Character Overview
About Alys Rivers
Alys Rivers is the witch of Harrenhal: a bastard of the ruined castle's household whose sight reaches further than anyone around her is comfortable with.
She attaches herself to Prince Daemon Targaryen during his occupation of Harrenhal, reading him with an accuracy that unnerves the most dangerous man in the realm, and the castle's long future of fire and ghosts seems to hold no secrets from her at all.
