re: GOT Book Readers: Jon Snow question

---

The Kingsguard left KL with Rhaegar.

Aerys II's Kingsguard during Robert's Rebellion:

Dayne - was with Rhaegar at the Tower of Joy

Oswell Whent - ditto

Hightower - Lord Commander, he went to the ToJ to retrieve Rhaegar when things went badly. He was ordered to stay at ToJ with Dayne and Whent while Rhaegar took command of the army in the field.

Llewyn Martell - Killed at the Trident with Rhaegar

Barristan Selmy - Wounded, but survived the Battle at the Trident

Jonothor Darry - Killed at the Trident.

Gwayne Gaunt - Killed at Duskendale (The Defiance)

Jaime Lannister - was left to guard Aerys II - killed him, instead, for reasons many of us know, and earned the title Kingslayer

Ser Harlan Grandison had died earlier and Jaime was his replacement.
