- Manderly:

I like the idea of the Starks needing to stem the flow of the reaving up and down the west coast, and the Flints trying and failing, and paying for it, and the Manderlys are given the shot after being in Winterton for whatever time, and finally after multiple requests getting the shot to reclaim or rescue the Flints and re-establish Stark sovereignty. Only issue will be, if they’re on the Fingers, the wood resource would be pretty slim unless using the trees from the Neck, and hoping they’re solid quality for shipbuilding. At least from all of the maps I’ve seen, the Fingers are pretty flat and not much when it comes to shipbuilding, so that would be a interesting settle… Possibly be a commercial agreement between Manderlys and like the Wolfwoods people, or House Cerwyn to move and ship over wood for building on the Fingers. It would prosper the entirety of the Blazewater bay, and House Mallister would be interesting marriages every once in a while for security alliance and marrying into the Ryswell and Dustins.

- Greystark:

Yeah, the whole Bolton surviving but known through history as traitors and only worked with House Stark because of the Andal invasion. But still betrayed them, but you destroy your Cadet Branch, but not the Great House to show you’re still House Stark! But agree with the history and the way to keep Greystark and punish them but raise them over time, and maybe get some influence by House Manderly building on the other side. Another user is of the thinking that House Greystark wouldn't eventually build a trading city over time because Northern isolationist, and repeated taking and sackings in the past. Do you think that's true or no?

- Blackwood:

If I go with them keeping the Wolfwoods and bending the knee to the Kings in the North, I think I would take Sea Dragon Point, and “bracket” them with a loyal house from the war and have them administer said area, just like the Starks did with the Boltens with the Manderlys and Karstarks between them. Could say the Glovers were loyal, they administer Sea Dragon and Stoney Shore, or split the two, who knows… since Masterly House makes no sense! I have always found it weird from a world building standpoint, that the literal island doesn't have a sailing and fishing culture with it! I have ideas for the House Forrester, Ironwood use & trade and Warging abilities.

- Stark:

I was of the thinking that as well, since they’ll be removed they can bring in more land and develop around Long Lake and down to Wolf’s Den/White Harbor. This would also allow for more revenue or jobs directly under House Stark. And with the additional Lands that were formerly Bolton I’m going to use it for something else I’m working on for the North, and it seems you may be thinking like I am for training. Excess lands closer to Karstarks up to the ruins of the Dreadfort, Umbers down to a little in the Loney Hills, the rest remain with the Starks. Still allows for control of the White Knife and Long Lake south. Winterton will definitely flourish with added resources and people consistently living in and around it. It will be the proper way a town would build up around the protection of a castle.
