    If people want a more in depth recount on each chapter or are looking to compare the text to the new HBO TV series 'House of the Dragon', we have just started making videos doing exactly that! ua-cam.com/video/KAXssLfm1CE/v-deo.html

      I've noticed some of the ASOIAF community have been some of the most selfish and rude to content creators I have came across on UA-cam. Especially black content creators in the space. Makes you wonder what kind of people are reading these books. It's sad really. If you don't have a fake British accent like some of these UA-camrs are doing or some other foreign accent they hate on you. This guy did a great job.

    I finished Fire and Blood a few months ago. One of the best books I've read but sheesh it's sad. I needed this recap before I start Hot D but I wish the show started with Aegon's invasion or a build up to it. I hate to see these dragons die. This music fits the sad theme of the Targaryen family.

  • @wrenchdodger
    @wrenchdodger 2 роки тому +11

    I appreciate all the effort you all put into making this video. But I also have to agree with the people that have complaints, the awkward pauses are super immersion-breaking, had to skip to the HOTD part. And the whole point is to pull the viewer into the story you are narrating so it is definitely very jarring.
    Maybe read from the book and try to edit the text/visual afterwards? I’m sure you’ve already worked on this but since this video will get a lot views after HOTD ends and people want answers maybe it’s worth reconsidering re-uploading this? Especially since you really have a good voice for narrating.
    Either way, thanks for the work I do appreciate it.

    My theory is that Melisandre is actually Elissa Farman... If you know her story, she ran from Westeros and stole 3 dragon eggs and was never seen again.. except Corlys Velaryon said that her ship was last seen going to Ashai, the shadowland...
    My theory is that MELISANDRE (ELISSA+ANDREW=ELISSANDREW) went to Ashai and learned the dark magic of shadows , that's why she can give birth to shadows (Stannis). After that, she went from Ashai to Essos and that's how Daenarys eggs were in Essos, those 3 dragon eggs are the dragon eggs that Elissa stole in the first place, then Elissa(Melisandre) gave herself to R'lhor and became a red priest.
    That's my theory, when she had to make a new name for her she mixed Elissa and Andrew and got Melisandre.
    What do you think? Trust me, search the story of Ashai, Elissa and Melisandre

    So they were all crazy, Aenys, Maegor, Jahaerys, Aegon, Viserys, his children. I've heard that Maekar was a good king because Jahaerys clearly wasn't, peace is important but his treatment of his daughters is wild, atleast Maegor was progressive enough to name a girl his heir, though he was cruel to many people. It's no surprise that the mad king and his second son were completely crazy. And you're right, even before I watched this videos I've always felt that Jahaerys wasn't a great king, he only punished those who were weaker although he did do a lot of good things too but none that might inconvenience him too much, hence he chose Viserys, who was similar only a lot weaker. It was implied by Viserys that Otto Hightower killed his father, please make a video on that, your videos are great.
