@@trli7117I’d argue “Red or Black, a Dragon is still a Dragon.” Aside from the theories, objectively it’s true in lore as the colored scales of a dragon make little difference

[@jeffwhite5007]

The tully words: family, duty, honor, make a lot of sense when you think of why Ned didn't tell cat the truth of Jon's parentage. Ned is putting his family, Jon, ahead of his duty to be honest with wife, or his honor of not having a bastard. I don't think cat would have respected Ned as much if he spilled the beans.

[@JoshuaHenelyThornhill]

A chill video while we wait for the War do the Dragons 😤 Also, it may only be 6 house words in Dorne but “Unbowed.Unbent.Unbroken” still echoes in my mind. The Martells have probably the coolest words with the Starks and the Greyjoys.

[@threezus7740]

Agreed with it being top tier, like the Starks. It's basically an open reminder to the Targs (and Westeros as a whole) that no one could ever succeed in conquering the Martells.

[@DLYChicago]

A follard would mean a fool, yet there words are "none so wise".

[@donalddwamae444]

the lanisters are NOt as old as the starks. they are decendants of andals, who came after the first men.

[@vizuall777]

This is not true. Lann the Clever is from the Age of Heroes, which pre-dates the Andal invasion by probably thousands of years. There is even a Godswood called the stone garden within Casterly Rock, complete with a Wierwood heart tree. King Tybolt Lannister initially fought the Andal invaders, but later Lannister kings began arranging marriages with the Andal warlords. Credit: A Wiki of Ice and Fire

[@Njeezynjabs]

You should not make such comments if you have no idea what tf you are talking about. The found of House Lannister was a First Men from the age of heroes. the Lannisters adopted Andal heritage when the last First Man Lannister King (Gerold III Lannister) died without a son, his daughter married an Andal knight called Ser Joffrey Lydden. Joffrey was crowned as King Joffrey I Lannister, thus bringing the Andal blood into House Lannister. In fact there are many First Men houses in the south who married Andals and adopted Andal culture.

Does House Marbrand in the Westerlands have 2 branches? Also, why would 2 Vale houses have the same words?

[@celinhabr1]

Ours* is the fury, not Our. Really nice video!

[@KingOfWinter]

I want to know what House Gardner’s words were. The jokester in me thinks “flowers and blood” and Aegon used it as inspiration for his house words after he killed them all since they do claim to be the ancestors of almost every house in Westeros. But maybe “We sowed the seeds” “first among family” “King of Kings” “The Hand of Summer” or “the thorn in the Rose”

[@KaiHung-wv3ul]

I think "We Sowed the Seeds" or "The Hand of Summer" is most likely of these, the latter is particularly interesting since it contrasts the Stark words "Winter is Coming", and the Gardeners and Starks were some of the oldest and most influencial houses in Westeros.

House Dayne of Starfall is a Noble House in Dorne, sworn to House Martell. Their sigil is a silver star and sword, drawn either crossed or with the sword piercing the star. Their words are "Fallen and Reborn."

It’s unknown right now. George said their words are a spoiler for the books. Well found out eventually.

[@vizuall777]

I think their words are “Dawn brings the light” or something like that 😂

[@KaiHung-wv3ul]

@@vizuall777 "We Bring the Dawn" would make sense, with the Dawn/Lightbringer thing, and also because the Daynes have a connection with the Hightowers, and this connects to "We Light the Way".

[@vizuall777]

@@KaiHung-wv3ulYes, any of that would make sense. However, with the current evidence, it only makes sense if either Jon Snow has Dayne blood (N+A=J). Or if Faegon (Phaegon???) is actually Ned and Ashara’s son, but he had her take him east so that It would be easier to pass Jon off as his bastard. However, I just came up with that shit and i don’t think there’s really much evidence for that. There is more evidence that Jon is Ned and Ashara’s (N+L=J) and Faegon is Rhaegar and Lyanna’s (R+L=A). The strongest evidence points to R+L=J, but in my opinion N+L=J makes a far better story in general, a better twist because that would make Jon Ned’s only trueborn child and all the other Stark children bastards. The evidence is there for it, just hidden better than RLJ

[@KaiHung-wv3ul]

@@vizuall777 I'm willing to say there is a possibility for N+A=J, but there is no way Jon is trueborn either way. The point of his story is that he rose from a bastard to Lord Commander not because of lineage (mostly), but his ability, showing how anyone, regardless of their birth, can become exceptional. Why would GRRM undermine that by making him secretly legitimate?

[@fly_pie_1172]

why are they called 7 kingdoms if there are 9

[@KofiBreak]

The crow lands aren’t considered a kingdom because no one has fully conquered dominion over it. Now it is used to help the crown gain income. Thousands of years before the main series in the Age of heros, the Isle and Rivers(Iron islands and the riverlands) were occupied by Harren Hoare (Who occupied Harrenhall). After Haren died at the hands of Aegon and his dragons, the riverlands was given to Hoster Tully and the Iron Islands was given to the Grey King(who is the first greyjoy on pyke.) There are 9 different major landmarks which include -The North -The Vale -The Westerlands -The Reach -The Crownlands -The Iron Islands -Dorne -The Stormlands -The Riverlands The Crownlands as stated before, is just land that belongs to the crown. The Iron Islands although apart of the seven kingdoms, is as it says An Island. It’s seperated from Westeros, and its culture is vastly different from the mainland despite it still being (technically) loyal to the crown.
