My username is so obnoxiously long and there is absolutely nothing you can do about the matter So am I. I'm thinking the video had to be re-uploaded. I just posted the same comment I did yesterday. 😄
@@91YEHNAH Yeah, in 2016 at Balticon. It's semi-canon. Brienne remembers seeing Dunk's shield when she was little, and had hers repainted as such in Duskendale.
Wait how many Dunc and Egg books are there?? I thought I read them all but Duncan didn’t die :( also I am only 1 minute into this video, so...maybe I should stop?
Yeah, apart from the spin-off books, many want also a spin-off series involving Dunk and Egg... But Martin doesn't want to do it yet, as he wants to finish writting the stories first before adapting them to TV... So maybe 10 years from now we will see it XDD
In A Feast For Crows, Brienne, Brings up that she will her shield repainted.. and that she ran over fingers over the oak tree and shooting star. This is most likely referring to Duncan's Shield. I dont know that Hodor is NOT Ser Duncan's bloodline, but its definitely hinted that Brienne is.
I think that everything we've read in the books comes from the meeting of Dunk and Egg. The World of Ice and Fire reveals to us that Aegon V Targaryen met his wife, Lady Betha Blackwood, during his travels with Ser Duncan the Tall. So if Dunk and Egg had never met, probably the future king would had married another woman, and none of his descendants, Jaheaerys II and his wife-sister Shaera, Aerys II the Mad King and his sister-queen Rhaella, Rhaegar, Viserys, Daenerys and Jon Snow, would have ever come to the world. Neither the Baratheon brothers, whose paternal grandmother was the daughter of King Aegon V. Furthermore, that book reveals to us that the lady that he helped in the second story, Rohanne Webber, was the future lady of Casterly Rock and grandmother of lord Tywin and of his cousin and wife, lady Johanna Lannister. So, probably, even them, Tyrion, Jaime, Cersei (whoever is their father: Aerys or Tywin) and their children owe their existence to him. The same goes for the young Starks because, without Rhaegar and Aerys, their parents Ned and Catelyn would never have married.
Davide Ferrari Aegon V would never have become King. He was nicknamed Aegon the Unlikely for being the 4th son of the 4th son of the King. But whole branches of the Targaryen house were wiped out by a really bad disease outbreak, others took the Black, and of course one of his older brothers killed the other (during Duncan’s trial) so little Egg ended up king
CivilizationEx oh Patreon people get content like this? I was looking forward to more videos like this. I guess I'll have to show you my support so I can.
Prince Aerion wasn’t afraid of Dunk fighting in a trial by combat. Aerion knew that he didn’t actually have to fight Dunk himself and that one of his Kingsguard could act as his champion. However, he was always a madly overblown eccentric that just wanted to make things difficult and try to humiliate Dunk. Aerion thought that by changing it to a Trial of Seven, he could prove that Dunk had no actual friends that would stand with him and that Dunk would be a laughing stock before they took off his hand.
Yeah this is true. And I do agree. BUT, after the asswhooping Dunk put on him, probably also was also a bit nervous of facing him one on one. After all, Dunk is 7 freaking feet tall, and he already felt how strong he was. I have no doubt that Aerion wanted to make a spectacle out of it and humiliate Dunk before chopping his hand off, but it's also pretty obvious that Aerion was a punk and afraid to fight Dunk alone.
do you know where did he find the informations from the 7:44 until the end of the video? i mean, the book about Ser Duncan The Tall i read, didnt mention any of these. it stopped after Ser Duncan stopped the Blackfire rebellion before even started in whitewalls.
Like most GRRM "confirmations" his choice of wording is extremely ambiguous and further confirmation is 3rd party sources / Chinese whispers. I'd put this is the bin of probably, but may never get a confirmation.
I agree exactly with what me from 2 months ago said. This should be Atleast a 4 season series from the start of their adventures to their death at Harrenhaul.
A great video! I wish we'll get a film or TV series about Dunk and Egg. The characters and the stories are so compelling. By the way, Daeron, not Aerion, was Maekar's eldest son.
Daaaaaaaaamn this guy is a legend. And damn it this Cercei when she said that he can't be one of the king's guards what a slap in the face of his honor.
The mountain is the bull, Ser Duncan is the torero If you could kill the mountain using skill alone like oberyn, then i imagine defeating him using swordmanship and strength would be very easy.
Musa Altáriel Duncan relied on his strength a lot. He wasn’t that skilled with a sword during the time of the “knight of seven kingdoms” timeline. So I don’t think Duncan would stand much of a chance with the mountain since he had more skills than just brute strength.
Everything is great but for the fact that Aegon wasn't beloved, at least not by the nobility, and the tragedy of Summerhall was caused by his (Aegon's) obsession with hatching dragons to control his vassals with greater ease, but this is a video about Duncan not Aegon, love all your work btw
Angel F. Castillo Aegon wasn't loved by the nobility because Aegon was so generous to the poor. Also it is believed that the tragedy at Summerhall was due to the Maesters at the Citadel fearing a second coming of the dragons.
I loved Dunk and Egg's stories. Bitesized and wholesome but still with all the fantasy and political trappings of GRRM's work. Egg is just a hilarious character and the perfect foil for Ser Dunk, he's very witty and incredibly smart for his age. My favourite bits is the catchphrase "get him, he's right there!"
Honesty trying to remember exactly how Egg became king. I know how Aerion went out. Just trying to remember how the other sons went out. Duncan was a hero and deserves like at least a 20 episode miniseries
"A knight of the seven kingdoms" ends at whitewalls. Whn ser Duncan leaves for the Wall. Where can i read the later part of his life ?? Can someone tell
Marting hasn't write about that part yet as novels, but you can read that information in the world of ice and fire, and in the books of a song of ice and fire you can find refferences about him
Aegon The V was like the Bernie Sanders of westeros by trying to help out commoners while the nobles hated him and rejoiced when his policies died with him
Not that it matters on a 5+ year old video, but just a small error I saw, Prince Aerion isn’t the eldest of Maekar’s sons, but the second oldest. Daeron (the Drunken) was the eldest and original heir, much to Maekar’s disappointment
Aegon the 5th was now wholly loved during his reign. The common folk loved Aegon for sure. But a lot of nobles hated him due to the reforms Aegon put out that curbed the nobles' power.
Wait, where did you find the informations from 7:44 until the end of the video? i mean, in the book i only read about all the stuff you said from the begining of the video until 7:44.
It is from what we know about the next Dunk and Egg Book, entitled She Wolves of Winterfell. Then the rest is largely from the history book, World of Ice and Fire.
"Striking Aerion down.." has to be the most understated way of describing the beatdown Ser Duncan laid on his ass that day.
Been a while since I read the story but if I remember he knocked him spark out.
Dunk punched his face, causing him to fall to the ground. Aerion reaches for his dagger but Dunk stepped on his hand and kicked him in the chest.
@@17Watman I thought it was the face. Aerion says something about knocking one of his teeth loose with the kick after he has the guards holding Dunk down.

@@knotadoctor1455two trials of seven you think ?
@@niccolorichter1488 I don't think I was clear enough I didn't mean he was in both trials of seven but he was in and I guess won one of the two

But she wasn't too tall for...... uh puppets!
"Tanselle "La Giganta", la llamaban... Pero para mí no era demasiado alta."
Prequels HBO need to do: Dunk and Egg, Roberts Rebellion, Aegon's conquest and the origin of the faceless men
And don't forget Dance of the Dragons, but the budget will be wow for cgi.
Raphael Raditya How could I have forgotten about that!? That should've been #1. Lets not forget the Night's king/13th Lord Commander
i want The Rise of Karl Tanner
Two of those were already rejected by George R.R. Martin.
What about Benjen Stark in the lands of always winter. Or how the Bloodraven became the 3-eyed raven

Ser Duncan the Tall has one of THE BEST stories I have ever read.

However, he was always a madly overblown eccentric that just wanted to make things difficult and try to humiliate Dunk.

The Tall vs The Laughing Storm , imagine that .
It actually happens lol

do you know where did he find the informations from the 7:44 until the end of the video? i mean, the book about Ser Duncan The Tall i read, didnt mention any of these. it stopped after Ser Duncan stopped the Blackfire rebellion before even started in whitewalls.
Ser Duncan The Tall Im guess from A world of ice and fire. A book about the history of Westeros.
That fight is just one reason HBO should do this as a spin-off. The trial of seven would be awesome to see as well.
grrm has confirmed brienes lineage to ser duncan the tall. love your vis!
Like most GRRM "confirmations" his choice of wording is extremely ambiguous and further confirmation is 3rd party sources / Chinese whispers. I'd put this is the bin of probably, but may never get a confirmation.
Yeah, with the amount of vague confirmations GRRM has given, it's pretty much "semi-canon".
The Mystery Knight > The Hedge Knight > The Sworn Sword
All 3 are brilliant though
IMO the tales of Dunk and Egg are better than the main series
Horus the illustrated versions are pretty good too.
Jack Daniels I agree kind of. I don’t think they’d be that special if they weren’t canon to the main series.
You could make a whole season out of this.
A whole series more like.
Season 1: the tourney of ashford meadow
Season 2: Standfast vs Coldmoat
Season 3: butterwell frey wedding
I can see it happening.
Fresh beans That should all be season 1. This is all just a teaser for what Duncan has accomplished.
I agree exactly with what me from 2 months ago said. This should be Atleast a 4 season series from the start of their adventures to their death at Harrenhaul.
