Vasya, Solovey, And Some Faceless Chyerti From The Winternight Trilogy By Katherine Arden.

Vasya, Solovey, and some faceless chyerti from The Winternight Trilogy by Katherine Arden. 

Although it’s a mess, I did refer to depictions of Ivan Tsarevich by Viktor Vasnetzov and Ivan Bilibin late in the process.

back on my daenrya bullshit

In this house we hate Jorah Mormont.

The hypocrisy of that man, talking about Smallfolks as if he cares for them while knowing he sold some of the same people he is talking about in slavery.

He is like: it is no matter to them if high lords play theirs game of thrones as long as they are left in peace, they never are.

And then the next Dany chapter he called some of the same people he actually enslaved because they had the audacity to try and hunt in his territory for food in his territory: "lice ridden poachers".

His hatred of Ned is also because he got caught and was stopped actually doing slavery and that's without talking about the way he treats Daenerys.

And now I want him dead, what a creep.

Interviewer: What inspired the Starks? The Stark family in A Game of Thrones was just marvelous!

George: Well, that's a difficult question to answer. I think, partially, I wanted to do a book about a family. I’ve written a lot of novels and I realize that for the most part, the heroes of those novels, the protagonists, are always loners. They're young people who are unattached, or they are older people who have never made attachments. Abner Marsh from Fevre Dream, is a loner, Dirk t'Larien, in Dying of the Light, is a loner. So I thought it would be interesting to tackle a family unit for once.
