Urron Greyjoy paces along the planks of his longboat quietly, staring at the distant lights of the coastal town. He and his crew of one hundred had made their way towards the Riverlands coast, and reached their destination in the late hours of the day. Urron had sent a man ahead several days before to ensure the pillage would be worth it, and they anchored two miles upshore until true night fell. Surrounded by the fog, they hauled anchor and made their way towards the town again, the ship gliding through the sea like a phantom.
The flickering lights grew closer, and they landed on the beach a hundred yards away right as the sentries were changing watch; a convenience wrought by the Drowned God, in his mind. In a matter of seconds, a hundred roaring ironborn descended on the townspeople. Urron charged at the head of them, bringing his ax down quickly into a poor sentries skull, and then bashing the body free with his shield. They tore into the homes in a frenzy, killing men, children, and the women they didn't rape first.
Within minutes, the mass of the ironborn were heading for the central building, and most of the town was engulfed in flames. The hastily-assembled defenders pressed against the doorway, but the ironmen quickly overwhelmed them, tearing them apart with a dozen axes. As the last of the defenders fell, and a loud roar rose from Urron, announcing their victory. They took anything valuable from the town hall, set fire to it, and then dragged all of the bodies to the shore, casting them into the water for the Drowned God to take. Dragging several captives behind them, the men returned to their ship and slipped into the night, leaving only the dead to tell their tale.
