, is reading. Rodrik tells her of Aeron’s plan to host a Kingsmoot on Great Wyk. This is news to Asha. Euron will go, there is no word from Victarion. She believes she can convince the captains, as the only descendent of Balon. But Rodrik warns her not to go. They’ll never accept a woman, Euron has already moved to bribe and intimidate the captains, and the history of Kingsmoots suggests that the losers don’t get to leave in one piece.

She takes her leave, knowing that despite his protestations, her uncle will be there. She meets Tristifer Botley, a childhood friend. He professes his love for her, but she denies it. He’s saving himself for her, she’s doing nothing of the sort. He’s a lord now, worthy of her hand. But she tells him no. When he grabs at her, her knife is at his throat before he can blink. She’s not his wife, she’s his queen.
