A Con of Langs (HotD, Bloodmoon, IaFCon 2022) (video)

We've got *deep* cuts from HBO's shows past, present and future straight from language creator David J Peterson AND a report from Ice & Fire Con 2022 featuring a ton of pictures - including Ash, Sean and Aziz as Green Men... David created Dothraki, High Valyrian, Andalese (yep!), a Children of the Forest language not to mention the languages (sign language included) for Dune, the 100, Into the Badlands, Thor: Dark World and so many others. He even spoke Skroth (the White Walker language) to us. I had the best seat in the house for his main presentation and talked to him privately as well. We'll also respond to questions/comments from VRR for TWOIAF from 2022 so far. Video podcast available on Spotify.

Valar Rereadis: TWOIAF - The Kingdom of Sarnor

A kingdom dominated by corrupt nobles who ignore an existential threat while fighting each other... sound familiar? A realm that finds itself suddenly confronted with a huge mass of Dothraki united under one leader... sound familiar? An ancient culture's history and art burned by people from a culture that values destruction... sound familiar? The story of the Kingdom of Sarnor is powered by parallels to The Seven Kingdoms, while also a story all its own. From the Silver Sea to the Sarne and the vast grasslands around them. Features a section on HP Lovecraft's "The Doom that Came to Sarnath". www.patreon.com/historyofwesteros historyofwesteros.threadless.com Nina: goodqueenaly.tumblr.com Sean's YouTube: bit.ly/3818H9X www.historyofwesteros.com

Religion & Magic: Weirwood Tour (2014)

Published April 6, 2014. The episode features themes of blood and ancestry, as weirwoods tend to be inextricably tied to the surrounding area, both physically and culturally. Given the broad scope of this topic, quite a variety of related subjects come up. Heart tree-murdering Melisandre makes an appearance or two, the Wall is discussed as well as several members of House Stark and some very out of the way places you've barely heard of. We go from Beyond the Wall to the far south, considering not just where the weirwoods are, but where they might have been in the past. Given that there are so many places left unseen in the story, we make educated guesses where other trees might be. This isn't just about where the trees are, though. The absence of weirwoods can be as conspicuous as the most grotesque Heart Tree face.

Religion & Magic: Weirwoods (2014)

A classic episode, published January 29, 2014. A deep look into the bloody eyes and mouths of the Heart Trees. Are the trees a conduit of the Old Gods or are the trees themselves the Old Gods? Bran's chapters give us endless clues, but there are also hidden references elsewhere. We bring it all together and break it all down.

Religion & Magic: The Comet (2014)

Interpreted by many and seen by all. Was it sent by the gods or is it a sign that magic and dragons have returned? Whatever the meaning, there will be blood and fire. Ashaya and Aziz give an overview of what to expect in the series while asking a bunch of tough questions. Particular attention is paid to parallels between various supernatural elements found throughout the books. Published in 2014.
