  • The longest running feud in the history of Westeros plays a significant role in the Dance of the Dragons / House of the Dragon as well as in A Song of Ice and Fire. We’ll look at how this endless cycle of violence started vs. how it’s going, some guesses at the future and everything in between.

    Not sure if this was intentional but doing Bracken v Blackwood a week after Drake v Kendrick blew up is some genius timing

    Hoster Blackwood's comment that the Bracken's were horse breeders makes me think I know how all this started. A stallion or a mare from either side gets loose and finds it way to the other stables, stuff happens, the runaway horse is returned BUT the question who gets the offspring leads to one side stealing it followed the other doing it back and forth until blood is drawn and well 4000 years later, the quarrel continues...

    No sir… I’m not a Blackwood. Nope… not a Bracken either. Look, I’m Just a Man… I’m Justman.

    Imagine if we got the Long Night prequel show and it turned out the Brackens sided with the Others against the Blackwoods and the children of the forest. Bloodraven becoming the three eyed crow and manipulating events for the prophecy was solely to get back at the Brackens

    I would really like to see this feud put to bed during this “upcoming long night “ and the two family’s become allied for good. That would be cool af.

    I do wonder if the Brackens v Blackwoods is a bit like the Roundheads v Cavaliers (English Civil War 1642-49). To (mis)quote "1066 and all that" the Roundheads were "Wretched but Wright" while the Cavaliers were "Wromantic but Wrong". The Blackwoods are often seen as the "bad (or at least, worse) guys" for probably killing the Brackens' Heart Tree, but what if humanity needs to move past rule by Weirwood Overminds and so poisoning the Weirwoods is exactly the right thing to do?

      You've got Blackwood and Bracken switched but I think you've got a point

    How did we never get a Blackwood v. Bracken Trial by Seven or Trial by Combat in the histories? Most of the Southerners love the Seven. If the Targaryens can take part, I don't see why the Blackwoods wouldn't get their hands dirty as well.

      That's a great call! Perhaps there have been some (they wouldn't have been recent) back when the Andals were newer to Westeros.

      ​@@HistoryofWesteros Right? haha Of the countless conflicts, I just can't imagine an intermediary never suggesting this.
