After the Good Masters of Astapor accepted Daenerys’s offer to trade one of her dragons for all of Astapor’s Unsullied, Daenerys revealed that she had deceived them and instead ordered her dragons and the Unsullied to attack the masters.

? ?? 309 Red Wedding

Alarmed by the Ironborn invasion of the North and the desertion of the Karstarks, Robb Stark traveled to the Twins in an attempt to regain the support of Walder Frey, who had withdrawn his support for the North’s cause when Robb reneged on his promise to marry one of Walder’s daughters. To placate Walder, Robb arranged the marriage of Edmure Tully to one of the Frey daughters instead, but at the wedding banquet Walder’s forces, supported by the treacherous Boltons, suddenly attacked and killed Robb’s wife Talisa, Robb himself, and his mother Catelyn, as well as many Stark retainers. The betrayal was orchestrated by Tywin Lannister, who had agreed to grant the Freys Riverrun and the Boltons the North in return for their support. see external link

? ?? 309 Battle of Yunkai

After sacking Astapor, Daenerys Targaryen traveled north to Yunkai, where she convinced the mercenary leader Daario Naharis and his Second Sons to join her cause. That night, Daario, accompanied by Ser Jorah Mormont and Grey Worm of the Unsullied, entered Yunkai by the rear gate and quickly captured the city when Yunkai’s slave soldiers surrendered. The following morning, Daenerys proclaimed to the slaves of Yunkai that they were freed, becoming in turn revered by them as their “Mhysa” (mother). see external link
