34:49 YES! I rarely see people talking about the Shadow Blade when it comes to the Magical Blades of ASOIAF, that thing is super lethal since it cut through Renly’s incredibly potent gorget like it was paper! Which means that Magical Ice, Fire, Light and Shadow Blades are actual real tangible objects in the world of ASOIAF (which is sick AF)
Every time a new video comes out I make a point of ‘liking’ and commenting it to help fuel the algorithm. Love the content! It keeps my engaged with ASOIAF even though we haven’t had any new books for over a decade.
YES. I pray to Hendrix that someone does this for my book's magic some day... For being such a "low magic" series, Song of Ice and Fire has such compelling magic systems.
Aragorn's ghost army are called"the dead" and "the men of the mountain" in the books. They were the deserters when the Numenorian exiles fought Sauron around 3000 years before the events of LOTR. In the books they also dont win the battle of the Pellinor by themselves like the movie. They run off the Corsairs of Umbar who are attacking southern Gondor, freeing up troops and ships for Aragorn to lead to Minas Tirith.
I’ve never actually watched a content promoter’s add for a sponsor without fast forwarding before! I love Rhaegar so much I watched it all! Congratulations! You are entertaining even when advertising!
I’ve got to give you credit! I usually will not watch or pay attention when people do there spill on some sponsored item. But you my friend have made it entertaining as well👏🏻!!!!
I know it is a little off-topic, but a thought has occured and formed in my head about “The thing that comes in the night” at the Night Fort: What if this “thing” is actually Coldhands or a Coldhands-like being, who comes to take sacrificed children north of the Wall? But he can’t go south of the Wall, so a Night Watch member (in our instance Samwell Tarly with Bran and his companions) has to bring the child/children through the Night Gate to “Coldhands”, and then “Coldhands” brings the children to somewhere else to be used as some form of sacrifice?
I went back to the vet first video on the channel for overly analytical work like this! David "LML" Lightbringer adds yet another W to his name 🙇🏾♀️🙌🏾
A few things...When I saw the thumbnail, I thought this was a snip of the live. 🤦♀️ After watching, I love the detailed breakdown you did about how the different forms of magic and the users of it overlap. Absolutely loved this video! Side note: Dave that shirt, the color looks sooo good on you and Rhaegar looks like a sorcerer rock star! 🤩 💛 Been wanting a VPN for while! Great sponsor!
There is definitely Lovecraftian link between the different magic systems - dragon dreams, green dreams, Quaithe's dream infiltration, and the Drowned God. Cthulhu, who is our Drowned God parallel, and his son Zoth-Ommog both influence and communicate to their cult followers through psychic links, dream infiltration, and dream manipulation, specifically being the most common tactics (Call of Cthulhu, The Thing in the Museum) Nyaralohotep (Chaos God summoned by the black stone) also reaches out to Randolph Carter at Kadath by infiltrating his lucid dreams (Dream-Quest)
I know you must have mentioned the influence of works like "The Golden Bough" and/or "The White Goddess" in one of your other videos (probably when you talk about Jon Snow Corn King), but it seems to me that George has uses the ideas from them as a model for how magic, mythology, and religion relate to the development of cultures in the world of his books. I think that's one of the reasons why his low-magic system feels so grounded and compelling. It's also interesting to notice how Robert Graves was the author for both "I, Claudius" as well as "The White Goddess" since we already know George mentioned "I, Claudius" as an influence.
Here to comment since you begged for it 😂😂😂. Also got thru 3 hours of the live and then it disappeared hope you bring it back. That was your best one and you were so excited for it. Love the energy you Tim bring.
51:21 you said the jewels are used for glamour magic, is it possible that the coins do that instead? they're made of metal and they seem to be the staple of the faceless men?
David you really should write a story or setting of your own. You would succeed greatly. I have seen your long videos on The Empire of the Dawn, it felt like reading an entire novel. Thankyou for your enthusiasm for this stuff.
I’m on board with the prediction of Euron’s mind being gobbled by the Weirwood net. I think that’s what the tentacle imagery is all about: Him pulling a Varamyr and getting stuck in the trees. I’m concerned this may even be his goal and the height of the damage he will do will end up being from within the net, either post-body death or from an in between state.
I don't think the others can be defeated in battle. They need to be communicated with and a truce ordered where they are allowed back into the weirwoods. I think there's a way to tell the story in a way where Jon is Night's King and he plays a helpful role in leading the white walkers back to their home to leave humans alone. Euron could be Azor Ahai and attempt to call down another meteor or something else really messed up. Azor Ahai is bad, Night's King is good would be an interesting twist
Great show!. Being that you've been doing this for so many years, I bet you've already thought of this, but I wonder if Asshai and the Wall serve as kind of entry points into these other-worldly realms. And then the Heart of Winter and Stygai serve as the actual Nexus points of that magic.
In Ancient Greece, if memory serves, the belief was all people died and there was a meh afterlife where your SHADE(not what we mean by spirit but close enough) would be and existed. Maybe the shadows, Shade of the Evening, are drawn upon from that old belief? Shade of the evening, a spirit from the dark (non life time but an existence post mortality) could be a source of word play. I'm probably reaching...
Edit: finishing last part of this lol. The relationship between the Others/Starks ....lets just say I'm hoping Bran has a few more timeywimey visions 26:26 maybe the Others are the spirits of ancient Starks who got desynced when Azor Ahai hacked their modem/HDD 34:19 I was discussing this the other day. The other person said they burn with literal flame, while I took it to mean the glass was glowing, i.e "aflame." If anyone can remember an exact quote in the books please let me know
David is the definition of a nerd. Goofy, corny, enthused, smart, & an artist. GRRM is a current day literary legend.
Thanks David! I put your vid’s on when I want to escape all the noise.
True Chaotic Good 😻
If GRRM doesn't finish the books though, he will become a modern literary urban-legend.
He is the definition of cool and confident, not a nerd.
@pyropulseIXXI He is cool, confident and a Nerd. You can be all those things at once.
The full chart took my breath away. It's absolutely majestic in its hopeless convolution.
praise dave for working so hard for us
One does not simply make a chart so comprehensive

This is the nerd shit I'm here for!!!!!!
@@CitizenPoe its good
I just clicked this video and this comment gets me excited
Big same. Love charts.
Dave is one of like 3 people who should be allowed to make ASOIAF content
Omg!!! This kind of stuff is why I come here! It’s a beautiful chart! Nerd out!!! It’s perfect!
Every time a new video comes out I make a point of ‘liking’ and commenting it to help fuel the algorithm. Love the content! It keeps my engaged with ASOIAF even though we haven’t had any new books for over a decade.
My idea is that all the magic is connected back to the black stone which is activated by the comet when it passes
For the love of god no one give this chart to Euron
This is so aggressively comprehensive❤
Excellent wording and accurate
@@ThommyofThennthis is def one of the ones you watch sober, and then again a few more times 😊
@@cloverazar5315Funny you say this. I watch in chunks typically. (Hope that doesn't hurt analytics) and here I am again finishing the final part
YES. I pray to Hendrix that someone does this for my book's magic some day...
For being such a "low magic" series, Song of Ice and Fire has such compelling magic systems.
praise Jimi

Slowly but surely am working my way through your massive back catalogue of content. Great way to pass days away.
was having a bit of a rough day getting engrossed in niche asoiaf magic lore was exactly what i needed thankyou for all your content
I’ve never actually watched a content promoter’s add for a sponsor without fast forwarding before! I love Rhaegar so much I watched it all! Congratulations! You are entertaining even when advertising!

"You know I much I've been missing my Valyrian soap operas" 😭
Love the videos david lightbringer 🤟 thanks for keeping me company with asoiaf ❤
I’ve got to give you credit! I usually will not watch or pay attention when people do there spill on some sponsored item. But you my friend have made it entertaining as well👏🏻!!!!
yeah the commercials are really just an excuse for me to do Rhaegar sketch comedy
Your creativity shines
@@DavidLightbringer and we're here for it!!
That chart is appropriately chaotic for you.
Get them likes up for the G.O.A.T!!!! You truly bless us with wisdom David, thanks a bunch

Yeah, I'm gonna need to praise Garth before taking on that chart.
This is the kind of video that makes me think sometimes that GRRM himself watches your videos to keep track of what the hell he is doing 😂❤
I went back to the vet first video on the channel for overly analytical work like this! David "LML" Lightbringer adds yet another W to his name 🙇🏾♀️🙌🏾
Love the magical chart! Also the ad was very funny. Good for Rhaegar for helping out so much!
I just found this channel and I am loving it! Any good recommendations for videos that discuss Lady Dustin?

yes and yes!
The ABSOLUTE PERFECT video to make pecan pies to! Thanks, LML!!!! 💜💜💜✨✨✨
The thumbnail should be you pointing at the full chart like Charlie in the Always Sunny meme
THERE IS NO JAQUEN SILYVA HE DOESNT EXIST

Praise Garth! David, your maps are a fresh way to show the web of magic in the series' Characters. Amazing! ❤
1:05:29 - I just heard "NecroNancy" 😂 a good nickname for Lady Stoneheart if you ask me
Great video... How are you not at 100 K followers yet? Let's spread the word!
Just started... This is already incredible!!!!
The stuff I love to listen while I draw fantasy stuff ❤❤❤ Thank you so much
your videos are amazing
Now that's a cool chart
I loved the arts used and even more so that you included the names of the artists. Amazing video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
always credit your artists!
@DavidLightbringer would you consider making an interactive version of this chart for us to play with?
I know what I'M American Thankful for this year!
Sweet Chart-ity!
Dave, I just love all the stuff you do! Thank you!
An exhausting overview. Great selection of art
Something else to be thankful for 🙏🏻 hope you had a good thanksgiving Dave and fellow myth heads! ❤
I'm hooked from go on this one :) great topic, great chart!
I appreciate this graph and analysis so much!
Love love love this video. Appreciate all the hard work you put into every video and stream!
watching this now after you recommended it on stream, I blame youtube for not pushing it to me sooner
Great video LML! Love this stuff and seeing the connections was a fun way of doing this.
A surprise stream yay! Thanks ❤
Here to comment since you begged for it 😂😂😂. Also got thru 3 hours of the live and then it disappeared hope you bring it back. That was your best one and you were so excited for it. Love the energy you Tim bring.
Easily the best UA-cam ad I've ever seen
“Digital mummery” is just excellent terminology 👌🏻
Love the idea that Rhaegar is basically your roommate and that he'd call you "Dave".
Give me all the charts!!! Finally
your work shows david, keep going!! we love it!!
It’s beautiful! Love this. Well done!
Dam, that’s a helluva chart
Fantastic video as always! Would love to see a discussion stream of this as well if that’s a future possibility
I did it a few weeks ago, it's called Magical Orders
51:21 you said the jewels are used for glamour magic, is it possible that the coins do that instead? they're made of metal and they seem to be the staple of the faceless men?
This is one of the sexiest charts I've seen. Def Top 15.
David you really should write a story or setting of your own. You would succeed greatly. I have seen your long videos on The Empire of the Dawn, it felt like reading an entire novel.
Thankyou for your enthusiasm for this stuff.
thank you so much,! and yeah it'll definitely happen :)
I loved this thanks David
Wewf perfect way to immediately begin my four day weekend let’s do this
Look at all the pretty colors!
Oooooo. Looking forward to this one!!!!
Epic presentation! Learn from the Maesters then apply outside the ivory tower. You're the Architect to GRRM's Gardener, kudos! 🔥

Stepping it up on the ads. Hell yeah babeh love it
Charts! Charts! Charts!
Thank you!
Fantastic video🎉 keep it up good sir.
How did I miss this shit!!
Whelp, happy surprise 🎉
I am here to have fun with charts
Petrified Kings of Winter! I'll be disappointed if that isn't a hing now... very fun idea.
Viewers: LML, give us a chart, please!!! 😇
LML: okaaaay, but next time, be careful what u wish 4 😈
On rewatch this video slaps so hard!!
I’m on board with the prediction of Euron’s mind being gobbled by the Weirwood net. I think that’s what the tentacle imagery is all about: Him pulling a Varamyr and getting stuck in the trees.

oh god
oh god oh god oh god
he's gonna be the virus in the net. like the original Azor Ahai
@@DavidLightbringer Yup
@@DavidLightbringer the Others body snatch Jon, while Euron snatches his mind.
Rhaegar has such a great VPN we can't even even FIND him!!!
EXACTLY, you got the hidden joke 😉
you are such a goof i love you!!total eclipse improv!!
Happy late thanksgiving. Sorry for my tardiness. I was in a food coma lol
Seven hells that chart gives me ptsd. 😂😂
Comentando antes de assistir pra te agradecer, 1h16 m de ordens mágicas!!!!!

Martin is a hippy who hates war and has said stuff in the past about fighting is easy if it's others
Great show!. Being that you've been doing this for so many years, I bet you've already thought of this, but I wonder if Asshai and the Wall serve as kind of entry points into these other-worldly realms. And then the Heart of Winter and Stygai serve as the actual Nexus points of that magic.
ahh I'm a sucker for Data layers like this!
John snows body will be the anthem for the next generation
Watched, mate. Love it 😉 😜
Anyone know what the name for this kind of chart is?
Praise be to Garth. We are spoiled with an hour.
Wow David!!!
This melted my brain
Where did the Driftwood Kings video go??? 😢
be back tomorrow morning
Thoros wielded a fiery sword during the Greyjoy rebellion. ned recalls it I believe, that Thoros of Myr was one of the first through the gates
Too bad Thoros can't recall the event lol
Keeps putting out hits lfg
In Ancient Greece, if memory serves, the belief was all people died and there was a meh afterlife where your SHADE(not what we mean by spirit but close enough) would be and existed. Maybe the shadows, Shade of the Evening, are drawn upon from that old belief? Shade of the evening, a spirit from the dark (non life time but an existence post mortality) could be a source of word play. I'm probably reaching...
no I mean that's what Beric and Stoneheart are, that type of shade exactly. That's why I say they have been shadowbound when they were resurrected
"Turn around ice eyes"
Edit: finishing last part of this lol. The relationship between the Others/Starks ....lets just say I'm hoping Bran has a few more timeywimey visions
26:26 maybe the Others are the spirits of ancient Starks who got desynced when Azor Ahai hacked their modem/HDD
34:19 I was discussing this the other day. The other person said they burn with literal flame, while I took it to mean the glass was glowing, i.e "aflame." If anyone can remember an exact quote in the books please let me know
Wow, Bonny Tyler? Great stream, though!
This chart is as simple and intuitive as your average military power point presentation. 😂😂
