With the help of his uncle Duncan, who had risen from lowborn origins to become Castellan of Ironrath, Gared found work in Lord Forrester's stables, rising through the ranks to eventually be named his squire. Gared has served Lord Forrester throughout the long months in King Robb's army, and is ready to be a warrior in his own right."
