Is it weird that we never meet (or even hear about) the Steward of the Red Keep in the novels? I imagine the most important castle in the kingdom would have a steward and that they would wield considerable influence within the day to day happenings of the court. Seems strange that they wouldn’t appear on page, especially given all the political turmoil over the course of the series. Just something Martin didn’t think was necessary back in the 90s?

It is a bit weird, but on the other hand, the King’s Landing cast is pretty overstuffed as it is.
