The castle garrison, commanded by Robert's brother Stannis, was reduced to eating dogs and rats and were on the verge of resorting to cannibalism when they were saved by a shipload of onions, smuggled into the castle by the noted smuggler Davos. Дuring Robert Baratheon's rebellion, Storm's End was besieged for over a year by the forces of House Tyrell, who had remained loyal to the Mad King, Aerys II Targaryen. The castle is said to be protected by spells woven into its walls that prevent magic from penetrating its defenses. Its seaward wall is 80 feet thick with a 150 feet drop into the sea below. One of the mightiest fortresses on the entire continent, Storm's End has endured many sieges but has never fallen to any attacker in its millennia-long history. Argilac was defeated, and Orys Baratheon took Argilac's domains, sigil, motto and daughter, becoming the founder of House Baratheon The last of the Storm Kings, Argilac the Arrogant, left the safety of his stronghold and met Baratheon in open battle. When Aegon the Conqueror invaded Westeros, he sent his commander and rumored half-brother, Orys Baratheon, to take Storm's End. Storm's End became the seat of the rulers of the Stormlands, the Storm Kings, for millennia. Durran's seventh keep, built allegedly with the aid of Bran the Builder, withstood the rage of Elenei's parents and gained the name of Storm's End. Durran defied the gods and built a larger and more formidable keep, but it was also destroyed. In rage, the two gods sent massive storms to destroy Durran's keep. Storm's End's construction was attributed to Durran, a legendary figure of the Age of Heroes, who earned the hatred of the sea god and the wind goddess when he took Elenei, daughter of the two gods, as his wife.
