Rallying behind Loren were the disgruntled lords and priests, who sought to return to the Ironborn’s old ways of conquest and reaving, while Dagon’s rightful heir was backed by those that favored the reforms of their former liege. Like many the kingdom’s long history, the conflict was driven not by the rival claimants, but by the factions that had emerged behind them. Ultimately recognized as a clash of ideologies, the rebellion was the most recent - and to date the truest - test of the iron order established during the joint reign of Dagon Greyjoy and Alannys Harlaw as Lord and Lady of the Iron Islands. Defined by its self-contained nature as a civil war, it began shortly after the death of Lord Dagon Greyjoy and was fought over the succession of the Seastone Chair between the rightful Heir to the Iron Islands and the late Lord Reaper’s youngest brother, Loren Greyjoy. The Black Prophet’s Rebellion was an armed conflict in the Iron Islands from 432 to 434 AC, which occurred simultaneously with the three wars in Westeros that comprised the Bleeding.
