Return To Riverspring To Find The Documents You Need

Objective Point A
View Map

You arrive in Riverspring looking for your father’s secret documents that will denounce Valarr and his claim to your throne. Head straight for Riverspring Castle. Victor the ferryman intercepts you and thanks you for saving his life during the riots. He offers to ferry you anytime; he’s located on the docks for when the time comes for a boat ride.

Tip

Now is also a good time to see how your past actions have affected Riverspring. Some people you saved may be waiting for you in the city. The faction you helped the most during the riots will add a new merchant: the noble shop is in the port, the villager shop is in the marketplace, and the guard shop is in the castle courtyard.

Objective Point B
View Map

Enter the main castle gates to find your sister Elyana. She might have information on your father’s practices and these mysterious documents. Go through the courtyard and then enter the castle proper.

Book Watch: Riverspring

Although Riverspring isn’t a notable city in the novel, its location puts it squarely in the midst of the major events transforming Westeros. It lies in the Riverlands almost directly between two major cities: west of the capital King’s Landing and east of the Lannister’s Casterly Rock. Just north of the Goldroad, we see that Riverspring is a busy place in the game, and the Sarwycks are behind-the-scenes lords who have influenced politics for many generations.
