A Song of Ice and Fire Theories: Euron Apotheosis - What Is Evil? (Part 1)

In A Song of Ice and Fire Euron Greyjoy was the second born son of Quellon Greyjoy, lord of the Iron Islands. It seems that even from his earlier days there existed darkness within him, a darkness that only grew with time. I believe Euron is a psychopath. According to the dictionary, psychopathy is defined by impaired empathy and remorse, and bold, disinhibited, and egotistical traits. The word psychopath does not imply delusional thought or irrational action. Euron thinks extremely highly of himself and is incapable of empathizing with other people. And now he seeks final Ascension. The Horn, Victarion, and Holy Men all seem key to Euron’s Grand Plan.

I made a mistake in this video. I said that Euron Greyjoy was the second born son but he is actually the fifth born son. He was born after Balon. Two of the older ones died as infants and one was sick of greyscale and murdered by Euron.

[@SuzakuX]

Here's my rough take: Euron, Bran, Bloodraven, and the Faceless Men are all operating within the realm of the Great Other (Death) in their own ways, though they may not all be working toward the same ends. First, the connection between the House of Black and White, shade of the evening, and the weirwood trees. Shade of the Evening is made from black trees with blue leaves, contrasting with the weirwood trees with their white wood and red leaves. Shade of the evening and weirwood paste both produce roughly the same effects when consumed -- taste like a mix of every flavor in your memory, then evoking prophetic visions. The Faceless Men also use incense with similar properties, and their door is famously carved from black and white wood, while they dress in cloaks of black and white. Second, the connection between the Faceless Men and the Doom of Valyria. They are former slaves who worked in the volcanic mines of Valyria (likely excavating dragonglass and dragonsteel) but who are implied to have brought about the Doom of Valyria by assassinating the magi who maintained the Fourteen Flames. This nearly wiped out the Targaryens and even killed many of their dragons. I feel like this positions them, generally, as enemies of "fire" (life / light) and thus allies of "ice" (death / darkness). Third, the connection Euron has to, well, _everything._ He has at least hired a Faceless Man to kill his brother, and quite possibly to procure a book from the Citadel with details on how to kill dragons, and some theories suggest he may be a Faceless Man himself (note the many similarities between Euron, Daario, and the Alchemist, all perhaps the same man, or many men using the same face). He is heavily implied to be a "fallen dreamer," perhaps a failed or rebellious former pupil of Bloodraven's, and his crow's eye implies another connection between the two. Then, of course, there's his particular form of atheism, in which he seems to learn from (and then torture) members of all faiths -- almost like a perversion of the concept of the Many-Faced God. There's also the imagery of him sitting upon the Iron Throne with all the gods impaled on its blades in Aeron's visions. Fourth, the ultimate role for Euron and Bran. At this point, I'm pretty well convinced that the Night King is the show's rough stand-in for _true_ book Euron. Dragonbinder _is_ the Horn of Winter, or will be: Euron will bind Viserion and use him to bring down the Wall, unleashing the Others on Westeros, releasing a new god "born from the graves and charnel pits" -- the Great Other -- perhaps Euron himself, the "godliest man ever," a personification of the Many-Faced God. I believe that if Euron is a fallen pupil of Bloodraven, than Bran will be the one who stands against him. Whether Bloodraven is a servant or enemy of the Great Other, Bran will stand (or rather sit) in opposition. Same way that he opposes the Night King in the show. Fifth, what this could mean for Arya. If the Faceless Men are truly a death cult in service of the Great Other (long ago destroying Valyria and halting the production of weapons that kill the Others and wights), then does that mean they are allied generally with Euron, or do they simply seek to maintain balance between (black and white)? It certainly seems that at least the Alchemist is conspiring with him. Will Arya rebel against them, or will she act on their behalf to prevent Euron for tipping the scales? Could this be the nugget that lead to her ultimately killing the Night King in the show? Will she kill Euron In the books?

It's interesting to me that GRRM talks so much about how he enjoys writing grey characters, when it seems like he also really delights in writing completely loathsome villains. Like a Ramsay or a Rorge or a Gregor Clegane, there is nothing sympathetic about Euron, but he remains a fascinating character precisely because of how repugnant and soulless he is.

[@isaacbruner65]

@Jethro Torczon I saw a theory that Gregor was suffering from a benign brain tumor which would explain his splitting head aches and possibly his violent personality. Also, he was addicted to opium (milk of the poppy)

pure evil characters are interesting for the same reason pure good characters are: seeing how they maintain their convictions in a world of grey morality. Captain America is an example of a pure good character done right. So is Superman. they're interesting BECAUSE they try to stay noble in a world that doesn't want them to be. Pure evil characters are equally engaging.

I kind of want the books to end with Euron winning. It would be a very ASOIAF ending for the Others to be defeated, only for it to turn out that Euron actually achieved his apotheosis, becoming a new eternal threat that must be confined to the depths of the sea, rather than the Lands of Always Winter. It would be even more awesome if, when/if the books introduce the Night King, it turns out that he was just another Euron-like figure from the ancient past that figured out how to achieve his own apotheosis, only he focused on the COTF and warging and necromancy instead of Valyrian fire and blood magic.

[@kasinokaiser1319]

Gabriel So Night King will be an Asian man hopping over from the other side of the planet to harass the north? I still think having him be an apotheotic Stark, perhaps even a close relative to Brandon the Builder is the best option as GRRM said he will not explore Yi Ti, Leng, or Asshai within the ASOIAF series

[@kasinokaiser1319]

Gabriel Well yes but in the case of Azor Ahai, he was a mythical historical figure who had lived and presumably died, and the Red Faith believers are merely looking for his representative or reincarnation. Same thing with the Bloodstone Emperor, he lived, betrayed the Yi Ti such as with the Night's King, and had been dealt with. He could be the Night King equivalent but wouldn't he be more likely to take revenge on the weakened leaders of Yi Ti and assault it's Blackstone Walls rather than doggedly harass the wildlings and the Starks? There almost seems to be some sort of intelligent intent behind the targetting of Westeros, and I feel had the White Walker Bloodstone Emperor been active we'd be seeing more White Walker activity against Asshai, the Dothraki, and the Jade Sea and these horrifying stories would most definitely have reached the Free Cities via traders who currently dismiss the White Walkers as no more than Westerosi/Yi Ti superstition right now along with much of Western Essos.

[@kasinokaiser1319]

Gabriel I was asking the question of why the White Walkers are currently putting all their efforts on Northern Westeros? Considering how Yi Ti is currently fractured into several warring states, it might be that they have some sort of analog to the Brotherhood of the Night's Watch and the warring states simply shrug off rumors about the White Walkers similar to the Seven Kingdom but until it's confirmed, we'll never really know. But this brings about another question as to why the White Walkers haven't simply crossed the Bone Mountains to fight the Dothraki and the Ibbenese, or navigate the shadowlands to sack Asshai. White Walkers don't seem like the fearful type and wouldn't just stop because of the Dothraki's reputation, and it's not like the Bony Mountains are an inhabited and well-defended fortification. Either there's some form of magic preventing the Eastern White Walkers from invading Essos, the Yi Ti have somehow defeated their Eastern Front already in some culminating battle, they're building force there as well, or most of them have been relocated to fight in Westeros.

[@kasinokaiser1319]

Gabriel Well GRRM will not explore Eastern Essos in ASOIAF so anything we'll find out about what happens there will mosy likely be second hand knowledge in the events to come

[@kasinokaiser1319]

Gabriel Would be interesting to see a spinoff about a Jon Snow-like figure in Yi Ti played by Steve Yeun who tries to unite the warring Yi Ti states and tries to set aside their differences with the Jogos Nhai, Hyrkoon, Leng, Asshai, and Ibbenese in order to form a coalition to deal with the White Walkers in the east

That just leaves the question now... If Euron Greyjoy is, infact, the Bloodstone Emperor who stared the Long Night. Then... Who`s the Prince to be Promised?... Who will be the one to rise against Euron and raise Lightbringer? Or... Will there be multiple heroes to up pose him? Think about it? In all the stories told. It`s the Bloodstone Emperor who sets the Long Night in motion. But there is always a hero that stops, his name is known not just as Azor Ahai, he`s also known as Neferion, Hyrkoon the Hero, Eldritch Shadowchaser and Yin-Tar. Now sure it`s easy to that "Ooh these names just refer to same person, it`s just a coincidence." Coincidence? I think not. It`s possible that maybe there wasn`t just one, but in fact multiple individuals who opposed the Bloodstone Emperor`s corruption. I mean, it`s stated in the books that it`s in Asshai that we get the legend of Azor Ahai. So that just leaves it open for more possibles. Now all of this is just my opinion, and me just making a crazy theory up. So take everything i just said with pounds worth of salt.

[@loooongneck]

@@trystenlyth1139 I personally believe they do all refer to the same person. But it's not a coincidence. The difference in names come from the fact that each of the different region's (that make up the Great Empire of the Dawn, which the Long Night ended) telling of the events alter the legend so that the hero is someone of their own region. The hero is called Azor Ahai in the Asshai'i legend. Neferion in the legend from the city of Nefer. Hyrkoon the Hero is the legend from the Patrimony of Hyrkoon. Yin Tar is the hero from the Yi Tish legend. All of these legends describe the same event: a hero that rose up to push back the demons of the long night, however since the Great Empire collapsed during the long night and all of these smaller nations formed from its remnants, it makes sense that each one would try to brand the hero who ended the long night as having been one of their own.

[@trystenlyth1139]

Euron is one of the most interesting characters in the books. The mystery GRRM has created around him is palpable.

Great video, cant wait for the next one.

[@_Woody_]

One of your best videos so far. Keep up the work about the books!!!

[@MrAlexkyra]

The sea of blood prophecy is fascinating. By the Forsaken chapter, Euron's fleet is at the Redwyne straits between the Arbor and the Three Towers, with the powerful Redwyne fleet facing them from one mouth of the strait, and the Hightower fleet and Lyseni Sellsails from the other. It seems that Euron's fleet is doomed, by Aeron's account they have around 36 longships along with a few prizes of war including a great cog. Against them are 200 warships and 1000 merchant ships of the Redwyne fleet and a presumably significant number of Hightower ships. The 100 ships of the Iron Fleet, the best that the Ironborn have, are approaching Meereen under Victarion's command and the remaining Ironborn ships (reportably 1000 in total) are mysterious absent. It seems that Euron is in a terrible position and badly outnumbered, and yet he planned to be in this position. Obviously the Redwynes and Hightowers are the ones sailing into a trap, but I wonder what it could be? It probably involves the missing Ironborn ships and perhaps Krakens and blood magic. There's a reason for the priests being tied to the prows of the ships after all. Either way, the Redwyne straits will soon be red with blood.

Absolutely no way that's happening. I think her ending will be one of the most different to the show. So many other aspects are part of her story, such as Aegon and evil Tyrion, then you add this mad man coming for her dragon and add Jon Snow who'll be less of a man than before.

Damn it’s been awhile since I’ve reread ASOIAF I almost forgot how f*cking terrible Euron is because of...well, what they did to him in the show 🤧🤧

[@ArdaKaraduman]

This made me even more sad to realise what we have been fed by the show, and what we have been missing ... Imagine Nightking making it to kings landing and clashing with Euron ! That would be a fantastic show ...

[@dirtygiraffe]

I'm *ALWAYS* ready for more Ideas of Ice and Fire! You and The Dragon Demands are my top favourite a Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones youtubers. Your podcasts with LmL are also highly appreciated. Love the magic, the unknown, and the horroresque(not sure if real word), and Lovecraftian aspects of the series.

[@lajaradayne3679]

Love it! You do the spooky ASOIAF videos like no one else. Making videos like this seems like a great coping skill to deal with the character assassinations on the show.

[@chickendrawsdogs3343]

If by chance they ever make Game of Thrones RPG... ...Euron MUST be voiced by Steve Blum.

[@YvanTDF]

Chicken Draws Dogs YES! That would be perfect!

[@BroadwayRonMexico]

And Victarion by Patrick Seitz

[@darkservantofheaven]

Nah, Crispin Freeman...Euron is like a nastier alucard

[@macdege6754]

I just went on a journey of there and back again and your videos kept me awake and hungry for more knowledge. Thank you so much!

[@ClintSprayberry]

Wow!! I am looking forward to the rest of this series man! That was an awesome video!

[@kjones5052]

I can not get enough of Euron. He's such a great fantasy villain.

[@joanisarmento]

Wish i could click like more times! Besides always loving your insight on the text, your reading and voice are also really amazing. Thank you for all you do. You've never disappointed me and you always keep on coming with more good stuff! 🤓Keep on! 😍

[@curtis25920]

So hyped for part 2. You are by far my favorite ASOIAF channel

[@tdkage]

God DAMN! What a video. Love this format that talks about the books. So deep, so well narrated...

[@WheresPoochie]

"butterfly God of Naath" Now THAT is interesting. Missandei is the only named character in ASOIAF from Naath. I wonder if the show indeed does have some similarities to the books to come and that Euron might indeed kidnap Missandei if/when she arrives to Westeros.

[@sentientcabbageman4140]

Game of thrones: "Soooooo he's just a wackie pirate guy right?"

[@doktorcool3740]

Great stuff! It sends shivers down my spine when you read the cryptic texts from the Forsaken chapter - makes them all more exciting!

[@yasservayani7269]

Seriously LOVE all the Euron related videos in the last 24 hours across KZbin!

[@luminyam6145]

I love GRRM but I find his writing very mysterious and hard to read. I actually enjoy your commentary on his books better than his books. Thank you for all your hard work, this is truly a labour of love.

[@Thebabybadass101]

You are the best ASOIAF channel please keep uploading I look forward to the next podcast!!

[@codyjboudreaux]

Can you talk about summer fashion ideas next video? Thanks

[@bohemiandoomer44]

Winter is coming

[@felipebrito4656]

Loved the voice acting in this video! Really good work! Just subscribed

[@jackd4827]

I love when you are reading some parts from the book! You have an amazing voice, please do longer videos when you read ASOIAF!

[@lilyalexander9486]

The way you narrated this made me feel like I was listening to Welcome to Night Vale. love it

[@ManSeekingMeaning]

Such a breathe of fresh air. Amidst this trainwreck of a GoT final season, your videos on the lore and world of ASoIaF are a complete pallet cleanser, as many others pointed out. Great video, by the way. One of your best, between the use of imagery, the perfect quotes, your intense and well paced narration, and even the music! Euron is such an interesting character, even by Earthos standards. Almost like he doesn't belong in the world Martin has created. Which, in a sense, makes him even more terrifying. Can't wait for part two! PS. Any chance we can get a video about Sothoryos and Ulthos? Your work on Ashai was fantastic, and I know you'd take what little is known about those two continents and intrigue/frighten us.

[@kqwentin]

Thank you for moving on from whatever D&D have done to the show. I never thought I'd say this but its really soothing to see a book euron video. Damn. The books are great. Book Euron is so ominous and dark. Show Euron was apparently based on some other character.

[@ofboriken]

Great job! Hurry up with the second vid! 😁

[@svg3876]

I watched the whole series before I ever even looked at one of the books. The book version of Euron is such a good character, the tv show did not do him justice. I think book euron is even more twisted and evil than Ramsay

[@Jim-be8sj]

Good job. I am excited to hear part 2!

[@CosmicFaust]

Phenomenal video! Can’t wait for part 2 😁!

[@blackflagsnroses6013]

Crappy show Euron killed a dragon. I think psycho god-King book Euron will take one of her dragons and ultimately it will die.

[@tendopain2585]

If Dany has to kill 1 of her sons that’d be the feels

[@MaestroRigale]

Hell, he might even sacrifice the dragon along with all the holy men and his brother, to facilitate his ascension.

[@StupidTrainStudios]

I think he’ll take a dragon and possibly give it to the Others to make a pact

[@918LM]

This narration is worthy of the terror of Euron. All the chills! Amazing! ❤

[@35oo]

I think travis fimmel (ragnar lothbrok ) would of made a great Euorn .

[@blackflagsnroses6013]

35oo hell yes. And portray a psycho Viking trying to become god-emperor not a poor excuse of a pirate

[@35oo]

i think if he had a more evil twist to ragnar lothbrok and more sadistic emphasises that would = Euron grayjoy books version or close to it , of course its not all up for the actor after all ,but rather the writing would play a big roll , but travis would be a better castin for his experience , even his facial expressions would do the work , he played in a film called warcraft he had a black long hair if he had an eyepatch he would look the part , but still its all about the story .

[@35oo]

I think if the writing was a bit better , instead of Euron having his thirst for cersi he would of raped her then kill her and take her kingdom , afterwards wait for dany and defeat her in the first battle and taking at least on of her dragons , dany goes to jon snow and theres the walkers story , whatever they do with it and however they want to end it , Euron should be the final villain.

[@Wolf10media]

He's got the eyes for it

[@squashedeyeball]

Our father, Travis lothbrok, whose light shines all that there is and whose glare causes all population to require diapers... He will be great indeed :) It's true that Ragnar never had a truly evil moments, but he is cruel on some occasions. If he would have to play someone evil, he would nail it. *Vikings spoilers* There were the scenes with jarl Brog "Like wings" and the blood eagle itself (2x6,x27), all his trolling of Saxons with the heads of their friends (Mainly 2x1 and 3x2), and his grins at people he hated and intended to kill (All throughout the show).

[@tokyoinooshi4836]

Quin with his "am I turning you on yet" reading voice 😍😍😍

[@marcpjoyner]

You’re awesome brother. Thanks for your excellent videos.

[@ith0rn329]

Your videos are always so good!

[@shortbuspimp]

I appreciate the art list at the end so I can look them up.

[@APalebloodSky]

I always interpreted the Sphinxes kneeling before Euron to mean Oldtown falling to him.

[@btaybreadtastic]

Thanks Quinn. I really needed some legit book analysis in this time of woeful writing 👏👏👏👏

[@blackflagsnroses6013]

Someone here said it. Had they more seasons Travis Fimmel from Vikings would have made an awesome psycho god-Emperor Euron.

[@doctornazgul547]

That was fascinating looking forward to part 2.

[@Airehcaz]

This is, in my opinion, the BEST video you’ve ever made. Great quality! and of course about the most interesting character in all of ASOIAF How long until part 2 you think?

[@godfreyofbouillon966]

Show's Euron to book's Euron is what Dark Helmet is to Darth Vader. I am pretty sure they would have casted Rick Moranis just couldn't get him

[@jayc3069]

Awesome video. Can't wait for more

[@mastermclovin0]

I know this video didn't get as many views as you normally get, but I hope you continue this regardless. It's really interesting and we'll put together.

[@Marc-hm6bz]

This is my most awaited part of the books: Euron's plan. I cant wait.

[@egoborder3203]

awesome episode!

[@bryantaylor9874]

I think it's pretty obvious the Dusky Woman is Pyatt Pree. The cut out tongue, the way she hisses at Moqoro, the Warlock in the dungeon muttering "Pree Pree Pree" like he had screamed the words until his voice gave out. I'm still not convinced he went to Valarya. The Basalisk Isle's were littered with Valaryan Slavers. Some must have been so wealthy that a Valaryan Steel Suit could have resided there at some point. It's def possible he went there, but I'm far from convinced for now.

[@PelosiStockPortfolio]

Another excellent video, your content is A+

[@guiledazen44]

Euron and Victarion are 2 of the best things that happened in the books.

[@moooo2166]

THANK YOU. I needed this

[@annaarwen4345]

Id love you to do chapter readings and analysis. You really bring the horror and mystery of the books to life x

[@robertoreyes8577]

Watching this at work w/o headphones, and every time the close captions spell urine instead of Euron, it cracks me up.

[@TertiusOculusOris]

Thanks for the vid Quinn.

[@willraven2302]

This was great! It reminds me how good the books really are.

[@MACMETALFACE]

Nice! one of my favorites from the books! Love from Japan!

[@holeinmysoul1]

Well you are famous for awesome anime . hope your people will make an anime version from the books . the whole world will thank you so much

[@omiorahman6283]

Herold stokes from death flags vs euron would be interesting

[@yagamifire7861]

Euron for the Iron Throne. Pulling for my fav character!

[@Reydriel]

Lmao, what does he care about the Iron Throne?

[@davebowman9000]

Awesome video!

[@Tony_touch_styles]

Great video! Your book videos are a relief from the season 8 disaster

[@albdamned577]

Spot on vid. I am glad you are focusing on something worth it, instead of raging over a poor description of what we all want.

[@soufianeag9966]

Amazing job bro !

[@xxsouthxxsidexxroyxx]

You've got a great voice man, you would do great voice over work!
