Black Walder is hard as fuck “ nasty bit of business that one” Hosteen Black Walder and Walder rivers are easily in the top 15 warriors of Westeros during WO5K
I have a lot of empathy for the Freys. Maybe it’s because I too was raised by an abusive parent. People seem to forget how the other houses in GOT constantly dehumanize the Freys. They do not see them as people, as peers or as worthwhile. Throughout the entire book series whenever they are mentioned, people are attacking their looks, their abilities, their counsel. They are constantly being used and lied to by other houses. How many times has Catelyn Stark made mock of their looks, or speak ill of Lord Walder, and she even admitted her own father did the same which probably prompted the late Lord Walder incident. Edmure Tully, who isn’t much of anything, insulted Lothar and Martyn Rivers. Claiming they weren’t good enough to be in his presence because one had a bad leg, the other was baseborn. Robb Stark lied to them in order to cross and have Frey men die for him. Rather than keep his promises, he screwed some woman who was put up to it by her ambitious mother. And rather than take responsibility, he wanted to use the Freys again, and his uncle was the one who had to make it up for him. People also forget how all the other houses, especially the Starks, have done countless evils in the world, yet their honour and nobility are never questioned or tarnished. Why? Because the Freys are hard working common people who raised themselves up into riches and nobility, and these other houses are classist and arrogant. The Freys acted no different than any other house did before them, which is mentioned quite a few times throughout the books by many different characters. It makes sense that people who are constantly being spat on would act hostile.
@@alexandermendez4653 Rob looked the other way when his mother betrayed everyone releasing the kingslayer, but killed lord karstark when he killed some lanisters, then he married an enemy's daughter!!he was not honorable at all,
Black Walder has always been one of my favorite Freys. Dude is a badass unlike most of his cowardly cousins. He has got to have some Bracken in his blood because of how he's described. I wish George had added a prince charming kind of Frey that serves as the antithesis to Black Walder and goes against all of the Frey stereotypes. Perhaps an "Rhaegar Targaryen" type of Frey that everyone likes and wants to be heir and Black Walder treats as his rival. White Walder vs Black Walder.
Isn't funny that the Northmen at the red wedding cheer for Robb Stark and Queen Jeyne, and then have the nerve to act surprised the Freys betrayed them. Not a good idea to to rub salt in Frey's wounds by cheering for Jeyne. Isn't it funny how the northmen don't even care that Robb Stark broke his oath to Frey, then have the nerve to demand Frey be "honorable?" and uphold guest right. LOL, Red Wedding was Robb's own doing, he should have kept his oath rather then screw over the Freys, who made a total 1/3 of his army to march on Moat Caelin.
Thank you! You can always tell who didn’t read the books, as they are the ones who shit on the Freys while ignoring the wrongs committed against them from other houses. Every other house spits on the Freys, uses them constantly and retracts their promises to them. Robb Stark was a piece of shit. And so was Edmure and Catelin herself. The funniest part is, Stark had no clue whatsoever he was set up by Jeyne’s family. Lol some king.
@@ExploringFiction He will need to marry and get a true born son eventualy. But dam I hope Walder doesnt die soon this guy sounds like even more pure evil.
