[X] There is no reason not to give Lord Blackwood his visit to Sorcerer's Deep right away, you can spare a few hours

We can wrap this up on a good note. I really want to see his face when he sees the Tree of the Dawn Age. Afterwards @egoo I'm behind you for the minor actions.

I would like to take care of this now. There is unlikely to be a better time for it, after all, and it's very simple to get out of the way. Then we can segue directly into handling some minor actions, like @egoo suggested. We've got enough time this month to deal with quite a few of them.

Tytos Blackwood: "...that's a big tree..."

I've already included it into the "backlog" for DP :tongue:
CURRENT BACKLOG:
[] Lucan/Danelle's preachers reaction/interaction with SD, consequences of it.

[] Mind-Dragons interlude.

[] Lord Blackwood's reaction to SD.

[] Planar Rumors for 10th and 11th month.
-[] Also including a report on Wyverns performing in Efreeti war, 10th and 11th month

[] Varys' hatchlings.

[] RAs for the 11th month
--[] Valeria - The Godhunter: The fortress-ruin that held the Orb of Dragonkind still holds leashed power unlike anything you've ever sensed, but it remains dormant for now. With time, it might be possible to reconstruct the controls of that power, and with proper preparation use it as a weapon to slice away part of a god.

[] MAs for the 11th month.
-[] Includes showing the Heart-trees we've grown in 7 hills of Andalos past month and voted on the effects of this month.
--[] Probably best as a note next to the 26 HTs we've grown this month since we've yet to see them mentioned as done on-screen.

[] An episode of the Scholarum-show for Mirrorvision.

[] Menagerie additions:
-[] 1 Flame-Spawned Sprite to Mystical subjects
-[] "The Many", the swarm-hivemind from PoV - to Mystical Subjects

-[] Breeding pairs of Wizard's Shackles to the Menagerie
-[] 1 Mirror Serpent to Mystical subjects
-[] 86 Pegasi (67 Adults; 19 Foals) - to Mystical subjects

we can have that as an interlude later?
I mean, what'd we do that for IC, since we moved from giving tours a while ago?

I mean, I love "the fuck is this place I don't even"-reactions as much as the next man, but... well, it's not really looking like a good time-investment?

It's at most going to be a single update, and IC it's only a few hours. It truly isn't that much, and it makes a nice finish to the Riverlands as a whole.

Also this. I have an overwhelming desire to wipe the smirk off his face.
 
Whatever.
I'm pretty burned out lately, so I'm not even in the mood to argue this stuff, I assume DP will throw a vote for any given MA in our faces regardless.
Just may be at the very end of the month, and those piles before I started pushing MAs through were a bit of a mess.

Why do people not want to meet the Ghost of High Heart? Is there a reason not to do a likely short meeting?

For me it's because Rhaella rightfully blames her as the root cause of her misery with that bullshit prophecy prompting Rhaella's parents to force her to marry Aerys.

While the prophecy was a dick move, being able to make accurate (if confusing) prophecies that far in advance of what is being predicted, while still in the days of low magic, is potentially very valuable to us once we start getting into more long term play. I think looking into what is up with her is worth at least a pit stop despite our personal antipathy.

I think that's a bit much, it's hardly a Seer's fault that they have the eyes to see. May as well blame the lookout for seeing pirates or the scout for seeing water and not knowing it's salt.

Yeah, but prophecy is easily twistable. There would have been a different Azor Ahai/Prince That Was Promised figure even without us in the picture. Also I don't really trust the validity of a woods witch to begin with.

DP just told us that Viserys would basically have to go behind Rhaella's back for this since she'd be that much against it. I'm not really desperate to meet this woman. We have the best mechanics for seers as it is -- we have the House of Mirrors, Bloodraven, Felzath Farseer, and Yss for any divinations we might want. If the thread is hellbent on meeting her then fine, but I'm certainly not.

Prophecy in ASOIAF is nebulous at best. In canon I've never really bought the whole Prince Who Was Promised thing, which is why I hold contempt for Rhaegar for doing what he did. This contempt extends further up the line to the woods witch.
 
I'm honestly just a tiniest inkling curious if there's something behind the whole Woods Witch business. Is she just a throwaway canon character? Part of me doubts it, these types don't tend to be, and being kind of a background character with a direct connection to us I expect there to be some other major plothook to follow later on.

I definitely think we should talk to her, but OTOH I don't think it'll be done in one or two updates because of that.
