Sansa rape scene.
Someone’s probably made this connection before but fuck it. I’m 100% convinced now that hugor of the hill was azor ahai after finding this >https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swan_maiden>in literature, the swan maiden trope, also known as the “man on a quest for his lost wife” trope, is an old German story trope where a man makes a pact with, or marries, a supernatural female being who later departs and he must set off on a quest to find her.Hugor of the hill (aka hukko) killed the swan maidens as a sacrifice, George is secretly telling us that hugor nissa nissa’d his wife and that he is the same figure as huzor amai and azor ahai
What are some professions you'd like to see explored by a POV character in Westeros? George once said he considered a lawyer type character to explore the laws of the Seven Kingdom more. I also think a Stepton might be interesting.
>>25216316any of them really. it's strange that there's barely any mention of any sort of professional/middle class in westeros, even though we know they exist. we really only ever hear about the peasants and the nobility. but there are whole families of bankers, craftsmen, merchants etc.

Nissa Nissa died in childbirth

>>25216234Walk with me, my sweet summer child, and hear the tale of fat pink masts jutting into sopping wet myrish swamps and black nipples brushing against silk until her cunt became the world while in the privy the princess guzzled arbor gold and shat but the more she drank the more she shat until she was shitting brown water and around her the planks of the ship groaned like a fat man taking a shit while she cursed the gods and nuncle smiled as he broke his fast on black bread, bacon burned black, and mulled wine while capon-grease dribbled down his chin and onto the boiled leather of his jerkin for she was wet with love and did she not know words are wind and dark wings bring dark words and a lannister always pays her debts and mayhaps this is nothing but a mummers farce and useless as nipples on a breastplate and the princess has been fucking lancel and moonboy for all nuncle knows and he is the blood of the dragon for the night is dark and full of terrors but where do whores go and jon snow knows nothing and winter is coming and near enough makes no matter so nuncle smiled and dipped the heel of his bread into clam chowder and prayed for half a hundred more heh har HODOR

>>25217292he lost though
>>25216316Wizard through the ages. Some valyrian wizard living on the north side of the bay of crabs quietly, having moved in after the doom and kept to himself, mostly forgotten. The idea of him being a wizard is generally mocked except when people realise he hasn't aged in the 20 years or he sets fire to a raider. Shit, maybe he's a lord by then, I don't know.
>>25217391well technically...
>>25216259If Hugor of the Hill was Azor Ahai then who was the Blood Stone Emperor? Or are we going with that one cancelled show that only shot a pilot (becasue the main cast was white and all the children of the forest were black and brown actors) where it reveals the Andal invasion began at the same time the Long night started. Because to me that tells me Hugor of the Hill is far more sinister looking like pic related than the pic he was on the wiki.So Hugor meet up with the Nights Watch (remember it predates the long night and the creation of the Wall) and the is the last hero with his 13 companions, who are all wargs who were killed and then revived, like stoneheart, Beric etc to venture into the heart of winter and through diplomacy end the long night and build the wall with Other ice magic.
>>25217292he won so much he got tired of winning>hate Aerys because he took your crush's virginity>overthrow the Targaryen dynasty and kill his son and grandkids>put your daughter on the throne>she immediately begins acting like a Targaryen>refuse to accept that she might not be yours>die on the shitter
>>25217838>if Hugor of the Hill was Azor Ahai then who was the Blood Stone Emperor?We have the bloodstone worshipping a black stone that fell from the sky, and then we have hugor of the hill where “the father pulled down 7 stars to make his crown (in that storyboard pic you posted you can see the stones in his crown)”. Curiously enough he even has black stars in his crown in his official hbo description. The seventh ruler of the great empire of the dawn was the amethyst empress, who bloodstone usurped. The bloodstone emporer started the starry wisdom cult, the symbol of the faith is the seven pointed star. Hugor of the hill was probably the andals version of bloodstone, this wandering chieftain, only with all his actions filtered through a lense that sanitizes unsavory actions and paints him to be a hero and incorporates their theme of 7 into his tales, written later on. Instead of worshipping a Magic space rock that fell from the sky, it was the father who pulled down 7 fallen stars for his crown, just for fashion. Instead of killing his sister wife, he sacrificed the swan maidens to the 7. What the black rock that fell from the sky really was I think was a peice of the red comet that broke off and landed on planetos when it passed too close (so close it cracked the moon) We know that the red comet increases magic whenever it passes by, enabling miracles like dany hatching dragons. So having a peice of that magic by wearing a chunk of it in your crown would give you great powers, like raising wights, or setting your sword on fire and who knows what else. So the cancelled show might have been closer to the truth with the Andal invasion coinciding with the long night, only it was a kind of proto Andal invasion, happening after the first men made a pact with the children and before the true Andal invasions. Westeros was the last stop in a long march, a westward expanding conquest, with a fled or taken sister wife in the mix who ends up dead
How's Preston Jacobs' Winds? Worth starting?

Jonsa status?
The Second Dance of Dragons is the plot i'm most excited about but even if Winds came it will probably end with Dany just landing to Dragonstone.I want my Aegon vs Dany kino...
