History[]

When Dorna was younger her father borrowed large sums of money from Lord Tytos Lannister. After the War of the Ninepenny Kings, Ser Tywin Lannister, the heir to Casterly Rock, demanded that all those who took loans from House Lannister had to repay them immediately. Those unable to do so had to surrender a family member as hostage until they were able to do so.

Ser Harys Swyft, unable to pay at the time, handed Dorna over to the custody of Ser Kevan Lannister. The two were eventually married.
