Right in addition to The Seven who hate fun, the only major magical institutions on the continent want to hoard it for themselves/stifle it (Maesters) or were part of a Devil plot (Alchemists).

But still. How long has Viserys been hopping all around the known world now?

Reminder here that the Maester plot to end all magic is the one thing that Viserys never could believe. The man who had worked with the likes of Aurane and Aedon considered it too stupid to comprehend.
 
@DragonParadox We are crafting 100 of these as a test run this month.
Sultan's Tribute

A sphere of deep red clay interspersed with burnt-brown particulates of Brown Mold, surrounding an inscribed metal core and embossed with a thumb sized portrait of a Dragon.
When depressed the Dragon Grins and the core is activated.

Effect:
When activated the core produces a Heat Metal effect causing the Brown Mold to grow until the duration has run it's course with a one round grace period for the user, doubling round by round thereafter from 5ft to an 80ft spread.
What would be the opinion of the Djinn and Shaitan visiting SD if shown these weapons for use against the Efreeti?
 
Christ the Westerosi magic dearth is pretty much like a kid with progeria at this point. You know why it is, but it doesn't make it any less fucking sad to see.
 
...Wow...

I mean not entirely unexpected for reasons others have said but...
*glances at the plans to toss around Level 8 Spells as Candy/Fertilizer.*

That's honestly sad.
It's not that no one in Westeros has access to that level of magic. Lanna Lannister is likely able to cast at least 7th level spells by now, and some of the Champions of the Seven, Lucan especially, can probably manage it as well. None of those capable, however, are allied or beholden to the Iron Throne.

Tywin certainly wouldn't have Lanna play delivery service to make Robert's trip easier, and I doubt she would volunteer.
 
You forgot the part where they've sent Stannis to murder us. Also twice.

And that little episode with selling a few warehouses of Wildfyre to a fucking Mindflayer.
They also embody every Valyrian prejudice about barbarians, they live absurdly far from any source of good chocolate, and they produced motherfucking Aurane and his magic cock :D
Clearly a nation deserving of death.
 
It's a little funny Stannis was sent to kill us twice and Viserys likes him.....Viserys has a weird fixation for Stannis really. Goes out of his way to help Stannis and wants to be BFF.
 
There is something sort of wonderful about Robert having to watch us be better than him at all his favorite stuff. We throw better tourneys, we're better at murder (if you count Baelor we are even better at killing Targaryens, I'd like to see how take that thing on), ladies of the evening enjoy our company more, etc. Imagine taking his hunts from him too :rofl::lol.

But we really, really suck at drinking, actually.

He could beat us in a straight no-magic drinking competition.

Which is something I absoutely give zero fucks about, but he has that at least.

We have a partner who loves us and who would literally stand at the gates of hell beside us, giving as good as we did to the monsters trying to break out.

And I'm pretty sure the trophy room totally outclasses any set of stuffed heads he might have. Back me up here, @Duesal

Excuse me? Do you honestly think that those fancy stag heads that Robert calls his "trophies" can hold a candle to our collection?
