Great summary, but you missed the most important event: the forest people created the Night King and his army by infecting a first man. This was to be the ultimate weapon against the first men. It backfired.
@hoodedcobra6716. Fair enough. I read the books but I can’t for the life of me remember anything about the forest peoples or the beginnings of the Night King and the undead army.
@londonassassin9894I do not know yet, I just started to read 1st book, but the world of ice and fire has some information. But not by children of the forest
I still wish... that the mad king's "burn them all" was really Bran going into his mind from the future trying to tell him to burn the white walkers... but the mad king couldn't comprehend and went crazy.
I thought something similar and expected it to reveal itself like the Hodor scene but it didn't, I guess it was just foreshadowing of his daughters demise.
I thought this at first but it makes more sense that it was the former three eyed raven. Or current in the books. Bran was marginalized in the final battle though. But the TV show went in such a different direction it's hard to know where the books will go with so many characters either alive, dead or just not existing in the TV show.
There's a theory that Bloodraven made Aerys mad, he was the Three-eyed Raven at the time, and we know for a fact his magic could reach beyond the Wall. Ser Barristan describes Lord Darklyn (one who abducted Aerys) acting "as if he was possessed". Bloodraven does have a history of manipulating and even assassinating Targaryens, and lot of the times GRRM used "perpetrator being possessed" or "Bloodraven had an alibi of sleeping in his room" as clues that he's used his abilities to control/get rid of powerful people. It's also possible that he messed with Aegon V's (Egg) mind because Egg also snapped unexpectedly like Aerys and became fire obsessed, and caused tragedy of Summerhall, even Dunk mentions he couldn't recognise Egg in last few years of his life. The goal would be to bring back dragons hence the botched ritual at Summerhall, and also maybe revenge on Egg since he was the only one to see through Bloodraven's tricks. There's even a crazier theory that Bloodraven actually leads Bran to him not to teach him but to snatch his body and warg into him forever, since his own body is decaying of old age. He's tied to that tree so that he can extend his life artificially until a new Greenseer is born (Bran), and when Bran is old enough he leads him to becoming cripple and mentally broken to make him easy to manipulate and convince to go beyond the Wall. That makes more sense than the immortal puppetmaster just "helping" Bran. He ruled Westeros from shadows for like 4-5 generations of kings, why'd he suddenly disappear and let go of his ambitions, and then reappear just before Bran falls from tower, not to mention that the raven literally leads bran to that exact window.
@JohnDoe-zy6tm I don't want to spend my life worrying about tugging along the lowest common denominators through every concept that confuses or scares them..so..no thanks.
@erikostebo2152 A good Story being much later believed to be history has precedence was my point. You argue no one could ever believe in a story with a “wtf” then flip to you don’t care to drag the “lowest” along to explain to them… it looks like your argument is no one would believe and when it’s pointed out this happens you just shrug. Either way folks do believe stories. Even demonstrably fictional ones. Popularity beats reality for the masses. It wouldn’t surprise me a bit to find out GOT has a following that believed in it thousands of years from now.
bitcoinethereum9702 this has to be the dumbest take about TSOIAF that I've ever read on Internet for decades. Oh wow how dumb can some people be. I'm amazed at your audacity to spout nonsense when you have not even read Tolkien nor ASOIAF..........
bitcoinethereum9702 as someone who has read all of Tolkien's work and GRR Martin's, you are correct. Parts of ASOIAF are lifted directly from the War of the Rose's and the historic battles and families involved. Tolkien also did the same with the Silmarillion and the story of the creation the Ainur, the Universe and Arda. Its basically a prequel to the Bible. The Valar are presented like Pagan gods, with elves and dwarfs orcs ect..to account for British, Irish and Scandinavian mythology. Our earth exists in 2026 of the 7th age of man according to Tolkien (BBC interview 1972), with end of 3rd age being Saurons defeat Aragorn becoming King. Birth of Jesus began the 7th age.
Bro we didn’t even get the main story yet and the ending was outrageous bad and rushed 😂 I just wonder if its to much to ask to just have the main story, it does have to have a proper ending , i just don’t want that ending we got
@spaceman69 I think that in like 10-15 years AI will be able to create this continuation to the series that looks indistinguishable from the original GOT.
@strondus Don't worry, it won't. And by that time the funding bubble will have burst (likely crashing the US economy along with it - that'll be a good laugh for the rest of the world) and because the AI companies won't be able to afford to lobby government (because no-ones going to invest in a provably loss-making industry post-burst - you know the industry is just _haemorrhaging_ money, right?) we - the grown ups - can finally regulate them out of existence in their current form. And we can go back to calling it applied machine learning, and do something useful with it rather than.... *checks notes* ....creating soulless garbage for the lack-minded to laugh at, like toddlers having keys jangled in front of them.
It’s a bit like Italians .. I married into the mafia and in a room full of people if you yelled GIUSEPPE.. or JOE, FRANK and Domenic.. dozens would turn around.. or more accurately all of them.. 😂
A drinking game wherein you study the history of British rulers and drink every time you see/hear Richard, John, or Charles. 20 minutes in? Your liver just yeets itself right out of your body.
You think that's unique to the fantasy world of Martin? How many Richards, Henrys and Ludwigs/Louis'es have been kings in western Europe? In France alone, 16 Louis'es have sat on the throne. Reality most often surpasses fiction in many ways. 😉
@haleytucker6751 If memory serves well (*), the king that got his head chopped off during the French revolution was the sixteenth Louis. Try to beat that, Targaryens. 😉 In spite of your examples, the most used birth name of English / UK kings is Edward (11 times), with Henry being the second most frequent. Richard only comes in at fifth place, after George and William. [Charles and John (Juan) do make the top 5 in Spain though 😉]. It is claimed that Italy had a king named Pippin, but that clearly must be an error for we all know that Pippin was the 32nd Thane of the Shire and never king of Italy. The fact that his full name was Peregrin Took, *does* allow us to not confuse him with Pepin the Short, the first Carolingian king and father of Charlemagne. It could be confusing when looking at the height of Halflings / Hobbits, and therefore mistake Pepin the Short for the Hobbit Peregrin Took... but if we keep in mind that Peregrin was exceptionally tall for a Hobbit - at least after he returned to to the Shire - that should remove all potential confusion. (*) I'm applying some false modesty here. 😁
@Damiloskyeggs daughter was married to Lyonel baratheon's son after ser Duncan, as lord commander of Egg's kings guard, ended the Storm Kings rebellion by defeating him in single combat. Dunk beat his ass and reconciled with Lyonel after eggs son broke a betrothal with Lyonels daughter. So Robert is eggs great great grandson.
Exactly. That's why, when it was all over, HE was the one who took the throne. They did the genealogy, and decided he had the strongest claim, by right of bloodline. He also led the rebellion, but it was NOT right of conquest, alone. He was descended from the Targaryens, but through the FEMALE line, and thanks to that counsel bypassing the woman with a stronger claim, because EWWWWW! Vagina!, he was considered NOT an heir. But then, he got rid of all the other known heirs, so suddenly, his Targaryen blood MATTERED.
The Night king doesn’t exist in the books. As well as Aegon having a dream about the world ending. Aegon was never a dreamer in the books. The show changed quite a lot and even left out major characters
JRR Martin writes like God. Complex, detailed, slow like the life it self. What a genius 🙌🙌 And how he mocks us ( simple people) keeping the same names, and extremely complicated relations 😅😭
Very good video to watch. Especially in the ending explanation of the Prince that was promised, who kills the night king, but the song of ice and fire references. Jon Snow/Aegon Targaryen is at the center of humanity's survival against the White Walkers. Daenerys played a major role with equipment, troops, dragons and her decision to halt the major conflict for the sake of existence. It was never to downplay Daenerys' Importance, but Jon Snow took the lead, with the history behind d him, and everything he learned and accomplished in his life to that point, HE was the Prince that was promised
I think its hard for Grrm to finish it now that the show finished it for him. If he copies the shows version, he just took the easy way out, but if he changes it too much the huge fanbase will hate it.. so its given him "writers block". Im reality its just a tug of war between how he wants to write it and how the fans want it to be written.
@BlizzyBravado127 No one would hate if he changed the shows ending. Most fans hated the ending of the show which is why he wont finish. He probably gave them his early notes for the ending and it wasnt received well so now hes stuck in a loop of trying to think of a better way. Oh and he just wants to be in Hollywood too.
@JDawnchild yeah i agree, i miss spoke i guess.. i also hated the ending, or atleast alot of things that happened but the overall plot they went with was good, minus like Dany dying and maybe even Bran being crowned king n jon being went back to the wall. otherwise the way things played out overall wasnt too bad imo.
The "reason" for everything is the survival of the Long Night, but the "contradiction" is that the human pursuit of power, ego, and "reason" (via the Maesters) almost always got in the way of that goal.
@svetlana.chetverikova Daenerys 3 eggs are very likely the 3 eggs that Elissa Farman stole. She sold the eggs in braavos to fund her voyages and build her ship. After that no one knows where they truly went but they are very likely the 3 that Daenerys ends up with
This is an absolutely brilliant encapsulation of the entire history and sequence of events that connects it all. Kudos to you all for putting this together!
Nice 👍🏿 video. But you forgot to note that it was the Children of the forest that created the Night King from a First man to protect themselves from the The First Men but it backfired
0:59 Who are you and why hasn't the algorithm brought your channel to me sooner? 👀 I haven't even watched the whole video and I'm a fan. The background, the aesthetic, the monotone seriousness. Yess QUEEN...
Probably the messed up seasons mess them up. They’re too busy trying to survive the extreme shifts in weather to have the luxury of exploring science. Plus the maesters are said to be devoted to destroying magic; maybe electricity is magical to them.
Not only was the knife used (on the show) to kill the night’s king, it kicked off the Dance on HotD (Alicent pulls it on Rhaenyra), not to mention the war of the five kings (“Catspaw” implied to have been sent by a “lion” to kill “cat’s” cub, but is instead defeated by Cat + summer, bran’s cub, a part of him)
never watched this series and think I never will but the D&D aspect seems quite good but I like my dragons as they were depicted in "Vox Machina" although that series was also riddled with woke garbage and in the end turned out to be disappointing
it would great if they make the "long night" as prequel for game of thrones. The night king and withe walker it more intresting and a good story to see
No it was not. It was Aegon's dream, this is explained many different times throughout the books, as well as House of the Dragon show. Daenys foresaw the Doom of Valyria.
@Darva2 no it’s not lol. The books have never stated or confirmed that Aegon was a dreamer. Half of this video is show lore only. The night king doesn’t even exist in the books. Also the children of the forest didn’t create the white walkers in the books either. No one knows where they actually originate from in the books
There can be an argument that Princess/Queen Daena Targaryen, daughter of Aegon III had a better claim to the throne than Viserys II (Aegon IV's father) and rumors that Viserys was a mummer's dragon. The real Viserys died during The Dance when Aegon III was able to get away on his young dragon and Viserys was left behind. The man who would be Viserys II is rumored to be an imposter groomed by the Rogare Family, a banking family from Tyrosh. Daemon Blackfyre was as more Daena's son than Aegon IV's.
@9:30 you said “that’s not coincidence…that’s George RR Martin.” I would argue it’s not GRRM…HBO. GRRM hasn’t weighed in on it yet. If the delayed book would hurry up already! But your comment suggests he came up with Arya killing the night king. But I don’t think Martin has made that claim yet. 🤷🏽♂️
18:28 kinda misleading the way presented (understandable given it's the same year) but during the current season of 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms', DaeronII is still King... not Aerys I. The spring sickness and the death of Daeron II and his grandsons happens the same year but AFTER the tourney at Ashford Meadow and where 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' picks up.
The prince and his song of Ice and Fire united them all to serve Aegon's prophecy. Jon himself being Ice and Fire added further layers. This was his role. The role of a prince who was promised. Night king believed himself to be invincible only to be killed by a young women a third his size. Sweet. Industrious as she is, she must have really believed what Melisandre told her in earlier seasons about killing men with brown, green, blue eyes. Arya was a perfect candidate to kill Night King because she took a semester abroad in Braavos as a faceless. Plus, Jon himself had a long night anyway. After fighting walkers, flying and fighting dragons killing The Night King would have looked silly.
The only good moment in the ending to be honest 😂 anything else was pure shit but this moment and the end of her journey was epic. ……What do we say to the death? 😊

@hoodedcobra6716how did the night king get created then? I have not read the books and clearly need to, immediately!
@londonassassin9894I do not know yet, I just started to read 1st book, but the world of ice and fire has some information. But not by children of the forest
One day we wish to see the series of Valeria where everything begin
and Ashai-by-the-shadow
From your mouth to God’s ears
It’s all I want. They just keep choosing stories that honestly don’t really matter
A single 2-3 hour movie would be at least okay 😂
@captainmaim
Im with you! Asshai would be the best story of all.
I still wish... that the mad king's "burn them all" was really Bran going into his mind from the future trying to tell him to burn the white walkers... but the mad king couldn't comprehend and went crazy.
it was probably his brother.

it always baffles me that nobody ever seems to connect that Jon Snow is literally the song of ICE & FIRE, being half Stark and half Targaryen.
Too bad he turned out to be completely irrelevant and his entire character arc is ruse.
Part correct
Dani and Jon BOTH
DANI THINKS SHE IS A TARG but is a Stark
JON THINKS (thought ) he was a Stark but is a TARG
@N1mr DANI THINKS SHE IS A TARG but is a Stark - whut?!?! She is a Stark? Im not tracking here man
@N1mr Jon is both. Dani isn't a stark.
@MDog_FPVDani is full blown incest Targ. Jon is half Stark and half Targ.
George R.R. Martin is this generation's Tolkien. The lore and depth of history he has created with this epic world is staggering
I was just thinking that. Like imagine being in that guys brain.
He’s a Tolkien copycat not another Tolkien
I always questioned what inspired them..... What did they see that we can't? This historic stories are not ordinary
MAYBE you could claim that if he would even attempt to finish the series

Like the bible.
We NEED to see all of this on screen, from beginning to end.
All except for the part where Arya kills the Night King
GRRM can’t even get it out of his head and on to paper, let alone on screen.
and all this was thought by a single human being?? Gosh he is amazing!

This video is exactly what I needed, yet I still have no idea who any of the characters are by name 😂
it's Ai. just ask GPT.
You forgot to mention that the children of the forest created the first white walker to help them fend off the invading first men
Not in the books
Yeah guess that little fact wasn't important enough 😂😂😂
04:36 They came... Wait a minute... didn't the children "create" the white walker?
Maybe….maybe not
In the show. We know nothing about how it will happen in the books.
First someone give unique names to Targaryens
So many demons and aegons so confusing
It’s a bit like Italians .. I married into the mafia and in a room full of people if you yelled GIUSEPPE.. or JOE, FRANK and Domenic.. dozens would turn around.. or more accurately all of them.. 😂
A drinking game wherein you study the history of British rulers and drink every time you see/hear Richard, John, or Charles. 20 minutes in? Your liver just yeets itself right out of your body.
Aegon V named his son Duncan, which was unusual Targaryen's name. Luckily, both were burned
in Summerhall.

How many Richards, Henrys and Ludwigs/Louis'es have been kings in western Europe?
In France alone, 16 Louis'es have sat on the throne.

The biggest question is Where did Drogon bring Daenarys dead body?
I bet he took her back to the old castle.
I also bet that she isn't dead.
The Targaryen dynasty wasn't technically over with Robert Baratheon, as he had Targaryen blood.
Source: Trust me bro
@Damiloskyeggs daughter was married to Lyonel baratheon's son after ser Duncan, as lord commander of Egg's kings guard, ended the Storm Kings rebellion by defeating him in single combat. Dunk beat his ass and reconciled with Lyonel after eggs son broke a betrothal with Lyonels daughter. So Robert is eggs great great grandson.

What we don’t realize is Martin would probably be dead before the next book is released
there's no hope for it...is there? he probably doesnt have the motivation to complete it since everything is already done via television
we all realize it. Anyone who thinks he's going to complete anything else is a sweet summer child.
The genius of George R R Martin is underrated.
I really think they should make a series on Robert’s rebellion called harenhall paul bettany as a young Tywin Lannister would be brilliant.
I don’t think they ever will. I’m pretty sure George has said that all the major events that started the rebellion have already been revealed.
The show writers forgot that the Night King was the final boss, not Cersei Lannister.
The Night king doesn’t exist in the books. As well as Aegon having a dream about the world ending. Aegon was never a dreamer in the books. The show changed quite a lot and even left out major characters
The source material was only 2/3rds of the show.
JRR Martin writes like God. Complex, detailed, slow like the life it self. What a genius 🙌🙌
And how he mocks us ( simple people) keeping the same names, and extremely complicated relations 😅😭
Legend has it that GRRM comes to this video once in a while to get a recap.
Very good video to watch. Especially in the ending explanation of the Prince that was promised, who kills the night king, but the song of ice and fire references. Jon Snow/Aegon Targaryen is at the center of humanity's survival against the White Walkers.

It was never to downplay Daenerys' Importance, but Jon Snow took the lead, with the history behind d him, and everything he learned and accomplished in his life to that point, HE was the Prince that was promised
what a storytelling , felt like mum was telling all these stories , best nostalgiaaa, kudoss
It’s important to note that the last quarter or so is show lore, as the books aren’t (and let’s be real, won’t be) finished
I think its hard for Grrm to finish it now that the show finished it for him. If he copies the shows version, he just took the easy way out, but if he changes it too much the huge fanbase will hate it.. so its given him "writers block".

@BlizzyBravado127This is why I'm of the opinion that authors should not allow production atudios to touch their works until the series is done.
@BlizzyBravado127 No one would hate if he changed the shows ending. Most fans hated the ending of the show which is why he wont finish. He probably gave them his early notes for the ending and it wasnt received well so now hes stuck in a loop of trying to think of a better way. Oh and he just wants to be in Hollywood too.

If there were 7 dragon eggs, Danerys had only three. Where are the remaining 4?
Unknown
Destroyed or lost, no one really knows
I think all 7 eggs were destroyed in Summerhall, and Denys 3 were some other ones.
@svetlana.chetverikova Daenerys 3 eggs are very likely the 3 eggs that Elissa Farman stole. She sold the eggs in braavos to fund her voyages and build her ship. After that no one knows where they truly went but they are very likely the 3 that Daenerys ends up with
This is amazing! Thank you it really cleared up alot for me
One clan to rule them all; one clan to find them; one clan to bring them all and in the Winter bind them.
Ok Gandalf. 😂
Thank you for this video. Its very nice to hear this... very helpful.
Wish we could get a sequel of Aria or someone going west
awesome, loved this. thank you
This was an amazing summarization
Excellent excellent summary. Highly recommend it
Jon Snow was that prince that was promised.
Thanks! Great recap!
We must remember that THE MAD KING was abducted and tortured for sometime...where he was saved by the knight Bariston...thats what made him mad.
Pretty sure it was the inbreeding
No. he was mad before from inbreeding but yeah the kidnapping and torture probably made him worse.
Amazing!! Thanks so much.
This video would be so much better w/o the 80s video game music in the background
That they couldn’t even bother to fade in and out properly, it just crops up and cuts off out of nowhere.

Lol..daz why it's called a fantasy😂😂
They too busy inbreeding
Not in the books 😆
Probably the messed up seasons mess them up. They’re too busy trying to survive the extreme shifts in weather to have the luxury of exploring science. Plus the maesters are said to be devoted to destroying magic; maybe electricity is magical to them.
It took us longer in reality.
Amazing summary of the GoT world
Backstories of backstories
I love this summary, and the narrator. 😊
R.R is an out of the world... World Building Master.
I will prove myself worthy to be a World Builder rather than just telling story
This was sooooo good I watched till the end with excitement 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
The background music messed me up
It's absolutely terrible
Great Summary.
the andals werent mentioned at all. Strange
Awesome summary
Wonder how many viewers of GOT realise there was no Night King in the original books, just the others aka the white walkers
Night king is simply a white walker but the commander of all the rest walkers
Thanks for this
Why is nobody talking about the music being possessed?
The freaking AI voice horrible
But yeah, you are so right with the music
Excellent ! Best timeline for the George RR Martin Universe I have seen so far ... ! Loved it !!
Not only was the knife used (on the show) to kill the night’s king, it kicked off the Dance on HotD (Alicent pulls it on Rhaenyra), not to mention the war of the five kings
(“Catspaw” implied to have been sent by a “lion” to kill “cat’s” cub, but is instead defeated by Cat + summer, bran’s cub, a part of him)
There's no better name than Ainus Blackfyre
No. The knife s arc is not JR Martin; that is D&D who decided it’ll be cool to have Arya killing the night king.
never watched this series and think I never will but the D&D aspect seems quite good but I like my dragons as they were depicted in "Vox Machina" although that series was also riddled with woke garbage and in the end turned out to be disappointing
we need a series on ALL of it.
it would great if they make the "long night" as prequel for game of thrones. The night king and withe walker it more intresting and a good story to see
They did. It got cancelled after one episode.
Very interesting
Sparked a reinterest in my favorite show of all time. Thank you
we can only hope that george rr martin finishes the books before he dies
He won’t. He enjoys that power too much and his fortunes have killed his imagination.
John Snow beyond the wall hunting for the true night king gonna be awesome
It was Daenys the Dreamer that had the prophetic dream.
No it was not. It was Aegon's dream, this is explained many different times throughout the books, as well as House of the Dragon show. Daenys foresaw the Doom of Valyria.
@Darva2 no it’s not lol. The books have never stated or confirmed that Aegon was a dreamer. Half of this video is show lore only. The night king doesn’t even exist in the books. Also the children of the forest didn’t create the white walkers in the books either. No one knows where they actually originate from in the books
This sure helped me understand 😌
That summery was great!
The music almost made me want to drive into a tree😂
That music SUUUUUUCKS I’m trying to end this so bad
2:16 lets start at the begining
12:08 the council of 101 AC was between Viserys and Laenor Velaryon. Rhaenya was only in the show
Where did the forest people go
wiped out by Andals
The children made the first white walker
There can be an argument that Princess/Queen Daena Targaryen, daughter of Aegon III had a better claim to the throne than Viserys II (Aegon IV's father) and rumors that Viserys was a mummer's dragon. The real Viserys died during The Dance when Aegon III was able to get away on his young dragon and Viserys was left behind. The man who would be Viserys II is rumored to be an imposter groomed by the Rogare Family, a banking family from Tyrosh.
Daemon Blackfyre was as more Daena's son than Aegon IV's.
Awesome video!
The doom of Valeryrea is synonymous with the fall of Rome. George just took European history and changed some details and added real dragons.
Star Wars is a medieval tale in a space setting. Harry Potter is Star Wars in a school setting.
What exactly is she referencing with A.C. and B.C. ??
@BonsaiBuckeye1before conquest and after conquest...
@B@BonsaiBuckeye1fore aegons conquest. After aegons conquest.
So who's is night king in Rome ?
Wow 😳 Game of thrones is deeper than I thought I enjoyed this video and I now understand the concept the writer was truly a genius
The Dance of dragons and the spring sickness led to the GOT we know
Great job explaining everything,I can finally understand the full story. 💯
@9:30 you said “that’s not coincidence…that’s George RR Martin.” I would argue it’s not GRRM…HBO. GRRM hasn’t weighed in on it yet. If the delayed book would hurry up already! But your comment suggests he came up with Arya killing the night king. But I don’t think Martin has made that claim yet. 🤷🏽♂️
That was really awesome
18:28 kinda misleading the way presented (understandable given it's the same year) but during the current season of 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms', DaeronII is still King... not Aerys I. The spring sickness and the death of Daeron II and his grandsons happens the same year but AFTER the tourney at Ashford Meadow and where 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' picks up.
Its AI
Awesome..❤️🙌🙌
I watched 34 mins of this video and learned nothing new 😭😭😭
Thats because you're a lore junky 😅
But what if you were born a TERGARYENS. ruclips.net/video/iDExEIGjvFQ/video.html
This is by far the best GOT video I’ve ever watched, how informative is this! Awesome 👏 well done 👍
So... Prince that was promised adjacent? And "Prince" depending on your interpretation of the original Valryian. Sigh.
It doesn’t make sense that Arya would be the one to kill the Night King. It should have been Jon. The show got the lore wrong
The prince and his song of Ice and Fire united them all to serve Aegon's prophecy. Jon himself being Ice and Fire added further layers. This was his role. The role of a prince who was promised.
Night king believed himself to be invincible only to be killed by a young women a third his size. Sweet. Industrious as she is, she must have really believed what Melisandre told her in earlier seasons about killing men with brown, green, blue eyes.
Arya was a perfect candidate to kill Night King because she took a semester abroad in Braavos as a faceless.
Plus, Jon himself had a long night anyway. After fighting walkers, flying and fighting dragons killing The Night King would have looked silly.
There is no lore.
She's talking like this is all real. Bless.
19:39 The SECOND Blackfyre Rebellion is in 212AC NOT 112AC. This is huge error and confused me. 🤔
Get over it Nerd 🤓
This was great.
So, that little maisey girl killed the creepy cold zombie thing... Cool 😎
you forgot to mentioned who created the white walkers and where they came from
AI slop
Amazing Summary
What of the children of the forest?
extinct during the Andal invasion
You skipped how the Night King was created.
The adapted Tapisserie de Bayeux animations are amazing 😂
Arya was not supposed to kill the Whight King. That was just poor writing towards the end.
Who should have killed him?
The only good moment in the ending to be honest 😂 anything else was pure shit but this moment and the end of her journey was epic.
……What do we say to the death? 😊
@RoJa876John or Daenerys. Atleast the promised prince/princess.
@TropicvalueNot today 😊
I think Theon should have killed the night king, even if he died
