The Shadow-by-Asshai

Daenerys is told more than once that “to touch the light, you must pass beneath the shadow”. What is the shadow? We break down what the phrase means for Dany, and as a worldbuilding element associated with Asshai-by-the-Shadow. Let’s shed some light on the Shadowlands. We’ve got masks, magic, Mirri Maz Duur, Marwyn, and more. Rize: https://rize.io/?via=WESTEROS & code WESTEROS3 for 25% off payments within the first 3 months!

The Real Life Red Wedding: The Black Dinner of Scotland

Scotland’s late medieval period was a Game of Thrones-like environment with powerful families fighting and scheming for power. A particularly notorious event - The Black Dinner - inspired GRRM to write the Red Wedding. We’ll examine all the gory details, politics, battles and intrigues plus other parallels beyond Stark, Frey and Lannister to characters like Bittersteel, Blackfish, Aenys Blackfyre and Unwin Peake.

The Abduction of Lyanna Stark

What happened with Lyanna and Rhaegar before the Tower of Joy? Why did he kidnap her… or why did she elope with him, if that was the case? Did he make her his second bride? If so, why? And why would she agree to that… or was it her idea? We tackle a core ASOIAF mystery with this one!

GRRM vs. The Wars of the Roses

Thanks to Shakespeare, a cadre of historians, television shows and the compelling nature of the actual events that transpired, the era of the Wars of the Roses is one of the most famous periods in all of western history. Primarily a struggle between houses York and Lancaster, GRRM took inspiration for his houses Stark and Lannister… and so much more. This episode is a buffet of historical parallels for ASOIAF, the Dance of the Dragons and more.
