A Dance with Dragons - Chapter 29 - Davos IV

From George RR Martin's "A Storm of Swords."

I am in no sense a professional reader, voice actor, or what have you. I began this audiobook project some years ago when some friends of mine jokingly said they'd read A Song of Ice and Fire (my favorite fantasy series) if I personally recorded the whole series in audiobook form and sent it to them. Having now made my way almost through the first two books in the series, I decided to join the small community of people who post their own amateur audibook readings to youtube, and share my efforts.
I have no intention of profiting off of the work that is copyrighted to George RR Martin. This upload is a tribute to a series I deeply love, and I strongly encourage you to purchase these books. You won't regret it.
Also I should give full credit to my cat, Claudio, for the frequent background meows and purring sounds you hear throughout.

Wow, what an incredible chapter. "The North remembers" will never fail to give chills. And what a great reading, David! The character and emotion came through so well, Manderly's speech was an experience.

[@patravanhorn7271]

[some more thoughts about this chapter because it’s still on my mind:] it’s awesome how all of your more wild or comical character accent choices (reeds, tyrells, brienne) started off as jarring to me, but now they seem so natural and fitting. especially noticed this with Manderly in this chapter. his voice was very distinct and at first very much fit his reputation as a blustering old lord “too fat to ride a horse.” but when he revealed his true intentions and northern pride, you really let it come through in his voice. he owned his nature and used it to his advantage, and you really showed that with audio! basically, over these books i’ve definitely learned to trust your creative decisions lol.

[@oz4087]

One of my favorite chapters, not just because of Manderly but all the hints at just how terribly savage northmen can be to those who wrong them. I realy like the northmen in general, they have that general apearance of the "savage barbarian". It reminds me of Space Wolves from Warhammer 40k they project an image of the barbaric savages to throw of theyr enemies and allies. The dornishmen do the same thing. Sometimes your reputation can defeat an enemy before your blade does.

[@DavidReadsASoIaF]

I LOVE how the North is depicted in this book in particular. It's so gothic! And I think there's a pretty hefty "seasoning" of truth within that self-consciously projected affect or barbarism. One of my favorite chapters in the entire series is Reek III in part because his conversation with Roose touches on those themes. It's also why I was absolutely appalled when the show had Sansa, who fed a f*cking prisoner of war to ravenous hounds, crowned Queen of the North and we were all supposed to be glad that this backward, brutal, barbaric kingdom where lords still regularly practice the Droit de Seigneure got its independence.

[@oz4087]

@@DavidReadsASoIaF yeah its also why i think when we see Skagos it might apear very difrent than the tales of bloodthirsty canibals. Could be they are a society of wargs, Canibalism does seem to give power to wargs so maybe skagosi use ritualistic canibalism to grow theyr warg powers. Now im kinda imagining rickon coming back with a small army of skinchangers.

From the chapter: ---- “Perhaps you understand, then.” Wyman Manderly lurched ponderously to his feet. “I have been building warships for more than a year. Some you saw, but there are as many more hidden up the White Knife. Even with the losses I have suffered, I still command more heavy horse than any other lord north of the Neck. My walls are strong, and my vaults are full of silver. Oldcastle and Widow’s Watch will take their lead from me. My bannermen include a dozen petty lords and a hundred landed knights. I can deliver King Stannis the allegiance of all the lands east of the White Knife, from Widow’s Watch and Ramsgate to the Sheepshead Hills and the headwaters of the Broken Branch. All this I pledge to do if you will meet my price.” “I can bring your terms to the king, but-” Lord Wyman cut him off. “If you will meet my price, I said. Not Stannis. It’s not a king I need but a smuggler.” Robett Glover took up the tale. “We may never know all that happened at Winterfell, when Ser Rodrik Cassel tried to take the castle back from Theon Greyjoy’s ironmen. The Bastard of Bolton claims that Greyjoy murdered Ser Rodrik during a parley. Wex says no. Until he learns more letters we will never know half the truth … but he came to us knowing yes and no, and those can go a long way once you find the right questions.” “It was the Bastard who murdered Ser Rodrik and the men of Winterfell,” said Lord Wyman. “He slew Greyjoy’s ironmen as well. Wex saw men cut down trying to yield. When we asked how he escaped, he took a chunk of chalk and drew a tree with a face.” Davos thought about that. “The old gods saved him?” “After a fashion. He climbed the heart tree and hid himself amongst the leaves. Bolton’s men searched the godswood twice and killed the men they found there, but none thought to clamber up into the trees. Is that how it happened, Wex?” The boy flipped up Glover’s dagger, caught it, nodded. Glover said, “He stayed up in the tree a long time. He slept amongst the branches, not daring to descend. Finally he heard voices down beneath him.” “The voices of the dead,” said Wyman Manderly. Wex held up five fingers, tapped each one with the dagger, then folded four away and tapped the last again. “Six of them,” asked Davos. “There were six.” “Two of them Ned Stark’s murdered sons.” “How could a mute tell you that?” “With chalk. He drew two boys … and two wolves.” “The lad is ironborn, so he thought it best not to show himself,” said Glover. “He listened. The six did not linger long amongst the ruins of Winterfell. Four went one way, two another. Wex stole after the two, a woman and a boy. He must have stayed downwind, so the wolf would not catch his scent.” “He knows where they went,” Lord Wyman said. Davos understood. “You want the boy.” “Roose Bolton has Lord Eddard’s daughter. To thwart him White Harbor must have Ned’s son … and the direwolf. The wolf will prove the boy is who we say he is, should the Dreadfort attempt to deny him. That is my price, Lord Davos. Smuggle me back my liege lord, and I will take Stannis Baratheon as my king.” Old instinct made Davos Seaworth reach for his throat. His fingerbones had been his luck, and somehow he felt he would have need of luck to do what Wyman Manderly was asking of him. The bones were gone, though, so he said, “You have better men than me in your service. Knights and lords and maesters. Why would you need a smuggler? You have ships.” “Ships,” Lord Wyman agreed, “but my crews are rivermen, or fisherfolk who have never sailed beyond the Bite. For this I must have a man who’s sailed in darker waters and knows how to slip past dangers, unseen and unmolested.” “Where is the boy?” Somehow Davos knew he would not like the answer. “Where is it you want me to go, my lord?” Robett Glover said, “Wex. Show him.” The mute flipped the dagger, caught it, then flung it end over end at the sheepskin map that adorned Lord Wyman’s wall. It struck quivering. Then he grinned. For half a heartbeat Davos considered asking Wyman Manderly to send him back to the Wolf’s Den, to Ser Bartimus with his tales and Garth with his lethal ladies. In the Den even prisoners ate porridge in the morning. But there were other places in this world where men were known to break their fast on human flesh. (A Dance with Dragons - Chapter 29 - Davos IV)

[@Jennifer-di4nl]

Great job!!

[@comradestannis]

From the chapter: ---- The man who stepped through the door was not one of his gaolers. He was tall and haggard, with a deeply lined face and a shock of grey-brown hair. A longsword hung from his hip, and his deep- dyed scarlet cloak was fastened at the shoulder with a heavy silver brooch in the shape of a mailed fist. “Lord Seaworth,” he said, “we do not have much time. Please, come with me.” Davos eyed the stranger warily. The “please” confused him. Men about to lose their heads and hands were not oft accorded such courtesies. “Who are you?” “Robett Glover, if it please, my lord.” “Glover. Your seat was Deepwood Motte.” “My brother Galbart’s seat. It was and is, thanks to your King Stannis. He has taken Deepwood back from the iron bitch who stole it and offers to restore it to its rightful owners. Much and more has happened whilst you have been confined within these walls, Lord Davos. Moat Cailin has fallen, and Roose Bolton has returned to the north with Ned Stark’s younger daughter. A host of Freys came with him. Bolton has sent forth ravens, summoning all the lords of the north to Barrowton. He demands homage and hostages … and witnesses to the wedding of Arya Stark and his bastard Ramsay Snow, by which match the Boltons mean to lay claim to Winterfell. Now, will you come with me, or no?” “What choice do I have, my lord? Come with you, or remain with Garth and Lady Lu?” “Who is Lady Lu? One of the washerwomen?” Glover was growing impatient. “All will be explained if you will come.” Davos rose to his feet. “If I should die, I beseech my lord to see that my letters are delivered.” “You have my word on that … though if you die, it will not be at Glover’s hands, nor Lord Wyman’s. Quickly now, with me.” Glover led him along a darkened hall and down a flight of worn steps. They crossed the castle’s godswood, where the heart tree had grown so huge and tangled that it had choked out all the oaks and elms and birch and sent its thick, pale limbs crashing through the walls and windows that looked down on it. Its roots were as thick around as a man’s waist, its trunk so wide that the face carved into it looked fat and angry. Beyond the weir-wood, Glover opened a rusted iron gate and paused to light a torch. When it was blazing red and hot, he took Davos down more steps into a barrel-vaulted cellar where the weeping walls were crusted white with salt, and seawater sloshed beneath their feet with every step. They passed through several cellars, and rows of small, damp, foul-smelling cells very different from the room where Davos had been confined. Then there was a blank stone wall that turned when Glover pushed on it. Beyond was a long narrow tunnel and still more steps. These led up. “Where are we?” asked Davos as they climbed. His words echoed faintly though the darkness. “The steps beneath the steps. The passage runs beneath the Castle Stair up to the New Castle. A secret way. It would not do for you to be seen, my lord. You are supposed to be dead.” Porridge for the dead man. Davos climbed. They emerged through another wall, but this one was lath and plaster on the far side. The room beyond was snug and warm and comfortably furnished, with a Myrish carpet on the floor and beeswax candles burning on a table. Davos could hear pipes and fiddles playing, not far away. On the wall hung a sheepskin with a map of the north painted across it in faded colors. Beneath the map sat Wyman Manderly, the colossal Lord of White Harbor. “Please sit.” Lord Manderly was richly garbed. His velvet doublet was a soft blue-green, embroidered with golden thread at hem and sleeves and collar. His mantle was ermine, pinned at the shoulder with a golden trident. “Are you hungry?” “No, my lord. Your gaolers have fed me well.” “There is wine, if you have a thirst.” “I will treat with you, my lord. My king commanded that of me. I do not have to drink with you.” Lord Wyman sighed. “I have treated you most shamefully, I know. I had my reasons, but … please, sit and drink, I beg you. Drink to my boy’s safe return. Wylis, my eldest son and heir. He is home. That is the welcoming feast you hear. In the Merman’s Court they are eating lamprey pie and venison with roasted chestnuts. Wynafryd is dancing with the Frey she is to marry. The other Freys are raising cups of wine to toast our friendship.” Beneath the music, Davos could hear the murmur of many voices, the clatter of cups and platters. He said nothing. “I have just come from the high table,” Lord Wyman went on. “I have eaten too much, as ever, and all White Harbor knows my bowels are bad. My friends of Frey will not question a lengthy visit to the privy, we hope.” He turned his cup over. “There. You will drink and I will not. Sit. Time is short, and there is much we need to say. Robett, wine for the Hand, if you will be so good. Lord Davos, you will not know, but you are dead.” Robett Glover filled a wine cup and offered it to Davos. He took it, sniffed it, drank. “How did I die, if I may ask?” (A Dance with Dragons - Chapter 29 - Davos IV)

Wex followed shaga and rickon for awhile, so that probably led him to find a sect of northern soldier, most likely manderly men. He was probably taken prisoner for awhile, as he was most likely still wearing clothing with the greyjoy kraken on it, and started questioning him. When they figured out he was there when winterfell burned, that's probably when he was sent to white harbor to learn letters and get the full story. Or not. Who knows. It's not important for the story, but im sure a million events people could come up with for how he got there. If there was going to be survivors, they had to go somewhere to tell the story. And martin chose the manderlys. Don't need to overthink every single detail

gods that was excellent i feel you lord wyman

[@jwilson544]

You performance for lord wyman...... is my favorite performance of the entire series from you. The rage towards the freys, the disgust towards ramsay, the steadfast in his planning, all amazing. You raised him from a fascinating big player to my favorite character in the series

[@1914jblue]

Elite Wyman voice too.

[@thesamejackalsniperthatkil117]

Best. Davos. Chapter. Wyman Manderly is legit one of the best non pov characters and my absolute favorite. A cunning deceitful, tywin-like schemer, who at first is easy to hate, since we hear of him mounting davos' head on a spike from c*rsei, and how he stands up against davos at the court. Then there is his amazing speech. The North remembers my friends. The North remembers!!! Now, let's eat bread and salt and feast upon some tasty fr*y pies. 🥧

Wyman is so awesome. Great representation for an overweight character, he understands his body is now a tool for mummery, his mind is sharper and braver than almost any other northern lord

[@justindesnoyers4105]

Outstanding chapter

[@thesamejackalsniperthatkil117]

My new favorite. The North remembers. Vengeance. justice. fire and blood.

[@HeyNonyNonymous]

Fuck the show for cutting THAT.

[@Wyr_111]

Wyman is a fucking G

[@knightsfb32]

Devos should have asked for the imposters fingers to replace his luck 😂😂

[@ubigmadbruh]

Yes sir💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@jlc6542]

I think this is one of the best chapters in the series. Your Wyman was fantastic. You really did it justice. Thank you.

[@Caramelo23606]

It wouldn't surprise me at all if Davos begins TWOW already taken captive by the Skagosi.
