While the Lannisters, Starks, Baratheons, and factions within Westeros are busy fighting over the Iron Throne in King’s Landing, House Greyjoy is taking the opportunity to extend their influence over the continent’s coastlines. No strangers to piracy and raiding, the Kraken is extending its tentacles far inland, ready to reap the benefits of armies away from home, leaving areas undefended against their quick assaults. A battlefield is an extremely noisy place. The clash of metal on metal. The thundering of the cavalry’s hooves. The screams of death. The Silenced Men, however, never utter a single sound. Made up entirely of mutes, they stalk silently around the battlefield, employing their swift speed to mete out a wordless death via their great axes. Even veteran troops are unnerved by the eerie silence that shrouds them.
