History
House Swann is an old noble house, regarded as proud, powerful and cautious. They have governed their lands for as long as any can remember. From Stonehelm they control the Slayne, a major river route inland to the stormlands, gaining them much wealth and power. They are probably the second most powerful and influential family in the stormlands, after the Baratheons. The Swanns and Carons both claim to be the oldest of the marcher lords.
