We can save House Grafton from extinction? :cry:

That makes me so fucking happy.

I hated the idea of extinguishing the line of a House that fought for us and paid the price for it. Loathe the thought.

Whats the whole story here? I am not up and up on the asoiaf lore and I prefer story time to diving into the wiki.

Blood for the blood gods are needed yes, and in this case the Corbrays will make great sacrifices, as they are corrupted by devils, but if the Corbrays should turn out to be the only line we really have cause to kill, I'm sure the old gods will accept appeasement sacrifices from the other lines, in anything Winterborn.

Eh, I don't think so.

Despite common interpretation the Old Gos are not screaming babies wanting their bottle, they are spirits that actually lived and died through the Andal invasion.
A very vocal subset of them wants Andal-blood and will accept no substitutes, for revenge tasts sweeter than even 100% pure, biological Outsider Juice.
 
Revenge juice with a double helping of irony it is.

Cursing him with impotence is still on the table...

Edit: I was specifically asking what price they payed was referrig to.

So basically, Aerys executes Rickard and Brandon and a bunch of Northern Heirs/Lords and then sends a letter to Jon Arryn like "yo Jonny boy, hand over those crazy kids of yours", and Jon's like "fuck that Gay tyrant shit" and calls his banners.

House Grafton and House Corbray are like "oh fuck" and call their banners to hold the port against siege to prevent Ned Stark and Robert Baratheon from sailing to their lands and raising their banners. Jon organizes his Lords, Ned and Bobby go in deep for Gulltown. Bob kills Marq Grafton and basically Gerold Grafton's entire family and half his Household Knights mano a mano.

Lyn earns his Knighthood before the siege's conclusion, then Corbray switch sides, Grafton is forced to supplication even though Robbie the Wrecker smashed his Dad to bits, and told to like it.

Flash forward like five or six years and Viserys gets into contact with Brynden "Master Plan" Bloodraven, and makes a Pact with the OG Tree gangsters to extinguish or humiliate a bunch of Houses whom in ye olden days committed some Capital A Atrocities...including House Grafton.

Present day, Viserys is like "yo dawg das fucked up" and Bloodraven is like "figure it the fuck out!"

So Viserys is like "aight Uncle Bird, I got a plan".

And... here we are.

I can't help but think, that players of Bloodraven quest have rolled a nat 100 on random events and Viserys does something improbable, but super useful, to their cries of bullshit.

I think we already told that group about Sarnor, it's all the other Sarnori wanderers that need contacting.

We have not. We told them about how we had a neat Sarnori sword, and then we traded it to them for Garin's Ring of False Flight. However, this was months before we ever set foot in Sallosh. We never contacted them afterwards about it. We're pretty overdue on this.
 
@das_slash I think we can neatly wrap this up by having BR contact the bard, who will then relay the message to the girl, and perhaps even finagle the Corbray sacrifice in exchange of mercy angle.

It's much, much easier to accept coming from his daughter.

Yes, but i am not sure if we know about the Bard, hence why i want to ask BR for his input.
If we know about him, i can edit the plan. (or you are free to do so yourself)
 
Keep in mind the whole OG hateboner was a lot stronger before we forcefully grabbed the Old Gods by the muzzle and force fed them pure 100% organic outsider juice. I remember Bloodraven saying something to that effect.. seriously, the scale of power we've been feeding to the OG has been insane, nobody expected that, not even DP himself, and that has had a few side effects on the OG.

Edit: Oh, and since this was Azel's whole scheme, I'll leave it to him to finish.

  • [X] "I have met some wayward daughters in my travels, and since she seems better than most, i would not call it cowardice to allow her to make her own life, but i sense that in allowing her that happiness, you would be denying her and yourself a much needed forgiveness and the comfort than only kin can give."
    -[X] "Unfortunately that same happiness only makes a reconciliation harder, do not push hard my lord, i could try to contact her, but i would advise you to allow her her own pace, admit you did wrong, and that you care for her and wish her the best, that your hall is always open for her and that you will never again force her to your will."
    -[X] Ask him to allow you to travel to a Godswood to send the message to her, leave and contact bloodraven (sacrifice needed?) let him know of the developments, and ask for his guidance and how it relates to his own plots, you have a chance to turn the Graftons to the service of the Old Gods.

    [X] Offer to attempt to contact his daughter and invite her to visit, suggesting that he might take this Old God's granted opportunity as a chance to reconcile with her.
    -[X] If he accepts, and Alyssa proves willing, ask Dany to continue manipulating Grafton's dreams, including an underlying suggestion that he name Alyssa as his heir.
