Concerning the Rhoynar, how does this figure relate to the supposed 250 000 soldiers that died under Garin’s command given the 1% Rule?

1. Keep in mind that Nymeria’s refugees were not military-aged males when they left. Most of her army was made up of women who’d learned to fight and children who’d aged into military service during the journey.

2. That suggests that the population of the Rhoynar prior to their destruction by the Valyrians was around 25 million, so that Nymeria managed to save around 2-4% of the population.
