      I like to think it was his wife's name. Lyanna was safe at the tower of joy while Elia and her children were basically hostages of the mad king. The prince of dragonstone planned to slay his rebellious "cousin" and then restore order in the kingdoms. I imagine he wouldnt have bothered punishing Ned Stark or Jon Aryn but at this point Robert had caused such a ruckus he had to be put down. When his breastplate crushed his chest all his goals and plans for an era of peace and prosperity flashed before his eyes. Everything he failed to do including, most importantly, getting his children to safety "...lia"

    I'm pretty sure the "white lion running through grass taller than a man" refers to Tyrion.
    He has white hair (in the books, that is) running from Westeros, and the grass being very tall could be that the lion is very small.

      FYI it would be the grass that is taller than the man - or, arguably, the man in question (the white lion) could be shorter than the grass.
      Given that Jon is a white wolf, the white lion could easily be Tyrion and therefore a Lannister - makes sense to me.

    13:36 I think its Aemon Targaryen. He's on a ship in Bravos when he is told about Daenerys's dragons. Corpse- he is about to die. Eyes bright- he is happy and excited for Daenerys, smiling sadly- because he wants to be with Dany, guide her and teach her but know he won't because he is about to die. Aemon says 'Another Targaryen alone in the world'

      I thought that the prophecies where related with the message. When she saw the visions of Viserys, Rhaegar and Rhaego says "Daughter of Dead", what I understand as the deaths of her brothers and son make her the Mother of Dragons. When the Stannis, Aegon and the dragon of stone (I think will be one of Dany's dragons, who will capture by Qyburn and turned into zombie for fake Tommen's parentege) visions happen the undyigns says "Slayer of Lies". After, came the visions of Silver in her first night, the men in the ship and the winter rose at the wall, and they say "Bride of Fire" what I thought would be about tragic relationships she will have.
      Anyways, what you say makes a lot of sense.

    at 11:23 I always felt that the 'casts no shadow' line referred to the fact that in terms of being Azor Ahai, Stannis had no substance or true value. He is built on glamours and forced asthetic, but in terms of the prophecy he is not really tangibly present. Also please keep up this amazing work, and I'd love to see you turn your hand to some other works like the Expanse Saga (though I've never seen the actual show)

      @usazambia 6 лет назад +14

      On the “casts no shadow,” I’ve always related it to how a small man can cast a big shadow. The opposite is how a big man can cast a small, or no, shadow; this would be a mummer’s hero.
      I’ve recently seen a riddle that identified fire does not cast a shadow (it makes shadows dance, but there is no shadow of a flame). So I wonder if the fire wights cast shadows. Does Barrick Dundarien and Lady Stoneheart cast a shadow. Will the hero with the glowing sword cast a shadow?

    • @usazambia
      @usazambia 6 лет назад +3

      To add, if fire wights are of fire, and if fires have no shadows of their own flames, then should we infer that fire wights too would have no shadows of themselves? If this makes sense, then for this “king who cast no shadow”, is this king of fire too, is he a fire wight?
      But what about the “blue-eyed” part? That is what happens to the wights, that is to say that is what happens to those whom are slain by the Others and their minions, those whom are of the domain of ice. So is this “blue-eyed” king an ice wight?
      What happens when a fire wight is slain by the Others and is made into an ice wight? A fire wight is resurrected by fire, and an ice wight is resurrected by ice, so is this a Fire and Ice wight? The first of his kind? The first of his name?

    • @DavidbarZeus1
      @DavidbarZeus1 6 лет назад +10

      Another potential explanation to Stannis casting no shadow is that he leaves no lasting legacy on Westeros. For all the books focus on him, he hasn't really managed to DO anything, outside of ensure the destruction of his house. When Stannis dies, House Baratheon dies with him.

Yet she walked away because their were more important issues beyond the wall.. She went to fight for humanity's cause.. Beyond the wall she meets Drogo, who initially bought her & raped her, then she learnt how to love, & she became the moon in his eyes.. It could mean her true love was beyond the wall who will give her a child!!

    I think it's fairly obvious that Viserys is the treason for gold. Viserys was stealing Daenerys's dragon eggs, intending to sell to the traders of Vaes Dothrak for gold to buy himself a sellsword army and then is killed with a golden crown (which could be a point where Dany "betrays" her brother as well)...I think the reason people are confused on this point is the order. If the betrayal for blood is Mirri Maz Duur, why Viserys be mentioned after that when his betrayal was first...the thing is, all of the prophecies are mentioned in a random order. You'll have Viserys, Rhaegar and Rhaego, which is recent past, far past, and impossible future. The only prophecy that is not shown is the "fire to love, mount to love, treason for love" which all seem to point to Jon Snow.

    If Stannis' fate (and Shirreen's) ends up being anything like it is in the show, it'll really make that line from Danaerys' vision about seeing a 'king who casts no shadow' seem pretty poetic. Especially since Varys uses a shadow as a metaphor for influencing the world when talking to Tyrion. Stannis and his entire line is wiped out in his pursuit of the crown, so he casts no shadow in the way that Tyrion is a small man who casts a long shadow.

    Betrayal for gold = Viserys
    He didn't literally betray her and not for gold but this is how it ended up to be. Being given to Drogo was seen by Dany as her brother's betrayal and a golden crown was all Viserys got in the end. So, I believe, it can be said that he betrayed her for gold.

      @mataya-waldenberg Год назад +5

      I actually don't think that Daenerys' character ending will be that much different in the books. I think it's just easy to blame something external than be confronted with unwittingly having supported an unstable homicidal maniac. I myself was a huge fan of her, until I realized with season 7 that she was a cautionary tale about strongman characters and saviour figures. It was uncomfortable to have this realization, as I was confronted with how I was actually glorifying her acts of extreme violence, as it was in my interest to see antagonists like the slave masters be defeated and the slaves freed. Considered one of the greatest U.S. presidents for his New Deal policies and wartime leadership, Franklin D. Roosevelt was still responsible for the arbitrary mass internment of people of Japanese ancestry during WW2 and was also known for having an autocratic tendency in his governing style. George R. R. Martin often says that he finds the greatest inspiration in history and loves writing about the greyness within the human heart. So I believe it only makes sense that Daenerys' is the story of how volatile the perception of a hero can become, when lit up from all sides (pun intended).

    • @ez52
      @ez52 Год назад +26

      @@mataya-waldenberg Well that doesn't really make sense in the context of the books. Currently, Daenerys is fighting a war against the slaveowners and nobility of Essos -- these slaveowners are spreading horrible & defaming lies about her (saying she bathes in blood, sleeps with animals, calling her a "monster" whose "true sin" is her anti-slavery perspective). Why would GRRM include these passages if his main goal is to represent Daenerys as a villain?
      It's specifically the slaveowners who despise her -- compare this with what The Widow of the Waterfront has to say about her. Read that chapter.
      Not to mention that in GRRM's other novel 'Fevre Dream' (1982), he writes that
      "[slavery] has got to end even if it has to be with fire and blood" -- clearly, GRRM recognises that ending slavery is difficult and will be a bloody, arduous process. This doesn't mean Daenerys is a villain; in fact, there's no textual evidence that Daenerys is a villain.
      GRRM takes care to paint Daenerys' actions in a positive light, through purposeful linguistic choices and symbolism. E.g. Daenerys' liberation of Astapor is directly paralleled with her dream about Rhaegar on the Trident, facing enemies that are "armoured in ice" -- this scene is followed directly after Daenerys talking to Barristan about "justice" being the quality of a "true king", hence we are invited to see Daenerys' dream of burning an ice army with dragonfire as justice.
      And yes, Kraznys (the slaver who Daenerys burns in Astapor), is described to melt just like the ice army in Daenerys' dream.
      Another thing that proves to me that Daenerys' ending will not be like the TV Show is that GRRM changed the birth order of Alysanne and Jaehaerys' children -- he added a child named Daenerys. Look at how that child died, and compare that to Dany IX in AGOT. Jaehaerys wanted his daughter to have a dragon to heal her; Dany's ancestors urge her to embrace the dragon to flee from the "icy breath" -- Dany survives! Plus, Alysanne was adamant that her daughter would be a "great queen" (Alysanne is rarely wrong... so I believe this great queen will be Daenerys Stormborn).
      I also want to mention that the TV show made Daenerys much more violent; in the books, Daenerys is the one who controls her advisors' bloodlust and she is a brilliant teenage strategist. She has immense empathy and kindness for the disenfranchised, bathes and feeds sick people, refuses to let dwarfs fight in the fighting pits because they have not consented, insists that food should be given to the poor instead of being thrown away.
      In the books, Dany never threatened to burn down Qarth and other cities (unlike the TV show). She's also rebuilding Meereen by planting trees, promoting the freedmen to work, improving the city, taking taxes to weaken the noble families and invest in Meereen (etc).

This is further enforced through the constant references in the text to Dany being fire (“the fire is mine”/“the fire within her, and the whisperings of stars”/“the bride of fire”) and dragons are described as “fire made flesh”. Her connections to her dragons are also seen in how she could feel something “twist and stretch” inside the stone eggs when she touched them - she also “could feel the heat” of her stone eggs but Jorah only felt “cold stone” when he touched them.)

      For Danny's vision in the show:
      the broken throne room could have snow on it, or ash. And the throne room could mean many things.
      - snow meaning the dead have arrived into king's landing and destroyed the red keep, and she survived somehow roaming the wasteland with her dragon (the torch could signify her last dragon). Or (Snow/Stark) will take over the throne.
      - Or it's ashes from Cersei having burned downed King's landing and she's left with nothing (from the season 8 teaser trailer).
      - Or the fact that when Daenerys' tries to reach for the throne and touch it could signify that she will not get the throne, (likely from dying or Jon getting the throne)
      After she tries to touch the throne you could hear two faint scream or screech, facing where the gates of the wall appears, signifying that one or two of her dragons may die (one already did) from the dangers beyond the wall.
      And her entering the tent with Drogo just foreshadows her joining him in death, and that when spring comes maybe the sun does rise and set on the opposite since GRR said there will be a fix to this weird climate in Westoros.

Just as in real life, there will be those who think they have found 'the answer', and some who bring things about because they believe it's been foretold, as well as some who see no real connection between the dreams/prophesies and events. Look at how variously the characters interpret the coming of the red comet. There is no 'correct' interpretation. It simply means different things to different people.

    The Golden company was founded by Aegor Rivers, also known as Bittersteel. He was one of Aegon IV's (the Unworthy) great bastards. His mother was Barba Bracken, Aegon's fifth mistress.
    When he was legitimised, he mixed both of his parents' banners together; with house Bracken's red horse and house Targaryen's dragon, his banner became a red horse with black wings with fire coming out of its mouth.
    That is the theory regarding "the silver-haired rider with copper skin"; it is not Rhaego, but it's Aegon riding with the Golden Company in Westeros.

    Quick interpretation of the show version of her visions:
    1. Dani reaches Westeros and have perhaps even taken Kings Landing at this point, but because of the threat of the White Walkers and the long night (symbolized through snow in the throne room) she can't sit on the throne to rule just yet.
    2. Therefore she makes way to the wall to face the White Walkers and the army of the dead. My interpretation is that she will some way lose her life during this fight. This leads us to the third vision where Dani and Drogo are reunited in the afterlife.
    Of course I may be totally wrong about this, and I probably am.

    Now that I think about it I think the betrayal for love could be Ilyrio supporting Aegon, that is assuming the theory that Ilyrio is Aegon's father and that he is a blackfyre is correct which I personally believe is. Because she sees Ilyrio as a true ally from the beginning always helping her and keeping her safe but he actually has been trying to get Aegon, a blackfyre, on the iron throne (love of course because it's his son). Thought tbh it very much could go an insane amount of ways but yeah, that's just a thought I had. :)

    Just before the vision of prince Rhaegar says "There has to be one more" as in three dragon heads, or three children, he looks straight at Daenerys! She can see him looking at her and when he speaks, she's not sure if he was talking to her or the ghost woman in the bed (Elia). It seems here that in the House of the Undying, Daenerys saw things past and present and future. It's possible that when she was seeing her brother from many years ago, he saw a vision of her. He might've seen her and knew that she was a vision but didn't know that she was his baby sister.

    Great content. Really accurate. Although I don't think the dragons will be of service when it comes to killing white walkers in the books. because since GRRM paused to write fire and blood i think the information he gives us there, tells us what can the dragons do. and in fire and blood the good queen alysanne when she visits the wall tries to pass beyond the wall. she fails three times. “Thrice I flew Silverwing high above Castle Black, and thrice I tried to take her north beyond the Wall,” Alysanne wrote to Jaehaerys, “but every time she veered back south again and refused to go. Never before has she refused to take me where I wished to go. I laughed about it when I came down again, so the black brothers would not realize anything was amiss, but it troubled me then and it troubles me still.” (Fire and Blood 263) We do not know why Silverwing didnt obey her. It may be the spells the children of the forest put on the wall or it may be that dragons just dont like cold. Her account in Fire and Blood actually supports this. Therefore, I don't think we will see much of the dragons in the north fighting with the white walkers. I don't actually think that we will ever see a fight in the north between the white walkeers and humans. I think it will be averted with something Bran and the children of the forest does.

Arya's about 10 in the books and why would Daenerys have two visions of her childhood home? My guess is that Arya running towards the red door will have something to do with her faceless training.
