I'm rather glad the OG can't give us a bound up Wish, I would really prefer not to see what move the Others would get to make in return. If a resurrection is worth a frost dragon, what in God's name is a Wish worth?

It also puts Tiamat into a whole new level of perspective, or rather, her apparent power-level, compared even to other Deities.

Tiamat might profit from being an ancient Dragon here.

Even if she had no divine power at all, she could still cast Wish or Miracle by her very nature, so maybe binding it to an item comes easier to her than it does to a collective of druids, fey and trees who have no real connection to the spells at all.

Didn't we want to ask Blood raven about stuff going on with the Starks? Like what mages the have and general megical shenanigans? We were originally gonna ask Jon but DP said Bloodravne would be better.

Yeah, I forgot about that.

@Artemis1992, can you amend your vote to ask about this stuff before we go looking for the Githzerai?
 
BTW, the Ferryman is a way cooler name than the Merling King. For a second there, I thought Bloodraven was going to tell us the Ferryman had become known as the Stranger.

At least one of the really old gods, as opposed to the newish Old Gods, is still doing relatively well. Hang in there Stormy, we'll get you some worshipers soon.

Poor Malarys. First we drag him to Sothoryos, where everything is trying to kill him, then he doesn't even get a full day back in SD before we point him at the Feywild. Dude needs a nice relaxing vacation somewhere civilized after this. The City of Brass, maybe?

@TotallyNotEvil Just read the latest chapter of Savage Divinity.

Everyone is standing around arguing, and Rain's slave friends are offering to commit seppuku if it'll get him away from the front lines, and Rain's just like "all of you guys are fucking idiots" and then starts dressing down Dastan and pointing out every logical follow-through for why people shouldn't be arguing about his enemies sending him to the most dangerous place on the continent for him right now, because even his Imperial Patron wants him to go there, or why give him a bodyguard who has to fight to the death for him who could straight up beat Gerel like a red-headed stepchild?

And then he starts taking charge and telling an entire courtyard full of Experts and Peak Experts and Generals what they should all be doing and they just let him, and Nian Zu's like "what the fuck" and "this is awesome" at the same time because he's a little mouthy shit who's also a cripple in a society where being a cripple is actually worse than being dead. Giving absolutely zero fucks.

In internal monologue the story's mostly "god you're so dumb but I can't stop reading" but then chapters like this happens and someone else is narrating and you realize: Rain's an outside context problem and a political operator who doesn't care about saving or giving face, so no one knows how to fucking handle him. His entire act is "refuge in audacity" without actually realizing he's hiding beneath it, and people think he's a Five Dimensional Chessmaster because they can't predict what moronic thing he's going to do next.

Your enemy can't predict your plans if even you don't know them.
 
Ah, you don't know how much you'll miss something until it's been eaten by a forum error for a few days.
