Westeros is a big realm, and fans of Game of Thrones aren’t expected to know every city that factors into the plot. Sure, the major landmarks are shown in the opening sequence like Winterfell, King’s Landing, and The Wall, but often smaller towns like Pennytree, Acorn Hall, or the Stepstones can fall through the cracks.

In fact, even those intimately familiar with Tumbleton could still be confused because that town isn’t supposed to come into play until much later. So what is the Battle of Tumbleton, and how has it changed from the source material?
