The Frozen Shore is a stretch of coastline that sits on the Bay of Ice beyond the Wall.[1]
History
The ironborn of antiquity controlled the Sunset Sea from the Frozen Shore to the Arbor.[2] Wildlings from the Frozen Shore have raided Bear Island.[3]
Some accounts state gods of snow and ice are worshipped in the Frozen Shore.[4]
During the reign of King Dorren Stark, Redwyn of the Night's Watch claimed he encountered giants and children of the forest while ranging from the Shadow Tower to Lorn Point.[5][6]
Before Mance Rayder negotiated a peace, the men of the Frozen Shore fought with those of the ice-river clans.[7]
