FAQ:
- Wights (zombies) can be killed with fire, but we've never seen a white walker (icy blokes) killed by fire - only by dragonglass or Valyrian steel
- Yes, in the real world, longswords are longer than bastard swords. But in ASOIAF, bastard swords are longer than longswords. (Jon VIII, AGOT)
- Yes, in the tv show, Tywin hires a Volantene smith to reforge Ice. But in the books, it's Tobho Mott. (Tyrion IV, ASOS)
- Yes, in the tv show, Brienne names Oathkeeper. But in the books, Jaime names Oathkeeper. (Jaime IX, ASOS)
- No, Arya's sword Needle is not Valyrian steel. It's regular steel forged in Winterfell.
- No, the Iron Throne isn't Valyrian steel
- Yes, Dawn is cool as fuck, but it's never referred to as Valyrian steel.
Yall can stop commenting about this stuff now 😶
`

True. Dawn is made from a meteor
Where did this metal come to be because the white walkers know of this metal. When Longclaw conneted with the ice blade he knew what it was. The walkers know Varlarian steel.
They can get killed by fire if it's from the dragon.
I thought the dagger now in the possession of Arya was valerian steel.

Honestly, the idea of Tywin not only reforming Ice into two Lannister swords, but also dying it red so that it can never be remade, is sadder than some deaths to me. The death of a long tradition for House Stark. :(
@fabRic_jAck The only reason I can think of is that he figured he might have to sentence some people to death. He had the whole “the man who passes the sentence should swing the sword” philosophy and Ice is really only used for executions.
It's sad but it also almost makes me angry.
Ned being killed wasn't enough, he had to give some additional insult to the Starks after their Warden of the North died. Tywin destroying Ice like that was so vile and petty.
one thing i hated aswell thats a stark artifact to plz an idiot like joffrey

We still have the following books
I’m telling you the whole prince who was promised prophecy thing is gonna be the base for the next sequel. The company is gonna squeeze this for all its money
Its kinda weird how Dany kept her ~8000 unsullied for so long. Im sure that more of them died during the battles, considering the final episode where she has her entire army there, it looks quite sustained in numbers even though many died.
Also, in the second last episode, it was made clear that the lannisters had 20 000 golden company soldiers yet the unsullied looked like they had more than them...

My take on Valyrian steel -- First start with dragonglass (obsidian) being the only other material that can kill a White Walker. Maybe glass made with fire is the magical opposite of glass made from cold. The latter being ice, which is what the White Wallker's blades are made of. Regular steel won't kill a White Walker, but Valyrian steel can. I have to believe then that Valyrian steel is an amalgam of steel and dragonglass. How could this be achieved and why could only ancient Valyria pull this off?
I have found examples of where people have tried to amalgamate obsidian and iron. It does not work to create uniform product. The result is iron mixed with crystals of some really strange minerals.
But what if for the purpose of the story, the Valyrians were able to achieve an amalgamation, but it took a really hot fire to pull it off. The technology of the GOT era would limit the heat sources for a blacksmith to wood, charcoal, and coal. But the Valyrians had another heat source that only they had access to, that being dragon fire. From what is said of the destructive force of dragon fire in the books, it is very, very hot.
So if dragon fire is the ultimate secret of how Valyrian steel is made, then only the ancient Valyrians had access to it and when Valyria was destroyed, the secret was lost and the dragons eventually died off (at least in the more western part of the known world) thus no more new Valyrian steel.
If this was so surely one of the pre-Dance Targaeryen kings would have had the idea to try this I think.
I think there was for sure some magickery shenanigans employed.
@@Ballin4Vengeance I think you are correct. Modern attempts to merge metal with obsidian never work. You get a mass that is part one and part the other. I am comfortable with the "magic required" idea because at the point of time where Game of Thrones is set, magic has been lost and is just then reviving. So before this, making Valyrian steel was not possible.
@@barttorbert5031 I have a theory that it can have something to do with where or how the iron is mined/acquired. Maybe valyrian iron having special characteristics due to forming in a volcanic enviroment, which would explain us having no such thing available to the current world(we don’t know of an active volcano in the known world). It could also be the extreme case that the ore was taken in form of molten lava right from one of the Fires, but that’s a stretch even for ASoIAF.
Wonder what the sword “Dawn” does to white walkers 🤔. It’s not Valyrian steel but made out of a “fallen star”
"Joffrey uses his sword to slay a book..... and then a pie....and then he dies"
I spat out coffee all over my laptop.... damn you guys ...XD XD XD
well the one time we saw him try to fight with a regular steel sword, Arya kicked his little ass.
Haha
Ice = Widow's (Lyanna) Wail + Oathkeeper (promise me Ned). Joffrey thought he was being his typical clever sadistic self when he named it, but it turned out fitting after Jamie/Brianne names Oathkeeper
Jay Gunz genius
I thought it was Catelyn's Wail, since the blade killed her husband before being reforged. Anywat, as Lady Olenna said "He really was a cunt."

9:59 "This is why we need a GoT Prequel"
WELL HERE WE ARE
Thought the same lol
2 small theories after relistening to this years later:
1) Those daggers that Euron brought could be fake. With Valyrian steel being legendary and having a specific look, gotta think some people over the centuries would make lookalikes for profit. so Euron picked some up wholesale or looted them and found their true value.
2) Just thinking the renaming of swords could happen if a duel ended and the winner claimed the Val steel and renamed it. Or when Andal and First Men intermarried, bringing in an ancestral blade from one family and renaming it could have been a way to bind the families.
damn. three eyed raven really got around.
Rahul Seoparsan are we talking about bran or tree wizard guy, cuz if it's bran. Well... FUCK BRAN FOR KILLING HODOR
+Nymeria73 didn't seem too fucked up until Bran traveled to the time in the past while the current Hodor was being killed

It would be interesting to see Jorah's reaction to Jon wielding longclaw ?
GoT writers: "Ain't anybody got time for that ?"
Well he did react to it in season 7, he just wasn’t bothered that Jon had it, since he dishonoured his family and gave up his position.
I wonder if the Dayne's sword Dawn can kill Walkers. It was made from a meteorite, so maybe it has the "fire" in it to kill an Other.
Dawn is Lightbringer
@Faretheewell608 lightbringer is made from valyrian steel right? And Dawn from a comet
@@GeekMasterGM we have not been told enough about the fabled sword that was tempered in a woman's blood. You have Dawn's history correct. The comet that heralded all the magic has the same core as Dawn. Dawn can end the magic/sorcery. Anyway, that is my theory, formed after reading the first book.
"...and finally became a tree-wizard-man."
What a sentence.
DRUID, The word he was looking for was Druid......
So is the guy from zelda secretly one?..... "its dangerous to go alone"
It turns out Jorah's reaction to seeing Jon with Longclaw is extremely mild-mannered and sympathetic.
I think he was just happy knowing that John avenged his father's murder using Longclaw and that the sword is in possession of the king in the north, who Jorah can probably tell right away is an abnormally good and moral man for someone in such a seat of power.
@@22steve5150 Exactly. Add that to the fact that Jon Snow (Targaryen) immediately attempted to return Long Claw to Jorah when he met him in Season 7. I think in Jorah's eyes this act of kindness only furthered his resolve that the sword was in the right hands.
Its also because of Jorah's actions in the past that he feels he doesn't deserve the sword, but aside from that: If Jon offers it to Jorah, he also has to offer it to Lyanna Mormont.

The Valyrian daggers are only thrown about and given away lightly by Euron. There's few if any other characters in Westeros who would be giving away such valuable blades like it was nothing. So that's why Tywin couldn't just buy up daggers to make a Valyrian sword. And they're also probably also scarce, apart from Euron's and LIttlefinger's daggers, I don't think any others are mentioned anywhere.
As always...Great work, Shift!! There was much more than I would've expected for a relatively simple topic. Now, only 180 more swords for you to research then your work on Valyrian swords will be complete.

2. It made the little girl a bloody killer at an age of 9 which beats Sandor by 3 years and he was a healthy boy.
3. It became the hope for a little scared child and helped her to survive the streets of one of the shitiest cities in the Westeros.
4. Bloody Others know what kind of(or rather whose) teeth Polliver used to pick with it.
5. It was reunited with it's rightful master by a twist of fate consumating the union with the blood of the offendors like a true balde should.
6. It is a tool and a symbol of Arya's vengeance which she refuses to discard even at the behest of the Kindly Man.
7. It's going to bloody kill some more people before the story ends.
Nick Dzink I do hope she outgrows it though :D
No chance. (Go watch that video ;))
it was her steadfast link to her family that she couldn't give up. the one thing that she couldn't do was throw it in the water. if not for that token of her self she might have been lost to the Many Faced God.

it's more likely that she'll simply ask to be allowed to kill him. She is a northerner to the bone and he dishonored their family not only by slaving but then again by running. Also, his presence in westeros could call her rule into question.
I think we're gonna see her break her stoic lady persona for a moment and exclaim something along the lines of "Uncle Jorah!!" and maybe run up to hug him, then remember why he left and then scold/punish him.
Season 7 spoilers! If you haven't seen the episode as of 8/20, don't read.
She's...10? Jorah has been gone since at least 7 seasons (years), and was in prison before that. I doubt she's ever seen him, even as an infant. She won't recognize him, though his honor may bind him to apologize.
Now that there's evidence of walkers and how powerful they are, a skilled swordsman will be defended by Jon as necessary. If they're calling for an ending of human combat until the walkers are killed...he's probably safe. He was probably safe since the woman with dragons is his closest friend anyway.
Arya mentions the sword, "Darksister," to Tywin, when she's his cup bearer at Harrenhall.
In the show or the books?
Mayank fifteen Show
huh!? such a keen observer!
@@mayank5341 if you read the books then you'll know its impossible for the answer to have been books. Arya never met twyin in the books, It was Roose Bolton at Harrenhal
Each time I come back to your videos I think I love them even more than the last time
Two thing to say here:
1. I think Valyrian steel is made by merging regular steel with a dragon lords blood or by using steel in some other form of blood magic
2. Perhaps Dawn (the sword of house Dayne) could kill a White Walker as it is known to have similar properties to Valyrian steel. Maybe Valyrian steel comes from space just like the metal Dawn is made of.
Not only are you an entertaining dude making interesting videos, I also respect you for not using unnecessary capital letters in the titles.
Skedetin DaJonne indeed
Valyrian Steel ALL THE SECRETS (GONE SEXUAL)
n how epic u said.... cuz he's a nasty little shit
Jon Snow: I have your sword, here take it
Jorah: Naw mate, i'm good. You're the man, you keep it.
Jon Snow: aww thanks man
That's basically what happened
And then Sam gave Jorah a Valeryian sword more fitting for his size
The three eyed raven cannot see things that happened in essos which ia where valarya is because it's out of his scope.
This guy gave too much thought into something that the writers gave no thought to. Great video I just wish the writers would’ve watched this before season 8
"..on raids with Red Rain in the reach"
I like that sentence.
"Alt Shift X just uploaded a video" is the only thing that makes me click this fast
Hear hear.
Your profile pic triggers me
Burrrnnnn 😂😂😂😂😂
for real i was wondering when i wrote that comment until i read the name lmao
Crazy how we’ve gotten HOTD now
damn just accidentally spoiled some future house of the dragon shit😭
What a tangled web Martin did weave.
There is a sword that you missed. It is called Poison and belongs to "House Vunatis". A dynasty of pirates on the island of Bloodstone in the Stepstones. They stole it in ancient times from a merchant or something if I remember correctly.
That's a CK2 mod? Not canon
Turns out this whole White Walker thing was blown way out of proportion! The issue was resolved within an hour, with one sneak attack by Arya sneakily screaming while jumping at Mr. smirk face Night King, and doing the good old switcheroo.
9:50 Hey I was rooting for that guy, damn
Can you please make History videos using this kind of detailed explanation? ;P
Daniel Felipe I second that idea. Do videos for the historical events in The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli =)
hahaha Twenty seconds in.....He says "These guys are a problem"
Season 8 Episode 3 would like a word lol (will still finish the video, love the insights on your videos)
"This is why we need a Targaryen prequel."
BOY DO I HAVE NEWS FOR YOU
I love how badly every time he says “…it will be interesting to see how that plays out” aged
After watching ep.3 of season 8 all this theoretikal end‘s seem better than the ending of today‘s episode
Correct me if I am wrong but in the show, Jaime didn't name the sword; he let Brienne name it and she chose "Oathkeeper." I don't know about the books though.
Buenomars yep
Buenomars in show yep, in books nope
Buenomars i just read the book. Didnt jaime give briennes Joffreys sword?
And yesterday we learnt Jamie keeps Jeoffrey's sword on his belt
Buenomars i was about to say that, you are correct i watched that episode a few days ago... again
Bro the lore is soo crazy
I think you should start updating the descriptions with "spoilers for HOTD ahead"
Can't bran just see back in time to when valerian was still making the steal and learn how to make it?
Jack Dalton technically yes, but the show- producers are dumb. And george martin only writes the books, not the show, so i think this would only happen in the books. Did you see how stupid the last two seasons were in comparison to the other 5 before? Yeah thats when the seasons came before the book, and not the other way around.
MrGollum1996 six was okay. Five was bad but not outrageously. Personally I think that season seven was the only season that could be considered a crime to George R. R. Martin's legacy. Sadly it probably won't get any better.
Unless you cannot get all the ingredients to make it. Bran is no swordsmith either :P
Potentially, yes, but there are a few problems, first and foremost being that right now he doesn't have the time, the White Walkers are too close. Another problem is how his abilities work, he can watch the Master Smiths of old Valyria work but he can't participate himself, it's a big difference watching a video of work being done and doing it yourself. And lastly, I'm pretty sure a major component of making Dragon Steel (the other name for Valyrian Steel) is Dragon Fire, currently there are only two around, neither available for smith duties
You need dragon fire to forge the obsidian (mineral base of valarian steel aka dragon glass). He hasn't met Dany and her dragons yet.
Im happy that Ser Jorah was fine knowing Jon has Long Claw 😊
ASX: go watch that video
Me: bro I’ve been watching your videos all day
9:29:00 Season 1 of the Prequel, that we wanted back when this video came out, is in the books! The showdown at Gods Eye is looking fantastic at this point.
This video isn't 9 hours long man lol
@@I_am_a_cat_ get a life and go to the 9 minute mark
Cersei is going to get Widow's Wail. There's poetic justice there.
TheSoulofaGremlin Jamie has it now.
She'll get it.. plunged through her heart.
TheSoulofaGremlin Jamie got it
She won't know what to do with it
Widow's wail is with Jamie, it was revealed when Jamie killed lady tyril
Oh sweet summer child, thinking another book will be finished before the reaper arrives.
'This is why we need a game of thrones prequel' heehee
Good to see that despite Season 8's ending, interest in ASOIAF and the world of GoT hasn't died down
People loved the books decades before the show even existed
@@EndOfSmallSanctuary97 yeah, so hopefully the love for the world of ASOIAF continues for decades more
The way I understand the dagger situation is that nobody is willing to part with any amount of valyrian steel for any amount of money, keeping Tywin from buying any amount of it to reforge. In fact, I believe at one point the books specifically reference how even broke noble families will never sell their Valyrian blades. Euron, being the magic-obsessed raider that he is, located the daggers, which, while more common than full swords, would still be considered priceless, but he claims them with iron, not gold, killing their owners to assemble his badass loot pile.
Or he really went to Valyria
