RIP DUNKprevious>>218084015
Has GRRM ever actually spoken out about the poor quality of GoT S8 or HOTD S2?

Did he actually get resurrected by the seven
>>218088657Dunno about got but he complained about hotd several times.
>>218088657He defended got but hates hotd

>>218088638Uncanny
>>218088759I like breaking bad but that shot is silly. it also doesn't make sense for Walt to break down in that moment or for that reason
>>218088638does /teevee/ read fanfics? i recommend these 3, post others you liked if you read them>Reborn in a Cruel WorldMaegor the Cruel SI, modern guy that read the books reincarnates as Aegon the Conqueror's second son. Maegor eventually goes over to Essos to conquer and leaves Westeros to Aenys' line. The main source of conflict is between the women much like HotD>A Falcon of SummerJon Arryn has a healthy son older than that retard Sweetrobin. Lots of differences from canon GoT that are fun to read about. Joffrey gets disinherited, Myrcella betrothed to MC Arryn, Cersei completely unhinged, Tywin becomes Lord Commander of the Wall, Bran does some crazy greenseer shit, Robert goes to Essos and gets named Blessed of the Seven>Raiders of the Lost CityGerion Lannister's shipwreck is believed to be found, Tywin thinks he found Brightroar the Valyrian steel sword. He sends Tyrion on a voyage to Gogossos the city of fleshsmiths in Sothoryo the green jungle hell. He goes with The Hound, Davos Seaworth, Asha Greyjoy, Bronn, ex-maester QyburnThis one has the most well-written prose and the original story is like an Indiana Jones adventure
AKOTSK is going to be asoiaf Fellowship of the Ring. Original GoT is going to lose popularity.
>>218088710Was he wrong tho?
>>218088828still a weird thing to say
can someone who is well-versed in deep asoiaf lore explain what in the fuck did lyonel mean by this
>>218088857his homosexuality is a result of his deep seated hatred for his mother
>>218088789Thats when Hank bought it no? Yeah kind of weird that's how he took it.
>>218088789It wasn't JUST about Hank. He was realizing that EVERYTHING he worked for was crumbling in front of him. he lost his brother, he lost his squire Jessie, and he lost all the money, and for all he knew those guys could easily kill him and the rest of his family too, just to tie up the loose ends. He just kinda got lucky that Ser Todd of Two Pies respected him enough to talk them down, and leave him a cut of the money
>>218088857Plain old projection if you ask me.
>>218088857There's like ten layers to it. He means it literally for one, because Maekars whole existence is that he's the 4th son (look at his crest too). Baelor and Maekars mother is Dornish, and Baelor the firstborn, takes after her features. Its just the nature unfortunate reality that Baelor would get more of the mothers affection, even subconsciously from her by accident.Then you have the Dunk of Flea Bottom aspect, where when he reawakens (the flashback making it very clear that dunk misses his mother, and Ser Arlan shouting IN THE NAME OF THE MOTHER), and he becomes his fierce dirty self who would do anything to succeed. The flashback again, makes it known Dunk always needed someone else and wanted a mommy.Those are the direct literal interpretations, I'm not typing out the indirect ones
>>218088857mothers are the theme of the whole episode, watch it again
>>218088857Zesty alpha males can say whatever the fuck they want
>>218088857
Have any commoners ever just pretend to bastards? Like being a Rivers or Storm is better than being nobody
>>218088857dunk grew up without a mother, life hits him hard, he gets back up and hits harderalso maekar felt he didn't recieve as much love as Baelor because he was a fourthborn
I like both HOTD and A Knight of The Seven Kingdoms…
>>218088857This is not the case, but I like to think Lyonel had no real idea what he was saying and upon doing so was internally cringing though had to stick by it to save face.
>>218088956>I like both HOTD and A Knight of The Seven Kingdoms…I'm afraid that is not permitted...
>>218088952>>218088857I don't know but the words "fight so fierce" really remind me of Arlan's drunken chaotic fighting style
>>218088940>Bro we’re about to die dawg are you fr?
>>218088942read the fucking books, faggot
>>218088857There are two brothers fighting and his side got the one who was mommy's favorite
Is it a bad idea to start my asoiaf foray with Fire & Blood?
>>218088638i wish you didnt die ser!
>>218088968Idk I just like dragons. Aemond and Daemon are cool. I also like a good humble story with Dunk and Egg.
Would you rather be>A slave in Volantis>A peasant on Bolton lands>A thrall in the Iron Islands>A gutter rat in KL>A servant in Asshai
>>218089006Personally I just start with the first book but it’s up to you. Just good Targ lore
>>218089026> A gutter rat in KL>A servant in AsshaiOne of these 2
>>218089026A slave in Volantis and then I just feed my owner a bunch of modern knowledge and use his starting capital to really rape grrm's setting.
>GET UP
Everytime GRRM cooks kino God flips a coin
>>218088680If the seven are the gods everyone never took seriously but it turns out in the end they were the spoilers who fucked up all the other gods' plans and win in the end would be the most based possible story gurm could tell.
piss drunk arlan rolling out of a bar, puking, and then killing 2 gold cloaks is so fucking baller
The virgin new GRRM>MUH GARDEN>IT WILL COME TO ME>30 side projects >I CANT INCREASE MY BOOKS >makes Elden Ring so somewhat forgiven>MUH BLOGThe Chad young GRRM>40 plotlines going on>took notes>literally no plans just kino>could have made Elden Ring and this>no blog just God
So as the new greenseer is Bran still strictly speaking just him or does it work a bit like being the Autarch in BotNS?
>>218089037It would be sort of based to have zero knowledge of the plot, read Fire and Blood, then read GoT without knowing any spoilers.
>>218088956Based
>>218088678https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VC_O0vqdO-cHere's a semi rare one
Do you think his girlfriend called him Bae?
>>218089202Such Strong boys
>>218089180It's a twofold problem. On the one hand he's older and its possible his mind/energy just isn't up to the task of finishing the monstrosity he's created. At the same time he's now able to enjoy tremendous wealth and success that he didn't have when he still needed to make word count or starve so there's fuck all motivation. I'm really curious though whether or not how badly the show ended has made him not want to show that it really was entirely his ending after all.
Daemon and Rhaenyra back in the red keep
>>218089212Was ordering all the bastards killed actually a smart move? Given the questions about his legitimacy it did seem like the right thing to do strategically
>>218089218Better question is did Bittersteel call him Gae?
>>218088684He probably blames himself for GoT not having a clear direction besides whatever he wrote down on a grease stained napkin decades ago
>>218088940>Lyonel, there something you want to get off your chest man?
I am your man. Please. Your man.
>>218089245>how badly the show ended has made him not want to show that it really was entirely his ending after all.Of course this is it. He's too much of a pussy to piss off all the vicious Daenerys cat mom dykes out there and stick to his guns and do a good version of that ending which they never would have done without his input. At the same time, he's also too much of a pussy to retcon HBO and throw his lucrative TV handlers under the bus. He's never releasing either one
Don’t worry Dunk I need good men>fucking dies
>>218089294
>>218089218
>>218089218God it’s a little scary even in the face shot you can tell something is wrong with his head. It’s so subtle and slight but if you really you can tell. It’s like how his eyes being different colors show wise
>>218089255the biggest regret of daemon's life has to be not railing rhaenyra when she was a teenagerunbelievable
Reddit slop
>>218089352>implying he didn’t
>>218089304There’s a super schizo theory that GRRM finished the books or at least a rough draft from Winds to Sprint but is gonna release them when he dies so he doesn’t have to deal with the controversy.
Hotd Season 2 has eight episodes to cover the battle of the Gullet, the fall of Kings landing, Daeron’s campaign with the Hightowers, the battles between the Lannisters northmen and Rivermen, criston Cole’s campaign and the butchers ball, the red kraken, Daemon burning half the river lands, and I assume the battle of Tumbleton. They’re going to cut out a lot of shit. What do you think they’ll keep?
>>218089369Nigger Goyium
>>218089369sounds like you're due for a rewatch
>>218089388>What do you think they’ll keep?sexy lesbian makeouts (Alicent/Rhaenyra) and lesbian cuckoldry (Mysaria)
>>218089388You mean 3?
>>218089396>>218089360>>218089369Whoops sorry anon
>>218089349You can almost see his thoughts
>>218088828>>218088857He's wrong, the most based warriors in all of human history, myth and legends had mothers who loved them almost incestuously
Book Jon Snow is the best character in the whole series because much like Dunk he really ask how you be a hero in a complicated world?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_ngnCGojpEbald libtard finally doing his job
>let Jon enjoy his last days>I will tell him myselfreminder that Ned forced Jon to go to the Wall and lied to him about what it was really like. Ned was cursed for breaking his promise to Lyanna

The virgin show Jon Snow>I don’t want itThe Chad Book Jon Snow>fuck I really want it but I want to the right thing idk fuck
>>218088956AKOTSK unfortunately highlights just how much dragons diminish the story telling aspects, and probably sink the budget too
>>218089506If Jon hadn't gone to the night's watch he probably would've died when Euron brought the Ironborn back to Winterfell.
>>218089534>AKOTSKWe say K7K in this thread
>>218089534I do agree on some level. I remember every 30 mins of Dunk and Egg and will probably for the rest of my life but in the 14 hours of HOTD i remember fragments. Such a shame because the point of the the dance of the dragons is supposed to people who hated each other
>bran, would you like to hear about the time Ser Duncan the Tall creampied me underneath the heart tree and left a bastard in my belly?
>>218089369>>218089371the absolute state of this board, it's just leddit light
>>218089589Go back
>>218089558>We say K7K in this threadnobody says this
>>218089550he would have went to war with Robb and the entire war would have went differently. We know from Dance that Jon is way higher IQ than Robb in pretty much every way other than maybe battle tactics. If Jon goes Theon doesn't get sent to the Iron Islands(because it's the first time in history that Jon and Catelyn agree on something) and Roose probably doesn't get put in charge of the 2nd army
>>218089558It's not catching on, anon. Let it die.
A stark and a targ? What is this song kind of song of ice and fire?
>>218089646wolf and dragon retard
>>218089558We say dunk.
>>218089506Maester Luwin is such a dickhead
>>218089641never makes me not laugh
>>218089618Five minutes on the road with both Catelyn and Jon and Robb would have learned much sooner to disregard everything Catelyn says
>>218089585No, tell me more about Macumber
>>218088857I think part of the characterization they're going for with him is that he's the kind of guy that has quasi-philosophical "bro when you think about it" deep thoughts. Just like when he is trying to talk about stags inventing jousting, there's a comedic reaction shot of everyone looking at him like they have no fucking idea what he's talking about.tl:dr Lyonel would have a podcast.
>>218089688>"There was no thing that comes in the night, Maester Luwin had said so. If there had ever been such a thing, it was gone from the world now, like giants and dragons.">you didn't have a dream of your father dying, he's just fine in King's Landing-ACK>ghosts aren't real, you didn't see Ned's ghost in the crypts-ACK>wargs aren't real, you can't see through your wolf's eyes-ACK>giants and dragons are gone-ACK>the ironborn won't take Winterfell, prophetic dreams aren't real-ACK>children of the forest never existed, and are all gone if they did-ACK>white walkers aren't real-ACK>there isn't a dragon living under Winterfell-ACKgrey rat scum Luwin got what he deserved and ended up being eaten by the Winterfell godswood
You're big and stupid, anon.
>>218088712That's the correct reaction. Tessarion is supposed to be big enough to be evenly matched with Seasmoke. Instead she's smol.
>>218089811
>>218089811AHHHH GUARDS HELP IM BEING ASSUALTED
>>218089811God I wish she had said that to me
>>218089816>seasmoke was over 30 years old>tessarion was 10 at most, only big enough to ride a year before the dance startedare you retarded?
>>218088712Gotta agree with Brazilians on this oneAnd why are they so vocal about asoiaf in X?
>>218089797What dragon living under Winterfell? What are you talking about?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_ngnCGojpEit's up
>>218089865The book says Tessarion was 1/3 the size of Vermithor, which was the second-biggest dragon in the world. Going by your mongoloid calculation, Vermithor should be the size of Drogon at most.
it is absolutely inevitable that /K7K/ will win because nobody wants to fucking type out /akotsk/. Fight it all you want retards you have already lost.
What are some asoiaf conspiracy theories you believe? For me its the grand maester conspiracy.
>>218088710Kek
>>218089961geofrey was actually a baratheon by blood
>>218089811I've been on a bit of a medieval kick after catching up with the show. What are some good vidya recs that are big and stupid pilled?
>>218089961Faegon being a Blackfyre but that's so widely accepted that it's barely tinfoil
>>218089961azor jaime
>>218088798The only one I've read was White Wolf of Westeros
>>218089961Euron wargs into the dusky woman everytime Victarion plows her.
>>218088798I read a bit of uh, a wolf among lions? it was about arya getting found out by tywin, and ending up as his ward/hostage in a brokered peace with robb after the red wedding doesn't happen because tywin used arya to force peace rather than tarnishing his name with the wedding
>>218089961GRRM is a hack conspiracy.
>>218089989>mummer dragon That shit is not even a theory

>>218089961roose bolton is a skinwalker
>>218089961Tywin is the dusky woman and grrm already finished the books and he's just waiting for his death
>>218089961I'm not sure if this even counts as tinfoil, but the three eggs Elissa Farman stole and sold to the Sealord of Braavos were the eggs Dany's dragons hatched from.
>>218089886In fire and blood they say theres a rumor that when Jace (Rhaenyra’s son) visited Cregan stark at the start of the dance his dragon left some eggs there. I Fire and Blood its framed as silly. Probably true just because why bring it up if its not and he adds this jurassic park bit about Dragons “supposedly” changing sex at need although nobody can ever tell the sex of an adult dragon. Also in fire and blood he’s at winterfell for like a week inking a deal for the North support not 20 minutes like in HotD
>>218088857>>218088940i feel like he just confessed that he was neglected by his mother, and the other six don't really know what to do with that information
Reminder. Magic is a pedophile. It is a sick fuck.
Post Joffrey reign doesn't have many cute girls compared to history
>>218089063what type of "modern knowledge"
>>218089089no, i wanna get down!
>>218090185i tell him how harry potter ends
>>218090135That's just wrong, that reddit dwarf invented that shit is not a rumour.
Why else would a sorcerer have chopped off a child's junk? The CHILDREN of the forest.
>>218088657Been living under a rock? He's publicly attacked HotD for the changes they've made and how Ryan Condor stabbed him in the back because he lied to GRRM pretending he wanted to do a faithful adaption when he never had the intention to faithful to the books at all
>>218089961Prophecy is bullshit and the Targs are just a bunch of mentally ill freaks with main character syndrome due to years of inbreeding and being in power for so long.
Eustace Osgrey will be Eustace OsBLACK now HBO know this is a hitTheir greasy fingers will be all over it
>>218090176Margaery was a cute, even if she was a god digging whore. I'd do-a-flip too if I realized my mom nuked half the city just to take her away and try to control my life
Can someone give the qrd on each person who fought with dunk and the bad boy (I'm forgetting names). Curious on the back stories
>>218090263Virginity swapping sex with she
>>218090201
If you practice magic you likely molest little boys. All wizards do.
>>218089585and that's why Hodor's real name is Walder. Old Nan(A Frey) probably named her son Walder (after her brother) who named his son (Hodor) Walder
a knight of the seven kingdoms has got me so back into the AOIAF fandom. It's literally everything I've ever liked about it. I really hope they don't fuck it up
>>218090171>>218090219>>218090307t. Butthurt maester who couldn't light the glass candle
>>218089849what would you have done?

>>218088638My hovervraft is fullmof eels
It pisses me off that GRRM will never finish writing Winds of Winter or Dreams of SpringI just want to see what happens with >Young Griff>Euron and Oldtown>Stannis and Boltons >Dany and Battle of Fire So let's hear it /got/hotd/dunk/. Whats your personal fanfic of what happens with any one of these? Lets see if its kino or not
>>218088657He wrote off game of thrones in season 2 after they added that spunky peasant love interest for Robb
>>218090052>red wedding doesn't happen because tywin used arya to force peaceinteresting, ill give it a look
Why do maesters force initiates to attempt to light a glass candle in total darkness?Is it because they kill anyone who shows an inkling for magic? How did people like archmaester Marwyn even get where they are today?
>>218090353I 100% believe he will finish winds of winter, but never a dream of spring. Best we can hope for is that he decided that story ends in WoW instead
>>218089462Those are our myths. They probably have different ones where its different
>>218090007Funnily enough that's one of the endings to this game. Whe you play as King Jaime you can go down a specific route to defeating the white walkers BUT to do so you have to do a few steps. One of which is put Cersei on trial and sentence her to death. by doing so you sacrificed your love making her your Nissa Nissa. The people then look to Jaime as Azor
>>218089026What's so wrong with being a servant in Asshai?
>>218090362>spunky peasant love interest for Robbwho was the real love interest? its been so long since i read the books
>>218090300thanks for the upgrade
>>218090384if they can light the glass candle they get sent to maester black ops
>>218090353A dragon will probably eat the blackfyre fucking shit
>>218089228Why is Aemond so cute bros
>>218090362The execution may have been off but the story is what GRRM had planned which is why he doesn't hate GoT, GRRM gave D&B their jobs because they figured out that Jon is Lyanna and Rhaegar's son, before all the backlash to the final season GRRM said that the show ending was the same as the book
>>218090386What do you personally believe will happen in winds of winter?
what would (you) do with a glass candle in the ASOIAF world. Or the real world for that matter
>>218090384It's a lesson not a test and not a single initiate is able to light it
>>218090384>>218090427the maesters have been taken over by the survivors of the magic groups the dragonlords thought they killed
>>218090398Jane Westerling who was related to the Lannisters and he only married her because he knocked her up
>>218090353I haven’t read the books, but I hope Stannis defeats the Boltons and skins them alive. I also hope he doesn’t burn Shireen.I was really disappointed that Stannis burned his daughter and then lost to the Boltons in the show
>>218090398Some random daughter of one of Tywin's bannermen that he boned when she was nursing him back to health after he was injured capturing her father's castle.It was a spur of the moment mistake with a stranger that completely fucked his campaign and not some long romantic courtship with a homeless woman following his army around
>>218090452What the fuck do they do?
>>218090384there's a Crack theory that the blood from the cut hands in someway power the candle. blood magic baby
Remember when the HotD intro was so indecipherable and dogshit they changed it, and they just changed it to something also indecipherable and dogshit
>>218090393no health insurance
>>218090469GRRM said he will burn her in the book as well.
>Only I could lighten Her Grace's heart. In this dark hour, I became the queen's counselor, setting aside my fool's sceptre and pointed hat to lend her all my wisdom and compassion. Unbeknownst to all, it was the jester who ruled them now, an invisible king in motleyyou know HOTD directors are hacks because they won't show shadow king Mushroom this season
Maesters hate magic because it's akin to conditional physics. Imagine if some part of nature was like "nyo" and the physicist goes "fffff-"
>>218090300god i love dunk
>>218090466>>218090471kek lmao, what a dumbass. if Ned could have a bastard why not Robb?
>>218090446Chapter 1 will reveal that the world is indeed in a giants eye. Chapter 2 the giant rubs his eyes destroying the world. The end.
>>218090479they are knock off Palantirs, GRRM is a hack
>>218088668;_;this kid is pretty good in the show
>>218090479Marwyn say they use it to communicate across long distances and he was able to use it to see Sam coming.
>>218090384People say its a lesson meant to humble you, you're so smart, you're a maester now, but you can't do magic.But in GRRM"s drafts all maesters attempt to light a candle each morning.The maesters are trying to monitor the return of magic.
>>218090524Because he knows first hand how poorly Jon was treated because he was a bastard, Ned and Robb lost their lives due to their honour
>>218090393"It is rumored that spellsingers, aeromancers, and warlocks practice their arts openly in Asshai.[14] Asshai is open to all sorts of practitioners of the "higher mysteries" such as godswives, alchemists, necromancers, night-walkers, pyromancers, bloodmages, as well as inquisitors, torturers and poisoners, and even worshippers of the Black Goat and Bakkalon and the Lion of Night. No practice is forbidden in the city, however depraved.[5]"Imagine being a servant (or, literally a nobody there) that wouldn't notice you missing because either your own master (or some sick fuck kidnapped you) used you for one reason or another.
>>218090524His mom being a bitch to Jon is the reason why Robb refused to have a bastard and married her
Just finished the novel, how are they going to do a full episode with 4 pages?
Dragons are magi-flesh golemsThey were powered by blood magick and the not!nuclear reactor of old valyria.The targs being so far away and doing so much battle with theirs rapidly drained all the stored energy in the magick energy networkTHe maesters schemed to kill all the dragons so that magick would have time to build up againNow the candles are lighting again, and there was enough magick in the world for dany's eggs to hatch.Magick of course that was jump started by the comet.
I remember I really wanted to find out what was behind the "voice" when Varys had his junk sacrificed. I thought I was going to find out when he kidnapped the sorcerer who did it to him. They show him in a crate. Then he just seals him away and it's never addressed again. Really pissed me off.
>>218090300>>218090201Can any do a simi-loop him just dancing alone like an oaf?
>>2180899111/3 the size of Vermithor is actually smol. If you compare to humans, 1/3 Mountain is a lot shorter than Tyrion.
>>218090353I'm pretty sure Stannis is going to trick the Bolton army with the lighthouse trick and make them fall through the ice lake. What happens to Stannis after that is beyond meEuron will summon Krakens which will rekt incoming fleet. I REALLY wish that Sam is the one to defeat Euron. No idea what's the most kino way to go about it tho
>>218090573all the problems in asoiaf are caused by women
Maesters hate Valyria because their academic equivalent had sorcery on their curriculum. "You haven't figured out blood sacrifice yet? lol, lmao even"
>>218090552Remember that wood mask bitch told Dany all the magic users are becoming strongers since the return of the dragons.
>>218090524Literally Robb saw who Frey's daughters and granddaughters are and they're 'not his type' to put it mildly.You know, if Walder didn't fucking kept Roslyn hidden away, Robb would've picked her in a heartbeat.
>>218090592Anon, its R'hllorVarys is targ/blackfyre depending on your schizophrenia and his genitals were potent for the ritual because he is kings blood/kings seed.
>>218089961>>218090466>>218090471I believe that a love potion was used on Robb at first to get him to marry Jayne. Then once they were married Jayne's mom gave her some concoction to keep from being pregnant.>Jeyne's Grandmother was Maggy the frog who knew how to brew many such things. Kevan even tells us that she made love potions>Another Jeyne Westerling married Maegor the Cruel. Tyanna of the tower was rumored to have given Jeyne a fertility potion but was sabotaging her>Jeyne' mother assured Tywin that Jeyne would never get pregnant and that she made sure of it>Jeyne admits she was taking a fertility potion but it's heavily hinted that it prevented pregnancy
>>218090479They can spy across half the world and send people dreams and visions. It's like a different form of what the greenseers do.
>>218090613Leyton and his girl will destroy Euron.
>>218090623>if Walder didn't fucking kept Roslyn hidden awaylmao based Walder
>>218090573>muh Jon excusejust feed to slut moon tea and be done with it. It's established in the books that Robb was letting the crown go to his head. He married Jayne because she was hot and he was pissed at the idea of being forced to marry a Frey, and thought he could get away with it because he was king. Robb was a retard who deserved his death
preston went on a 10 minute rant about the show messing up Arlans flashback for not having any hints of his recent death nephewwhat a retard
>>218089889christ I forgot how insufferable this faggot is.
>>218090662That shit wasnt mentioned in the first book
>>218090662Dunk Time just did the opposite and said that Arlan was drunk because he was sad about his depressed nephewyour youtube 4 hour explainer shows are made by speedwatchers kek
Does Westeros know anything meaningful about Yi Ti, and vice versa, or is it just exaggerated tales?
dragons = wyverns + firewyrmsmixed with some foul ancient valyrian blood magicDoes dragonglass predate dragons? Did it become called dragonglass because dragons became a living symbol of the powers of magic but dragon glass was just some magic glass before?
What's the verdicts on the discrepancy between depictions of Jeyne Westerling during and after her marriage?Is she with child and being impersonated by her sister (just like we know Myrcella has her cousin impersonate her) or did George just forgot how she looked?
>>218090662arlan is piss drunk when hes shownhes piss drunk for like a week straightwe also see him resting near a burial mound
She looked better than TalisaRobb fucked up hard
>>218090652No. They will annihilate each other mutually. There will be no Oldtown for anyone to conquer.Euron will summon krakens. Leyton will summon deep ones. They will look at each other and team up to eat the foolish surfacers that summoned them.
>>218090627I hate this fan theory about Robb being date raped and then goaded into a marriage, if Tywin and Sybil could actually pull off 5D chess moves like this there wouldn't be a war in the first place. Remember these people all think northerners are savages who worship trees and have no honour
>>218090662>>218090684he didn't even notice that Arlan is sleeping by Roger's grave
>>218090694Dragonglass is literally just obsidian. It has magical properties in this world. It is the synthesis of ice and fire. Frozen flame.

>>218090723Vicious little cunt.The seeds of Summerhall were there all along.
>>218090689They know that the Yi Ti have slant eyes and sideways pussies

"Khaleesi," Aggo called through the drapes as the palanquin jerked to a sudden halt. Dany rolled onto an elbow to lean out. They were on the fringes of the bazaar, the way ahead blocked by a solid wall of people. "What are they looking at?"Jhogo rode back to her. "A firemage, Khaleesi.""I want to see."“Then you must." The Dothraki offered a hand down. When she took it, he pulled her up onto his horse and sat her in front of him, where she could see over the heads of the crowd. The firemage had conjured a ladder in the air, a crackling orange ladder of swirling flame that rose unsupported from the floor of the bazaar, reaching toward the high latticed roof.Most of the spectators, she noticed, were not of the city: she saw sailors off trading ships, merchants come by caravan, dusty men out of the red waste, wandering soldiers, craftsmen, slavers. Jhogo slid one hand about her waist and leaned close. "The Milk Men shun him. Khaleesi, do you see the girl in the felt hat? There, behind the fat priest. She is a—""—cutpurse," finished Dany. She was no pampered lady, blind to such things. She had seen cutpurses aplenty in the streets of the Free Cities, during the years she'd spent with her brother, running from the Usurper's hired knives.The mage was gesturing, urging the flames higher and higher with broad sweeps of his arms. As the watchers craned their necks upward, the cutpurses squirmed through the press, small blades hidden in their palms. They relieved the prosperous of their coin with one hand while pointing upward with the other.When the fiery ladder stood forty feet high, the mage leapt forward and began to climb it, scrambling up hand over hand as quick as a monkey. Each rung he touched dissolved behind him, leaving no more than a wisp of silver smoke. When he reached the top, the ladder was gone and so was he."A fine trick," announced Jhogo with admiration."No trick," a woman said in the Common Tongue.(cont)
>>218090652>>218090717okay who the fuck is Leyton
>>218090708He also could marry both ginger twinsWalder didnt care
>>218090752I simply do not trust the accounts of the asshai>yeah bro actually other people tamed the dragons and just like, gave them to the valyrians>no I won't tell you who those people were
How much time passing is this montage supposed to represent? With his wound, no showing of any food or good water, I mean holy shit
>>218090718it's robbfags trying to make excuses for him destroying the North
(cont)Dany had not noticed Quaithe in the crowd, yet there she stood, eyes wet and shiny behind the implacable red lacquer mask. "What mean you, my lady?""Half a year gone, that man could scarcely wake fire from dragonglass. He had some small skill with powders and wildfire, sufficient to entrance a crowd while his cutpurses did their work. He could walk across hot coals and make burning roses bloom in the air, but he could no more aspire to climb the fiery ladder than a common fisherman could hope to catch a kraken in his nets."Dany looked uneasily at where the ladder had stood. Even the smoke was gone now, and the crowd was breaking up, each man going about his business. In a moment more than a few would find their purses flat and empty. "And now?""And now his powers grow, Khaleesi. And you are the cause of it.">>218090770The current patriarch of the Hightowers. He hasn't left the Hightower in "over a decade"."To be sure. Lord Leyton's locked atop his tower with the Mad maid, consulting books of spells. Might be he'll raise an army from the deeps. Or not."
Who is this 'Preston' and why do we need to listen to him? Why not Alt-Shift-X?
>>218090689Just exaggerated tales. It's why the small council was quick to dismiss the tales of Danys dragons and why people outside of Westeros think Tywin literally made of gold and his eyes emeralds
>>218090770Leyton Hightower. He has an unmarried schizo daughter in her forties
>>218090796Dunk is the actual main character of this shonen
>>218090694Dragons came from space.Wyverns and Firewyrms are the product of divergent evolution and horrible magical curses, respectively.
>>218090723I'd put my erect penis inside her pink red haired vagina and inseminate her if you get what I mean
>>218090788Empire of the Dawn aka why there is Valyrian type architecture in Westeros while the Valyrians were still fucking sheep and why the Daynes have Valyrian features
>>218090804>Why not Alt-Shift-X?we listen to all the noble houseshouse shifthouse prestonhouse glidushouse morningstarbut not house redteam
>>218090770The most divorced man of all time.
>>218088657He didn't attack the later seasons but he all but let these guys get hung out to dry because he couldn't do his job.
>>218090829This. The people who came before the Valyrians were less sophisticated fishmen. Their architecture is simpler and more blocky. They bred dragons in an aquatic direction.
>>218090694I don't know why it's disputed that dragons are wyverns + firewryms + a human sacrifice given the song Daemon sings to Vermithor largely confirms thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrElaGLsa9c
>>218090837Wizards and Warriors channel is kino too
>>218090452probably use them to check in on a couple girls I knew when I was a kid, and just seeing how their lives turned out. And then maybe see if I can find the truth in any of the many conspiracy theories out there. In both cases, it's just mere curiosity. >>218090638>and send people dreams and visionsOh I can do that too? I would gaslight a couple specific people I know personally into killing themselves, And do the opposite to a few other people, gaslighting them to chill the fuck out
>>2180908290 textual basis.0.
>>218090858Dragons are the result of wyverns being parasitized by firewyrms, in fact. They take on the qualities of their host. This is why the firewyrms inside Aerea had faces and hands and awful voices. It's Xemomorph logic. The Valyrians had access to something that enabled them to produce true abominations.
>>218090829>there is Valyrian type architecture in WesterosWhere is that stated? Other than Dragonstone which was under the control of the Valyrian Freehold and built by them
>>218089462Barristan, Arthur Dayne, Aemon the Dragonknight and Bobby B had loving mothers by all accounts. Looks like you're right.
>>218090829Wait Arthur or Darkstar could've been dragonseeds and ridden a dragon?
>>218090889the primitive fused black stone architecture (a form of magic that stems from dragonfire, which comes from dragons, which are said to come from the Shadow) found along the world's coasts coincides with the greasy black stone seen around the world's coasts. Someone had access to similar magics before them. Myth says the Valyrians originally learned their craft from a nameless people of the Shadow. Asshai-by-the-Shadow is a greasy city of black stone.The implication is that dragons were originally aquatic or something. This coincides with Nagga and talk of 'Deep Ones', 'Squishers', Merlings', etc.
>>218090889The base of the hightower for example and like he said, the daynes look just like them
>>218089462Confirmed. Rich the Lion-heart is a mama's boy lmao.
>>218090925No.The great empire of the dawn is the collective creation of video essayists with too much time on their hands.
Fishmen raped humans. They preferred the white haired looks of the Valyrians.
Are there Muslims in Essos?
>blackwash Aryans (Velaryons)>cut the only actual dark character (Nettles) What is this called
>>218090925Edric Dayne will put a baby in Arya Stark just like Rhaegar Targaryen did to Lyanna Stark
>>218090954Yes. The red religion is like Islamized Zoroastrianism. They seek to conquer the world by spreading their martyrized religion.
>>218089961There's a dragon under Winterfell. Summer saw it.
>>218090567>"It is rumored that spellsingers, aeromancers, and warlocks practice their arts openly in Asshai.[14] Asshai is open to all sorts of practitioners of the "higher mysteries" such as godswives, alchemists, necromancers, night-walkers, pyromancers, bloodmages, as well as inquisitors, torturers and poisoners, and even worshippers of the Black Goat and Bakkalon and the Lion of Night. No practice is forbidden in the city, however depraved.[5]">>Imagine being a servant (or, literally a nobody there) that wouldn't notice you missing because either your own master (or some sick fuck kidnapped you) used you for one reason or another.So...how's Volantis slave life?

>>218090871>The foundation of the Hightower is a fortress of black stone of uncertain origin on Battle Isle. The stone is reminiscent of Valyrian roads and the Black Walls of Volantis.>hightower is over 8K years old, far older than Valyriacope>>218090889the hightower's foundation
>>218090960Its ok bro another brown girl tamed sheepstealer and this one is not going to make rhaenyra look bad.
>>218090926>>218090927Some characters making comparison of the oily black stone to dragonstone is solely due to the appearance but dragonstone isn't described as being oily or greasy in touch which would make them different
>>218090858>fire breather >winged leader>but two heads>to a third sing>from my voice>the fires have spoken>and the price has been paid>with blood magic>with words of flame>with clear eyes>to bind the three>to you I sing>as one we gather>and with three heads>we shall fly as we were destined>beautifully, freelyso firewyrms obviously breathe fire, wyverns are called "tyrants of the southern skies" so winged leader, but the song is from the perspective of the third head, I don't think its a human sacrifice, I think aerion had more of the truth of it than anyone gives him credit. I think the song is about turning into a dragon. Or its eugenics schizophrenia. Blood magic of valyria, words of flame from asshai, clear eyes(greenseers?) of the first men? We know starks have the genes for it and we know rhaegar went schizo over thinking he NEEDED to make babies with a stark.Maybe its both
I kind of don't understand where all the white people came from in Westeros when it seems like all the eastern areas are full of brown people, physically and culturally. If they came from the east shouldn't there be similar cultures there?Very confused on thisim retarded btw
>>218088678https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Scb1knEvN6s
>>218091023They're connected despite being different, is the point being made. Magic in this world takes on similar but different shapes, abroad. The trees of the Warlocks are essentially the weirwoods of Essos.
>>218091023Like he said >>218091004They built hightower before drsgonstone
>>218090970What is Islam like?
>>218090825in english please!
>>218088657Right after the episode HotD officially went off the rails in S2, he put out a blog post about how screenwriters routinely fuck with adaptations to tell their own stories.
>>218091031Most of Essos is populated by the Andals who are White, only a minority of Andals from one area of Essos feld to Westeros
>>218090960black people can't be portrayed as poor or of rough stock since that would be racistthey can only be KANGZ
>>218090698I think he straight up says the inconsistency was a mistake
>>218090659t. a Frey
>>218091086Ok why is Rape or whatever her name is black and not Aryan then
>>218090988The middle east is a land without a lot of resources, so when they decide to immortalize an image as art, it's because it's impactful image. They also don't have a lot of flowers, trees, and animals to make art about, so that's wh they focus a lot on the night sky and basic geometry. It really is no wonder that this is the part of the world that invented modern maths as well as most of the medical knowledge known in the ancient world
>>218091111>It really is no wonder that this is the part of the world that invented modern maths as well as most of the medical knowledge known in the ancient worldPersians did that. Not Arabs. All of Islamic architecture was taken from Persia and the Byzantines.

>>218090353>Young GriffMarries Arianne, takes Storm’s End, beats the Tyrell army so bad Mace that dies, the Tarly army turns KL over to Aegon.King Aegon and Queen Arianne get coronated. The KL plot ends with the Myrcella and Tommen’s corpses being presented to Aegon. Jon Con is pleased. >Euron and OldtownEuron takes the glass candles and dragon lore he needs from Oldtown. He takes Sam’s horn away from him and realizes it’s the Horn of Joramun. He blows it on the Hightower bringing the Wall down. Thus starts the Others’ invasion >Stannis and BoltonsStannis drastically weakens the Boltons. Ramsay takes the opportunity to take out Roose and some of the Northern lords in Winterfell They revolt and Ramsay abandons Winterfell while the troops give Winterfell to Stannis. The Wall comes down at the end and now Stannis is stuck in Winterfell waiting for the Others as GRRM sets up Shireen’s burning who is coming south with Melisandre and Seylse>Dany and Battle of FireTyrion and co win. The city is saved. Tyrion uses the opportunity to take down Yunkai and Astapor and solve the issues in Dany’s name which is why Dany decides to make Tyrion her hand when they meet
Did Egg acquire the Targ madness in the end? Did Dunk stop him from committing to some horrible blood magic ritual?
>>218091219traitors to the realm, lorefag pretenders
>>218091031all of the Western part of Essos used to be White, they left for Westeros to escape the insane Valyrians who were enslaving everyone and muttifying the place by bringing nigger slaves from the east and south. First Men had the White man's spirit of exploration and left even before the Valyrians were a thing
>>218091245my Headcanon is that it was going to work but Dunk tried to stop it and fucked it up in the process causing the fire to spread and more people to die
>>218091245I think the targedy of aegon is that he wasn't mad, he mad the horrible decision to try and do blood magic while fully sane
>>218091154Look bro, all I know is that they are called Arabic numerals, and Algebra is an Arabic term. You do the math
>>218090536>>218090452They were supposed to be. If you look at AFFC’s drafts, the glass candles were meant to keep the maesters immortal. Yes it was going to be a reveal that the maesters are immortals
Why is Essos so fucked?The Dothraki literally annihilate any civilization that tries to form. Even the Sarnor were fucked. Rhoynar are gone. Thanks Valyria.It's pretty desolate.
>>218091241Unrioncially I hope we never do find out what happens at summerhall. Better that way. Keeps things mysterious.
>>218089440There's no way you could receive a wound like that while wearing a plate helmet without the helmet itself being completely shattered apart
Redpill me on Tyland LannisterHow did the lords not rebel when a noble was castrated and mutilated
>>218091292because magic breathes stronger in essos
>>218091274>I think the targedy of aegon is that he wasn't mad, he mad the horrible decision to try and do blood magic while fully saneMagic is very hard to understand and it's basically powers humans can't comprehend they are toying with. Even Melisandre doesn't know how to work it, but one thing everyone agrees on is there is power in certain bloodlines, hence why concentrating magic genes in one family though incest, like say Targaryens can give you an extra chance of being a magic user.
>>218091276Arabic numerals come from India, lol. Please update your understanding fast. Arabs steal everything and it's Persians that did everything for them. The 'father of algebra' wasn't an Arab. He was Persian. The overwhelming majority of polymaths in the alleged "Islamic golden age" were Persian.
Perhaps if I figure out the secretI could use blood magic myself..
>>218090698It was fixed in later editions proving it was just Jeyne. She had wide hips and a fat ass after all. Nice job, Robb
>>218091356The secret is that magic is alive. It's like tossing a raw piece of meat to a wild beast, hoping for its favour. That beast also likely hates you.
>>218091245Quite possible Egg has early-onset dementia too.Also his kids fucking around surely didn't do good for his overall mental health. His kids wouldn't listen and his youngest son (I assume his favorite) probably turned out to be gay and died 8 years before Summerhall.
>>218091347And a nazi scientist built he first atom bomb, but no one blames germany for hiroshima. quit trying to rewrite history, faggot
god I wish I could fight my enemies in a fight to the deatheven if I died, which I likely would, at least it would be resolved
>>218091396I'm not rewriting history, though? I can give you fucking sources. I can quote Persian polymaths trash talking Arabs and the Quran.
>>218091276>You do the math
Remember when Tommen tried to name a Navy ship after Moonboy? Lol
>>218091245>Did Egg acquire the Targ madness in the end?targ madness is literally just bloodraven fucking with your dreams
the night king = the bloodstone emperorthe mixing of bloodlines he achieved is what led to dragonsyou need very specific mixes of bloodlines to psychically bind the wyrms and the wyverns. its why the greenseer genes are so important.

>>218092122Yes. Maisie's career is fully bottomed out, she's out of the game for atleast 10 years. Maybe she can make a comeback on nostalgia-bait castingat that point,or maybe she's done for good. we will see.it would be a very interesting curve ball if HBO did a West of Westeros series that was 100% HBO OC stories, about the first expedition to pull a columbus, and map out the Eastern coast of Easteros

>>218092416yea it's stupid as fuck. It's like Maekor wasn't given a proper history of the Targaryen dynasty and Maegor I engaged in a trial by seven himself and won it.
>>218092450there’s no way around it, it’s a stupid moment in the show, my head canon is that Maekar doesn’t really give a fuck about Targaryen history or they speed through that piece of the curriculum, Baelor knows it because he pursued a more in depth education and Aerion is a Maegor fangirl
