Game Of Thrones Prequel: 10 Legendary Characters We Hope To See
8. Durran Godsgrief And Elenei
Speaking of wet weddings, we come to Durran Godsgrief, the founder of House Durrandon and the builder of Storm's End, the present day seat of the Baratheons, and Durran's wife Elenei. Like the Grey King's mermaid wife, Elenei was "unique".
According to this particular legend, Elenei was the daughter of the sea god and the goddess of the wind, a pair particularly powerful parents. Elenei would give Durran the gift of her maidenhead and they would soon become married much to the chagrin of Elenei's folks.
So as punishment, the gods would destroy Durran's keep on their wedding night with terrible storms. Each time Durran would build a new keep the same thing would happen until the seventh castle, appropriately named Storm's End, held off the storms and the god's wrath. You know, that old chestnut. Everyday dating shenanigans people go through when dealing with uptight parents.
