Uniting the Resistance

Clash with Tyrell remnants at Hellholt

The day after the Heroes departed Sandstone, Dragen Redsand rallied resistance allies and sailed east through the Red Sands of Dorne, not only to support Dornish independence against the Targaryens but to come to the aid of Brim and his allies. 

A few days after defeating the Tyrell remnants at Hellholt, Dragen and his sand ships arrived in Vaith and with the help of young lord Dyron Vaith, took possession of a barge and sailed unimpeded up the Greenblood waters to the Goldsands Mercantile docks.
