“The day my father came to claim me, my mother did not wish for me to go. ‘She is a girl,’ she said, ‘and I do not think that she is yours. I had a thousand other men.’ He tossed his spear at my feet and gave my mother the back of his hand across the face, so she began to weep. ‘Girl or boy, we fight our battles,’ he said, ‘but the gods let us choose our weapons.’ He pointed to the spear, then to my mother’s tears, and I picked up the spear. ‘I told you she was mine,’ my father said, and took me.“

» Oberyn Martell 

He had traveled in the Free Cities, learning the poisoner’s trade and perhaps arts darker still, if rumours could be believed. He had studied at the Citadel, going so far as to forge six links of a maester’s chain before he grew bored. He had soldiered in the Disputed Lands across the narrow sea, riding with the Second Sons for a long time before forming his own company. His tourneys, his battles, his duels, his horses, his carnality… it was said he had bedded men and women both, and had begotten bastard girls all over Dorne. The sand snakes, men called his daughters.
