The Trouble with Tywin Lannister and Matrim Cauthon – The Bard’s Truth, Episode 9-4

Now, wait, before you click away because Mat and Tywin are not at all the same, and HOW DARE YOU Green Bard to compare them?!?! First of all, I agree with you. Let me assuage your fears. Every once in a while an author creates an intriguing character but something goes awry along the way. […]

The Worst Characters in ASoIaF

I’m not a hater. I promise. I don’t get into shipping culture or stan culture, in general, and I definitely don’t get into “anti” culture. That said, I did get pulled into a question recently on twitter: Who are your 5 least favourite characters in asoiaf? Now, how do you even make a criteria for […]

Cat of the Canals is Molly Malone: Alive, Alive Oh!

My handle comes from the Irish Song “Molly Malone”, which was immediately brought to mind when I read the Cat of the Canals chapter. The Chorus: Alive, Alive, Oh! Alive, Alive, Oh! Crying Cockles and Mussels, Alive, Alive, Oh! I play this song and other folk songs with my actual Irish Band: The Bold O’Donohughs. […]

Kingsblood VIII: Hidden Dragonseeds

The Bard’s Truth, Episode 7.5 I recently mentioned in a twitter post on #ASongofMadness that I was voting for Gilly, on account of her hidden dragon blood. I got some feedback for @lizdated that she had never heard of that idea, asking if I have a video of that theory! Well, no, I didn’t. I […]

Dragon Bonds IV: Dany Abandons Her Children, Drogon Abandons Dany (Spoilers Extended)

If A Storm or Swords was a transition period for Dany’s dragons (call it their teen years), I would say that A Dance with Dragons is their final transition to adulthood. No longer are they lovable beasts; they are now dangerous creatures, with fully developed personalities – and wills – of their own. This applies to all 3, but especially to Drogon.
