They say every girl marries an echo of her father, which would require Shiera to besome kind of necromancer. I can see why she opted out

[@Valkanna.Nublet]

I wish there was a 'love' option, instead of just like. Far too rare that people properly cover her.

[@williamhermann6635]

Right? A 2 hr 47 min vid on sparcely mentioned character is outstanding lol

Was waiting for the "haughty" "hottie" pun. Also just wanna share that I once dreamt of Dany vs Young Griff campaign being a literal political campaign with debates, parades and all that in a weird mix of modern and medieval (they were riding large open back trucks or whatever those are called during their campaign parade, fgs). That was sometime late last year. And I didn't know about this musical. So yeah, that was a weird dream and this is a nice coincidence of my subconscious mind and the poster-giving Young Griff. 😂😂😂 Guess I'm thinking about ASOIAF too much.

GRRM talks about sorcery... that Shiera and Blood Raven practiced it... but he gives us few... if any... details. I mean, what does a Westerosi Sorcerer do? Make love potions? Dabble in poisons? I'd think it would be more like learning spells... like the spells necessary to create wild fire... or the spells used in building... or the spells used in the making of Valerian steel... but NONE of that is discussed at length and it seems like that knowledge is nearly lost in his modern era... except for the wild fire spells. There MUST be other uses for sorcery that he isn't telling us about? I mean... what else is there for a sorcerer? And if there really isn't much, how could this be a common interest among any two people?

[@tylerbarrett6652]

Or does it maybe include the glammor magic everyone seems to think Blood Raven used.... or shadow binding? We just don't have enough on this so-called sorcery.

[@maatthecat3966]

Getting knowledge (for protection and manipulation) and manifesting desired circumstances are handy. A spell for acquiring Septon Barth's lost dragon book, for example.

[@jenndowden8131]

lol over the faceless man game; that sounds like so much fun. ;D

[@jenndowden8131]

At 2:11:13 there was mention of "some other kind of blood", & I think that may be closer to any actual truth in the lore. I think menstrual blood has likely been used for various purposes, including bathing.

[@Brellowcrop]

This is gonna be a good one. Very excited

[@Sj-_3]

Samwell Tarly took a bath in blood 🩸

[@msbrandolynn]

Star of the Sea is one of Mary's titles in the Catholic Church/Christianity. It is a reference to her being the guiding light leading to Christ.

[@lololo4809]

Shiera was born in 180 A.C.

[@emrek99205]

Are there non-podcast versions of these videos? Just takes FOREVER for the topic to ever be talked about. I don't care to hear about the parties you went to that we will never know about otherwise. Or about what chemistry experiment one of the hosts wants to drink. 20 minutes in and there is 38 seconds of talk about the topic. CONDENSE THIS SHIT AND GET TO THE POINT!

[@williamhermann6635]

Or dont watch. Its their channel, not your's.

[@emrek99205]

@@williamhermann6635 Exactly this. Told KZbin to not recommend their channel. Only came back here now cause you replied and stated the obvious.
