The Tullys of Riverrun were never kings, though the books of lineages will show any number of connections to the dynasties of the past. It may have been these old connections that started House Tully on its path to becoming Lords Paramount of the Trident under Aegon I.

So we learn that House Tully became Lords Paramount not because they were first of the riverlords to declare for Aegon the Conquerer but because of a claim to the kingdom of the Riverlands. But where did that claim originate?

Before the dragons came the Riverlands were ruled by House Hoare for three generations and before them by House Durrandon for 300 years. Before the Storm Kings it was House Teague and before them a myriad of other Houses from the Riverlands (Fisher, Justman, Bracken, Blackwood, Mudd).

House

We can rule out the Houses Bracken, Blackwood and Durrandon as the source of the Tully’s claim because these Houses still existed in the time of Aegon the Conquerer and their Lord’s claim thus would have been superior to the Tully’s claim (which only can originate from a woman married into House Tully).

From the remaining Houses the best bet for the source of the Tully’s claim is House Hoare as I will try to show here.

Our first hint:

Some even proposed that Lord Tully be granted dominion over the Iron Islands as well, though that did not come to pass.

What claim could House Tully possibly have on the Iron Islands if not one trough House Hoare?

The second hint:

New ties were forged, as when the new-made Lord Quenton Qoherys—once master-at-arms at Dragonstone, and by then lord of ruined Harrenhal and its sizable lands—took Lord Tully’s daughter to wife. (Though in later years this would prove a troublesome connection, alleviated only by the swift, sad end of House Qoherys).

Houses Of The Westerlands

If Lord Tully derived his claim on the Riverlands from a daughter of House Hoare you can see how the marriage of a Tully daughter to Lord Qoherys breeds trouble. Lord Qoherys can claim that his son is the rightful heir to the Riverlands because the claim is inherited through the female line.

Finally there are the weird actions of House Tully in the war with Harwyn ‘Hardhand’ Hoare:

A bold young knight named Samwell Rivers, a natural son of Tommen Tully, Lord of Riverrun, assembled a small host and met King Harwyn on the Tumblestone, but his lines shattered when the Hardhand charged. Hundreds drowned attempting to flee. Rivers himself was hacked in two, so that half his body might be delivered to each of his parents. Lord Tully abandoned Riverrun without a fight, fleeing with all his strength to join the host gathering at Raventree Hall under Lady Agnes Blackwood and her sons.

Why would Lord Tully abandon Riverrun? It is one of the most difficult to besiege castles in all of Westeros and the ironborn would stand almost no chance of conquering it. Just one passage earlier we are told that the most common tactic of the riverlords was to take shelter in their castles if the ironborn came.

Curiously after this excerpt no Tully is mentioned again until the end of the war but the defeat of Lady Agnes of Blackwood reeks of treachery even if it is not outright said:

But when Lady Agnes advanced upon the ironborn, her belligerent neighbor Lord Lothar Bracken fell upon her rear with all his strength and put her men to flight. Lady Agnes herself and two of her sons were captured and delivered to King Harwyn, who forced the mother to watch as he strangled her boys with his bare hands.

Nothing at all is said about the Tully host which should have been a part of the Lady Agnes’ host. Any Blackwood would not be surprised by an attack of the Brackens, their feud is legendary after all, but a betrayal by the Tullys might explain why Lady Agnes was defeated so swiftly and why she and her kin were all taken alive.

TL:DR: Lord Tully made common cause with Harwyn Hoare and betrayed the Blackwoods. The alliance was sealed by the marriage of Lord Tully or his son to a daughter of Harwyn Hoare.
