Os Segundos Filhos são uma companhia de mercenários encontrada nas Cidades Livres. Em Yunkai, onde foram contratados para encarar Daenerys Targaryen e suas forças, eles eram aproximadamente quinhentos homens. Seu estandarte é uma espada quebrada. [1] Seu acampamento é um círculo de tendas irregulares. Há uma tenda que serve como cozinha. A tenda de Ben Plumm tem paredes de tela pintada rachadas e desgastadas por anos de sol e chuva. Dentro da tenda, há bancos de acampamento e uma mesa de cavalete, prateleiras de lanças e alabardas, e um chão coberto com tapetes puídos em meia dúzia de cores conflitantes. [2]

História

Os Segundos Filhos estão entre as mais velhas das companhias livres. Eles não gostam da reputação brilhante da Companhia Dourada, mas tiveram algumas famosas vitórias. 400 years ago the Segundos Filhos stood in defense of Qohor along with the Brilhantes Estandartes company, Against the first Dothraki khalasar to venture east since the queda de Valíria. However they suffered a defeat and fled the battle field, though the battle was later won by the Três Mil de Qohor. [3]

Under the command of Mero, whose evil reputation is known even in Westeros, they turned near as bad as the Bravos Companheiros. Mero’s reputation has fallen to the point where none of the Cidades Livres will hire him any longer. [1] That is why the Segundos Filhos are in Yunkai when Daenerys marches on the city. They have fought in the Terras Disputadas.

Cultura

Os nomes de todos os homens que servem são escritos em um livro, quandos se juntam a companhia. No livro, ainda é escrito quando eles entraram na companhia, onde eles lutaram, como foram suas mortes. Os Segundos Filhos estão em seu quarto livro. O livro tem capa de couro e dobradiças de ferro. Dentro as pesadas bordas de madeira estão nomes e datas que vão além de um século. A tradição da companhia é assinar em tinta vermelha. Houve um tempo em que cada novato escrevia seu nome em cangue, mas a tradição sumiu já que sangue era uma tinta ruim. Há nomes famosos nos livros, alguns dos Sete Reinos. Aegor Rivers serviu um ano com eles, antes de ele partir para procurar a Companhia Dourada. O Príncipe Brilhante, Aerion Targaryen, e Rodrik Stark, o Lobo Andarilho, também serviram. [4] Atualmente, com a adição de Tyrion e Jorah Mormont, seu número de membros é quinhentos e catorze. [4]

As dívidas de Tyrion Lannister para os Segundos Filhos

Part of Tyrion’s negotiations with Ben Plumm for becoming a Segundo Filho included becoming indebted to them. Just prior to signing the Segundos Filhos book Tyrion is handed a pile of roughly 50 to 60 promissory notes to sign. Tyrion remarks that only 1 in 10 Segundo Filho receives a promissory note. Tybero "Tinteiros" Istarion hands him a quill, and ink from Antiga Volantis - which he tells Tyrion will last as long as maesters' black. Tyrion signs each note Tyrion da Casa Lannister and passes them one at a time to Inkpots, who dusts each one with fine sand. [4]

As notas promissórias:

To the serjeants: parchments promising to pay the bearer of the note 100 golden dragons Below the serjeants’ notes the amounts suddenly grow larger, Tyrion is starting to pay the bearer 1,000 gold dragons. The last three notes are made out by name: A Kasporio, o Astuto: written in fine vellum, promising 10,000 dragons A Tybero Istarion: written in fine vellum, promising 10,000 dragons A Ben Mulato Plumm: inscribed upon a sheepskin scroll, promising 100,000 golden dragons, 50 hides of fertile land, a castle, and a lordship.

After he is done signing the promissory notes Ben Mulato tells Tyrion that it is time to make him one o’ them and gets Tinteiros to fetch the Segundos Filhos book. Tinteiros brings the book and unstops a pot of red ink, however Tyrion elects to sign in the traditional way - in blood. He explains to Tinteiros that Lannisters love tradition and to lend him his knife. He pricks the ball of his thumb and squeezes out a fat drop of blood into the inkpot, trades the dagger for a quill, and scrawls Tyrion da Casa Lannister, Senhor de Rochedo Casterly, in a big bold hand, just below Sor Jorah Mormont's more modest signature. Tinteiros then turns the book around and dusts the page with a bit of fine sand. [4]

Arsenal

The Segundos Filhos ferreiro is Martelo; seu aprendiz é Prego. The Segundos Filhos keep their company armour in six big wayns drawn up near the center of their camp. Under roofs of bent wood and stiffened leather, the wagon beds are heaped high with old weaponry and armour. Most of the iron is not very good; it is not just old and ill-fitting but dented, cracked and brittle with dried blood or rust. According to Sor Jorah Mormont, there is some sound steel in there, none of it is pretty, but it will stop a sword. [4] Some of the armor in the wayns are what sellswords were wearing when they died and some of it is made to fit boys. Sor Jorah Mormont clads himself from head to heel in company steel. His greaves are mismatched, his gorget is spotted with rust, his vambraces rich and ornate, inlaid with niello flowers. On his right hand is a gauntlet of lobstered steel, on his left a fingerless mitt of rusted mail. The nipples on his muscled breastplate have a pair of iron rings through them. His greathelm sports a ram’s horns, one of which is broken. [4]

Upon entering one of the wayns, Tyrion and Merreca find a rusted iron half-helm and then a greathelm, a crossbow, a morningstar, a warhammer, a studded mace, and half a dozen longswords. Tyrion finds a dirk he likes - a nasty piece of steel with a triangular blade with a bit of rust on it. He finds a wood and leather sheath that fits and slips the dirk inside. He remarks that the longsword Penny picks up is notched, denoting that it is cheap steel. He examines a heavy shirt of iron mail so full of holes it almost looks moth eaten. The Second Sons' company steel is worse than what he fought in at the Batalha do Ramo Verde. [4]

The Second Sons were employed by Yunkai to defend them against the threat of Daenerys Targaryen. They were placed on the left of the defensive line that faced Daenerys's army. they were commanded by Mero, known as the Titan's Bastard. Mero attended the parley with Daenerys and decided to mull her offer of switching sides or departing only on the condition that she give him a wagon of wine. He brought the wine back to his men and while they were getting drunk on it that night, Daenerys sent her forces on the attack. The Second Sons were routed and Mero fled before he could be captured. [1] The remaining sellswords voted Brown Ben Plumm as their new commander. They then joined Daenerys Targaryen's army. [5]
