The actor really tried. I think if the script hadn't been total shit, he could have pulled it off. I bet dude even thought he could go all out super unhinged and all he got was a finger in the bumb. Kind of like how Hayden Christensen did as well as he could as Anakin. Fucking no one could have pulled off either characters with that horrible script

Dany is still more or less a child, has a weakness for pretty boys, and Euron is known for being good at manipulating people, especially young women (eg Falia Flowers, who is very close to Dany in age, and her fate may reflect Dany’s fate if she allows her teenage girl brain to lead her to trust Euron

If the Great empire of the Dawn was indeed a dragon empire, then it makes sense that they married brother to sister, just as the Valyrians did. This would mean that the amethyst empress and the bloodstone emperor aren't only siblings, they're married. Meaning Nissa Nissa was indeed the wife of Azor Ahai.
@kevinmartinez3500

Small Point: Euron wants to marry Dany, who is parallel to the amethyst empress. The amethyst empress was killed by her brother. Valyrians marry brother to sister.

Yes the parallels line up pretty well. And the conclusion would be that Euron wants Dany to use her for blood magic, a la Nissa Nissa / Amethyst Empress

I've been reading Lovecraft and this passage slapped me in the face: "...[Cthulhu statues] yielded simultaneous pictures of an octopus, a dragon, and a human caricature [...] A pulpy, tentacled head surmounted a grotesque and scaly body with rudimentary wings." Call of Cthulhu. I've been aware of Cthulhu for ages from pop culture exposure, but never the descriptive association with dragons. I think Euron's metaphorical (or metatextual goal) is to wake/summon Cthulhu by wedding the Kraken with the Dragon. Not that we are going to see the guy, but I think the plot is GRRM winking at him.

@AverageAwesomeDude
@AverageAwesomeDude 3 года назад
Agreed I always thought it one of the creepiest things in asoiaf, more so cause I can imagine someone in history doing something like this. Like sure euron is terrifying and kinda full of magic but the Silence creeped me out cause it was the most non magical part about him. Just a boat that is horrifying just by reputation which it lives up to. It’s literally a ship sailed by eurons little cruelties (little in comparison), he cut their tongues because the noise irritated him, it’s painted red not to have to wash the bloodshed. By itself the ship is nightmare fuel but it’s one of the smallest aspects of Euron which given the rest of him just raises his entire character to new levels of terrifying

Euron is my most anticipated plotline. I blame humanity's natural morbid curiosity, but I'm also intensely intrigued by the history and magic (leading to potential godhood) that Euron is wrapped up in. He is worldbuilding, in a sense. I think he'll show the limits of magic and power in ASOIAF.

What really nails it for me is Mel, she sees truthful visions in her flames, but is just terrible at working out what they actually mean. She says, "When the red star bleeds and the darkness gathers, Azor Ahai shall be born again amidst smoke and salt to wake dragons out of stone." As you mentioned, the red star has bled, Euron is literally gathered darkness (in all his finery), his armour is described as being like smoke, and he's sailing on literal salt with a horn that binds dragons ... if he doesn't claim one of the three known ones, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he managed to wake one up from some lump of oily black stone (perhaps under the stones of a certain High Tower)

I felt that the show runners decided to forego the Greyjoy storyline early in the series and when faced with it playing a major role in the outcome of the finale (similar to how they ignored Dorne for the shows entirety and then attempted to shoehorn it in, in a way that made no sense) they decided to make the Night King take the role of what Euron would become in the books, as you mention. Early Euron I feel was truly a weird hybrid of Victarion himself and then in the last seasons became just a weird sad Victarion.

To the idea that Azor Ahai is villain, i would suggest that he was a person who did horrible stuff, because he believed it will save the world from a prophesized Apocolypse, but eventually caused it through his actions. Because in the Story the Azor Ahai Prophecy is linked with Melisandre influence over Stannis and his people and how her prophecy Brings his cause on dark path

My personal pet theory is that Theon and Euron’s arcs are parallel. Both defy the intentions of the Ironborn, invade sacred ground shall we say, play with forces much greater than they can control with far too high ambitions. Hopefully that means Euron will become the Others’ “Reek” in the end.

I figure the Valyrians (and the various other dragonlord descendants) were descendants of the Amethyst empress. Before the bloodstone emperor usurped the throne and brought in the long night. So the parallel will be Danyerys conquers Westeros, Euron usurps her, long night starts again, Jon takes it back from Euron. Oh also Pirates are fine parallels to Kings. Each captain is King on their ship. So its not as much a stretch as you make it seem.

Also Valyrians loved their brother and sister matches. So Azor Ahai and Nissa Nissa were probably related. And since I also believe that Ths Bloodstone Emperor was Azor Ahai he must have been in a marriage (albeit an unhappy one, like Aerys and Rhaella) with his sister, The Amethyst Empress. I think they also parallel Rhaenyra and her brother Aegon. They were not a couple but like the Amethyst Empress, Rhaenyra was chosen as her father's heir and her brother Aegon killed her to get the throne. And it ushered the end of dragons.

I see lots of people comparing Euron to the Joker, I'm not a Joker expert but they really seem different, the Joker seem like a radical nihilist, totaly enjoying chaos and destruction. Whilst Euron isn't a nihilist, he is very egotistical, he wants power, and the chaos he causes seems to be collateral. But I might be wrong x)

Do you think it’s possible that the people of Ashai taught the Valyrians the art of dragon riding so they could be ready for the next long night? Why would they have just gone over and taught random people the art of controlling and riding dragons? Maybe they were trying to ensure that what happened to them would be prevented or stopped before it got too bad?
@DavidLightbringer
@DavidLightbringer 3 года назад
Well my answer for that is basically the Great Empire of the Dawn: Dragonlords of Ancient Asshai video. I think the Valyrian ancestors were actually descendants or even refugees from Asshai, essentially.

It's a trope that calls for GRRM to crush. I think he'll get a nuke to the face and burn in his fancy armor. He’s a fish who wants to be part of a world he once glimpsed when he bit a bait not intended for him and was thrown back into the sea. He’s going to jump out of the waters, right into a frying pan. -Team Victarion

Right, especially when you observe the way that Martin takes basic natural phenomenon and uses it to create magic, such as with obsidian, or the Doom being a magical volcano that leaves a magical fallout zone unlike a natural volcano. So yeah, impact winter from moon meteors as a basic mechanism, but magic meteors and magic moons and all ice demons.

Like this guy said, there are similarities between Euron and Aurion heading to places of knowledge/power to carve out their empires. But what if it doesn't stop there? A lot of people talk about what Euron's next move is going to be. Yet no one considers if he will be alive to do anything after this. What if Euron dies when he commits his mass sacrifice and blows his Dragonbinder, in an attempt at attaining godhood that completely backfires, like Aurion's attempt to become emperor of the remnants of Valyria? I also find it funny that if the theory that Rhoynar magic had a hand in causing the Doom of Valyria has a chance to be the real explanation, then Euron's use of magic that could spell the doom via the Wall coming down would be a historical repetition of the past.

@brianlowe904
@brianlowe904 4 года назад
I think one of my favorite aspects of Martins writing is his use of myths and archetypes to expand on his story and themes. Like how the azor ahai myth can be interpreted in many ways and not to jump the gun I think this is personified in the many different people that fit that archetype. On one hand you have the “last hero” side of the myth, the heroic visage of a man wielding a flaming sword to save the world from the night that never ends. While on the other hand you have the evil nights king incarnation of the character who lml has pointed out(possibly) needlessly killed his wife for the sake of power, making someone else pay the price for magic when it was his price to play. Euron is most clearly this latter version of the myth and maybe an unpopular opinion but I think stannis will lean towards this side if he does indeed sacrifice his daughter. On the heroic side you have jon and dany that are the incarnation of the last hero expression of the archetype. I don’t think that need much explanation. Watching all of lml stuff I’m almost convinced that there is no one azor ahai but many expressions of the same idea and the prophecy fitting so many people is perhaps the point
@DavidLightbringer
@DavidLightbringer 4 года назад
for sure... and the more I think about Euron as a third head of the dragon and the incarnation of AA that most closely matches the original villain character... it just fits
@brianlowe904
@brianlowe904 4 года назад
Lucifer means Lightbringer I also believe this ties into the idea that dany won’t god mad. I think it would go against the general lesson that the azor ahai myth is going for, that sacrifice is required but it should be the person who is making the choice that should sacrifice. So it wouldn’t make sense that dany would start burning total innocence. I think more line would be dany making a needed sacrifice that history wouldn’t like too kindly on and its Jon who take that fall because he believes in dany’s vision. Assuming the show had any truth in what happened. I mean at that point Jon would be an undead possibly frozen ice and fire zombie while dany would be the breaker of chains freer of slaves.
@Mmu12059
@Mmu12059 9 месяцев назад
I'd never considered Euron larping as a Valyrian enough to make him fit the role of a dragonlord in the vein of Azor Ahai, but if the theories in your latest series hold, almost all Ironborn noble houses have distant Great Empire ancestry. Even if the Greyjoys don't have direct dragonlord ancestry per se, Euron then at least has a somewhat legitimate claim to the cultural mantle he's draped himself in. This on top of the fact that he's a skinchanger also makes him a perfect dark parallel to Jon. His role in the wider story then makes a whole lot more sense, but this also means that the Ironborn in general are fulfilling a poetically symmetrical role in it as well, instead of just being cool window dressing, which is what they ended up being in the show.

11:12 "He sure is trying to dress up like a Valyrian" I feel like "the folly of pretenders" is Author's Exhibit A for the core theme of "Facing Winter [challenges, fear of death] means growing up [forsaking comforting lies/childish stories]." The prologue ends with Royce honoring himself as a man (of TNW), not a child, by standing against winter. The story then starts with Bran going to witness the execution of the deserter, who failed to be a man (of TNW) and ran from his true duty, pretending he could escape death. Bran had to see that he was wrong, specifically to prepare him for the end of childhood/winter. All these pale pretenders, attempting to escape the inevitability of death: Euron, and the pale "Undying" Warlocks he got his blue tint from. "Aegon," who's likewise *dyed* blue and ought to have died, but came back from across the water with suspiciously miraculous timing. WW magic of both the White Walker and Weirwoodnet variety are literally Childrens' attempts to avoid death, cursing them to eternal undeath.

I also find it fascinating how the entire Azor Ahai myth seems to be surrounded by infertility. All the women associated with Azor Ahai figures have problems bearing children. Dalla of the wildlings, Selyse Baratheon, Elia Martell, and of course Dany herself. The only exception to that is the Night's Queen, if your theory is correct. Euron sacrificing his pregnant salt-wife kind of reinforces that Azor Ahai and fertility are not a good match...
