>>218981876That’s actually a beautiful image. Even with the (obviously more symbolic than literal) dragon in the tree.
>>218981960One of the KoTSK editions has these illustrations, they're pretty good.
>>218981876Wonderful art, Ser
I really liked the ratcatcher infiltration in S2, but it's one of the very few moments I have enjoyed so far
>I have a cool ASOIAF theory.>Let's hear it. >So Bloodraven-
i like to think they all liked each other at some point
>>218981918shansha
>>218983813Did Egg really become a mad man in the end? Perhaps Dunk convinced him not to go through with the ritual… and perhaps the pyromancers in the room simply went ahead anyway…
>>218983684baelor and daemon look like the only likable people in this
>>218984000communism and valyrian genes don't mix well
>Hedge White GeneralAdmit it, the only reason you enjoy GOT again is because they got rid of DEI.Think of it this way. What's your favorite kino. Keep that image in your head.Okay now, does that kino have any non-whites in it? If you said "yes", it's not kino!Still with me? Suck it too! Hahahaa!
>>218984000Anything could have happened
>>218983684Bittersteel hated Bloodraven the moment he was born
>>218984190because they were
>>218984190according to egg Baelor basically begged Daeron to pardon Daemon, they probably had a rivalry, Daemon being a bastard feeling like he had to overcompensate, train harder and be better than everyone, Baelor knowing that Daemon is full blooded targ and given a sword that should be his but were probably mostly friends most of their lives and had alot of the same likable qualities
>>218982942It was a pretty strange decision to make this a horror segment ... for the killers lol.
I just found out dany tortures a guys 6 year old daughter in front of him in the books. That’s crazy. If the show would have added that scene then people wouldn’t be so shocked she turned out evil
>>218985731they whitewashed dany so hard in the show, when martin tells d&d it ends with the targaryen messiah going "mad" they must've been like "shit"
>>218981918Is a whore.
>>218985814They whitewashed several characters in the show with Tyrion being the biggest example.
>>218984000>perhaps the pyromancers in the room simply went ahead anywayIt’s this. They said “fuck you, we’re doing this shit”, and then they lit the match.
>>218983684Ungrateful Cunts>Daeron could not undo the legitimization of his father's bastards, but he treated them honorably and continued the incomes bestowed on them. He paid the dowry Aegon had promised the Archon of Tyrosh for his daughter, Rohanne of Tyrosh, to wed Daemon Blackfyre when Daemon was thirteen.[N 2] On Daemon's wedding day, Daeron granted him a tract of land near the Blackwater Rush so Daemon could build a keep.>Bitter his steel may have been, but worse was his tongue. He spilled poison in Daemon's ear, and with him came the clamoring of other knights and lords with grievances.>It was rumored that Fireball had as much a part as Bittersteel in convincing Daemon to claim the Iron Throne.
>>218985953yeah Tyrion stopped being Tyrion long before the show went to shit
>>218986180Daeron was good to Daemon, what a shame. I think Daemon respected his older brother for a time, He could've took the name Targaryen but didn't cause he probably knew it would hurt Daeron optically
was Daeron better than Jaehaerys?
>>218987153fuck no, he was just biden after trump
>>218984000>mad manever heard of humpty dumpty?
>>218985731>I just found out dany tortures a guys 6 year old daughter in front of him in the books.I don't remember that at all, I remember one of her dragons nomming a shepherd's daughter without her knowledge, are you sure you're not confusing the two ?
>>218984336 >Anything could have happened yeah and GRRM conveniently “anything could have happened” himself out of ever actually committing to it Mad King sitting there like “burn them all” while half the court is like and we’re supposed to believe nobody tried to just… not do that? It’s one of those historical blurbs where you can feel George leaving room to retcon later when he changes his mind in 2043. Realistically it’s either >pyromancers were true believer schizos and did it anyway or >Aerys thought it was all still under control until Jaime hit ctrl+alt+regicide “Anything could have happened” is maester-speak for “the author hasn’t decided yet.”
>>218987153Yes, he drained the swamp:>Upon learning of his father Aegon IV's death, Daeron departed Dragonstone for King's Landing. He chose to crown himself with his father's crown to quell the doubts and rumors about his parentage. Mindful of his duty to the realm, Daeron acted swiftly to put to right many of the wrongs of his father's reign. He replaced the small council with his own men, typically selecting wise and capable councillors. It took a year to repair the City Watch of King's Landing, whose officers were just as corrupt as Aegon had been.
>>218987518No a wine seller is accused of of poising her unsullied and working with the sons of the harpy but wouldn’t confess anything, so the Shavepate suggests the only thing that will get him to talk is to torture his daughters in front of him because he loves his girls so much and dany allows it, and then never thinks about it again
>>218988313Jaime made it up, he killed Aerys because Kingslayer is a sick nickname.
>>218988520repairing isn't building
>>218989798He brought peace to the Seven Kingdoms:>Daeron began negotiations with his good-brother Maron Martell, Prince of Dorne, to unite Dorne with the Seven Kingdoms. After two years of negotiations an agreement was finalized. At the Great Sept of Baelor, they placed a golden wreath before the statue of King Baelor the Blessed and stated, "Baelor, your work is done."And we still don't know the vast majority of his deeds cause fatman never write Blood & Fire.
>>218990044>brought peaceblackfyre rebellions part 1 of 6 started under his reign
>>218982849i felt bad for this lil guy
>>218990854shut the FUCK up
>>218990854By niggers who wanted more war with Dorne.
Did she deserve it?
>>218991041Why do Valyrians and their And*l subjects enjoy losing to Dorne so much?
>>218991155>House Martell was founded by Morgan Martell, an Andal adventurer who settled between the mouth of the Greenblood and the Broken Arm during the coming of the Andals to DorneDorne W’s are Andal W’s
If Tywin hated Tyrion so fucking much to the point of ranting to him about how ashamed he is to see him walking around wearing the Lannister symbols why the fuck did he keep giving him high profile jobs and let him hang around the king's court rather than making him a tax collector in Lannisport or maybe shipping him off to be a maester?
>>218991155Garin the Great and the Rhoyne people handed the Valyrians their first btfo
>>218991379Because Jaime was captive and Tyrion was his only option left
>>218991325>trusting maestersno wonder your side always loses
>>218991041the Dornish deserved to be conquered, not a red carpet welcoming with honors
>>218991532>the Dornish deserved to be conquered
>>218991532>just bend down to dragonless Daeron the zoomer retard and his marcher niggersYeah nah, and Daeron II got a better result without having to spill any blood.
>>218991708Daeron was smart to realise he couldn't beat the Dornish, and it's better to let them into the realm on their terms while keeping their titles and rights to handle their own taxesDornish are better than any of the other parts of Westeros, and Daeron II was good to accept it
>>218991532They were too fucking plot armored for that. They can teleport in and out of their strongholds which also all happen to be Harrenhalproof
>>218991958>seething reachcucktick tock, the ironbabbies are going to sack oldtown
>>218991093steward's whelp
>>218991845>Dornish are better than any of the other parts of Westeros, and Daeron II was good to accept itBy the Seven who are Seven, how I wish Martin knew anything about warfare and had Aegon's burnings balkanizing that desert shithole
>>218992154Cope and seethe, Dorne is the most socially and economically progressive kingdom and that's why your side loses.
>>218991325Why are there zero houses that were created by the rhoynar. Like the thenns creating a new house in the north. They all just married into the first men and Andal houses or fucked off to live as a bum on the greenblood
>>218992491cuz nymeria brought women and children lmao
Dorne owns this thread now
>>218992491Because GRRM is retarded. He says the Rhoynar only brought women and children but also that their support gave the Martells the advantage they needed to unify Dorne. They subdued the Yronwoods et al with an army of women and children? Nothing about that shithole makes sense.
>Lord Tyrell lost a quarter of his men and near all of his horses during their march to the Hellholt, as the Dornish had poisoned every waterhole and oasis in the central sands. Those who finally managed to reach the Hellholt found the castle deserted.>In response to the Defenestration of Sunspear, Lord Harlan Tyrell marched his army from the Hellholt, intent on taking Vaith and Sunspear. In 5 AC, however, Harlan and his remaining army disappeared in the deserts of Dorne.The reach can't fight
>>218992542In George’s version of Spain the conquistadors didn’t have to go to another continent to get a Latina gf. They came to them; open and willing. Based dorne
>>218992542>>218993100>Dornish acquire this>become unstoppableno wonder the other kingdoms seethe so much
>Fire and Blood adaptation>it's another episode of the Targaryens burning Dorne to cinders for the 159th time
>>218991379because he is his son
>>218991532it's actually insane what the dornish just get away with, the terror inflicted on Ellia Martel doesn't even come close
>Dornish sympathizers in my /got/
>>218993524>Dornish get away with defending themselves>"THEY NEED TO SUFFER"makes me happy your side loses
>>218993524It's cool, Doran is gradually killing the entire Martell family with his retarded plots.
>>218993608>>Dornish get away with defending themselvesthat excuse works for two out of the fucking 5 dornish wars
>>218993454>targs lose another warlmao>>218993582blackfyres lost lol
>>218993695Works for all of them.Targs should have stayed home lol.
>>218993727the black dragon will rise againwe will die againand we will try again
is Young Griff/Aegon VI a Targaryen or a Blackfyre?
>>218993869blackfyre pretender
>>218993869he's real and dany is the pretender
>>218993869He is a Dayne, thats why Darkstar got involved with Arianne
>>218983684what the fuck was fireball's problem
>>218994120what?
>>218993869A street urchin from Volantis
>>218994247read >>218986180>It was rumored that Fireball had as much a part as Bittersteel in convincing Daemon to claim the Iron Throne.the guy was an asshole and was obsessed with being a Kingsguard
>>218994120Greedy soulless ginger>At some point, Aegon promised Quentyn a place in the Kingsguard once an opening were to become apparent. In order to facilitate this Quentyn made his wife join the silent sisters. Aegon died before an opening in the Sworn Brotherhood became vacant, however.>When a place in the Kingsguard became available under King Daeron II Targaryen, son and heir of Aegon IV, Quentyn reminded him of his father's promise. Fireball was refused the white cloak for reasons unknown, and it was instead given to Ser Willem Wylde. This betrayal caused Quentyn to choose Daemon Blackfyre's side during Daemon's rebellion. It was rumored that Fireball had as much a part as Bittersteel in convincing Daemon to claim the Iron Throne.

>>218994545that sigil...>carcosa>the yellow kingMarty, get the car
>>218994825thats wild
there's no reason for Aegon I's reign being so long when nothing fucking happens after the conquest, I guess gurm wanted to Aenys and Maegor to be adults when it was their time, but he could have just made it so that they were born before the conquest
>>218994943maybe he thinks long reign = good king
>>218994943Viserys II is the second longest reign
I just read the second Dunk story and she essentially propositioned him at the end to be her paramour right? Dunk either didn't understand or he was too prideful to be a kept boytoy and she was too indoctrinated into her nobility beliefs to consider marrying down. Good on ya dunk
>>218981876egg is icsh
>>218988549iirc she is pushed by circumstances and anger into making that decision and regrets it later (or even decides against future torture, can't remember it's been a while since my last read). I just put that down to Dany making rash decisions in anger as is her habit.
>>218994943Why does Maekar get the "I" but Aenys, Maegor, Baelor and Robert don't?
>>218997268foreshadowing of Jon's real name
>>218994943>There was a king named Anuswew
I need good men>dies
>>218998785And where was House Goodmen when they were called?
>>218998893filming Roseanne
>>218998922kek
soves
>>218996594Yeah thats my reading of it. He might’ve kept the horse though
The amount of outrage over Snape shows that HBO would have never have changed the Velaryons today. Race swapping an entire family of people who were meant to genetically resemble the Targs is so patently absurd
>>218988549>and then never thinks about it againLol thats exactly what Cersei does when she turns people over to Qyburn
>>218992796>>218993234gods I need a Dornish wife
>>218994943Crazy how Maegor's reign lasted 6 years and 66 days. It's almost like Gurm is implying something, despite Maegor being one of the best Targaryen kings.
Good night sers
vile accusations
>>218981876TAOOBA!
I don’t like Robb very much but good god his people are all such retards you do feel bad for him. “Your uncle killed my son in a fair fight in the war I took him to fight now now die squire!” Like come on
>>219002505I will have you brought to me
Mayhaps
>>218999869not that ripped at all
>>218994943>when nothing fucking happens after the conquestprobably because everyone just got btfo
>Universally recognized as the greatest king ever>hates women
Why does Varys like Tyrion so much but doesn’t give a shit about Jaime who did so much to save the city while Varys literally stood right there
>>219003949He envied Jaime's prettyness
Alright, I just read the third story too and it was markedly worse than the other two. You'd think grum would be good at political intrigue but it just wasn't that interesting. I did enjoy reading about dunk getting shit on by the snail tho
>>219003949because he's useful and to some extent easier to manipulate where Jaime only cares about being kingsguard and fucking Cersei
>>219004124The third is the worst one. I always get bored halfway through and don’t finish
>>219003949Jaime's fairly dangerous to Varys' plans
>>219003862>>hates womenhe gave women the most rights, he loves women, he hates his daughters, there is a difference
>>219004124ira parker has my blessing to make changes in season 2 and 3, i was fine with most of his changes except the Maekar one
>>219003100Norfs are all retarded.
>The most infamous act of the First Dornish War was committed by Lord Wyl, when he showed up at the wedding of Ser Jon Cafferen and Alys Oakheart, castrating the groom, having the bride be gang-raped by his men and sold into slavery, and slaying Lord Oakheart and most of the guests.>Orys and his bannermen found themselves the captives of the Wyl of Wyl, the savage mountain lord called the Widow-lover. When Aegon eventually agreed to the Dornish ransom demands, Lord Baratheon and his bannermen were ransomed in 7 AC for each man's weight in gold. However, they were freed only after having their sword hands chopped off.>During the final stage of the conquest of Dorne, King Daeron I Targaryen was attacked and killed under the pretext of a peace banner and Prince Aemon Targaryen was imprisoned by the Wyls.>Lord Wyl forced King Baelor I Targaryen to cross venomous snakes in order to free the Dragonknight.whats their fucking problem
>>219005332>whats their fucking problemdornish
>>219003949Because he sees Tyrion as a reasonable intellectual who is also simultaneously on the fringe of the system. Jaime is not as bright and very much balls deep in the system.
>>219003949Jaime will sniff out that he's a blackfyre
>>219003100Robb was a thoroughbred dumb cunt
Could Egg survive an actual full power Clout in the Ear?
>>219005839Aerion was in full plate and dunk's hand just had a knife go through it mind you
>>219005839It would be very painful
>>219006252For house Banefort?>>219005332Worse than Ironborn?
Why did Viserys never take a new dragon
>>219006591i think you can only bond with one dragon
>>218993869Neither. He is the last Brightflame.
>>218993869Who is this cute little whore? I would strangle her then play with her fresh corpse for hours.
>>218996781luke is icsh
>>219005072He only gave them rights and abolished the right of first night because his wife nagged at him.
>>219007358name one other king that did that much for women? so sick of jman being called a woman hater
>>218981876is there a dragon that will appear in house of dunk, or is this just whimsical image
>>219007906It's just symbolic.
>>219007884Even the whole bit about hating his daughters seems kind of overstated, like the issue with Saera comes off as her being his favorite until she acts like a cunt and compared herself to Maegor and ran away to whore around.As for the other two daughters, Daella had autism and willingly chose the Arryn dude since he was nice, can't blame Jae for her death, and as for Viserra that was just Alysanne really hating her own daughter for some reason and Jaehaerys just decided to trust her judgement.
>>219007884Robert gave every maiden from Old Town to Last Hearth something to fantasize about because he was such a gigachad
If you enjoy House of Dragons, then Dunk & Egg isn't for you. It's for white people. You keep your woke feminist slop away from our show or I'll go scorched earth on your asses!
>>219007884joffrey shot an attractive large breasted prostitute to death with a crossbow so the women of king's landing no longer had to compete against her for his affections.

Aegon V and Queen Rhaenyra linked up, need it or keep it?
>>219004124Did you enjoy the good Ser Maynard Plumm's shenanigans?
Haven't posted here in ages, you guys are crazy for still being here. But I was thinking about this series again recently and what stood out to me is the large number of compelling and highly masculine characters. Stannis, Davos, Victarion, Maekar, Tywin, Barristan, Jorah and many more. It's the best part of Gurm's stuff, and honestly if people had any taste I think he'd be criticized for not being as good at creating female characters, but all he has to do is write a couple of annoying girlbosses and the retards will eat it up.
>>219012916Who is queen Rhaenyra? Did you mean to say princess Rhaenyra?

>>219006462The Baneforts sounds like the Boltons of the Westerlands with theur descent demain a necromancer of the Age of Heroes
>>218994943-Daeron I was the only one who never had a spouse-Baelor to Viserys II is the only time the new king was older than the previous one, also the only time the succession went "back" a generation-The only Targaryen generation that was fully skipped was the 4th one (between Jaehaerys I and Viserys I)-Maegor, Aegon II, Aegon III, Daeron I, Baelor and Aerys I are royal dead ends, meaning there's none of their blood in Aerys/Daenerys-Viserys II and Daeron II both outlived the most amount of kings during their lifetime. Each of them saw 5 kings sit on the iron throne before it was their turn (Viserys II was born during Viserys I and Daeron II during Aegon III). Viserys II technically wins with 6 if you count Rhaenyra
>>219021174yiti
you think Daemon Blackfyre could have been convinced to not be a retard to his family?
>>219023690i'm convinced if Daeron and Brynden sat him down, busted some crayons out and explained to him that Fireball and Bittersteel are salty assholes
>>219023690They didn't have the chance, Daeron ordered him arrested when it was clear Bittersteel was gonna rebel in his name, but Fireball found Daemon first and they escaped from Kingslanding.
>>219003862Just look at hotd to see what happens when women in Westeros forget their place
>>218991093She got pretty bad luck. Death would be merciful for her.
>>219005332>get invaded by (((targs)))>kill thembased
>>219024473>but Fireball found Daemon first and they escaped from Kingslanding.wait wait waityou telling me Bloodraven and Daeron fumbled arresting Daemon B in their own fucking house???
>>219025960They also let Bittersteel slip away like 20 times
>>219025960The Kingsguard fumbled it and it's not explicitly stated if it's at Kingslanding:>The Kingsguard was sent to arrest Daemon, but, with the aid of the master-at-arms of the Red Keep, Daemon managed to escape imprisonment.
Why do targsharts have so few names? There aren't even that many targ characters in this story and there's still dupe names everywhere.
>>219022615>theur descent demainActual IESLB.
>>218984000Nah, I don't think he was mad. He tried to do a ritual and it went horribly wrong. It might have possibly been a necessary prerequisite for Daenerys' dragon resurrection though.
>>219026894The show is foreshadowing aegons madness pretty heavily, I think George told Ira Parker that he does indeed go mad in the end

When a house goes "extinct" does it just mean the main branch?
Could go for a flagon rn
>>219026264kind of implies they were at the redkeep
So fire and blood doesn't cover the blackfyre rebellions, what do I read to learn about them?
>>219027929>hmm character is a ginger, impulsive and greedyOh I know, his nom de guerre will be Fireball. You're so smart George haha.
>>219025960tbf it was also Daemon B's house for a time, he knew it as well as Daeron and the Kingsguard
>>219028395What a cool lad
>>219028339that will be covered in blood and firebasically you can find bits and pieces everywhere and in the main series but mostly comes from the Dunk and Egg series
>>219028312You deserve as much, anon
>>219027975The cadet branch would just become the main branch at that point
>>219028339>>219028429book 2 and 3 of the Hedge Knight gives you the most of what we know, if you don't wanna go looking for all the infor, David Lightbringer made a video covering literally all of it, even stuff Martin has said in interviews about the conflict, and characters like Aegon IV, Bloodraven, and Daemonhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1B0Gqardq0&t=2212s

It's really cringe to base so much of your life around someone else's make-believe.
>>219028657Who are you talking about
>>219028709Sorry, wrong thread.
If I was lord of the trident I would call all the brackens and all the Blackwoods to a feast without telling one house about the other and then lock them in the main hall with plenty of food and drink and singers and jesters and women. Everyone would sort their differences out over a pint and a good time
>>219028758Hoster Blackwood tells Jamie that the Blackwoods and Brackens have a long history of intermarriage, but the feud continues to persist nonetheless.
>>219028758nobody knows what started the feud, some people say Brackens and Blackwoods are aware that they are in a book
>>218984000nope that's tranny wishful thinking psyoped narrative; Egg did try to hatch dragons but maesters and anti targ propagandists (baratheons, blackfyres apologists, it's a long list) made him seem like a witless populist chud unworthy of his title because he could not be controlled and if he had dragons again, even if just the one, he'd be unstopabble. They then sabotaged the whole thing, and IIRC his body was never recovered, I remember reading some 5 years ago a theory that he could had escaped alive but it had no teeth
>>219029153Brackens are in the right though. Imagine if Manderlys turned against the Starks, got independent from them and started telling everyone THEY were the original kings of the North and Starks their rebellious vassals. This is the level of jewery Brackens have to deal with every day.

You know what? I'm just gonna say it.He bore the sword.

>>219031066hotd makes you hate targs
>>219030980They had no major lord supporter, just overarchieving knights and uppity small lords. It was a rather hard war to win
>“Thousands died. Yet none of these losses were felt so deeply as that of Jacaerys, Prince of Dragonstone and heir to the Iron Throne.”jacebros...
>>219031198>They had no major lord supporterNo great houses, but they still had some good strong supporters from many vassal houses like Reyne, Peake, Hightower, Bracken, Frey, whatever house ruled Harrenhal, probably a few Stormlander houses, maybe even the Tarly...
>>219030953The most unrealistic part of this is how the fuck Bittersteel organized a retreat across the sea for hundreds of knights while being pursued by targ forces
>>219017821All actresses suck and fuck to get their roles, the issue is if the producer/showrunner is competent enough to pick the right whore for the role.
>>219031245>a dead bastardwesteros didn't even notice

ironborn are the master race
>Ser Criston drew his longsword from its scabbard. “As you will it. We can begin here, the four of us. One of me against the three of you. Will that be enough to make a fight of it?”>But Longleaf the Lionslayer said, “I’ll want three more,” and up on the ridge Red Robb Rivers and two of his archers raised their longbows. Three arrows flew across the field, striking Cole in belly, neck, and breast. “I’ll have no songs about how brave you died, Kingmaker,” declared Longleaf. “There’s tens o’ thousands dead on your account.” He was speaking to a corpse.colechuds...
I’m glad they kind of forgot Anguy existed that guy was a dick
>>219030980Daemon stopped to help Corbray
>>219031614Why were the rivermen such chads in the Dance and chuds in the Wot5K?
>>219031614>“I’ll have no songs about how brave you died, Kingmaker,” declared Longleaf. “There’s tens o’ thousands dead on your account.”That line is so based you just know they won’t use it. Just like Rhaenyra wont get munched on by a dragon
>>219031614>too afraid to fight Cole lol my fav craven moment
>>219031198>They had no major lord supporterall the major houses aside from Martel and Arryn were kind of indifferent about the whole dispute, bet some even wished both houses would take each other out
>>219031681No point in using it since Ser Incel wasn't a Kingmaker in the show
>>219031671A chad would have 1v1 him instead of being a pussy
>>219030533Blackwoods were banished from the North and settled in the Riverlands, despite this they say they were OG Riverlands kings and Brackens are their rebellious vassals who stole their lands.
>>219031614Cole was not gonna get that Daemon Blackfyre death for the songs
>>219031716>>219031728KEK! No glorious death for traitors, cope.
>>218983946not so fast little finger
>>219031815>No glorious death for traitorstrue
>>219031863Indeed.
what was George even thinking about when she killed Jaehaera and shat out a random velaryon girl for Aegon III to marry? it's narratively stupid and thematically inferior to marrying both sides of the dance
>>219031863Got his ass
>>219031863KEK
>>219031863It was her turn!
the norf remembers
>>219031912he wanted to describe a younger girl as being beautiful
>>219032022Remember what?
>>219032096Jaehaera was 10, i am sure that was young enough for fatman
>>219031717>all the major houses aside from Martel and Arryn were kind of indifferent about the whole disputeNot really, both the Tyrells and the Lannisters fought for Daeron.Leo Tyrell beat the shit out of one of the three Blackfyre armies and drove them out of The Reach.Damon Lannister didn't fare so well against the second Blackfyre army commanded by Fireball, he had to retreat back to Casterly Rock.
>>219031912What? Don't tell me you didn't like the most beautiful girl in Westeros who just happened to be 6 years old?>Daenaera was but six years old, yet so beautiful she took the breath away. The blood of Old Valyria was strong in her, as is oft seen in the sons and daughters of the seahorse; her hair was silver laced with gold, her eyes as blue as a summer sea, her skin as smooth and pale as winter snow.>Daenaera’s smile transformed her face, men agreed; it was sweet and bold and mischievious, all at once.
>>219032207what a pedo hack
For me its the Lyseni slut. I picked her when I played as Aegon III in CK2 and she only gave me strong beautiful boys
>>219005839This is why the anime is inferior to the manga. In the manga there's actually a panel of Egg going>Sir Duncan's Clout! So he was holding back his full power after all...It really sells the idea of the Arlan Style being this hidden powerhouse overlooked by the Nobles
>>219031245>dark haired targmeh he was destined to never sit on the throne and die in a horrible way as George always intends for them
>>219031827lol
>>219032277marry Patricia Redwyne suggest the Lyseni and Dornish girls stay in court to further diplomatic relations and fuck them both toosimple as
>>21903215710, severely autistic and suffering from PTSD, Aegon having lifelong depression was already enough to drive home the point that le dance was bad
>>219032277Toast to your strong boys, king Aenon.
how high is Cole on the all time power tier list? he was surely the strongest of his era at least, right?
The north must practice some form of militia for its foot soldiers, right?Because their training and equipment seem too different from Septon Meribald's anecdotal story about war
>>219032767meribald isn't a reliable source
>>219032277>redwyne>not a redhead
HOW THE FUCK DOES THE BANK OF BRAAVOS FUCKING WORK? HOW CAN YOU KEEP LENDING MONEY TO A WHOLE KINGDOM WITHOUT TAKING ANYTHING AS COLATERAL? HOW WOULD YOU EVEN TAKE THE COLATERAL IF YOU HAD ANY?
>>219033149>Redwynes tend to be freckled and orange of hair.
>>219033316Presumably the Iron Throne had a decent credit history.
>>219033149>>219033371maybe the artist didn't carewhat difference does it make?
>>219032767Grrm's ideas about levies and recruitment in westeros are all over the place. Septon Meribald and The Sworn Swords seem to suggest a cartoonish system where random, (mentally retarded) peasants are pressganged and send on with pitchforks and (almost) zero training.On the other hand all these lords can raise large armies of professional soldiers. The Karstarks bring squares of pikemen for example, iirc. Westeros also seems to be full of freeriders, sellswords, hedgeknights and other mercenaries. What do all of them do under the king's peace? The greyjoy rebellion was a decade ago.
>>219033457>Septon Meribald and The Sworn SwordsHas to be one man's bad memory and the fact Ser Eustace was broke
For me, it's House Baratheon
>>219033714For me it's house Durrandon.
>>219033714>>219033798based
>>219033316Littlefinger spent his career tricking the Lannisters and the Iron Bank into giving each other money while Robert spent it both ways
What if Cat went full "horny MILF" mode and fucked some men-at-arms in Renly's army?
what happened to king robert's baratheon guards?they're present in the show and book for a little bit but then disappear
does anyone else feel like Cole's role in the Dance is kinda underwhelming? Otto feels like a far bigger driving force and much more deserving of the title "Kingmaker", it seems to be one of the things that kinda went away once GRRM actually got around to write the Dance
>>219033924What if Cat went full 'horny MILF' mode and fucked Theon Greyjoy? Would he still attack Winterfell?
>>219034010The Dance overall is poorly written.
>>219034018yes, to capture and wed her
Amazon press with brienne
>>219033714Cucks.
>>219034249name your fav house if it's so great
>>219033556He was talking about the War of the Ninepenny Kings though, which was a foreign expedition to the Stepstones mostly fought by mercenaries. It wasn't a "standard" Westerosi internal war.
>>219034329Good point.Just seems like a lot of fans think all wars in Westeros are like that.
>>219034303House Celtigar :)
>>219033982The Lannisters had been slowly replacing them with their own loyalists for years (not like Robert cared enough to do anything about it), and what was left probably were smart enough to see how the wind was blowing and left town with Renly.
>>219034422you little crab, you!
Why was Aegon the Conqueror's cultural impact on Westeros so tiny?He barely raised any of his own Valyrian followers to nobility. House Qoherys is the only one every mentioned.
