[edit] Article error, or contradiction in the book?

The Tourney at Blackhaven has Duncan Targaryen defeating Barristan Selmy in 248 AL

6 Years later, Barristan is knighted at 16 years of age as per the Winter Tourney at King's Landing. That would mean that in 248, Barristan was 10 years old, and not yet knighted

Cyron, could you elaborate? Wherein lies is the error or contradiction? Arbor 16:18, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
Well that would mean that at 10 years of age, Barristan entered the Tourney at Blackhaven as a Mystery knight. The age is too young for anyone to be a mystery knight, and it would also involve pretending to be a knight when he has yet to be knighted, something sufficiently far out of character for this person that it would be noteworthy.

His age (10) and the designation "mystery knight" are given in his entry in the White Book. See the appropriate Jaime chapter in SoS. Arbor 16:09, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
Right you are. Sorry for the needless trouble :) Cyron 19:49, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tourney at Storm's End

There seems to be alot wrong with this entry since there are the two discriptions; also chronologically it should come before Harrenhall since in the WB it's just before Robert's Rebellion. After Silver bridge and Maidenpool anyways. Also several people are noted as being beeten twice, and Steffon was likely also dead at the time since the WB has Barristan unhorsing Lord Robert. I'm thinking either Barristan got really mixed up or two tournies got mushed together here. what's everyone elses thoughts here? Cybroleach 06:03, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Grey Lion and Arlan of Pennytree at Lannisport

Where does it say that the Grey Lion was a mystery knight when Arlan unhorsed him?
