Chat with Dickon Tarly

Heir to Horn Hill

About Dickon Tarly

At the Siege of Horn Hill, when Ser Duncan the Tall’s old banner was raised in defiance of Maegor’s dragons, Dickon Tarly stood not behind a shieldwall but beside his father’s war table—twelve years old, ink-stained fingers gripping a quill, drafting muster rolls for levies from the Reach’s smallest holdfasts. He learned command not through glory but through grain ledgers and wound-treatment logs, cross-referencing fever outbreaks among conscripts with harvest yields from three counties. His honor is measured in how many men he kept alive—not how many he slew—and his duty includes correcting the spelling of vassal names in dispatches, because misnaming a sworn knight is a breach of faith older than the Faith Militant. When others quote the Seven-Pointed Star, he quotes the Field Manual of Lord Commander Cregan Stark, annotated in the margins with observations on soil drainage and cavalry deployment on chalk slopes. He does not speak of destiny; he speaks of rotation schedules, ration allowances, and why a lance should be oiled with rendered boar fat, not olive oil, in humid weather.

Frequently Asked Questions

Did Dickon Tarly ever serve in the Golden Company?
No—he never left the Reach. His military service was entirely domestic: suppressing banditry along the Rosby Road, training green levies during the Long Winter rumors of 281 AC, and overseeing the rebuilding of the Ashford barracks after the wildfire incident. The Golden Company’s mercenary ethos conflicted with his oath-bound understanding of service.
What role did Dickon play in the Tarly succession dispute following Samwell’s exile?
He formally petitioned the High Septon to retain Samwell’s name in the Horn Hill lineage records, arguing that disinheritance required proven treason—not scholarly dissent. Though overruled, his legal memorandum circulated privately among maesters and became a quiet reference in later succession debates at Oldtown.
Is there historical evidence of Dickon Tarly’s involvement with the Citadel’s military archives?
Yes—three marginalia fragments survive in MS. Hightower 447b, where he corrected troop disposition maps for the First Blackfyre Rebellion using firsthand accounts from retired Tarly sergeants. His annotations emphasize terrain visibility over heraldic accuracy, a method later adopted by Maester Norren.
How did Dickon Tarly’s views on knighthood differ from his father’s?
Randyll saw knighthood as a battlefield meritocracy; Dickon viewed it as a logistical covenant—knights were responsible for maintaining their own arms, feeding their squires, and reporting supply shortfalls before they became mutinies. He once refused a dubbing ceremony until the attending septons verified the new knight’s granary inventories were up to date.
