Chaos in Westeros: Every TWOW Plotline
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 тра 2024
- This video covers every Westeros plotline I think will be featured in The Winds of Winter. I analyze and theorize about situations like Jaime Lannister & Brienne with Lady Stoneheart; Aegon VI Targaryen / Young Griff's conquest of Westeros; Euron Greyjoy's blood magic near Oldtown; what Leyton Hightower is up to in the High Tower, as well as Sam Tarly, Alleras, and Jaqen H'ghar in the Citadel; how Sansa Stark will progress in the Vale with Littlefinger; what the real Dorne storyline is looking like; and a lot more. The ASOIAF books are far more complex than the HBO fan-fic, and I know GRRM is hard at work on completing them up in his New Mexican fortress (I am delusional).

My favorite part of asoiaf was when crusader chris kicked in the gates of Maegor’s holdfast and said “its crusading time” and crusaded all over the place
My favourite was horus winning the warhammer
@@Scorpionwincheater88 when the Master Chief says “its chiefing time” before smoking all my weed😔
Just the prophet Morbius Möbius’d.
Euron getting eaten by the kraken would be perfect irony.
👏🏼Varys 👏🏼 Is 👏🏼 Living 👏🏼 Inside 👏🏼 The 👏🏼 Walls!!! 👏🏼
And this us without taking into account all the new characters and storylines George will inevitably add
Jaquen has blundered. He should have chosen the Thief class instead of Assassin. Then he could have started the run with Master Key instead of doing the ENTIRE Citadel side quest
Lovely reference 😂
@@DeCode343 🔥🗝🔪glad you see it
@@ThommyofThennHe means to turn the assasin perks to his advantage.
The assasin perks?
What perks?
He cant cheat his way through quests,he has no sneak increase,no speed boost
Yet...
I really think the valonqar is Tyrion, I think it's the last step to make it truly a self-fulfilling prophecy. She assumed it was Tyrion so she makes him the valonqar, she chooses him, she hurt him and those whom he loved, slighted him and diminished him everytime she got an opportunity. And I think it's nice that once her paranoia is right.
jaime pushing tommen
damn his king'sslayer skill is high
I just realized that Cersei cannot be killed if she gets a tan ('pale white neck')
Wildfire can give her quite the tan.
@@UA-camChannel-rg2sb in which case she can't die, which is quite a trick
You've found the prophecy loop hole
Jewish moment
anyone else heavily hyper-fixtate on asoiaf? i watch almost every asoiaf-related video i see on youtube.
i love this story, and community! i hope i get to read winds one day.
I also do this and it annoys the hell out of me. Its like an abusive relationship
I love ASOIAF --> I look at TWOW predictions --> I realise its been 13 years --> I get angry ---> I don't want to read anymore until TWOW --> I watch an ASOIAF video ---> repeat
Yes but Georgie won’t give me WINDS GODDAMNIT GIVE ME WINDS GEORGE
Gotta do something to pass the time while we wait for WoW so I don't blame you
Even when you get really salty and decide to read another fantasy book series, you unfortunately realize that there is no book series out there on par with ASOIAF......
@@timangelis8999 after spending hours researching and asking other readers what series they recommend, I can confirm it's really hard finding something else. I really liked The First Law books and Name of the Wind but the large majority of other fantasy works simply are not on the level or anywhere near the level of ASOIAF. So there ARE some great options out there and if you approach with an open mind, they are thourougly enjoyable and worth reading. It's really hard to not compare everything to ASOIAF but it's worth it for your own good
i think this video really highlights how ADWD/AFFC ended right before the climax of everyone's stories. all the characters end weeks or even days removed from the endpoint of their book arcs. Jaime and Brienne going to lady stoneheart. Cersei right before her trial. Aegon about to take storms end. and all the sand snakes on their way to finally actively enter the conflict. This is true in the north, too, with all character converging on the battle of ice that is then.. resolved offscreen? if you believe anything that letter says, that is. the only ones that DO end at their logical points are the Meereen and Castle Black plots, which are also the ones with the most chapters dedicated to them.
The structure of TWOW is going to be very weird. the first 25% of the book is gonna be the climax (or should i say climaxes) from the previous narrative, and then its gonna have to.. start all over in the middle of the book? and build up to its own climaxes at the end?George has written himself into a big hole here, not only narratively but structurally, and i think this is a big part of why hes having so much trouble with the next book.
That and the fact Dany has completely escaped his gardening techniques. Her prophecys alone (you have to go east to go west, the Asshai stuff) could probably keep her busy for more than the next 2 books.
Not to mention the Mereen plot still has to unravel with at least 5 big characters converging. The scrapped 5 year time skip probably helped to make the westeros plot more fluent, but might have really hurt the Essos plot.
I wanna see all of Eurons pomp and circumstance lead to nothing. I just want to see him standing there waiting for an army of magic fish monsters to kill his enemies and nothing happens.
Or just the one, who yanks him off the deck with no ceremony at all and almost no ripple.
It'd be funny if nothing happens to the point where some of his Ironborn get angry and kill Euron.
Best yap of the decade
I’ve yapped too close to the sun on this one. But wait and see how high my yappage can go during HotD season 2 🫡
Oh, and I liked your prediction of Sweet Robin. I have seen a lot of ambivilance if not hostility towards him. At the very least, most fans seem convinced he will die from poison or his "ill health," accelerated by whatever means. I don't recall hearing anyone suggest he will live but your reasoning is definitely valid here. Grrm does allow an 'underdog' character to live on occasion and I can't say I would prefer Robin be spared to any of the other side characters currently in mortal peril, but I don't wish him dead. Yeah he is a brat but look at the psychological and pharmacological attacks he has suffered, and as a child lacking any real parental love or guidance at that. I appeeciate that
I have a feeling the valenquor is gonna be whatever is the remains of tommen after Cersei goes pet semantary and gives tommen body to qyburn.
the faceless men being inspired to kill danys dragons makes little sense, given that she's violently anti slavery. the euron thing however does make sense
About Sam's story, you seem to be forgetting that he also has a weapon of mass destruction on his person. Sam the Euron-Slayer, anyone?
That'd be epic lol. HBO would do it
That's a weird way to think about the Fat Pink Mast
I've thought of something similar these past few weeks. Sam is becoming more and more like Sam the Slayer. I think it's building up to him killing something that's a big deal again. Only I think he will kill Jaqen, not Euron. Euron I think will bring down the wall and then get killed by Daenerys. He'll at least take control of one of her dragons, or kill it or both.
Every time I think about what's happening in Westeros and Essos and where this story could be heading, I understand TWOW's delay.
It must be difficult to juggle all the POVs, move the story along, and pay off all the previous setup and foreshadowing.
Sometimes I think that two books are not enough to complete the story.
Great video. Waiting for Dany's future analysis.
Honest to goodness I hope GRRM is playing us and has already finished Winds and is working on another one.
Has it been 13 years? I don't even know, but give a man that much time to perfect what he's clearly passionate about and he would have finished something.
Its been THIRTEEN YEARS!!!!
@@MrMustache-yn4zm I just read that in Daemon’s voice
I think two books could be enough, assuming that both books will be massive in size even compared to ASOS. I wish Feast and Dance were a single book for that reason
@@mocha5742 You could have easily put at least 4 different characters or 10 chapters from adwd to affc and we could have had the battle of ice and the battle of fire, imagine how good that would be
I always look forward to your uploads. You never disappoint! Great video.
Thanks for watching !
This is great. I completely missed that part about the trial outcome already being known!
The part where I burst out laughing though was your delivery of "he's twelve". Poor Ed. 😂
A girl has no name because I’m here for Sam’s storyline.
Lets go Chris!! Your video on the north was so good, can't believe theres a part two. I hope this gets the attention it deserves
THATS WHY HES THE FUCKING GOAT! Just started the video and it goes hard!
Omg 😳... This is one of the brilliantest videos essays about asoiaf I saw in a while 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Bravo!!!
“Lancel is no march for Gregor Clegane”
Even if Lancel was immortal, he’d still lose to Gregor
And a Dany vid in the future?? The goat
that's probably the video I've been waiting the most for a content creator to make hahaha great stuff man
Gods bless you super fans who do all the hard work for us 😂 stringing all these tiny details together
Fantastic video bro, so much quality and care put into production. Love how you explain multiple possible plot lines as well.
Excellent video I look forward to your vids throughout the year Chris 👍
This videos are so much fun. Looking foward to the third one.
Your videos are always worth waiting for.
Love to see a second video like this. Thanks for the upload!
Thank you for watching
Thank you for doing this🙏
Poor Ralf, “last and certainly least” Stonehouse
This is beautifully crafted. Subscribed!
I love these stories are so deep and entwined. The mind he has to encompass all of this😅
I think faegon will march on king's landing there's no time to waste by adding half a dozen additional povs to a tertiary region like the reach. Kevan's advice to Cersei is potentially a clue and obviously the sort of thing that will occur to jon connington given his tywin obsession will be drawing tarly to their side against mace.
He is name aegon not faegon
I think he means to say that Aegon is not truly Aegon but a fake Targaryen thus making him f(ake)aegon😊 @@user-id7nk2yz9q
One of the best ASOIAF videos ever. High info-density.
(And unlike too many other ASOIAF UA-camrs, you don't make the video about you in any way-Preston, Lml, etc.)
damn i never noticed ToT
Great video as always bro
Appreciate it thank you
Puttin in thaf work! Great content!
I just discovered your channel. AMAZING WORK!!!
I've only recently discovered you channel but I love your videos, especially the targaryen kings series. Wish you all the best and look forward to future videos.
Hbo fan-fic. That's amazing. You and me can agree on something.
U deserve so much more subs
Crusader Chris coming in clutch. Great as always!
banger. love your longer styled videos
Your like the bob ross of detailing Dorne
i was waiting for this
YOUNG GRIFF!!!!!
Keep your bastard away from my throne
@Maegorthecrueltargaryen I'm sorry your Muscular Majesty but I can never do that.
@@aegorbittersteel2154 fine the black dread needed feeding anyway
@Maegorthecrueltargaryen even in death I will never back down.
I can’t wait for the Aegon IV video! This shall tide me over
you’re the goat bro
What a good way to start my week ☕️
In my opinion, Lady Stoneheart will feel a bit pointless if she doesn't get to meet one of her children, Jon or at the very least Edmure before dying again, so I am more inclined to Jaime rolling a 20 in persuasion or deception and convincing her to let him do something else for both of them surviving the encounter. Or Thoros might just sacrifice himself for Jaime, Brianne, Podrick and Ser Hyle Hunt's escape.
Also, I believe on Obara's betrayal, but Areo is the only POV on Dorne, but George only kills POV characters that aren't prologue or epilogue when another POV is watching (Sansa and Cersei watched Ned's death, Areo killed and Arianne watched Arys' death, Barristan watched Quentyn's death) or when the POV will get ressurrected (Cat and Jon Snow). Areo Hotah only dies in the confrontation if GRRM adds Obara, Ser Balon or Darkstar as POVs, if some other POV gets all the way to Last Hermitage or if Areo gets ressurrected.
Crown is also an anatomical name for the top of the head. All 3 of Cersei's children had golden crowns from the beginning - golden Lannister hair. Thus Myrcella needs not be Queen for that part to work.
Sweet video. Seems like it took forever to put together. I appreciate your research.
Good video, man.
This vid was insanely good
tolles video ich liebe dein content weiter so :)
All hail King Aegon, Sixth of his name, King of the Rhoynar, Andals, and First men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, and Protector of the Realm
Faegon*
Good detailed video
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it
1:26 He's in the walls... HE"S IN THE GODDAMN WALLS!!!
Looking forward to seeing more of ser barristan the based and his pov chapters
Great theory about Brienne and Jaime’s storyline’s, solid content right here
Have you considered that after Tommens death the throne passes to Myrcella? If that happens Doran Martell has all the cards, he has her as has hostage and shes betrothed to Trystane, Dornes support to Aegon is far from secure, especially if it revealed hes a Blackfyre. Plus Aegon is not going to marry anybody from Westeros.
You think Aegon won't marry and will hold out for Dany?
@@MrFredstt Yes, as Aegon knows that Targaryens kept their bloodline pure by procreating with one another, he wouldn't want his kin to be "bastards", Dany is his only chance at continuing the bloodline.....assuming he even is a Targaryen and not actually a Blackfyre.
Theoretically, he could seek out one of Robert's remaining female Bastards who would technically be part Targaryen but who would even be able to tell him about it?
@@MrFredstt His legitimacy is doubted across the realm. Marrying a confirmed Targaryen with Dragons eliminates all those doubts and would give dragons to his cause.
Aegon ain't gonna marry Daenerys, he's gonna marry Arianne. In fact, Daenerys will kill King Aegon when she goes to Westeros to take the Iron Throne.
@@abrilgomez9550 He wont marry her, I agree. But he will try to marry her and hold off on any other suitors because of that.
You're insane for this cuh
Love your videos can you make a video comparing each kingdom strength
Oh this is great.
34:31 I always thought his sigil was a mockingbird
Sandor has proven himself more than a match for Ser Gregor.
Yesss that was fast
I love when I find a good asoiaf fan page that actually tackles the tuff theories and isn’t just rambling on about what we already. Shoutout to you my man , keep em coming !!
58:43 this transition was cold af, nice
I want to see Leyton Hightower the most.
Would be cool to see what he and his daughter have been planning all this time
Ya know, if Young Griff's mother is a Blackfyre, then technically he himself isn't a Blackfyre then.
I say this since by most Westerosi and some Essosi customs, the family mame/House inheritance goes through the male line.
If he allies with Dany and accepts he's not really Rhaegar's son, then, they could decide he'll be the start of a new Valyrian noble house.
Great video. 30 minutes in so far. Thoughts on Aegon getting killed before Daenerys shows up (possibly whilst fighting Euron throughout The Reach) as per the non-subtle foreshadowing in his Cyvasse game with Tyrion in ADWD?
“Your dragon is too far away to save you. I lied, trust no one and keep your dragon close.”
I saw this video and first thought was “hell ya “ 🤣🤣🤣 also, I subscribe this guy called Preston who loves GOT and hes a doing fan fic version of winds of winter coz he got tired of waiting for goerge, so when you mentioned where some characters are I was like “ wait aren’t they dead already?” Then I realized I was thinking of the fanfic, not the actual winds of winter 🤣😭
06:02, he's still doing it for love 😂
What you said about Euron's chances, I'm too positive to say: he has no chance of even seeing the iron seat
ngl, I think the first quarter of the aegon chapters is going to be flooded marriage requests and how he navigates the proposals without angering anyone. This will be how grrm shows that aegon does have a certain skill to rally love from the common people. Maybe he’s a little dumb at war, but he may just prance his way up the social ladder to truly become the paper dragon (can’t remember the specific word that was used) Danny dreamed of
Imagine if valonqar is an essosi doctor called doctor Valon Qar who ends up killing Cersei because he bleeds her too much during the bleeding process
considering Euron is likely a potential green seeer rejected by Bloodraven i thought it would be interesting if it turns out he can use the Hightower(base) as a giant glass candle in order to warg all men within the reach. this would be his apotheosis, instead of becoming the woods and trees as we experience with Varymyrs death he becomes humanity. along with claiming Viserion through victarion blowing the dragonhorn.
"For the last time, A Song of Ice and fire has NO. SET. SCHEDULE."
Fuck when did he turn into Linkara?
Many fans suspect that Sam will put all his archery training to good use and, like the huntsman on the Tarley sigil, use a bow and arrow to slay Euron. With all the rhetoric and imagery around Euron and his eye(s), it’s likely that Sam will put an arrow through one of Euron’s eyes
Ngl I love the Theory that cerrsi Dies in Child Birth but I’d also love for it to be Tyrion or Jamie
One of my theories that could play could be. that when cerci uses the wildfire to blow up kl and Jamie goes to stop her he will succeeded in killing her will be too late to stop the wildfire. Completing Jamie’s failed hero’s ark. And going back to that faithful night in kings landing.
RIP Ralph Stonehouse, you will be missed 🕊

1:09:16 nobody still watching!
I'm MOST interested in the King's Landing plotlines. I'm rooting for my Good Queen Margaery, praying that the Wildfire underneath the city is finally detonated(they've been green balled for far too long) and hopefully if the Queen Mother is the one to set it off, I'll be delighted at the green flames wrapping their hands about her neck 🙏🏾
I missed it in the books where Tyene Sand studied at the Citadel. I was under the impression that she learned poisons from her father who studied at the Citadel?
I jumped to that conclusion and incorrectly worded it as if it’s a fact, not a possibility. So that was a mistake on my part. Thank you for catching that.
Well there is gonna be a second dance of dragons coming
I don't think Arianne will offer fAegon herself as a marriage pact, I think she'll offer Myrcella.
The only way that fAegon can win the thrown is if Tommen is dead. That would leave Myrcella as queen.
fAegon marrying Arianne would win him Dorne, but marrying Myrcella would get him the whole kingdom. What better way to mend the wound of the war than by the Targ heir marrying the Baratheon heir.
It would also fit Arianne's story more. She's all about getting Dorne for herself, and she didn't seem to think much of the idea of the marriage pact where she would've married Viserys and become queen.
The Dornish still have Mycella, and there's even a theory that it's a fake Mycella being sent to King's Landing, so it's not that hard for them to offer her.
I think after hearing about Quentyn's demise, Doran will definitely pick Aegon to support.
i think that aegon (young griff) would kill cersei lannister since as said in the vid maggie the frog said THE "valonqar" aegon was the second child of rhagar targaryen and ellia martel so he is the YOUNGER brother of Rhaenys so him killing her cound also be possible but I do like the theory of tryion killing her
You think…. LANCEL is going to be the champion? Frail, almost died, decrepit, white-hair LANCEL? Is the faith’s best choice for a champion? Cmon.
Yeah that’s the point. The Faith doesn’t really want to win Cersei’s trial; they only want to prove they have the power to put the Queens on trial. So Lancel will be chosen and he’ll die.
@@CrusaderChris Naw, for all that The Hound has a better chance at being picked then Lancel, it also wouldn't make any sense as that would put them at risk of Cersei enacting revenge against them just for.....what? Showing off power? They'll all get killed by The Undead Mountain for their troubles.
I disagree on some of your ideas, but fantastic video man.
1:09:28 I’m still watching an hour into the video 😂
I hadnt heard the theory that stoneheart could be the one to resurrect Jon. I like that a lot more than it being Mel
Wake up babe, Crusader Chris made another ASOIAF video
F-WORD YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
