No Comments on Lemongate V: Duck! It’s a Halfmaester

Focus on the “lemongate” theory in ASOIAF, the political circumstances surrounding Dany and Viserys’s expulsion from the House with the Red Door. The narrative explores connections to various key figures, foreshadows Dany’s revelations about her past, and suggests a deeper conspiracy involving Illyrio and Varys’s manipulation.

Lemongate: Logic, Lunacy, and Levity

No Comments on Lemongate: Logic, Lunacy, and Levity

The Lemongate theory asserts that Daenerys Targaryen’s early years may have occurred in Tyrosh, not Braavos, despite her memories suggesting otherwise. The theory critiques inconsistencies in climate-related details and explores potential narrative connections to broader story arcs in George R.R. Martin’s universe, implying deeper mysteries yet to be revealed.

Over the sea (by Enife)

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.

This episode is in follow up to my prior work, “Kingsblood, Elitism, Magic, and 10,000 years of Sex in Westeros,” where I focused on how widespread I think Kingsblood is in GRRM’s TWoIaF. This episode I’ll focus more on why I think the texts are hinting at the interpretation I presented there. I think the […]
