Not First Men: Pale-Haired Coastal Houses of Dawn Age Westeros | ASOIAF Theory & Analysis 

Daynes are such a great weird house! Also, there are 2 other houses I think they were not first men, but I will give them a video at some point.

SYMBOLISM 👁️👄👁️

It would be easier to list what he doesn’t reference.

Man of culture!

@@romainc6457 Absolutely!

That or Dorkstar

[flips hair]

whole heartedly agree, should be obligatory like se crispy

@@SingingSealRiana You mean Ser Christmas Cole?

Batman

A bear! A bear! A bear and the maiden fair!

Yes! There was an inland sea at Dorne also. I am making a pre-hammer map for an upcoming video.

Tbh, the throne is a quite wtf part of the story for me too. Yes, there is a lot of metaphorical and symbolical stuff going on, and it doesn't look like valyrian steel, but some of the blades do act like Valyrian steel, they do not rust, still very sharp and stuff. I am waiting more for this tbh, bc I think something might be oof as well.

@@CompanyOfTheCat I was listening to fire and blood again. What do you think about the Iron Throne being just magical enough to curse a person? Maybe it cursed people by cutting them. Like Meagor and Aerys, Viserys,, even Rheneyra.

I am always open for theories and ideas, since they help me too!!!

Love this!

Yes! Galladon is the Andal story of the Last Hero, of Azor Ahai of Huzor Amai and all the figures with magical swords.

@CompanyOfTheCat it's fun but maddening trying to figure out which elements we should look at more closely or as fact and which we should disregard. Plus how all these houses are connected. The mountains of morne by the five forts is suspicious as well.

@@christianedwards6364 I think that many things are there to draw the parallels but are not necessarily connected. Kinda how we have many similarities between characters in the current timeline but are not the same person or connected exactly. If someone asks for example 10 people around the universe who is Azor Ahai we will get different answers. Mel says Stannis, the Volantene say Dany, and smallfolk tell stories about Beric that if someone in the future listens to them easily could say "Oh, he was Azor Ahai", I think similar things happened in the previous Long Night thus the stories are everywhere with common stuff, but it also don't make that much sense to be for the same person or area.

Glad you're enjoying the content, but without LmL and Amanda from the Disputed Lands I doubt this channel would exist. I'm a big fan of theirs and many of my theories came while watching their videos 😂

Through the summer islands probably, they switched direction after something like they others did. If martin says no one has crossed it, them I believe him tbh.

@@CompanyOfTheCat That's really odd then. Seems a bit weird for him to include the bit about Sunchaser being in Asshai if not as proof that she reached the East. But I guess if he explicitly stated that *no one* crossed the Ocean, then she didn't.

@@henrikfitch4017 It's not about sun chaser explicitly. It's the part that I included in the video, that is from the citadel in his answers about Asshai. His quote was this "No one has ever crossed the Sunset Sea to learn what lies on the other side."

@@CompanyOfTheCat abnd what comes before that in context

I am guessing kind of both, but being honorable and moral more that skilled, mostly because (and correct me if I am wrong, I am not 100% sure), Dawn boosts your skills any way. GRRM had said that Arthur Dayne would beat Barristan with dawn, but without who knows, or a tie, or something, when asked who would have won in a fight between the two.

The part on the neck didn't have marshes at that point though. As far as we know, the Sarnori were their descendants, and I think the Rhoynars were too.

Ι will answer pretty much the same things I said to another person who also said it is out of context. Looking at the whole conversation and how he answered, it is not out of context, imo. When someone is asked about trade, and the answer is "No, they do not use this route, because no one has crossed it to know what is going on", etc, it means exactly that, that they have zero idea what is going on. Them not knowing anything about it, means that full-on migrations happening from there is very very VERY improbable because people haven't crossed it. They would have more cohesive myths, stories, anything really, but they don't. We also do not have individuals who confirmed they reached it, the closest is Elissa's story, but it is still so vague that doesn't prove anything. We do not know what happened in the meantime, how do we know they didn't change direction? Considering that in this same quote, GRRM says the classic routes from west to east and *other facts about Planetos like its shape*, I think is anything but out of context. People passing is possible in theory, that is a fact, people have already passed it in the thousands like it is happening in migrations is not a fact and looks very improbable with the info we have. Even with Elissa, it is not confirmed, we do not know anything, it is only a speculation., and considering this video is talking about migrations, I stand by the fact that it looks very much unsupported to say that whole ethnic groups came from there, when even in their myths things contradict each other. Is there any trade between Westeros and Asshai over the Sunset Sea, or are those uncharted waters? Over the =Sunset= Sea? No. *No one has ever crossed the Sunset Sea to learn what lies on the other side*. The question was about trading routes, but the answer was very much general. It is even added as a piece of information by the moderators, who are the same people as in the citadel, in Wikia.

Hot with hawk noses? I'm down 💅🏻
