There’s no denying the fact that Westeros is a brutal place. From assassins to sellswords, the events ofHouse of the DragonandGame of Throneshave made it pretty clear that it is a brutal world.
With brothers fighting brothers,George R. R. Martin introduced the world to Sandor and Gregor Clegane. But many years before them, it was Ser Erryk and Ser Arryk Cargyll, and their story, is a tragic one.
Ser Erryk Fell On His Sword For Two Reasons
It might seem at first that Ser Erryk Cargyll (portrayed by Elliott Tittensor) fell on his own sword because of guilt. Having to kill his own brother because of two different royal families, the guilt was heavy on Ser Erryk’s mind.
However, as we know withGame of ThronesandHouse of the Dragon,everything is not what it seems. Although Erryk Cargyll had a real sense of honor in his purpose (which is rare in Westeros), the end for the twin brothers was not pretty.
