Areo eventually became the captain of Prince Doran's guard, and remained in Dorne to serve the Martell's even after Mellario returned to Norvos.
Īreo watched all of Doran and Mellario's children grow up, and developed a father-like love for Princess Arianne Martell, whom he refers to as "little princess." Despite this affection, however, he is utterly loyal to Prince Doran. Areo entered the service of House Martell, and Mellario married Doran. He also thought the Dornish sun was hotter than the pale, wan sun of Norvos. Upon arrival in Dorne, Areo found it a strange place the Dornish women were lewd, Dornish wine was sour, and Dornish food was full of queer hot spices. He escorted Mellario when she traveled with Prince Doran to Dorne, having learned Westerosi speech. He became a guardsman to the family of Lady Mellario, and was present the day she first met her future husband, Prince Doran Martell. He was wedded to his axe and branded on his chest to signify the event. When he was sixteen years old, he completed his training. He was sold to the bearded priests at a young age. HistoryĪreo was born in Norvos as the youngest of six children. He still wears his norvoshi halfhelm but wrapped it in orange silk to avoid the sun beating down on the metal which caused him headaches. Nowadays, he wears a shirt of copper scales with a billowing cloak of dun-and-yellow sandsilk to keep the sun off the copper. When he arrived in Dorne, he quickly realized he had to change his clothing to acclimatize to the Dornish sun. In Norvos, Areo wore a heavy horsehair cape and a studded leather tunic and an iron halfhelm with a crest of sharpened spikes.
He bears a longaxe that has a shaft six feet long. Appearance See also: Images of Areo HotahĪreo is broad-shouldered with white hair.
