But Hallyne, the former pyromancer and the man most versed in wildfire, had also disappeared.

It seems the fugitive took quite a full complement of subordinates along. Boros may be incompetent, but at least his position isn't as awkward as Balon's, Gendry thought.

"In view of House Lannister's manifest treason, Tywin Lannister is stripped of the honors of duke and Warden of the West, his authority over Casterly Rock, and all revenues from his fiefs. His son Jaime Lannister, his daughter Cersei Lannister, and his brother Kevan Lannister are likewise stripped of their honors and titles. Any lords of the Westerlands who persist in resistance shall also be charged with treason and stripped of their lands, castles, and all revenues from their fiefs. Those who reflect and repent may yet preserve their estates through the king's boundless mercy." The Master of Laws, Bronze Yohn, first announced the initial measures. "Varys, the Master of Whisperers, sowed discord and aided House Lannister's treason, committing a most heinous offense. He is stripped of his title and shall be sentenced to death."

Then came the second decree. "Balon Greyjoy rebelled repeatedly in earlier years and defied royal commands. He received the late King Robert's pardon and the tolerance of Eddard, Warden of the North. Rather than repent in the face of such favor, he repaid kindness with enmity, plundering the North and brutalizing the kingdom's people. To punish Balon's grievous treason, he is stripped of his authority over Pyke and all revenues from his fiefs. His brothers and children are stripped of all their powers. The lords of the Iron Islands are likewise stripped of all their powers. Any Ironborn captains who collude with Balon and refuse to repent shall be executed alongside him when their castles fall."
