Rodrik knows nothing of marriage, he knows only of wine, women, and boats.

I repeat my statement re: "What a great role model for Aethan".

So the new Daemon Targaryen then?

Cause that whole "In the Vale the men fuck sheep instead of their women since their ugly" and the fact that Daemon was originally married to a Royce who he called his 'Bronze Bitch'

Daemon Targaryen was a gutless coward who ran away to Asshai twice because he was scared of Dalton Greyjoy and High Septon Braeden. (Previous game Canon ;) )

You're talking about the iron arrows and grapeshot that the English used in the Hundred Years War against the French. I don't remember how effective they actually were compared to the grapeshot.

Yup. Pretty natural when you think about it - people had known how to make arrows fly for millennia, so making one out of iron sturdy enough to ram down this new gunpowder doohickey makes perfect sense.

He drinks so much that if he squints, the King's sister, the lippy one, doesn't look like death incarnate.

On the one hand, he's devilishly handsome and powerful, Sibela likes.

On the other hand, she has "Ramsey my way to the Iron Throne via sheer chutzpah and lack of morals" on her To Do List and this is an affront to the Patriarchy and he'd end up trying to kill her instead of helping...

And that is in no way an obstacle to her hooking up with him a few (dozen) times, see earlier re: his devilish handsomeness.

Aethan can play wingman/the guy who keeps Rodrik plied with drinks.

Start them off, or you want me to, Aethan and his...let's see, Rodrik's cousin married his cousin, that would...

He'll just call him Nuncle Rodrik. (Unfortunately at the nonce Sibela has been sent off to do dragon ridery things elsewhere, so Rodrik fathering the Antichrist will have to wait until next year :( )

Keep it away from Lys please.

Lys doesn't need the Spawn of Satan near it.

Yes.

Seriously, I understand why we did undid it, but Vel having zombie Daemon pop up out of nowhere to shut down the entire Great Council and marshalling them to attack Essos was awesome. I fully expect that at House Targaryen's darkest hour Wade will have Daemon return.

Probably to battle immortal dragon-riding valyrian steel armor wearing Gwin Greyjoy.

Sadly as awesome as Gwin is she can't ride dragons since she ain't Valyrian.

She will be riding a Giant Valyrian Lava Kraken instead.

Not interested.

That is...I was trying to bait Zombie Daemon into a single combat with the representative of the secretly Faith backed Free State of Sanctuary who was going to be replaced by a masked High Septon "Remember when you left all those sellswords to die on the Stepstones, Rogue Prince? Number of survivors: one too many."

And then he disappeared in a poof of retcon, I never got my closure to that story one way or another, and now I have zero interest in the character.

Sounds like a great role model for a thirteen year old just got unheired Targaryen about to be packed off to the Vale to probably marry... @Mina if I said your description of Yolinda Royce made me think "Hida" would I be in the ball park?

You know me all too well.

@Everyone
Tech is updated where it rightfully belongs. As has been noted, this is Planetos, not the real world. While modeled on the real thing there will be divergences and differences based on the motivations and necessities that drive innovation.
