"The Rains of Castamere" is a song features in A Song of Ice and Fire and its TV adaptation Game of Thrones, which immortalizes the destruction of House Reyne of Castamere by Tywin Lannister. House Reyne was obliterated after they rebelled against their liege lord, Tytos Lannister, who was perceived as weak by his own vassals. To restore Lannister dominance, Tytos's son, Tywin, marched against the upstart Lord Reyne. By the end of the rebellion, Castamere had been put to the torch and all members of House Reyne executed. The title is thus a play on words, as the "rains" fall over the empty halls of the "Reynes" who have been killed to the last man.

  • This song is based on the Reynes of Castamere, one of two houses extinguished "root and branch" by a young Tywin Lannister. The other house was Tarbeck of Tarbeck Hall. Some years later, Tywin, sensing dissent from Lord Farman of Faircastle, sent a player with a lute rather than a letter as a reminder of what befalls any who go against the power of Casterly Rock. The song is as follows:
