History of Westeros (Game of Thrones)

How Ned treats his children (and children in general) is a big part of who he is, but his own father Lord Rickard was quite different. In many ways, Ned's upbringing was not at all typical for a Stark, and those differences played a large role in Robert's Rebellion and A Song of Ice and Fire. We explore Ned's early life with his family at Winterfell, then in the Vale with Robert, Jon Arryn and many others.

The isle of Naath is unique and unlike anything we’ve seen in the Known World, populated by extreme pacifists. However, their island is naath for the faint of heart, as it is also populated by extremely poisonous butterflies.

A place so rich Catelyn calls their wealth "fabled". They have so much food they supplied... all of King's Landing(!) It's said to grow directly out of the land and is considered the most beautiful castle in the realm. We discuss which POV's might go there, the ancient history and lore, that time it was burned (could that happen again?!) and quite a bit more.

A most mysterious but compelling character. A voracious reader who was highly intelligent, the most sought-after bachelorette of her era... and possibly a bit cruel. She could have married any man she wanted, but never did. We seek to answer or at least discuss: what kinds of magic did she practice? did she know about the prophecy of the Others? how did she feel about her brothers fighting the Blackfyre Rebellions? why did she remain single? what connections did she have to Lys? and what was her ultimate fate?
