i started reading fairly slow.
and by that i mean that i'd read a bit, then not read any of it for weeks, then finish a book, and then not read more for a month.

which is why my first read-through took several years just to get caught up to what was published at the time.

my second read-through right before the last books release took just a couple of months.


Also, they're making a tv-show, i think

hell if i know. if we're just talking medieval and later Europe, the majority probably were.

but there were nations that had an equivalent of nobles in Africa and the Middle East as well.

Anyone else find it a bit weird that when Euron was parading his captives through the streets of King's Landing (possibly Flea Bottom), that the poor people were throwing food at them?

Shouldn't food be a bit more coveted than that?

it was probably rotten food

They're playing the hearts and minds game atm. If they could prove that the Lannister army, the single largest army in the seven kingdoms, can be defeated by their army, then they can slowly persuade the Lords/Ladies of the seven kingdoms to pull their support to the Lannister claim to the throne and back Dany, without ever having to let a dragon loose on King's Landing or one of the seven kingdoms.

It's a very iffy hand to be dealt and an even trickier hand to play.


we can look to history to see how that works out.
it's exactly the kind of thing Hannibal did when invading Italy during the Second Punic War.
he figured that if he could beat the Roman armies (which he did gloriously several times) and besiege a few cities, he could get the Italians to pull their support to Rome.
and that just ended with him losing spectacularly at the end.

and she doesn't even have a Battle of Cannae on her side.

BUT....people blame him for the animals in the Animal Kingdom starving. Well, unless Scar decreed that animals couldn't bone, he would have no control over the availability of food.


in old Europe, (and probably any other place that used Kings) it was a standing story-telling trope in that the king and the world they ruled were connected. be it by the wrath/divine favor of god, or some nature link.

sometimes it could be something like, the king is sick, so the crops go bad, or foreign armies get the upper hand.
or the king is happy and well, so the food supply is growing well, and the lands enemies stay quiet.
things like earthquakes, droughts, famines and results of wars were often seen as part of the kings legitimacy.

that's where it stems from.

when it suddenly started to rain like hell, so i walked back to shore and stood under a tree for a sec, before running inside, when suddenly thunder struck in the water.

bloody hell, that was loud, there was basically no gap at all between the flash and the thunder.
i believe it was the same thunderstorm that then moved on to strike in the tents in the Bråvalla festival.
