As I own neither Silentium nor Primordium at the moment (darn library has lost track of the latter), I can't check this for myself, though I'll take your word on it. Perhaps it might better to open this up to general discussion on the Librarian talk page? Because the hint that it could be Chants instead does seem to fit better with the events of Flood-Forerunner War. Tuckerscreator^(stalk) 01:04, 6 April 2013 (EDT)

Sounds good, best to get some general discussion on what this means or how reliable it is. We are talking about a heavily damaged, one hundred thousand year old rampant monitor, after all. -- SFH (talk) 01:09, 6 April 2013 (EDT)

The Seven Kingdoms are at war with one another... false kings destroying the country... the Usurper is dead. The Starks fight the Lannisters, the Baratheons fight each other." ―Daenerys Targaryen to Ser Jorah Mormont.[src]

The Seven Kingdoms are at war with one another... false kings destroying the country... the Usurper is dead. The Starks fight the Lannisters, the Baratheons fight each other." ―Daenerys Targaryen to Ser Jorah Mormont.[src] The War of the Five Kings is a major military conflict that erupts in the wake of the death of King Robert I. In essence, the war is a three-way battle for the Iron Throne fought alongside two independence movements. The five kings in question are Robert's heir, Joffrey Baratheon, Robert's two younger brothers, Stannis Baratheon and Renly Baratheon, Robb Stark, and Balon Greyjoy.

Upon Robert's death, his heir, Prince Joffrey, takes the Iron Throne, but the revelation that he along with his brother and sister are bastards born of incest between Queen Cersei and her twin brother, Ser Jaime Lannister, leads both of Robert's younger brothers, Stannis and Renly Baratheon, to claim the throne for themselves. Stannis sees himself as the rightful heir by right of blood, being Robert's heir with the removal of Joffrey, Myrcella, and Tommen due to their being bastards. Renly claims the throne on the basis that he would be a better king, despite being second to Stannis in the lawful line of succession.

Meanwhile, Robbyyyy Stark, Lord of Winterfell and Lord Paramount of the North, is declared the King in the North by his lords bannermen in the wake of the execution of his father, Eddard Stark, on false charges of treason.[1] Robb had been in command of a host marching south to free his then-imprisoned father and to relieve a Lannister attack on the Riverlands. As the King in the North, Robb declares that the North and the Riverlands (ruled by his maternal grandfather) are now a sovereign kingdom no longer subject to the rule of the Iron Throne.[2]

With the attention of the North and the Iron Throne diverted, Balon Greyjoy, Lord Reaper of Pyke and ruler of the Iron Islands, seizes the opportunity to declare the Iron Islands independent once more. He then styles himself King of the Iron Islands and launches raids in the North while most of its defenders are south of the Neck.
