Catelyn Stark - Catelyn Stark raised her hands and watched the blood run down her long fingers, over her wrists, beneath the sleeves of her gown. Slow red worms crawled along her arms and under her clothes. It tickles. That made her laugh until she screamed. "Mad," someone said, "she's lost her wits," and someone else said, "Make an end," and a hand grabbed her scalp just as she'd done with Jinglebell, and she thought, 'No, don't, don't cut my hair, Ned loves my hair.' Then the steel was at her throat, and its bite was red and cold.

Aerys declared fire the champion of house Targaryen and had Rickard hung from the rafters and roasted alive in his armor. Meanwhile, Brandon was put in a strangling device and forced to watch. A sword was placed just out of his reach. He was told that if he could reach the sword, he could save himself and his father. Brandon strangled himself to death.
54
Renly Baratheon - "She thought she glimpsed movement, but when she turned her head, it was only the king's shadow shifting against the silken walls. She heard Renly begin a jest, his shadow moving, lifting its sword, black on green, candles guttering, shivering, something was queer, wrong, and then she saw Renly's sword still in its scabbard, sheathed still, but the shadowsword...
