1
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:14,100
And toss or pentose if you 
prefer it rhymes with Mentos the

2
00:00:14,100 --> 00:00:16,200
nearest free City to King's 
Landing. 

3
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:20,100
It's often embroiled in 
westerosi politics as a result. 

4
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:23,500
It's the go-to location for 
Exiles or at least the first 

5
00:00:23,500 --> 00:00:25,900
stop on their way to a fuller 
Exile. 

6
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:30,500
It's arguably surpassed Ty Roch 
as the new home of Black, fire 

7
00:00:30,500 --> 00:00:34,100
conspiracies, connington young 
Griff, the golden company not to

8
00:00:34,100 --> 00:00:37,800
mention Danny and viserys Tyrion
goes through there as an exile 

9
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:39,400
Danny's first chapters were 
there. 

10
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,300
Of course, it's where her Arc 
starts as, is her marriage to 

11
00:00:42,300 --> 00:00:45,100
Khal Drogo. 
We have some thoughts on that. 

12
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:51,000
Of course, it housed Meg, or for
a time then Damon and Lena, 

13
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,900
Bela, and Rayna, and all their 
dragons. 

14
00:00:54,300 --> 00:00:57,800
The list doesn't stop there. 
The proximity to Westeros has 

15
00:00:57,800 --> 00:00:59,800
given us a lot of recent history
to play with. 

16
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,000
But Penthouse has a rich ancient
history as well involving 

17
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:08,000
valyria and dolls and other 
lesser known perhaps 

18
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,700
Supernatural elements. 
But just the combination of 

19
00:01:10,700 --> 00:01:13,400
valyria and analyzation is 
really unique. 

20
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,900
The region around the area is 
compelling and filled with fun 

21
00:01:16,900 --> 00:01:19,900
tales and anecdotes from Wars 
with their neighbors, to the 

22
00:01:19,900 --> 00:01:23,200
pair of valerian sphinxes, along
the dragon Road, the going and 

23
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,900
row which brings us to what some
of you will find most compelling

24
00:01:26,900 --> 00:01:30,400
of all, how pentose plays into 
the story, as the place where 

25
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,300
Danny's Arc begins, you best 
believe her story is coming back

26
00:01:33,300 --> 00:01:35,200
through there. 
It's a stepping stone away from 

27
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,600
Westeros but also the way back 
to it to go forward. 

28
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:43,800
You must go back is a motto of 
Danny's Arc and well, it's a bit

29
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,100
for shadowy, in this case, I 
think two events seem to be 

30
00:01:47,100 --> 00:01:50,100
culminating there. 
So even if you even without 

31
00:01:50,100 --> 00:01:51,900
that, we would have thought 
she'd go back there. 

32
00:01:51,900 --> 00:01:55,300
But there's a lot of other 
things happening on there as 

33
00:01:55,300 --> 00:01:57,300
well. 
Whether it's a reckoning for 

34
00:01:57,300 --> 00:02:01,700
illyrio or the city itself, Self
or maybe the tattered, Prince 

35
00:02:01,700 --> 00:02:05,300
seizes the city and maybe the 
Reckoning comes for pentos 

36
00:02:05,300 --> 00:02:07,800
before Danny even gets there. 
And thus, it will be something 

37
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,900
like the double Reckoning. 
Well, we've got all that and 

38
00:02:11,900 --> 00:02:15,500
more on this episode of history 
of Westeros podcast. 

39
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:22,500
Hello and welcome everybody back
for another episode, a heavily 

40
00:02:22,500 --> 00:02:27,900
seasoned world-building episode,
but this one probably more plot 

41
00:02:27,900 --> 00:02:30,700
oriented than some of the free 
cities. 

42
00:02:30,700 --> 00:02:33,500
We haven't covered all the free 
cities yet, you know, braavos is

43
00:02:33,500 --> 00:02:40,000
big volantis as well, but pain, 
tosses probably got as much to 

44
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,500
do with the main story as any of
them if not more. 

45
00:02:42,500 --> 00:02:46,500
So some of that remains to be 
seen, of course, we'll talk 

46
00:02:46,500 --> 00:02:48,300
about all of Of that today. 
Sean. 

47
00:02:48,300 --> 00:02:50,300
How's it going? 
I know your leg is still really 

48
00:02:50,300 --> 00:02:52,800
bothering you. 
Your we appreciate you being 

49
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,200
able to do this while being in 
such pain. 

50
00:02:55,300 --> 00:02:58,300
Are you drinking anything to 
help you out there? 

51
00:02:58,300 --> 00:03:02,500
Any milk of the poppy or milk of
the Almond or milk of the oat or

52
00:03:02,500 --> 00:03:06,400
anything like that? 
Had the naked protein tree, 

53
00:03:06,500 --> 00:03:09,900
which is kind of creamy. 
And there's also this V8 B has a

54
00:03:09,908 --> 00:03:12,400
slender fruit juices. 
One is pomegranate blueberry 

55
00:03:12,700 --> 00:03:14,600
what can I mix those together 
with the dr. 

56
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,600
Pepper it was like a float. 
It first. 

57
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,400
It's a little bit. 
Orbis Brown homogenize. 

58
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,300
So kind of creamy, we'll call it
milk of dr. 

59
00:03:22,300 --> 00:03:27,400
Pepper, I can see, there's like 
a purple bit of the bottom, 

60
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,000
like, it's definitely separated 
like some weird. 

61
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,300
Chemistry experiment there. 
Yeah. 

62
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,000
Taking some Ibuprofen. 
And Tylenol. 

63
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,300
And I've got, you know, I might 
win server known and, but I'm 

64
00:03:37,300 --> 00:03:40,700
abilities in proving. 
I'm determined to get. 

65
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,400
Not, just get back on my feet. 
Get back Dancing. 

66
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:43,800
Yeah. 
Well, we're all pulling for you.

67
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,100
Every single one of us, I'm sure
go Sean. 

68
00:03:47,100 --> 00:03:51,200
Shout out to our good friend 
Nina, who had a question on her 

69
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,500
blog? 
That's somewhat relevant to 

70
00:03:53,500 --> 00:03:57,400
actually quite relevant today. 
The question is related to 

71
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:02,700
parallels between Ned and how he
handles Jon Snow versus illyrio 

72
00:04:02,700 --> 00:04:08,100
and how he handles breath. 
Both have allegedly Aloha. 

73
00:04:08,100 --> 00:04:11,200
The child of a loved one in 
their possession. 

74
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,700
Basically in their care and 
handle it very differently. 

75
00:04:14,700 --> 00:04:16,700
Its both, both these children 
have a claim to the throne 

76
00:04:16,899 --> 00:04:20,399
Thrown to the iron throne but 
one well we're not entirely sure

77
00:04:20,399 --> 00:04:23,500
what earlier is up to, but it 
seems to be more about ambition 

78
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:28,600
of whereas Ned was trying to 
protect the child very, very 

79
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,700
different approaches. 
So that's a, that's a great 

80
00:04:31,500 --> 00:04:34,300
observation by Nina and you're 
going to want to read it at 

81
00:04:34,300 --> 00:04:36,600
good. 
Queen Ali, dot tumblr.com. 

82
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,800
That's one Al and Ali just like 
Alice and yeah. 

83
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,100
And of course she has a lot of 
notes in our episode today is 

84
00:04:43,100 --> 00:04:46,700
she so often, does great takes 
on pentos and illyrio and the 

85
00:04:46,900 --> 00:04:48,400
These other characters that are 
involved. 

86
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,300
This episode was voted on by 
patrons. 

87
00:04:51,500 --> 00:04:53,900
Next week, is not was not voted 
on by patrons. 

88
00:04:53,900 --> 00:04:55,200
It's going to be a scripted 
episode. 

89
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,600
It's going to be available for 
patrons and subscribers only, 

90
00:04:58,300 --> 00:05:02,600
which you can still get in on, 
on our special offer deal to 

91
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,900
sign up for patreon. 
A two dollar level before it 

92
00:05:04,900 --> 00:05:09,400
goes away, you know it's worth 
noting that we had our first 

93
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,800
Whiplash hangout session which 
is something that you unlock by 

94
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,700
being a patron. 
We must have had like 10 people.

95
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,600
It's paiting, it was a good 
time. 

96
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,600
We played some games, we 
streamed it to the Facebook 

97
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,200
page. 
Yeah, we had now you can 

98
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,500
participate in those without 
being a patron, but you as an 

99
00:05:26,500 --> 00:05:29,300
audit as as part of the audience
audience participation, we had 

100
00:05:29,300 --> 00:05:31,400
about an equal number of people.
They're hanging out in boating 

101
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:35,000
on the funniest answers and 
that's a great time as well. 

102
00:05:35,900 --> 00:05:39,100
I played in and won all three 
games, equip black. 

103
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,700
All of you that were, there have
no way to verify that, he's not 

104
00:05:43,700 --> 00:05:47,500
laughing at that. 
True Was there. 

105
00:05:47,500 --> 00:05:50,400
It's so funny that I would be so
bragi about it because usually, 

106
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:55,500
I'm so hungry. 
If the episode ends and you're 

107
00:05:55,500 --> 00:05:59,200
still wanting to stay in the 
world, I created by George r.r. 

108
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,100
Martin, we've got you covered 
plenty of other episodes that 

109
00:06:03,100 --> 00:06:08,000
could bolts you into similar 
locations, and places will start

110
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,300
with our trivia question as we 
so often, do the pentoshi 

111
00:06:11,300 --> 00:06:17,300
historian /, political actor, 
jzo Herodotus Wrote a book 

112
00:06:17,300 --> 00:06:20,400
called before the dragons, a 
title that we've used that 

113
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,700
claimed pentos and another city 
were actually founded before the

114
00:06:23,700 --> 00:06:26,200
Freehold. 
What other city does? 

115
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,300
Jesse? 
Oh, name alongside pentose as 

116
00:06:28,700 --> 00:06:33,800
predating valyria, yes. 
Yes, the first mention of 

117
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,300
pentos, we often like to start 
with that. 

118
00:06:36,300 --> 00:06:39,600
Again, I want to know. 
Do you say pentos or pentos? 

119
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,600
It's not as big a pronunciation 
debate as Celtic Arkell cigar 

120
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,000
but I am curious what you all 
would say Say, I think it's 

121
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:52,000
pentos and my reasoning is that 
it would have a second s if it 

122
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,300
wasn't us that, assuming normal 
phonetic rules that which we 

123
00:06:55,300 --> 00:06:57,700
can't necessarily assume, but 
that's my, that's a reasonable 

124
00:06:57,700 --> 00:06:58,500
argument. 
Yeah. 

125
00:06:58,500 --> 00:07:00,400
Okay. 
I say zebra. 

126
00:07:02,900 --> 00:07:04,800
Interesting. 
Yeah, I say it's Deborah. 

127
00:07:04,900 --> 00:07:08,100
No no, I don't except for That's
Unique set of phonetic rules 

128
00:07:08,100 --> 00:07:11,100
there. 
Say passages I pronounce it 

129
00:07:11,100 --> 00:07:16,100
Janowski. okay, so the first 
mention comes very early on 

130
00:07:16,100 --> 00:07:19,300
because it's where we meet Dani 
and her verse chapter along with

131
00:07:19,300 --> 00:07:22,300
the Sarah's called rogo and 
illyrio who is the only one of 

132
00:07:22,300 --> 00:07:26,300
those who's actually from 
pendants A gift from the 

133
00:07:26,300 --> 00:07:29,100
Magister illyrio, the series set
smiling. 

134
00:07:29,300 --> 00:07:31,500
Her brother was in a high mood 
tonight. 

135
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,200
The color will bring out the 
Violet in your eyes and you have

136
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,900
gold as well. 
Jewels of All Sorts why I was 

137
00:07:37,900 --> 00:07:42,300
promised tonight, you must look 
like a princess, a princess, 

138
00:07:42,300 --> 00:07:46,600
Danny thought she had forgotten 
what that was like, perhaps she 

139
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:50,800
had never really known. 
Why does he give us so much? 

140
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,200
She asked, what does he want 
from us? 

141
00:07:53,700 --> 00:07:57,000
Her nigh on half a year, they 
had lived in the magisters 

142
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:01,000
house, eating his food hampered 
by his servants. 

143
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:05,800
Danny was 13 old enough to know 
that such gifts seldom come 

144
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:11,100
without their price here in the 
free city of pentos saris older 

145
00:08:11,100 --> 00:08:15,400
than 13 was not old enough to 
know that such gifts rubber band

146
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,600
without the price Danny quickly.
I mean its immediate right away 

147
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:23,200
how much smarter Danny is and 
viserys so it's a great quote 

148
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,800
show Thing that she's way ahead 
in terms of Just The Way of the 

149
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,700
World, intuition human nature. 
Lots of other things, too. 

150
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,400
It's also a great sort of pun 
need two points out. 

151
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,000
It's the first example of a 
quote unquote free City with 

152
00:08:36,100 --> 00:08:39,400
nothing is given for free here, 
as we're just told like that 

153
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,799
doesn't even get into our 
recurring discussion on slavery,

154
00:08:42,799 --> 00:08:45,400
in the free cities, which is a 
little different here in pentos 

155
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,600
in some ways, it's very much the
same, but in some ways, it's 

156
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:49,700
not. 
So we'll get into that. 

157
00:08:50,300 --> 00:08:52,800
So this is very close to coming 
all the way back around again, 

158
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,200
as I said in, The intro, Danny's
Arc is returning her to pentos, 

159
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:57,800
and there may be a reckoning 
sort. 

160
00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:59,600
So, more to come on that as we 
work our way through the 

161
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,500
timeline and make a little 
observation here. 

162
00:09:02,500 --> 00:09:07,200
I think that some of Danny's 
awareness versus Bucyrus is not.

163
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,200
I mean, not that she isn't 
smarter than him but I think 

164
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,700
it's at least as much that he's 
more self-absorbed than she is. 

165
00:09:13,700 --> 00:09:14,700
Yeah. 
And maybe a little more 

166
00:09:14,700 --> 00:09:18,000
single-minded, he has this sort 
of mission, get back to the 

167
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:19,000
throne. 
Right. 

168
00:09:19,100 --> 00:09:22,300
And he's very, you know, full of
himself people, where she 

169
00:09:22,300 --> 00:09:24,700
doesn't have a mission. 
She just You're going along and 

170
00:09:24,700 --> 00:09:27,700
she doesn't have the same sort 
of arrogancy he has. 

171
00:09:27,700 --> 00:09:29,800
So she's absorbing more 
different things rather than 

172
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,300
just what he wants and needs 
here. 

173
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:35,400
And I think that you might see 
elements of this throughout her 

174
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,400
courts, right? 
That she has this idea of 

175
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,200
getting back to her home and her
iron throne. 

176
00:09:40,500 --> 00:09:43,900
But she's more aware of the 
other problems in these cities 

177
00:09:43,900 --> 00:09:46,400
to slavery since she's not so 
single-minded. 

178
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,300
She has more different things to
be concerned about slavery and 

179
00:09:50,300 --> 00:09:52,800
Justice of these different 
cities for better or worse. 

180
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:57,400
Is If she can stay that way, it 
might keep her on this. 

181
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,800
Mission of righteousness might 
keep her from getting to the 

182
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,400
Iron Throne, if you're which 
isn't necessarily the best thing

183
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:03,500
in the first place. 
I don't know, we'll see. 

184
00:10:03,500 --> 00:10:05,800
But yeah. 
Also certainly got my attention.

185
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,700
I might be worse than fought. 
The second to last mention of 

186
00:10:08,700 --> 00:10:10,800
Pentecost, in the entire series.
Here we go. 

187
00:10:11,500 --> 00:10:15,600
Supper was for language lessons.
The blind girl, understood 

188
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,100
braavosi and could speak it 
passably. 

189
00:10:18,300 --> 00:10:22,200
She had even lost most of her 
barbaric accent, but the kindly 

190
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:26,300
man was not He was insisting 
that she improve her High 

191
00:10:26,300 --> 00:10:29,100
Valyrian and learn the tongues 
of lease. 

192
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,100
And pentose to this could simply
be part of her education. 

193
00:10:33,100 --> 00:10:35,100
This is Aria of course we're 
talking about well as you can 

194
00:10:35,100 --> 00:10:38,900
probably tell by the blind girl 
learn lots of languages but it's

195
00:10:38,900 --> 00:10:41,700
interesting that 10 tosses 
mentioned specifically I may be 

196
00:10:41,700 --> 00:10:46,100
reading too much into it but I 
wonder what's that about. 

197
00:10:46,100 --> 00:10:48,600
Maybe they have plans for her to
go there or if it's just part of

198
00:10:48,608 --> 00:10:51,400
her education, like I said but 
the fact that it's mentioned 

199
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:55,100
specifically is curious Of 
course, learning High Valyrian 

200
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,300
leads to the other languages, 
pentos and lice any. 

201
00:10:58,300 --> 00:11:02,300
Those are just off shoots 
bastardized dialects. 

202
00:11:02,300 --> 00:11:05,900
You could say of High Valyrian. 
I think you could say maybe High

203
00:11:05,900 --> 00:11:10,800
Valyrian is like Latin and toss.
Might be Italian go kosher. 

204
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,600
Yeah. 
I beat ya French or whatever. 

205
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,600
Maybe even a little closer. 
But yeah, that's a great. 

206
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,000
That's a great parallel. 
I like that. 

207
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,800
I don't think we mentioned this 
and least because Lisa is also 

208
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:22,100
probably Penthouse is close to 
Bravo's so that you can almost 

209
00:11:22,100 --> 00:11:22,900
see. 
That makes more sense. 

210
00:11:22,900 --> 00:11:26,700
Least has a Either way, so I'm 
not sure but maybe yeah it could

211
00:11:26,700 --> 00:11:31,400
be just a clue about what where 
the Faceless Men have their 

212
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,800
attention or something about 
their future. 

213
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,500
Anyway, one of the reasons it 
during to is it reminds us that 

214
00:11:37,500 --> 00:11:38,600
Penthouse has their own 
language. 

215
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,600
That's a nice reminder and 
lysine, if we continue this 

216
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:46,900
comparison, it's more Valerian 
because it's more Valerian. 

217
00:11:46,900 --> 00:11:51,800
Like the city of lease is deeper
Origins with malaria. 

218
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,600
Now, they're both rule, they 
were the ruled by valyria. 

219
00:11:55,100 --> 00:12:00,300
But pentose was mingled a lot 
with the locals who were mostly 

220
00:12:00,300 --> 00:12:04,300
and dolls and other races that 
have now been forgotten. 

221
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,600
And it wasn't founded by the 
elite. 

222
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:14,100
It was founded more by 
middle-class, folks as a trading

223
00:12:14,100 --> 00:12:16,300
colonies. 
Oh they don't care as much about

224
00:12:16,300 --> 00:12:19,400
the Highborn blood or there just
isn't as much there to be cared 

225
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:23,300
about and that's really relevant
for a lot of reasons that will 

226
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:28,500
come up throughout this episode.
Basically all the dialects of 

227
00:12:28,500 --> 00:12:31,700
High Valyrian or can be lumped 
into a category called bastard 

228
00:12:31,700 --> 00:12:34,100
Valyrian. 
Which yeah kind of like what 

229
00:12:34,100 --> 00:12:36,700
John was saying the romance. 
Which is faster Latin Masters 

230
00:12:36,700 --> 00:12:39,100
Latin. 
Yeah Nina right? 

231
00:12:39,100 --> 00:12:41,100
Given that there's been plenty 
of interaction between braavos 

232
00:12:41,100 --> 00:12:42,600
and pain toss in the last few 
centuries. 

233
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,800
It's also possible. 
The kindly man expected re to 

234
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,100
run into more pentoshi words, 
our speakers because of that, 

235
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,000
either. 
Because more petacchi would be 

236
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,200
expected to be in braavos. 
Regular diplomatic missions, or 

237
00:12:53,208 --> 00:12:56,100
trade or for a variety of 
reasons, just proximity, gives 

238
00:12:56,100 --> 00:13:00,800
you all sorts of reasons to 
mingle Tyrion also observes that

239
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,300
egg on while still disguises 
young Griff is quote, fluent in 

240
00:13:04,300 --> 00:13:06,800
High Valyrian and the load. 
Decks of pain low dialects, 

241
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,600
rather a pentose tie Rashmi, 
Rand lease and the trade Talk Of

242
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:14,000
Sailors. 
Not to mention taking for him 

243
00:13:14,500 --> 00:13:19,000
that we see on page lessons in 
volunteen and meereenese. 

244
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,000
If that funny anecdote 
rotarians, like, you need to be 

245
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,400
up your nose to properly 
pronounce guard Words, which 

246
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:32,100
Griff laughs at I like that. 
Let's talk geography for a 

247
00:13:32,100 --> 00:13:35,200
minute and tosses, not quite the
farthest west of the free 

248
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,400
cities. 
Even though it's the closest to 

249
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:40,800
King's Landing, that would beat 
Irish which is the closest to to

250
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:45,600
the landfall on Westeros. 
It's very close to our rushes to

251
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,900
the stormlands and stepstones 
and Dorne. 

252
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,500
But you could draw a straight 
line from braavos, almost all 

253
00:13:52,500 --> 00:13:57,600
the way straight down to lease 
passing through, then toss. 

254
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,900
Yes, almost exactly a straight 
line from Bravo's all the way 

255
00:14:00,900 --> 00:14:02,800
down to lease passing through. 
Pentose pretty cool. 

256
00:14:02,900 --> 00:14:07,000
So this goes to show and sets up
the proximity here. 

257
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:12,900
Basically describes the start of
the geopolitical situation that 

258
00:14:12,900 --> 00:14:16,100
has existed for thousands of 
years although braavos is not 

259
00:14:16,100 --> 00:14:17,900
thousands of years old so the 
situation would have been 

260
00:14:17,900 --> 00:14:21,800
different in ancient times, but 
as it is now these cities are 

261
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:23,800
often competing over the same 
things. 

262
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:27,600
There's been endless fights over
the stepstones over trade routes

263
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,800
over different things here and 
there and It's created some 

264
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,300
really good stories. 
Blanche's would be the farthest 

265
00:14:33,300 --> 00:14:37,600
away physically but it's not the
shortest or not the farthest by 

266
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,200
travel time because according to
several things within the story,

267
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,500
it's quicker to go by ship. 
You get to blanch quicker by 

268
00:14:43,500 --> 00:14:44,900
ship. 
So that would that says to me 

269
00:14:44,900 --> 00:14:48,700
the farthest actual travel time 
would be to cohort which you 

270
00:14:48,700 --> 00:14:52,300
can't take ship to get there at 
least not right away. 

271
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,300
If the walk all the way, they 
remember Danny walks that way. 

272
00:14:56,100 --> 00:14:58,700
With Drogo and the callous, are 
they pass all the way through 

273
00:14:58,700 --> 00:15:01,800
all that, through the forest of 
cohort, on their way to vaes 

274
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,400
dothrak, which is really, really
far away? 

275
00:15:06,100 --> 00:15:09,800
And there are bleary and Roads, 
there's a bellerian road that 

276
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,600
heads, west or east rather out 
of know? 

277
00:15:12,700 --> 00:15:14,500
Yeah. 
East out of pain toss, two 

278
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,700
words, what used to be the 
city's of the Rhine, and perhaps

279
00:15:18,700 --> 00:15:21,100
some other locations as well? 
And that's, of course, 

280
00:15:21,100 --> 00:15:23,100
important, because they're 
tracing, they were founded as a 

281
00:15:23,108 --> 00:15:24,600
trade City. 
The Valerian roads would have 

282
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,100
been there right away trading by
ship would have been their main 

283
00:15:28,700 --> 00:15:31,300
deal at first, but you know, of 
course, they want to do a lot of

284
00:15:31,300 --> 00:15:34,600
trading Land by land as well. 
It has a sheltered Harbor, you 

285
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,300
can see like a bag, They in 
there with like a small Inlet, 

286
00:15:37,300 --> 00:15:41,300
that's a perfect spot, it's a 
knight's ideal storms, wouldn't 

287
00:15:41,300 --> 00:15:43,900
hit it as hard because the ocean
wouldn't be able to rip up 

288
00:15:43,900 --> 00:15:45,700
ashore as much. 
Because a lot of that would be a

289
00:15:45,700 --> 00:15:49,200
lot of that force would be 
wasted on the Outer Banks there.

290
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:53,100
And the inner bay would have 
less turbulence and less storm 

291
00:15:53,100 --> 00:15:56,000
winds. 
Less waves, all that stuff less 

292
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,500
danger. 
In other words by the same 

293
00:15:58,500 --> 00:16:00,900
token, it's hard to assault 
pentose from the sea because 

294
00:16:00,900 --> 00:16:03,600
they only have to defend that 
little narrow opening into the 

295
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:07,900
bay, which means you Use a 
smaller Navy that could fight a 

296
00:16:07,900 --> 00:16:10,100
larger Navy without fear of 
encirclement. 

297
00:16:10,700 --> 00:16:15,000
But despite that currently, it's
considered the most vulnerable, 

298
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,800
the free cities, due to a treaty
with braavos that we'll discuss 

299
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:21,500
later. 
Keep that in mind because the 

300
00:16:21,500 --> 00:16:24,600
vulnerability of Pentecost, 
absolutely is a feature for the 

301
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,500
story to come in The Song of Ice
and Fire that could play out in 

302
00:16:27,500 --> 00:16:29,700
a number of ways. 
Given we know a lot of people 

303
00:16:29,900 --> 00:16:34,400
want to take it, well, it might 
be relatively easy to take 

304
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,200
these. 
Clues add up the way we think 

305
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,300
they do but not without 
consequence. 

306
00:16:39,300 --> 00:16:41,700
Yeah, you're right now. 
Right, there is a lies, there's 

307
00:16:41,700 --> 00:16:44,500
money, you know, there's a lot 
of vested interests in that 

308
00:16:44,500 --> 00:16:46,200
City. 
So might be able to quickly take

309
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,300
it but they might not keep it or
might not keep their allies if 

310
00:16:48,300 --> 00:16:49,300
they did it. 
Yeah. 

311
00:16:49,300 --> 00:16:51,300
Like the title Prince comes to 
mind as a candidate for some of 

312
00:16:51,300 --> 00:16:53,500
them might be able to hold it 
for the short term but like he 

313
00:16:53,508 --> 00:16:56,900
could probably not hold it 
against the full theory of say 

314
00:16:56,900 --> 00:17:02,500
Daenerys, Targaryen who has not 
only dragons but Dothraki and on

315
00:17:02,500 --> 00:17:04,599
cellular. 
Yeah, there's no way he and his 

316
00:17:04,599 --> 00:17:06,800
windblown. 
And just the city of pentos kids

317
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:08,400
could stop that. 
They would be more likely to try

318
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,400
to, you know, come to an 
arrangement, which they already 

319
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:12,599
wanted. 
To come to an arrangement. 

320
00:17:12,599 --> 00:17:14,200
They're not stupid. 
They're not like, hey let's take

321
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,000
on Danny. 
Yeah, I mean, they did start off

322
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,700
on the other side as her but 
they switched. 

323
00:17:19,099 --> 00:17:21,500
Yeah. 
But let's talk about the region 

324
00:17:21,500 --> 00:17:24,700
around pentose. 
It's a really cool area and 

325
00:17:24,700 --> 00:17:30,000
illyrio starch it all. 
This is Angelo's, my friend land

326
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,300
your and Dolls came from it, 
took it from the hairy men who 

327
00:17:33,300 --> 00:17:35,200
were here before them cousins to
the hairy men. 

328
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,900
A bib heart, a few Wars, ancient
realm lies, north of us. 

329
00:17:39,100 --> 00:17:42,500
We are passing through itself, 
marches pentos, these are called

330
00:17:42,500 --> 00:17:46,400
the Flatlands, farther east and 
the Velvet Hills whence, we are 

331
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,900
bound. 
So the kingdom of Hugo, or AK 

332
00:17:48,900 --> 00:17:52,600
and AK Angelo's once overlap, 
the portion of what then toss 

333
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,100
rules now, a large portion. 
It seems it's now called 

334
00:17:55,100 --> 00:17:57,800
Flatlands as it says, and that 
is pretty descriptive. 

335
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,600
It's a very flat area, very 
fertile, lots of orchards and 

336
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,000
Farms responsible for feeding 
much Apprentice. 

337
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,800
There's also Minds We know that 
because illyrio has some so it's

338
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,900
a great supply of wealth for 
Dothraki calls as well as for 

339
00:18:11,900 --> 00:18:14,800
the pentoshi elite because it's 
incredibly hard to defend. 

340
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:18,100
Like how are you going to defend
the Flatlands against the Iraqi 

341
00:18:18,100 --> 00:18:21,200
like that's their ideal terrain 
for Cavalry? 

342
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,700
No wonder. 
They come not expecting a fight.

343
00:18:24,700 --> 00:18:28,600
They come expecting to get paid.
Get bribe to go away. 

344
00:18:28,900 --> 00:18:31,300
And yeah, that's exactly what 
happens. 

345
00:18:31,300 --> 00:18:35,200
I mean, that's what called Drogo
is doing there first. 

346
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,700
Plays basically, Nina says this 
land, reminds me a lot of the 

347
00:18:38,700 --> 00:18:42,500
westerland's, perhaps 
coincidental that we see at best

348
00:18:42,500 --> 00:18:45,600
through OS, turbines eyes, 
tyrion's Hills to the east 

349
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,700
fertile, farmlands in the 
center, valuable mines in the 

350
00:18:47,700 --> 00:18:50,700
area, a coast in the, on the 
west. 

351
00:18:50,900 --> 00:18:52,400
Yeah, that's all. 
That is true. 

352
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,000
That's very similar to catch by 
Nina there. 

353
00:18:55,300 --> 00:18:57,600
I like I said, a minute ago, the
Valerian Road, or one of them 

354
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,700
runs from Pain tostig Leandro, 
which is one of the rhoynar 

355
00:19:00,700 --> 00:19:05,000
ruins, both Danny and Tyrion, 
take this route in ancient times

356
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:06,500
with or without the Valyrian 
Road. 

357
00:19:06,500 --> 00:19:08,700
There have been much trade 
between these two cities after 

358
00:19:08,700 --> 00:19:10,300
all. 
Penthouse was founded by Traders

359
00:19:10,300 --> 00:19:12,500
and go and row would have been 
one of their closest neighbors. 

360
00:19:12,500 --> 00:19:14,600
This is like an obvious 
connection there. 

361
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,000
They would have been trading 
back and forth, probably would 

362
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:21,100
have been some just regular Road
maybe just beaten pass through 

363
00:19:21,100 --> 00:19:22,500
the Flatlands. 
I wouldn't even necessarily 

364
00:19:22,500 --> 00:19:24,800
needed to be anything special 
because it's probably pretty 

365
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:28,100
easy. 
Rain, which just would increase 

366
00:19:28,100 --> 00:19:30,100
the amount of trade passing 
forth between these two places 

367
00:19:30,100 --> 00:19:33,700
and the right are were renowned 
for their technology, their 

368
00:19:33,700 --> 00:19:36,300
Craftsman stuff, like the 
pentoshi, we've been all over 

369
00:19:36,300 --> 00:19:39,100
that especially because they 
would have access to bigger 

370
00:19:39,100 --> 00:19:41,900
markets. 
They could go to grow and row by

371
00:19:41,900 --> 00:19:45,300
stuff then go back to pain, 
sausage ship it all over the 

372
00:19:45,300 --> 00:19:48,600
world. 
The go in drove me, whatever her

373
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:52,700
name every say they're plural of
them so that for them to reach 

374
00:19:52,700 --> 00:19:54,900
the world markets they have to 
sail All the Way South through 

375
00:19:54,900 --> 00:19:57,000
the The entire row in which they
could, they could do that. 

376
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,500
But probably easier to just sell
it to people that have more 

377
00:19:59,500 --> 00:20:02,200
access to the World Market side.
You gotta think that the 

378
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:06,100
pentoshi were not thrilled by 
the destruction, going and row, 

379
00:20:06,300 --> 00:20:09,700
even though they were part of 
the Freehold time, like, hey, we

380
00:20:09,700 --> 00:20:12,200
traded with them. 
That's, that's stinks. 

381
00:20:12,700 --> 00:20:15,500
Dang it. 
And you gotta remember, trade 

382
00:20:15,500 --> 00:20:18,200
goes two ways to. 
There's thing, they would have 

383
00:20:18,500 --> 00:20:21,100
depended on things from them to 
there would have been part of 

384
00:20:21,100 --> 00:20:24,700
their, you know, friction or 
organization and you know supply

385
00:20:24,700 --> 00:20:26,200
line. 
And everything would have been 

386
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,000
very disruptive to both spin 
sauce and the other people that 

387
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,500
the trading with. 
Yeah, and not just going and 

388
00:20:30,500 --> 00:20:32,400
row, like they're the closest of
the ruins. 

389
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,400
But they would have probably 
been trading with a lot of the 

390
00:20:34,700 --> 00:20:37,400
runner cities, especially the 
ones on the western side of the 

391
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:42,500
Rhine, but probably all of them 
least indirectly and there would

392
00:20:42,500 --> 00:20:45,700
have been rivalries though back 
between the free cities back 

393
00:20:45,700 --> 00:20:47,300
before. 
The Doom, the open war is 

394
00:20:47,300 --> 00:20:49,500
unlikely because they're all 
just holding to the Freehold. 

395
00:20:49,500 --> 00:20:51,100
The Freehold prolly wouldn't 
tolerate that. 

396
00:20:51,300 --> 00:20:56,500
So, in some ways trade may have 
blown Offload more freely when 

397
00:20:56,500 --> 00:20:59,400
they were all rolled up under 
the Freehold in a manner of 

398
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,400
speaking because Freehold was 
anything but free. 

399
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,900
But you see my point that would 
have some things would have been

400
00:21:05,900 --> 00:21:07,800
a little smoother. 
Whereas now that they're 

401
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,200
independent there's occasionally
little more friction, between 

402
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,800
competing powers that be within 
those cities. 

403
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,800
Usually that friction is not 
between the like regular folk 

404
00:21:16,300 --> 00:21:19,700
but the elites that have stand 
to gain and lose so much based 

405
00:21:19,700 --> 00:21:24,500
on certain laws or certain trade
deals or would have You know, 

406
00:21:24,500 --> 00:21:26,600
also writes, there would have 
been more trade settlements 

407
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:28,800
generally then at least 
different ones in exist now. 

408
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,800
Yeah, for example, the coming of
the Dothraki over ran a lot of 

409
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,900
smaller towns, important 
occasion, they just were wiped 

410
00:21:35,900 --> 00:21:39,300
out and people just didn't want 
to live there anymore in the 

411
00:21:39,300 --> 00:21:42,200
ones that weren't wiped out 
because they were afraid of what

412
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:43,600
happened to the ones that were 
wiped out. 

413
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:49,300
So, more of essos turn to cities
well, big walled cities that 

414
00:21:49,300 --> 00:21:52,200
could afford to buy off the 
Dothraki or maybe fight them 

415
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,800
off. 
Like in the case of cohort that 

416
00:21:54,800 --> 00:22:00,100
one time but with the bigger 
without the Dothraki with the 

417
00:22:00,100 --> 00:22:03,200
Freehold ruling, the area, there
would have been a lot more towns

418
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,800
and Villages that could have 
been part of this ginormous 

419
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,900
Trade Network that probably used
to exist. 

420
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,800
Now, there is still a ginormous 
Trade Network but it's more 

421
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:14,900
space between the town's. 
It's, there's, there's too much 

422
00:22:14,900 --> 00:22:17,200
risk for a lot of these smaller 
places to exist. 

423
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:19,200
Although we there is some 
evidence that that starting to 

424
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:23,600
return because the Dothraki are 
not quite as More like as they 

425
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:25,800
used to be, which is really 
like, well, they're still 

426
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:27,800
really, really, really really 
warlike. 

427
00:22:27,900 --> 00:22:31,200
But yeah, even even, they are 
not quite as bad, but partly, 

428
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,200
because of all the technique of 
bribing them, that didn't exist 

429
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:35,900
right away. 
You know, it wasn't something 

430
00:22:35,900 --> 00:22:38,900
that just immediately popped up 
when the Dothraki emerged from 

431
00:22:39,100 --> 00:22:44,200
the Doom, Northeast of pain, 
tosses The Velvet Hills, which 

432
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,200
Tyrion called disappointing. 
He was like, they should be 

433
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:47,800
called The Velvet eats they're 
so. 

434
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,200
So small. 
It's kind of like how he makes 

435
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,100
fun of the ROI in the first 
like, this river is not that big

436
00:22:52,100 --> 00:22:53,600
a deal and later he's like, 
Oops. 

437
00:22:53,700 --> 00:22:56,500
Okay, I was wrong hands. 
Dean Oliver. 

438
00:22:56,500 --> 00:22:58,500
Yeah, I got see, you may have 
been right about the Velvet 

439
00:22:58,500 --> 00:22:59,500
Hills, though. 
That doesn't mean they're not 

440
00:22:59,500 --> 00:23:01,600
interesting. 
They're just not large, you 

441
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,500
know, and here's a quote that I 
think makes them sound quite 

442
00:23:04,500 --> 00:23:07,500
interesting. 
I saw a circle of Standing 

443
00:23:07,500 --> 00:23:09,400
Stones. 
Illyrio claimed had been raised 

444
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,900
by Giants and later a deep lake 
here. 

445
00:23:11,900 --> 00:23:14,800
Live a den of robbers who preyed
on all who passed this way. 

446
00:23:14,900 --> 00:23:18,500
Leery of said, it is said they 
still dwell beneath the water. 

447
00:23:18,700 --> 00:23:21,300
Those who fish the lake are 
Pulled Under and devoured. 

448
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,100
Next evening, They Came Upon a 
huge Valerian Sphinx crouched 

449
00:23:25,100 --> 00:23:28,700
beside the road headed, dragons 
body in a woman's face. 

450
00:23:28,700 --> 00:23:31,000
So those sound kind of like 
stories have deep ones, which 

451
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:34,400
pop up all over the world in 
various stories or something 

452
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,700
like them, actually in a minute.
it will have a different quote 

453
00:23:36,700 --> 00:23:39,600
that refers to them as Swan, 
Maiden switch, doesn't sound 

454
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:43,100
like deep ones at all, although 
it could be like a Cousin 

455
00:23:43,100 --> 00:23:45,600
species or an enemy of deep 
lunges and like that? 

456
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,800
Who knows what great underwater 
civilizations go, what's been 

457
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,800
going on down there? 
All this time, who has, who 

458
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,100
knows? 
You knows about the old deep one

459
00:23:54,100 --> 00:23:59,200
Swan Maiden rivalry, it's an 
ancient tale, that we don't have

460
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,400
any information on. 
It sounds pretty sweet, though. 

461
00:24:02,500 --> 00:24:05,400
And that reminds us that much of
central esos was once the great 

462
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,800
silver. 
See a giant Inland Sea, which 

463
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:11,900
may have been saltwater or not, 
we don't know a lot of ancient 

464
00:24:11,900 --> 00:24:14,500
plane. 
In the real world were once sea 

465
00:24:14,500 --> 00:24:15,900
floors? 
Like, that's true of the Great 

466
00:24:15,900 --> 00:24:18,900
Plains in the US. 
That's you find Sea fossils 

467
00:24:18,900 --> 00:24:21,100
there, you know, like in the 
middle of the continent, but 

468
00:24:21,100 --> 00:24:24,400
that's because similar stuff 
happens in happened. 

469
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:28,300
In this setting, not to mention 
the sarnath connection, which 

470
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,400
literally had deep one type 
creatures coming out of the 

471
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,000
water to attack people. 
The Doom that came to sarnath 

472
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,400
being a Lovecraft story, and 
something we talked about in 

473
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,700
Kingdom of Sorrow, nor episode 
as well as in the episode, I 

474
00:24:40,700 --> 00:24:44,200
believe the episode as As is 
properly referred to. 

475
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,000
The Sphinx now that we hear in 
the Fuller version of that, 

476
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:54,900
anecdote illyrio says the 
Dothraki carried the mail Sphinx

477
00:24:54,900 --> 00:24:58,100
off back to vaes dothrak leaving
the females things behind. 

478
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,400
That couldn't have been that 
long ago, I mean, maybe three 

479
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,300
four hundred years, so I'll 
substantial amount of time but 

480
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,700
the Sphinx might have sat there 
for like 1,000 years, 2,000 

481
00:25:09,700 --> 00:25:13,500
years read that mean, the Great 
Sphinx in Egypt is thousands of 

482
00:25:13,500 --> 00:25:16,000
years old. 
So not strange at all to think 

483
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,200
about something like that. 
If it get a real world stinks, 

484
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:19,600
it's been there. 
Thousands years, I mean it's 

485
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:21,700
nothing to think about that here
in essence, right? 

486
00:25:22,500 --> 00:25:24,500
Only here for at least a 
thousand and one. 

487
00:25:25,100 --> 00:25:27,900
Yeah. 
Right, so that's kind of neat, 

488
00:25:27,900 --> 00:25:30,200
of course. 
That's very Symbolic of the they

489
00:25:31,100 --> 00:25:34,800
female Spinks. 
If that's meant to Dragon Sphinx

490
00:25:34,900 --> 00:25:37,300
sitting on a plinth, is meant to
indicate the naira steering. 

491
00:25:37,300 --> 00:25:40,400
Even sees it. 
As a good omen, Danny wasn't 

492
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,500
carried back to base tothe rack 
by the symbol of that. 

493
00:25:43,500 --> 00:25:45,200
But she has been carried back to
base though. 

494
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,000
Track at least. 
It looks like she's about to be 

495
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,200
and then well we'll see what 
happens next. 

496
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,900
But yep, the Dothraki. 
They're about to be taught a 

497
00:25:53,908 --> 00:25:56,300
lesson and what feminism? 
I suppose. 

498
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,700
To the southeast Li the 
so-called golden Fields an area 

499
00:26:01,700 --> 00:26:03,000
made fertile. 
By the roin. 

500
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,700
This would have been another 
trade partner long ago and 

501
00:26:05,700 --> 00:26:08,500
perhaps an area they have tried 
to move in on after the fall 

502
00:26:08,500 --> 00:26:10,900
that be one good thing for them 
like well we can't trade with go

503
00:26:10,900 --> 00:26:13,700
and draw anymore but we can take
their land, the land that they 

504
00:26:13,700 --> 00:26:16,500
were farming and we were trading
with them whether we can leave, 

505
00:26:16,500 --> 00:26:19,200
maybe that's our Silver. 
Linings, we can own this 

506
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,600
territory now because there's no
one else to claim it or no one 

507
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,100
big enough to claim it besides 
us today. 

508
00:26:23,100 --> 00:26:26,800
It's a may have come out ahead 
of that after all but since then

509
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:28,400
there's been lots of worrying 
over. 

510
00:26:28,500 --> 00:26:31,700
He's territories, Penthouse is 
surrounded by extremely fertile 

511
00:26:31,700 --> 00:26:34,700
regions in every direction 
including West because the sea 

512
00:26:34,700 --> 00:26:37,700
is fertile and it's especially 
for them with their Bay that 

513
00:26:37,700 --> 00:26:41,200
they probably did quite a lot of
fish out of with less risk than 

514
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,300
a lot of fishermen would take 
because again, that's protected 

515
00:26:44,300 --> 00:26:47,900
sheltered from the worst parts 
of the ocean. 

516
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:52,400
But these are areas have since 
been Ward over by the free 

517
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,900
cities. 
Especially Bravo's has been a 

518
00:26:54,908 --> 00:26:57,900
problem for pentos and recent 
centuries, because braavos is 

519
00:26:57,900 --> 00:27:01,900
superior to Militaristically has
gotten the better of it in a 

520
00:27:01,900 --> 00:27:05,200
number of ways and that's pushed
them back a bit. 

521
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,300
So, braavos, is kind of 
dominated pentose. 

522
00:27:07,300 --> 00:27:10,100
Somewhat to the South. 
They've fought a bit with mirror

523
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:16,100
and this seems to be more of an 
even balanced arrangement. 

524
00:27:16,100 --> 00:27:20,300
I don't at least not recently. 
We haven't seen any massive 

525
00:27:20,300 --> 00:27:22,700
incursions on either side 
turning out recently because the

526
00:27:22,700 --> 00:27:26,700
pentoshi military is Tiny. 
Yeah. 

527
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:31,000
Now referring back To the map 
recently briefly the so-called 

528
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:36,900
golden fields are almost exactly
equidistant between mere nirvash

529
00:27:36,900 --> 00:27:39,700
and cohort. 
Ooh, they're in that like non 

530
00:27:39,700 --> 00:27:45,900
forested area so you can imagine
that they would all want the 

531
00:27:45,900 --> 00:27:48,800
golden Fields. 
I mean it's the golden Fields. 

532
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,600
That's it just sounds really 
valuable. 

533
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,100
Yeah. 
Like all that food. 

534
00:27:53,300 --> 00:27:55,800
Yeah, there's been fights over 
that. 

535
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:58,600
It didn't occur to me until just
last night. 

536
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:00,500
So I didn't get to research it 
very deeply. 

537
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:04,600
But in my mind, I think, or I 
think in George's mind, pentose 

538
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,400
is a parallel to Genoa, I think 
graders. 

539
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,600
Yeah. 
Right braavos is probably Venice

540
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:12,200
right. 
There are some pretty good 

541
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,900
parent parallels are in Venice 
and, you know, we're sort of a 

542
00:28:14,900 --> 00:28:19,300
rival rival cities and there's a
lot of parallels that Genoa was 

543
00:28:19,300 --> 00:28:22,300
like, it's weird to me. 
In fact, it is not a better 

544
00:28:22,300 --> 00:28:24,800
known City, I guess, you know, 
in modern times, it's not as 

545
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,200
important, but through history, 
it's up there with Rome and 

546
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,700
Paris as far as its importance 
in trade. 

547
00:28:29,900 --> 00:28:33,000
And it, one of the first Banks 
ever formed was there. 

548
00:28:33,300 --> 00:28:37,200
They were the financial backing 
to the habsburgs. 

549
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:40,800
I think they still are the 
biggest, trading port, and the 

550
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,500
Mediterranean. 
Yeah, you know, it's it's hard 

551
00:28:43,500 --> 00:28:46,800
to fully understand the 
importance and relevance said, 

552
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:51,000
city is head over the centuries,
but it's never had like a huge 

553
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:55,800
strong Army and it's been taken,
Annex act several times. 

554
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,700
You know, it seems like You 
know, once or twice a century on

555
00:28:58,700 --> 00:29:03,000
average, but keeps bouncing back
as this powerful trade in any 

556
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:07,300
between its position as a port, 
its reach, its financial 

557
00:29:07,300 --> 00:29:10,600
institutions, it's had a lot of 
powerful influence and point 

558
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:12,500
being it. 
This is all pintos, right? 

559
00:29:12,500 --> 00:29:14,500
Don't miss everything, I'm 
saying like lions right up with 

560
00:29:14,500 --> 00:29:15,800
pintos. 
You're very right. 

561
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,200
That is this, he would have 
this. 

562
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:22,600
It would have this same, sort of
meshing of cultures, and 

563
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,700
languages, and travel, and 
trade, and everything. 

564
00:29:25,700 --> 00:29:29,400
That's ethnic Quick background 
and so on, I know, I need to 

565
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,500
look into it more, but I'm 
confident, there's probably some

566
00:29:31,500 --> 00:29:34,600
more detailed parallels that I 
haven't come up with it, but 

567
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,600
that someone out there is an 
expert on Italy or Genoa, say 

568
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:39,000
probably, right? 
That wasn't even more. 

569
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:40,800
The brandalynn price in the chat
said, yeah. 

570
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,100
Genoa recognition. 
Appreciate that charm. 

571
00:29:43,100 --> 00:29:45,700
So over nice, very good. 
Cool. 

572
00:29:45,700 --> 00:29:48,100
Thanks for that brandalynn. 
Let's talk about the founding 

573
00:29:48,100 --> 00:29:51,300
and people of pentos. 
Here's a quote, from the world 

574
00:29:51,300 --> 00:29:55,300
of Ice and Fire. 
Ten tosses, the nearest of the 

575
00:29:55,300 --> 00:29:58,200
free cities to King's Landing, 
and trading ships. 

576
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,700
Pass back and forth between the 
two cities on an almost daily 

577
00:30:01,700 --> 00:30:04,900
basis. 
Founded by valyrians the trading

578
00:30:04,900 --> 00:30:09,700
Outpost, Penta soon absorbed the
hinterland surrounding it from 

579
00:30:09,700 --> 00:30:13,600
The Velvet Hills and the Little 
Roy into the sea, including 

580
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:17,800
almost the whole of the ancient 
realm of Angelo's, the original 

581
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:22,600
homeland of the Andals, the 
first pentoshi were merchants 

582
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:27,700
Raiders seafarers and Farmers 
with few of high birth amongst 

583
00:30:27,700 --> 00:30:30,000
them. 
Perhaps for this reason they 

584
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:34,100
were less protective of their 
Valyrian blood and more willing 

585
00:30:34,100 --> 00:30:37,300
to breed with the original. 
Inhabitants of the land. 

586
00:30:37,300 --> 00:30:42,000
They ruled as a consequence. 
There is considerable and all 

587
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,200
blood amongst the men of pentos 
making them. 

588
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,500
Perhaps our closest Cousins. 
Yeah. 

589
00:30:47,500 --> 00:30:50,100
You really don't see this 
blending of, and all and valyria

590
00:30:50,100 --> 00:30:52,300
anywhere else. 
I mean, there is some blending 

591
00:30:52,300 --> 00:30:55,500
of it elsewhere. 
But this is the Hub of that 

592
00:30:55,500 --> 00:30:57,600
connection because usually 
because they end all is mostly 

593
00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:59,700
fled the Valerian they mostly 
ran away from her. 

594
00:30:59,700 --> 00:31:03,800
Like we can't stop you, we're 
leaving they fled Westeros very 

595
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,900
famously, the coming of the end 
dolls because they couldn't 

596
00:31:06,900 --> 00:31:09,200
stand against the Valyrian 
Freehold there was just too 

597
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,800
powerful. 
So this is an exception of sorts

598
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:18,400
where it came about because the 
valyrians that came to this area

599
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:21,900
that became pentose work coming,
as conquerors originally they 

600
00:31:21,900 --> 00:31:23,900
were coming as traitors. 
And during set up a trading 

601
00:31:23,900 --> 00:31:26,100
Outpost and they worked. 
Apparently from what we're told 

602
00:31:26,100 --> 00:31:29,200
worked with the locals and 
mingled with them and to bread 

603
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,600
with them rather than conquering
at all. 

604
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,200
Now there are different takes on
this. 

605
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,400
There is some evidence that 
there may have been some 

606
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:39,900
fighting, but not much evidence 
and we hear this one. 

607
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:43,400
It's mostly just speculations is
a very good chance that it 

608
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:45,000
started off relatively 
peaceably. 

609
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,900
Sure, there was some Cutthroat 
business stuff back then I'm 

610
00:31:48,900 --> 00:31:51,700
sure people were cutting each 
other out of deals and doing 

611
00:31:51,700 --> 00:31:55,100
some underhanded stuff, too. 
Get the most money in certain 

612
00:31:55,100 --> 00:31:58,500
situations, but that probably 
weren't starting Wars and the 

613
00:31:58,500 --> 00:32:01,100
violence would have been kept on
a pretty small scale. 

614
00:32:01,100 --> 00:32:04,400
I think. 
And of course, we also must 

615
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,100
remember, as I said about 
braavos, it's in this quote. 

616
00:32:07,100 --> 00:32:10,600
It says they had most of the 
ancient realm of Angelo's the 

617
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,400
time. 
So most of Northwestern SOS 

618
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,200
would have been there. 
So pentose in ancient times 

619
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:15,800
would have wax way more 
powerful. 

620
00:32:16,100 --> 00:32:20,800
They've, since had to dial it 
back because Bravo's rules most 

621
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,600
of that territory now. 
And braavos is Just a lot 

622
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,700
mightier than them for a lot of 
reasons. 

623
00:32:27,100 --> 00:32:33,100
As far as the size now. 
Hmm, a stupor is used as a 

624
00:32:33,108 --> 00:32:36,400
parallel, in terms of population
size, it's bigger than a stupor 

625
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,500
may be similar in size to say 
lease or qarth number of people,

626
00:32:40,500 --> 00:32:42,600
but we don't really have great 
dad on. 

627
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:46,000
That isn't sort of ballparking 
it, I don't think George has 

628
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:47,100
great dead on. 
Yeah. 

629
00:32:47,100 --> 00:32:49,500
Right. 
He hasn't bothered his ballpark 

630
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,100
so they're called pentoshi now 
but they were once a mixture of 

631
00:32:54,100 --> 00:32:58,800
and alls valyrians slaves from 
Different places would be in 

632
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,800
mingled in the Bloodlines as 
well and just other people's. 

633
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,600
Like I said I think I mentioned 
before there would have been 

634
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:06,500
some some races that have been 
long forgotten, some of which 

635
00:33:06,500 --> 00:33:08,200
might be Supernatural, like 
hairy men, a bib. 

636
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:12,000
Those were not as likely to be 
invited to the party. 

637
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,600
So to speak, it seems like 
humans and hairy men didn't 

638
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:19,600
really get along so well, and so
each other is like, Oscar then 

639
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,500
type scenarios like well yeah, 
we gotta kill them all or 

640
00:33:22,508 --> 00:33:25,600
they're going to kill all of us.
So not a lot of agreement or 

641
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:29,500
peace between that. 
So this is this is different 

642
00:33:29,500 --> 00:33:32,600
like we said with from leasing 
that, there was the super-rich 

643
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,700
typed founding that whereas, 
this is more middle-class folks 

644
00:33:36,100 --> 00:33:40,000
and that's almost like Nina says
it's almost a sense in that 

645
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:43,100
description that pentose thrived
and dominated somewhat in spite 

646
00:33:43,100 --> 00:33:46,100
of his origin. 
Its origins, or at least without

647
00:33:46,100 --> 00:33:49,000
owing much to them. 
And toss doesn't seem to have as

648
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:50,500
much connection to the Freehold.
It doesn't. 

649
00:33:50,500 --> 00:33:53,100
There's no, there's not a lot of
stories of it getting help from 

650
00:33:53,100 --> 00:33:57,000
the dragonlords or this and 
that, it just seems to have Been

651
00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:00,600
a like, we send you some taxes 
and get left alone, and that's 

652
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:04,300
about it kind of situation. 
And I mean, it was really far 

653
00:34:04,300 --> 00:34:07,200
from the Freehold to that's 
ninus Aniston and reference to 

654
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,699
that passage. 
We just read, which is from the 

655
00:34:10,699 --> 00:34:12,400
end. 
All right, the author of the 

656
00:34:12,699 --> 00:34:14,400
world of Ice and Fire book, 
right? 

657
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,699
And so they would have a bias 
right there would want to 

658
00:34:17,699 --> 00:34:23,000
attribute the success of a great
City to Royal Blood valyrians or

659
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:27,400
you're not so much to the hard 
work of the Heard person right 

660
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:28,199
now. 
Did they win? 

661
00:34:28,199 --> 00:34:33,199
Yes, somehow these dumb old 
Merchants made a successful City

662
00:34:33,199 --> 00:34:35,699
without him to lead them that, 
you know? 

663
00:34:36,900 --> 00:34:38,600
How is it possible? 
I don't know. 

664
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,000
Surely because of the great 
location. 

665
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,699
Yeah, couldn't be because of 
their hard work or anything like

666
00:34:43,699 --> 00:34:46,400
that or the capability know, 
just what that is. 

667
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:49,199
But the location is important. 
I mean, we've heard for sure, 

668
00:34:49,199 --> 00:34:51,600
you here, that's what some top 
three most important as your 

669
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,100
business location location. 
That's still true, even in the 

670
00:34:54,100 --> 00:34:56,199
era of the internet, because 
that's how people find you. 

671
00:34:56,300 --> 00:34:58,900
The internet is important like 
we need to be accessible, right?

672
00:34:58,900 --> 00:35:00,900
If people can't find you on the 
internet, it's just as bad as 

673
00:35:00,900 --> 00:35:03,800
people, not being able to find 
your store in the in this, 

674
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,900
whatever City you live in or 
maybe worse but still the same 

675
00:35:06,900 --> 00:35:10,600
concept applies. 
So pain, tosses just right in 

676
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,300
the middle of like, all the 
trading of the narrow sea there 

677
00:35:13,300 --> 00:35:16,900
in the center of Western essos 
and which lines of King's 

678
00:35:16,900 --> 00:35:19,300
Landing there. 
Whereas braavos is powerful. 

679
00:35:19,300 --> 00:35:22,000
They had to scrap their way into
that braavos is powerful, but 

680
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,300
kind of remote pair together. 
Free cities is way up in the 

681
00:35:24,300 --> 00:35:27,100
Northwestern corner there, which
puts it To Westeros. 

682
00:35:27,100 --> 00:35:30,500
But in terms of like, getting 
like a shy or even like 

683
00:35:30,500 --> 00:35:33,300
volantis, it's pretty far right 
cars really far away for 

684
00:35:33,300 --> 00:35:35,000
Penthouse. 
It's a lot closer and they're 

685
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:36,400
closer to places that are 
closer. 

686
00:35:36,900 --> 00:35:40,300
So they're really in the center 
of was like, if this was a giant

687
00:35:40,300 --> 00:35:43,300
mall, they'd be in like the 
prime spot, whatever. 

688
00:35:43,300 --> 00:35:44,600
That is for a mall. 
I don't know. 

689
00:35:45,900 --> 00:35:48,800
I still want to give credit to 
the to the value of trade and 

690
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,700
Merchants and hard work of 
everage people because there are

691
00:35:51,700 --> 00:35:54,500
other key spots in good 
locations to. 

692
00:35:54,500 --> 00:35:56,200
Yeah, it didn't grow to these 
thrive. 

693
00:35:56,300 --> 00:35:58,200
Vince. 
He's like King's Landing only 

694
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:01,700
relatively recently became a 
significant City and it's very 

695
00:36:01,700 --> 00:36:04,400
very similar as far as position 
he right. 

696
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:05,600
Yeah. 
You're totally dressed like it 

697
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,000
because it's no surprise. 
King's Landing fry because of 

698
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,000
its great location yet. 
Why was there nothing there 

699
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,300
before? 
Well probably, because of Dusk, 

700
00:36:12,300 --> 00:36:15,400
and Dale and drift Mark in other
places, that would have stopped 

701
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,400
them like, no, this is our Trade
Network. 

702
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:19,600
We don't want you to get going, 
you know, so which would have 

703
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:21,300
maybe happened in ancient SOS as
well. 

704
00:36:21,300 --> 00:36:25,300
There may have been lots of 
other pain toss like places that

705
00:36:25,300 --> 00:36:28,400
just didn't make it. 
Either because the leaders were 

706
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:33,500
more motivated by maintaining 
their power, or their Prestige, 

707
00:36:33,500 --> 00:36:37,700
or warring against neighbor, 
rather than productivity and 

708
00:36:37,700 --> 00:36:41,400
trade and commerce, and exchange
of ideas and everything else. 

709
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:44,100
So, the more often you get a 
city people doing that, they 

710
00:36:44,100 --> 00:36:47,900
Thrive more so than cities who 
are just trying to be the big 

711
00:36:47,900 --> 00:36:50,900
dog, or whatever ya know, not to
say that the presence, the elite

712
00:36:50,900 --> 00:36:53,400
don't have a lot of power in 
pentos because they do, but it 

713
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:54,300
is different. 
You're right. 

714
00:36:54,300 --> 00:36:56,200
There are interesting 
differences. 

715
00:36:56,300 --> 00:37:00,700
Has in how absolute power or the
highest level of power is 

716
00:37:00,700 --> 00:37:03,600
exercised. 
It's almost a bit of an in-joke.

717
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,400
The way they do, it will get to 
that pretty shortly here. 

718
00:37:07,300 --> 00:37:09,900
Here's a quick one line quote, 
whereas lorath nervous and 

719
00:37:09,900 --> 00:37:11,600
cohort were founded for 
religious reasons. 

720
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:13,900
The interests of least Irish and
mere have always been 

721
00:37:13,900 --> 00:37:17,900
Mercantile. 
Interestingly pentose volantis 

722
00:37:18,300 --> 00:37:21,100
and Bravo's are not included in 
that, which is peculiar saw. 

723
00:37:21,100 --> 00:37:23,400
Typically the Bravo's not in 
there because they were 

724
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,700
obviously founded for neither 
reason, they were Founded for 

725
00:37:26,700 --> 00:37:29,000
religious or Mercantile re they 
were founded as a Haven for 

726
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:30,100
escaped slaves. 
A place. 

727
00:37:30,300 --> 00:37:33,200
Basically a refugee place that 
turned into a powerful City over

728
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,900
time. 
It had religious and Mercantile 

729
00:37:35,900 --> 00:37:40,600
and Refugee political reasons. 
It had all that volantis was 

730
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:42,600
more of an extension of the 
Freehold of first because it's 

731
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:46,700
just right there out, basically 
right off of the peninsula and 

732
00:37:46,700 --> 00:37:49,600
still has its ancient eyes. 
They're so it's different too. 

733
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,000
So, I wonder why pain tosses 
include because their interests 

734
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:53,600
have always been Mercantile as 
well. 

735
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,100
So, I wonder why that's not 
included. 

736
00:37:56,300 --> 00:37:59,300
And implication did. 
There's also been a religious 

737
00:37:59,500 --> 00:38:00,900
influence maybe. 
Yeah. 

738
00:38:00,900 --> 00:38:04,300
At least or maybe some of the 
factor by the way worth noting 

739
00:38:04,500 --> 00:38:06,800
Genoa. 
Is the birthplace of multiple 

740
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:11,400
Pope's many popes and from 
Genoa, many or another potential

741
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,300
parallel there. 
Yeah, that's true. 

742
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,900
Here's another story. 
An alternate version of the 

743
00:38:16,908 --> 00:38:19,900
story of Pentecost that maybe 
helps explain where that quote 

744
00:38:19,900 --> 00:38:24,900
is coming from maybe is claimed 
in some histories that pain toss

745
00:38:24,900 --> 00:38:29,200
and Laura were of a Third type 
cities already extant before the

746
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:31,800
valyrians came, whose rulers 
paid? 

747
00:38:31,900 --> 00:38:35,900
Homage to valyria, and thus 
retained their right to Native 

748
00:38:35,900 --> 00:38:39,900
rule in these cities. 
What influx of valerian blood 

749
00:38:39,900 --> 00:38:43,800
there was came from migrants 
from the Freehold or political 

750
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,000
marriages. 
Used to better buying these 

751
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:50,700
cities to valyria yet most of 
the histories that recount this 

752
00:38:50,700 --> 00:38:55,800
take is their Source Jesse oh 
herodotus's for the dragons. 

753
00:38:56,300 --> 00:39:00,100
Herodotus was himself from 
pentos and at the time the 

754
00:39:00,100 --> 00:39:03,900
Lantus was threatening to 
restore the Valyrian empire 

755
00:39:03,900 --> 00:39:07,400
under its control. 
So the notion of an independent 

756
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:11,900
pentose with Origins, distinct 
from valyria was a most 

757
00:39:12,100 --> 00:39:15,300
political convenience. 
Yeah, that's the super 

758
00:39:15,300 --> 00:39:16,900
interesting anecdote. 
Like this guy is me trying to 

759
00:39:16,900 --> 00:39:20,900
argue that actually pentose was 
originally an independent thing 

760
00:39:20,900 --> 00:39:24,500
that a join the Freehold. 
Now I don't know how politic 

761
00:39:24,500 --> 00:39:28,300
this really is because They 
didn't need any additional 

762
00:39:28,300 --> 00:39:31,200
arguments to be free. 
The Doom had happened. 

763
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:35,100
Like there's no volantis. 
I mean, there's no Freehold to 

764
00:39:35,100 --> 00:39:38,000
be a part of anymore so I don't 
know why they needed Arguments 

765
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,600
for Independence. 
When they're the governing body 

766
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:44,900
just vanished Into Thin Air 
anyway, so maybe the shouldn't 

767
00:39:44,900 --> 00:39:48,600
be looked at as just a story for
political convenience, maybe, 

768
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:53,900
maybe it's just a story that was
not popular in the Freehold 

769
00:39:53,900 --> 00:39:57,300
because it argues that. 
It wasn't founded by the 

770
00:39:57,500 --> 00:39:59,600
Freehold. 
So, maybe now the truth can come

771
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,300
out now that the Freehold isn't 
controlling the narrative. 

772
00:40:02,500 --> 00:40:03,900
So there's a couple different 
ways to look at this. 

773
00:40:03,900 --> 00:40:06,900
That isn't it goes beyond what's
presented, the read between the 

774
00:40:06,900 --> 00:40:08,700
lines. 
I think that's interesting. 

775
00:40:09,300 --> 00:40:11,500
Anita says I would like, I would
believe some extent that there 

776
00:40:11,500 --> 00:40:14,200
was a settlement if not a full 
City in the modern location of 

777
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,800
pentos precisely because it is 
such an attractive, geographical

778
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,000
area. 
Absolutely. 

779
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:21,500
Like we just said but again, 
King's Landing same deal, but 

780
00:40:21,500 --> 00:40:23,100
didn't have that, you know 
King's Landing. 

781
00:40:23,100 --> 00:40:25,500
There were people in the side of
King's Landing going to be clear

782
00:40:25,500 --> 00:40:28,900
they just Few Hubble's fishing 
boats, it was in a city so maybe

783
00:40:28,900 --> 00:40:30,300
that's where you could say. 
Well yeah, there were people 

784
00:40:30,300 --> 00:40:33,400
there, but it was just a few 
people maybe like a couple 

785
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:34,800
dozen. 
Would you really call that? 

786
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,400
Would you really call that a 
city where you're like? 

787
00:40:37,500 --> 00:40:40,600
They founded a city there? 
Yes, there were people there but

788
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:41,700
those people didn't found a 
city. 

789
00:40:41,700 --> 00:40:44,100
They just built houses like so. 
So this is over. 

790
00:40:44,100 --> 00:40:45,400
That's kind of semantics. 
I guess. 

791
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:49,200
Like what point does it become a
city or a town or a village? 

792
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:52,900
When is it official when does it
get recognized on the map? 

793
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:56,700
You know, maybe valyria 
officially gave It a town 

794
00:40:56,700 --> 00:41:00,100
Charter into this is officially 
a real place with authorized 

795
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,600
governing body and that's the 
way they mark it. 

796
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:05,900
Thus the founding there's these 
things can't really pinpoint. 

797
00:41:05,900 --> 00:41:09,000
You have to the ability to Levy 
its own taxes. 

798
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:13,000
Yeah, its own autonomy when it 
comes to collecting taxes might 

799
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,000
be a indicates and is probably a
lot of gray area, you know, I 

800
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:19,200
can imagine there were some 
people who thought of themselves

801
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,600
is part of a city already and 
some outside entity was trying 

802
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:26,500
to tax them and adults paying we
took credit for showing at But 

803
00:41:26,500 --> 00:41:29,600
maybe different outside entities
we're doing that or internal 

804
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,900
entities were doing at and yeah 
maybe at some point it became 

805
00:41:32,900 --> 00:41:36,400
clear but probably also still 
under debate even if some people

806
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:38,700
thought it was clear. 
Some reason, it may have been 

807
00:41:38,700 --> 00:41:43,400
more political is that this 
these certain reins of power or 

808
00:41:43,700 --> 00:41:46,600
Key Properties or things of 
value. 

809
00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:49,200
Within pentose may have been 
claimed by valyrians people have

810
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,000
learned origin because of their 
hairs. 

811
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:52,400
Like, well, I we have first, 
right? 

812
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,900
We're Noble blood. 
Freehold people, some people 

813
00:41:54,900 --> 00:41:59,500
like now actually, The this city
pre-exists predates, all that, 

814
00:41:59,500 --> 00:42:01,600
so your claims are invalid. 
It might be spat that I could 

815
00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:07,700
see being a way to push aside, 
the claims of Valyrian Freehold 

816
00:42:07,700 --> 00:42:09,300
others who aren't like back my 
dragons. 

817
00:42:09,300 --> 00:42:11,200
Because if any dragons you're 
not going to stop them but red 

818
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,800
it's hard to say that to those 
people when they have dragons. 

819
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:15,700
Yeah. 
But when Sunday dragons are gone

820
00:42:15,700 --> 00:42:18,400
then if you look ok now this is 
back to being - were supposed to

821
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,700
be mine in the first place only 
because I couldn't stop dragons 

822
00:42:20,700 --> 00:42:22,400
are not fight for it. 
Exactly. 

823
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,500
And you have they have all this 
money so they like the well they

824
00:42:24,500 --> 00:42:28,100
have learned of a lot of money 
so it We can, we can win this. 

825
00:42:28,100 --> 00:42:30,900
You know, they would be a lot 
more optimistic about being 

826
00:42:30,900 --> 00:42:34,400
independent in a post draconic 
world. 

827
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:35,800
I like, let's do dragons 
anymore. 

828
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:38,300
What are we worried about? 
Like yeah, there's not even a 

829
00:42:38,308 --> 00:42:41,200
continent, there's not even a 
subcontinent of Valeri anymore. 

830
00:42:41,500 --> 00:42:45,000
Like they had probably hadn't 
thought of it as Rocky at that 

831
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:47,300
point is. 
It's a problem, but hey, that's 

832
00:42:47,300 --> 00:42:49,900
a different problem. 
And Anita says they had this 

833
00:42:49,900 --> 00:42:52,900
sort of foundational myth, 
making is a big part of the real

834
00:42:52,900 --> 00:42:57,700
world to like the Romans were 
big on Claiming their ancestors,

835
00:42:57,700 --> 00:43:01,500
were the Trojans and linking 
that to Romulus and Remus and 

836
00:43:01,500 --> 00:43:05,100
all that. 
It gave them gave their origin 

837
00:43:05,100 --> 00:43:07,900
story. 
A lot more potent, sand lot, 

838
00:43:07,900 --> 00:43:11,900
more something that's something 
that unites them all like shared

839
00:43:11,900 --> 00:43:17,000
Heritage is a great way to build
community within or within a 

840
00:43:17,008 --> 00:43:20,500
city, or a town about kind of 
proud of towns origin or what it

841
00:43:20,500 --> 00:43:22,900
produces or the quality of its 
people or something. 

842
00:43:22,900 --> 00:43:24,300
You know, people are proud of 
braavos. 

843
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:26,600
There's probably plenty of 
people in pentos Proud of their 

844
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:28,800
City. 
I would argue the braavosi 

845
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,300
probably have more to be proud 
of, but that's that's just my 

846
00:43:31,300 --> 00:43:34,900
preference. 
What's odd about this though is 

847
00:43:34,900 --> 00:43:38,300
that usually people use the 
Trojan War Romulus Remus stuff. 

848
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:40,900
This is kind of the opposite of 
that where the Romans were like.

849
00:43:40,900 --> 00:43:42,500
Yeah, we're connected to the 
Trojans. 

850
00:43:42,500 --> 00:43:44,000
These guys, it's Jazzy over at 
his guys. 

851
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:47,200
Like, we're not connected to the
Larry, he's doing the opposite. 

852
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:49,600
He's like trying to distance 
themselves and instead trying to

853
00:43:49,607 --> 00:43:51,300
connect to their own local 
Heritage. 

854
00:43:51,300 --> 00:43:53,500
So they are still trying to 
connect this foundational myth 

855
00:43:53,500 --> 00:43:57,000
stuff, but while also separate 
himself, From a different Miss 

856
00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,400
Cycles. 
That's kind of interesting. 

857
00:44:00,500 --> 00:44:03,600
Illyrio has that fork 
yellowbeard with, it's very 

858
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:06,900
oily. 
That's shiny and he rubs it in a

859
00:44:06,908 --> 00:44:09,800
way that Tyrion finds kind of 
lewd. 

860
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,900
He's blue eyes and blond himself
and is, and Tashi. 

861
00:44:14,500 --> 00:44:17,400
So that's kind of maybe a fusion
of and all and Valerian. 

862
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:19,700
Look maybe like the end walls 
are blue-eyed blond-haired in 

863
00:44:19,700 --> 00:44:22,200
the valyrians burst. 
They have silver hair and purple

864
00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,700
eyes or various colored eyes are
not all purple. 

865
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:28,000
So you kind of out and that's 
maybe a clue to pentoshi beauty 

866
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:29,500
standards. 
Like the illyrio definitely has 

867
00:44:29,500 --> 00:44:32,100
a type. 
He was almost into Danny himself

868
00:44:32,100 --> 00:44:33,700
and thought the better, he 
remember, what do you think? 

869
00:44:33,700 --> 00:44:37,500
Says he's like, Oh I thought she
was too timid like okay, you 

870
00:44:37,500 --> 00:44:42,700
misread her and then Sarah he's 
into Sarah who was maybe Sarah 

871
00:44:42,700 --> 00:44:44,900
blackfyre. 
Sarah's also blond and 

872
00:44:44,900 --> 00:44:46,200
blue-eyed. 
You know. 

873
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:49,500
And yeah, Leo has a type and 
it's his own type is he is also 

874
00:44:49,500 --> 00:44:51,800
blonde-haired blue-eyed over 
that statue made of him. 

875
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:55,400
That maybe that's also a clue to
pentoshi beauty standards him 

876
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:59,200
him, maybe the ideal look for a 
young pentoshi bravoman realize 

877
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:01,700
what he was, he was earned a 
living with his sword. 

878
00:45:01,700 --> 00:45:05,800
At first, the statue was made by
someone named pytho malinin, 

879
00:45:06,500 --> 00:45:11,000
which I don't know if pytho is 
pentoshi himself but every 

880
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:15,700
pentoshi name that I've come 
across start ends in an O so 

881
00:45:15,700 --> 00:45:18,000
maybe pytho definitely Rio 
Jesse. 

882
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:23,300
Oh grow Leo nevi. 
Oh Rigo and yellow. 

883
00:45:23,300 --> 00:45:27,600
A yellow is tyrion's pentoshi. 
Pseudonym are, do we know any 

884
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:31,700
pentoshi women and their named 
and in a knot Single one we did.

885
00:45:31,700 --> 00:45:33,700
Yeah, I think we did. 
I would guess that we would see 

886
00:45:33,700 --> 00:45:37,500
a prevalence of a ending names. 
That's a great call actually. 

887
00:45:37,500 --> 00:45:39,100
Cuz yeah. 
You see that in like romance 

888
00:45:39,100 --> 00:45:40,400
languages? 
Yeah, that's it. 

889
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:41,800
That's a barrel. 
That's a really good call. 

890
00:45:41,900 --> 00:45:48,400
I was gonna say these names all 
sound like Juno and they are 

891
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:49,900
Italian sobbing, you're totally 
right? 

892
00:45:49,900 --> 00:45:51,800
Yeah. 
A lot of double vowels. 

893
00:45:51,900 --> 00:45:54,400
I mean double consonants and 
well, yeah. 

894
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:57,800
I appreciate the consistency of,
like Herodotus said mopatis. 

895
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,100
You know like the the vatos. 
Yeah, the name. 

896
00:46:00,300 --> 00:46:02,300
Is our George is pretty good 
about that, keeping pretty 

897
00:46:02,300 --> 00:46:06,900
consistent. 
There's a phrase pentoshi phrase

898
00:46:06,900 --> 00:46:10,200
that says never asked the baker.
What went into the pie? 

899
00:46:10,300 --> 00:46:12,300
Just eat. 
It's kind of like, like don't 

900
00:46:12,300 --> 00:46:14,300
ask, what's in the sausage? 
Or don't you want to see how the

901
00:46:14,300 --> 00:46:16,000
sausage is made? 
But it's also kind of like, 

902
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,500
don't ask questions. 
Just accept it. 

903
00:46:18,900 --> 00:46:21,200
You know, it old to keep your 
nose in your own business or 

904
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:22,400
that kind of thing. 
Like, that's it. 

905
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:26,000
I feel like you can read into 
that motto for like some 

906
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:29,700
attitudes, the city might have 
because a lot of dirty things 

907
00:46:29,700 --> 00:46:32,800
happen in this city and you 
know, like people doing things 

908
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,200
they're not supposed to. 
So you might Like that might be 

909
00:46:35,207 --> 00:46:39,200
like, adult don't be a snitch. 
Type vibe that gets spread 

910
00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:42,200
trickled down from the elite and
spread to the commoners me. 

911
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,100
Like that's our Vibe here, we 
will talk. 

912
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:50,000
You know, what happens in pentos
stays and maybe a slightly less 

913
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:53,300
cynical take is, don't look a 
gift horse in the mouth. 

914
00:46:53,300 --> 00:46:55,900
Okay sure sure. 
Hey this looks good, right? 

915
00:46:55,900 --> 00:46:58,600
We're living a good life like, 
you know, so yeah, just accepted

916
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:02,800
what I do think clearly there's 
a theme of slavery, you know. 

917
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:07,100
So that's another Bald by the 
wage and Noah key and slave 

918
00:47:07,100 --> 00:47:10,900
trade and con colonial times. 
And let's talk a little bit 

919
00:47:10,900 --> 00:47:12,300
about the way. 
The city is laid out. 

920
00:47:12,300 --> 00:47:15,100
It commands a large area, as we 
described just before in the 

921
00:47:15,100 --> 00:47:17,800
region section, the cities of 
greatest interest, though. 

922
00:47:18,100 --> 00:47:20,500
Of course, we have a great idea,
but it looks like that even less

923
00:47:20,500 --> 00:47:23,000
of what it looked like long ago.
We see most of what we see is 

924
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:26,000
Billy Rios manse and very little
outside that but there is some 

925
00:47:26,300 --> 00:47:29,300
enough to make use of and make 
some educated guesses. 

926
00:47:29,900 --> 00:47:33,000
We see examples as we do 
throughout the world of it. 

927
00:47:33,900 --> 00:47:37,000
Maybe not being so much, having 
the vibe that it was founded 

928
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:40,200
under a being a place of Lucky 
merchants and Traders now, it 

929
00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:42,500
seems to have maybe become a 
place of The Haves and Have Nots

930
00:47:42,500 --> 00:47:47,100
where the state of unfettered 
capitalism has gone on so long 

931
00:47:47,100 --> 00:47:51,500
that it's the people with money 
or have taken over to the extent

932
00:47:51,500 --> 00:47:56,200
that they're changing the way 
things work and affecting the 

933
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:59,200
laws. 
And in ways that are eliminating

934
00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:01,700
the middle class, it's something
that happens in the real world 

935
00:48:01,700 --> 00:48:04,300
certainly. 
For example, when they Out to 

936
00:48:04,300 --> 00:48:08,800
Danny, wanted me to Khal Drogo, 
the streets are not lit at all, 

937
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:12,100
which is kind of telling. 
Here's a quote, the streets of 

938
00:48:12,100 --> 00:48:14,800
pentos for pitch dark when they 
set out in a lie. 

939
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:18,800
Rios, elaborately carved 
palanquin to servants. 

940
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:23,100
Went ahead to light their way 
carrying ornate, oil lanterns 

941
00:48:23,100 --> 00:48:28,000
with pains a pale blue glass, 
while a dozen strong men hoisted

942
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:30,100
the polls to their shoulders. 
Hmm. 

943
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:36,400
You would expect to see a city. 
We put up lights on the streets,

944
00:48:36,700 --> 00:48:38,300
like that's normal. 
You see that in King's Landing. 

945
00:48:38,300 --> 00:48:40,000
See that pretty much everywhere 
board. 

946
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:43,600
At least you see like residual 
lights from inhabitants. 

947
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:47,600
It's kind of odd that it's 
pitch, black but not where we 

948
00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:49,800
see Danny and Company go. 
That's, it's an easy thing to 

949
00:48:49,808 --> 00:48:51,200
take. 
For granted in the modern world,

950
00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:53,900
lighting everywhere, so many 
lighting devices. 

951
00:48:54,100 --> 00:48:55,400
And when it's cheaper, we don't 
have to. 

952
00:48:56,100 --> 00:48:58,400
I mean, there are still places 
in the world that don't have 

953
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:00,800
access to electricity, but 
electricity is pretty cheap 

954
00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:03,200
compared to burning wood and 
coal. 

955
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:06,300
And having to constantly re re 
Supply yourself with that 

956
00:49:06,900 --> 00:49:09,000
cheaper and safer and more 
infrastructure. 

957
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:12,400
Like, yeah, there's less likely 
to start fires to keep polluting

958
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:15,700
the air and someone else. 
This is I'm talking about like 

959
00:49:15,700 --> 00:49:18,100
the elimination of the middle 
class perhaps in pentos. 

960
00:49:18,100 --> 00:49:20,900
Like these are the people that 
would complain about the lack of

961
00:49:20,900 --> 00:49:22,000
this. 
Like, hey, our tax money goes 

962
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:24,000
towards this. 
The rich don't care because they

963
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:26,900
can easily just as like a penny 
to them like relatively 

964
00:49:26,900 --> 00:49:28,300
speaking. 
They can afford the light their 

965
00:49:28,300 --> 00:49:29,500
own homes, and all this other 
stuff. 

966
00:49:30,300 --> 00:49:32,800
They carry a troop of light 
makers with them. 

967
00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:37,000
Another believer has many 
servants like what does he care?

968
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:39,200
You know like this another item 
on The Ledger for him it's 

969
00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:42,100
barely anything. 
The guy owns binds Farm Orchards

970
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:46,300
businesses, like it's nothing to
him but but how do you get? 

971
00:49:46,300 --> 00:49:48,900
It's hard to get that rich or if
not impossible to get that rich 

972
00:49:48,900 --> 00:49:52,000
without stepping on a lot of 
people's throats or hands or 

973
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:54,700
both and or doing worse than 
that own. 

974
00:49:54,700 --> 00:49:56,400
That many people seem to have 
that much? 

975
00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:59,300
Well, yeah, I didn't think of 
this either but I seem to 

976
00:49:59,300 --> 00:50:01,700
remember there was a passage for
the kind of describing the 

977
00:50:01,700 --> 00:50:05,700
nature of the slaves in pentos 
to wear. 

978
00:50:05,700 --> 00:50:09,600
Like they're your ostensibly 
free as long as you don't owe 

979
00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:11,000
money. 
That's Library. 

980
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:14,800
They are yes, right? 
And one way that is, is you You 

981
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:18,100
don't pay them enough to earn. 
Yeah, it's to get above the 

982
00:50:18,100 --> 00:50:19,300
food. 
They're being provided. 

983
00:50:19,300 --> 00:50:23,700
And so, a job, like lighting 
candles at night, that's enough.

984
00:50:23,700 --> 00:50:27,100
That's not enough work to 
justify enough, pay to pay for 

985
00:50:27,100 --> 00:50:31,300
your food and so ilario gets to 
just keep them all slates and he

986
00:50:31,300 --> 00:50:34,000
does feed them. 
He gives them basic sustenance 

987
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:37,300
for life, but they'll never 
learn enough pain at back just 

988
00:50:37,300 --> 00:50:40,600
lighting candles at night and so
he gets slaves within the law, 

989
00:50:40,700 --> 00:50:42,300
you know. 
So I want to jump ahead a little

990
00:50:42,300 --> 00:50:45,400
bit because what you said was 
really insightful there It sort 

991
00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:47,100
of touches on telling that Nina 
and myself. 

992
00:50:47,100 --> 00:50:50,300
Both made note of in the 
document here, that illyrio has 

993
00:50:50,300 --> 00:50:52,200
this odd Line? 
This is a term which was my 

994
00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:54,200
household loves me. 
Well, they'd never betray me, 

995
00:50:54,300 --> 00:50:57,400
like, what a strange thing to 
say, for a guy who's lived a 

996
00:50:57,400 --> 00:50:59,400
life of intrigue? 
Like, how could he possibly 

997
00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:02,000
trust his household that much? 
So maybe it's something he says 

998
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:04,900
to just change the subject or to
move on. 

999
00:51:04,900 --> 00:51:06,700
Like he doesn't really believe 
that but he's just kind of 

1000
00:51:06,700 --> 00:51:11,400
gaslighting Tyrion for some 
reason or maybe it's this like 

1001
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,400
the lamp guys not going to 
betrayal ear. 

1002
00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:16,600
Because he's got nowhere else to
go. 

1003
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:18,300
He's got no one else willing to 
take him. 

1004
00:51:18,300 --> 00:51:21,900
Like if he quit silly Rio, he's 
gonna be a beggar, a homeless 

1005
00:51:21,900 --> 00:51:24,900
beggar on the street. 
Like the other, the other light 

1006
00:51:24,900 --> 00:51:28,700
post jobs are all taken by other
people. 

1007
00:51:28,700 --> 00:51:31,300
In other other Magister, their 
people rich people in pain. 

1008
00:51:31,300 --> 00:51:33,100
Do you think it's like, hey, you
need a new light guy. 

1009
00:51:33,100 --> 00:51:35,500
Like no, of course, I don't need
a new light guy. 

1010
00:51:35,700 --> 00:51:38,800
I never have an opening. 
No, I when I have an opening, I 

1011
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,600
fill it like that. 
Like we never have like a job. 

1012
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:44,600
We're waiting for not for 
someone who is basically Old 

1013
00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:47,300
anyway, yeah, so that's just the
way it works. 

1014
00:51:47,300 --> 00:51:49,500
Like the judge even places. 
Even the job market in a place 

1015
00:51:49,500 --> 00:51:53,300
like, this is going to be just 
non-existent you, either do it 

1016
00:51:53,300 --> 00:51:56,500
yourself or you fought, you get 
lucky, you get hired into 

1017
00:51:56,500 --> 00:51:59,500
something or you get and it's 
not even miserly luck because 

1018
00:51:59,500 --> 00:52:04,400
the job stinks and you're 
basically a Slave You know maybe

1019
00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:08,400
it's even if it's still 
manipulative or underhanded or 

1020
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:11,900
greedy or whatever ilario still 
my actually there might be some 

1021
00:52:11,900 --> 00:52:14,200
truth to what he's saying 
because he might be wealthy 

1022
00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:17,500
enough that he does pay all his 
servants enough to not want to 

1023
00:52:17,500 --> 00:52:21,000
revolt or betray like not enough
to be free. 

1024
00:52:21,100 --> 00:52:22,800
Yeah. 
But better than anyone else. 

1025
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:24,700
Yeah. 
Just might pay his, you know, 

1026
00:52:24,700 --> 00:52:25,800
it's a good point. 
Yeah, what? 

1027
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:29,500
So it's not like he may be wise 
enough to use his money in a way

1028
00:52:29,500 --> 00:52:32,300
to keep things secure around. 
Like he's not doing it for good 

1029
00:52:32,300 --> 00:52:33,300
guy, reasons. 
But you're right. 

1030
00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:35,600
It's just a it's a form of 
ruthlessness, it's like 

1031
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:38,300
calculated ruthless as well. 
I will just pay them slightly 

1032
00:52:38,300 --> 00:52:40,700
more than anybody else and 
that'll ensure their loyalty you

1033
00:52:40,700 --> 00:52:41,100
know. 
Yeah. 

1034
00:52:41,100 --> 00:52:43,400
Like they get free they get 
three from someone else I give 

1035
00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:47,200
them for like why would they why
would they quit 43 when they can

1036
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:50,700
keep getting for for me, you 
know, and Robert and Ned when 

1037
00:52:50,700 --> 00:52:52,400
they're discussing like 
assassinating. 

1038
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:56,000
Danny, of course, Ted hates the 
subject, but Robert is Robert 

1039
00:52:56,100 --> 00:53:00,900
and he says, and this is one of 
the lines that we refer to when 

1040
00:53:00,900 --> 00:53:03,100
we point out. 
How viserys was talking about it

1041
00:53:03,100 --> 00:53:04,500
earlier. 
See the higher knives coming 

1042
00:53:04,500 --> 00:53:06,000
after him? 
Like, no, they were no hired 

1043
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:09,200
knives because Roberts like I 
should have gone after him when 

1044
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:11,500
I had the chance. 
You know, I should have had him 

1045
00:53:11,500 --> 00:53:13,800
killed when I had the chance. 
And he is like, well, that means

1046
00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:16,600
you didn't try. 
Did you think now, he's in some 

1047
00:53:16,600 --> 00:53:20,000
walled Mansion surrounded by 
pointy-headed eunuchs and he's 

1048
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:21,300
like a nice. 
Like we can't get to him now, 

1049
00:53:21,300 --> 00:53:24,300
can you? 
Like, no, I can't which is 

1050
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:26,800
really telling like the King on 
the Iron. 

1051
00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:30,400
Throne can't get inside this one
mansion in pain talks, like he 

1052
00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:32,100
can't bribe the right people, 
you can't. 

1053
00:53:32,100 --> 00:53:35,600
Yeah, none of these things will.
Partly because Roberts Master. 

1054
00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:39,400
Whispers, virus. 
He's not gonna plan would never 

1055
00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:43,500
assume once you have never 
worked but obviously that's only

1056
00:53:43,500 --> 00:53:46,600
part of the problem. 
I could sir problem despite 

1057
00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:48,900
Robert doesn't even know that 
virus is connected to illyrio 

1058
00:53:48,900 --> 00:53:52,700
and he still has this issue 
without that problem. 

1059
00:53:53,300 --> 00:53:56,900
So yeah it says a lot about the 
strength of the Lee Rios like 

1060
00:53:56,900 --> 00:53:59,200
mansion and looking his wild 
fortified mansion in the side 

1061
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:03,200
that you don't do that. 
If the city is like relatively 

1062
00:54:03,300 --> 00:54:05,200
Safe and peaceful. 
And like that's the kind of 

1063
00:54:05,207 --> 00:54:09,100
thing you do when it's your city
has descended into post 

1064
00:54:09,100 --> 00:54:12,700
capitalism where there's ever at
the Haves and Have Nots and you 

1065
00:54:12,700 --> 00:54:16,100
use security against the 
have-nots rather than pumping 

1066
00:54:16,100 --> 00:54:19,000
that money into the economy, to 
make it like work for everyone. 

1067
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:22,200
You know, it's also something 
you do when you have excess 

1068
00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:22,600
money. 
Yeah. 

1069
00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:26,200
You know, like lower Lord, you 
might be wealthy and successful,

1070
00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:29,000
but not as much as ilario might 
not necessarily be investing in 

1071
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:31,700
that sort of security. 
The city isn't necessarily that 

1072
00:54:31,700 --> 00:54:36,000
bad off, but It is not that well
off either. 

1073
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:38,000
Yeah. 
We're told pentose produces a 

1074
00:54:38,008 --> 00:54:43,000
lot of performers and sellswords
the type of profession that it's

1075
00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:45,300
an independent professional, you
don't get hired do it. 

1076
00:54:45,300 --> 00:54:46,500
Well, you do with your 
sellsword. 

1077
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:48,600
I mean, but you first have to 
get good at fighting in order to

1078
00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:50,800
be hired in the sellsword. 
Same as a performer, you get 

1079
00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:53,700
hired to perform but you have to
learn that on your own and you 

1080
00:54:53,700 --> 00:54:56,400
rarely like you can sure you can
maybe go to a school for that 

1081
00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:58,400
because it sound like there's 
performance schools in pain 

1082
00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:00,600
toss. 
It sounds like You said they're 

1083
00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:02,500
practicing juggling until you 
know how to do it. 

1084
00:55:02,500 --> 00:55:06,600
Like you find three objects like
stones, maybe like basically you

1085
00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:09,100
your skills and your body are 
your source of your income. 

1086
00:55:09,100 --> 00:55:11,200
Not something people other 
people taught, you not not 

1087
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:14,200
education that you got at a 
university or school or from 

1088
00:55:14,800 --> 00:55:18,000
middle class or wealthy parents.
So Penthouse, produces a lot of 

1089
00:55:18,008 --> 00:55:22,700
people like this. 
For example, Penny and Oppo and 

1090
00:55:22,700 --> 00:55:26,900
their father, hot Bean. 
May our may not be from Pain to 

1091
00:55:26,900 --> 00:55:30,400
we don't know where they're 
from, but they were hired in 

1092
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:34,700
pain pots. 
It's a place where performers, 

1093
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:37,700
well, it's a place for 
performer, whatever A lot of 

1094
00:55:37,700 --> 00:55:39,400
them reproduce there, so maybe 
they are from there, but we 

1095
00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:42,000
won't be too. 
Actually, if your name was Pana 

1096
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:43,600
instead of cutting, it might be 
more. 

1097
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:46,900
Sure, that's a good point Boppo 
though, that that fits to, it's 

1098
00:55:46,900 --> 00:55:49,400
got the double consonants and 
the o ending right hand. 

1099
00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:52,800
That's right too. 
But we do know what the tattered

1100
00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:55,300
princess real name is, but guess
it ends in 0. 

1101
00:55:56,500 --> 00:55:58,000
I do. 
It has a g. 

1102
00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:04,800
Tadow, tadow Takeo. 
The manse gifted to Khal Drogo. 

1103
00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:06,800
Speaking of excess, wealth, as 
you mentioned a minute ago, 

1104
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,300
Shawn it has nine towers and 
sits. 

1105
00:56:09,300 --> 00:56:10,800
By the way, they just gave it to
him. 

1106
00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:13,600
Like here you go. 
We got an extra nine towered 

1107
00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:17,900
Mansion for you just we just had
an extra you know my collection 

1108
00:56:17,900 --> 00:56:19,800
of mansions. 
What's one less, right? 

1109
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:23,300
It's extremely fancy and nice 
but here's the thing it's a 

1110
00:56:23,308 --> 00:56:27,800
quirk of this who owns it now, 
like Dothraki don't just pass 

1111
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:29,300
their things down to their sons,
right? 

1112
00:56:29,300 --> 00:56:31,300
You don't you don't become 
called because your son was like

1113
00:56:31,300 --> 00:56:33,600
it happens, okay? 
Asian Ali, but that's because 

1114
00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:35,700
you earn it. 
Like, are you brought along and 

1115
00:56:35,700 --> 00:56:37,600
prove yourself? 
You don't just get it handed to 

1116
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:40,200
you, right? 
So who owns this thing now? 

1117
00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:41,600
They just probably just took it 
back. 

1118
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:44,800
They're like well well hold on 
to it till another called, just 

1119
00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:47,000
some other big call comes along.
Will give it to that guy. 

1120
00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:49,600
But Danny might show him being 
like so this is mine, right? 

1121
00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:52,100
Because it was my husband's, 
where's my manse? 

1122
00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:55,400
Yeah. 
I feel like a way for her to 

1123
00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:59,800
know you know negotiate another 
wrinkle to that is it probably 

1124
00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:03,400
wasn't just sitting empty while.
Always running around in his 

1125
00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:04,400
horse. 
Right me? 

1126
00:57:04,400 --> 00:57:06,600
What are probably? 
We're renting it out to people. 

1127
00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:09,900
They're probably holding events 
and storing stuff and like, they

1128
00:57:09,900 --> 00:57:14,000
are ya sure, it's yours. 
We'll see you later and this is 

1129
00:57:14,300 --> 00:57:16,100
to their regular business. 
You know, maybe they cleared 

1130
00:57:16,100 --> 00:57:19,700
some certain areas out or yeah, 
most valuable stuff but he 

1131
00:57:19,700 --> 00:57:23,400
hardly used it like he we see 
when he's there and then Danny 

1132
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:25,300
and viserys show up, he meets 
many leads. 

1133
00:57:25,300 --> 00:57:27,900
He goes to his khalasar out in 
the sea and then he's like, 

1134
00:57:27,900 --> 00:57:29,000
y'all can stay here. 
Danny. 

1135
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:31,500
And viserys could stay at the 
nine powered mansion. 

1136
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:33,800
REI drug only stays there like a
day or two. 

1137
00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:37,500
Like I'd rather be with my men. 
No, I'm a call. 

1138
00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:42,400
Okay, I get it, you would never 
notice or care that the top 

1139
00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:45,000
three floors of each Tower were 
storing grain. 

1140
00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:49,800
You know, they I guarantee you 
that whoever gave it to him with

1141
00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:53,300
still profiting off of ya now. 
So, there's a, I mentioned 

1142
00:57:53,300 --> 00:57:55,300
earlier comes up here. 
I had this in the notes when 

1143
00:57:55,300 --> 00:57:59,200
Danny shows up for her to meet 
Drogo, there's other calls. 

1144
00:57:59,300 --> 00:58:03,600
There's other Highborn. 
There's Red Priest, there's 

1145
00:58:03,800 --> 00:58:06,500
sellswords and Bravo. 
So there's lowborn and Highborn,

1146
00:58:06,500 --> 00:58:09,400
there's a leech, there's 
everything, but there's no women

1147
00:58:09,900 --> 00:58:11,900
09. 
He's like I'm the only woman 

1148
00:58:11,900 --> 00:58:12,600
here. 
What the hell? 

1149
00:58:13,500 --> 00:58:16,000
That's weird, right? 
Like I don't quite understand 

1150
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:19,000
that but I think maybe pentose 
might be even more gendered as a

1151
00:58:19,008 --> 00:58:23,200
sign of my feet worse than 
average which is pretty bad in 

1152
00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:25,400
this setting for occluding women
from Power. 

1153
00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:27,900
Like they might like they're not
even there like just like you 

1154
00:58:27,900 --> 00:58:29,900
would be some women. 
They're like this is a fancy 

1155
00:58:29,900 --> 00:58:31,900
like I said hang like that's 
weird, right? 

1156
00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:35,600
Is it a pin tucks thing? 
All right, adults, Rocky thing, 

1157
00:58:35,600 --> 00:58:37,100
but could be a Dothraki thing. 
Yeah. 

1158
00:58:37,100 --> 00:58:39,800
Maybe that was or even a crack. 
Yeah, that's a good point 

1159
00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:43,900
because it's Rocky women. 
Definitely are treated very low.

1160
00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:47,200
Yeah, maybe they just like I 
could see that. 

1161
00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:50,700
Like maybe the pentoshi were 
like, let's not have any women 

1162
00:58:50,700 --> 00:58:54,300
here because those Dothraki are 
gonna like lose take our women, 

1163
00:58:54,300 --> 00:58:57,800
if I'm there specifically rapers
and pillagers like what is 

1164
00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:00,500
anyone in this house? 
Gonna do some Dothraki Warrior 

1165
00:59:00,500 --> 00:59:03,700
comes up and just take it. 
Have some girl daughter takes 

1166
00:59:03,700 --> 00:59:06,200
your wife whatever. 
Well you got to fight them, just

1167
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:08,500
don't bring your wives your 
daughters to this event. 

1168
00:59:08,500 --> 00:59:09,900
You're right. 
You're right. 

1169
00:59:09,900 --> 00:59:12,500
I think this is a great guess. 
Yeah, I think you guys nailed 

1170
00:59:12,500 --> 00:59:13,700
it. 
I did not that have not occurred

1171
00:59:13,700 --> 00:59:15,600
to me but yeah, you're right. 
Yeah. 

1172
00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:18,000
Yeah. 
What happened at the wedding 

1173
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:22,800
like each other? 
Okay, yeah. 

1174
00:59:22,800 --> 00:59:26,400
It may even on some level make 
Danny see more special to yeah. 

1175
00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:29,000
Yeah, yeah. 
I might also make her seem more 

1176
00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:31,200
scared or be more switch. 
See what they're not. 

1177
00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:32,300
Definitely have that. 
Effect. 

1178
00:59:32,300 --> 00:59:35,400
She was it did that was her 
reactions, like, with a, with 

1179
00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:36,900
the start of fright. 
You notice that she was the only

1180
00:59:36,900 --> 00:59:38,900
woman there, something like 
that, and it's hard to be the 

1181
00:59:38,900 --> 00:59:40,300
most beautiful woman at the 
event. 

1182
00:59:40,300 --> 00:59:43,200
When you're the only woman. 
That's right. 

1183
00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:50,900
Tenon on the street is the most 
beautiful woman I've ever seen. 

1184
00:59:50,900 --> 00:59:54,900
Eating a horse Kebab Kebab. 
Yeah. 

1185
00:59:56,700 --> 00:59:59,300
By the Conchords reference. 
That's can get it for a second. 

1186
01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:01,800
Let's talk about government and 
religion in. 

1187
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:04,500
And toss. 
Here's a quote from your Leiria 

1188
01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:07,700
in pintos. 
We have a prince, my friend, he 

1189
01:00:07,700 --> 01:00:10,600
presides at ball and feasts and 
rides about the city. 

1190
01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:14,400
In a palanquin of Ivory and gold
3, Harold's go before him with 

1191
01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:18,400
golden scales of trade, Iron 
Sword of War, and the silver, 

1192
01:00:18,500 --> 01:00:20,700
and the silver scourge of 
justice. 

1193
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:23,900
And the first day of each new 
year, he must deflower. 

1194
01:00:23,900 --> 01:00:26,400
The made of the fields and the 
made of the Seas. 

1195
01:00:26,700 --> 01:00:27,900
Hell, are you? 
Lean forward? 

1196
01:00:28,100 --> 01:00:32,800
Elbows on the table. 
Yet her crop fail or Or be lost.

1197
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:36,000
We cut his throat to appease the
gods and choose a new prints 

1198
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:40,500
from monks, the 40 families. 
Now, this in the world of Ice 

1199
01:00:40,500 --> 01:00:43,800
and Fire describes this very 
similarly basic backs illyrio up

1200
01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:46,300
and it's suggest that this is 
perhaps a rising from the 

1201
01:00:46,300 --> 01:00:49,700
mysterious origins of pre 
Valerian pentose so yeah, maybe 

1202
01:00:49,700 --> 01:00:54,000
the beliefs of the original 
pentoshi are reflected here 

1203
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:56,400
because this yeah this isn't the
lyrium although they're not 

1204
01:00:56,400 --> 01:01:00,400
opposed to sacrifice, certainly 
they have different reasons for 

1205
01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:02,600
it and they certainly valyrians 
I I think they've learned would 

1206
01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:05,900
have ever been cool with 
sacrificing members of the 

1207
01:01:05,900 --> 01:01:09,100
elite, that's kind of against 
the way they run things. 

1208
01:01:09,100 --> 01:01:12,500
So it's pretty interesting that 
this anecdote comes at a time 

1209
01:01:12,500 --> 01:01:14,700
when Tyrion is lamenting, how he
can't go back to Westeros, 

1210
01:01:14,700 --> 01:01:16,800
because he's a regicide, can 
Slayer and Trader. 

1211
01:01:16,800 --> 01:01:21,300
And Italy are basically waves it
off, like that's nothing a king.

1212
01:01:21,300 --> 01:01:25,600
Can just say you're absolved. 
And it's all and it's just as 

1213
01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:26,900
simple as that. 
It really is. 

1214
01:01:26,900 --> 01:01:30,000
Just that simple a king and it 
will absolve you of all that, 

1215
01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:33,900
literally all of it and everyone
has to treat you like you have 

1216
01:01:33,900 --> 01:01:34,800
broken. 
No laws. 

1217
01:01:35,100 --> 01:01:38,300
Now doesn't mean they will but 
as far as the official Authority

1218
01:01:38,300 --> 01:01:41,200
goes you're all well and good. 
Hilarious right. 

1219
01:01:41,300 --> 01:01:45,200
If Danny or young Griff where to
just declare Tyrion, okay? 

1220
01:01:45,300 --> 01:01:48,700
Then he is a okay unless another
you know, less that King is then

1221
01:01:48,700 --> 01:01:52,000
overthrown and an anti Tyrion 
person is put in their place and

1222
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:54,700
then reverses all that. 
But basically illyrio is right 

1223
01:01:54,700 --> 01:01:57,700
to point to just the way their 
system works and even Tyrion 

1224
01:01:57,700 --> 01:02:01,300
isn't really taking proper 
account of and then he sort of 

1225
01:02:01,900 --> 01:02:04,400
looks down on, he's like, well, 
look and you look down on the 

1226
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:06,200
will of kings and princes 
because he's pentoshi in a 

1227
01:02:06,207 --> 01:02:11,800
society that has made a system 
out of sacrificing, the nobility

1228
01:02:11,800 --> 01:02:14,800
for their failures resent. 
Its results base not processed 

1229
01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:17,700
base, they're not like your plan
was bad, so we're going to kill,

1230
01:02:17,700 --> 01:02:20,100
you know, it's like bad things 
happen. 

1231
01:02:20,500 --> 01:02:24,100
They could be entirely, not your
fault, it can be BC, not your 

1232
01:02:24,100 --> 01:02:25,800
fault but the will of the Gods 
is what it is. 

1233
01:02:25,800 --> 01:02:28,700
I mean, we know what gods were 
talking about like who, which 

1234
01:02:28,700 --> 01:02:30,900
gods, like they do not even 
named here. 

1235
01:02:31,700 --> 01:02:34,500
Yeah, but this, this practice is
still in play. 

1236
01:02:34,700 --> 01:02:37,800
And in some ways, it's really 
good because it keeps the excess

1237
01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:41,000
of the nobility from that, like,
tyranny. 

1238
01:02:41,000 --> 01:02:44,300
And it prevents things like 
tyranny of one individual, it 

1239
01:02:44,300 --> 01:02:48,300
keeps like long-standing power, 
you know, its power changes 

1240
01:02:48,300 --> 01:02:51,800
every year, no matter what. 
That's good, you know, I got but

1241
01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:55,600
it sort of just shifts things 
towards the that power doesn't 

1242
01:02:55,600 --> 01:02:57,800
remove that power. 
Does it just shifts that power 

1243
01:02:57,800 --> 01:02:59,700
towards the magisters in the 40 
families? 

1244
01:02:59,800 --> 01:03:01,700
It's still there. 
It's still being wielded over 

1245
01:03:01,700 --> 01:03:03,400
the commons. 
It still is the reason there's 

1246
01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:07,200
no middle class now or so it 
seems but it's harder for the 

1247
01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:11,300
power to be mobilized. 
That's you know, it's harder 

1248
01:03:11,300 --> 01:03:12,100
for. 
Yeah. 

1249
01:03:12,100 --> 01:03:14,900
Heaps restaurants also keeps the
truck with internal rather than 

1250
01:03:14,900 --> 01:03:17,600
conquering. 
Yeah there's a lot of pros and 

1251
01:03:17,600 --> 01:03:20,400
cons because it also it things 
are less transparent. 

1252
01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:23,400
It's hard to know the 
motivations and actions of all. 

1253
01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:26,300
Sporty people behind the scenes 
of this one leader. 

1254
01:03:26,300 --> 01:03:29,600
But at least this one, L can't 
just declare war. 

1255
01:03:29,700 --> 01:03:31,900
Yeah. 
Or raise taxes twenty percent or

1256
01:03:31,900 --> 01:03:34,700
something like that. 
There's another, I remember 

1257
01:03:34,700 --> 01:03:37,300
talking about this in the past. 
I wish I could remember which 

1258
01:03:37,300 --> 01:03:39,700
episode it was with the context 
was, but I just remember 

1259
01:03:39,700 --> 01:03:42,700
thinking about the idea that 
it's maybe, I don't have to say 

1260
01:03:42,700 --> 01:03:44,600
exactly. 
But like, more fair, more better

1261
01:03:44,600 --> 01:03:47,500
motivation for the leader. 
I think it even says in a world 

1262
01:03:47,500 --> 01:03:51,400
of Ice and Fire that there is a,
it's sort of the prince, is sort

1263
01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:52,700
of just a figurehead, yeah, 
right. 

1264
01:03:52,700 --> 01:03:54,700
He doesn't, Really have that 
much power. 

1265
01:03:54,700 --> 01:03:57,000
He's mostly just a figurehead, 
probably kind of like the modern

1266
01:03:57,000 --> 01:03:58,700
Queen of England or King of 
England or whatever, you know, 

1267
01:03:59,200 --> 01:04:03,900
but there still is some ability.
Some leadership that that Prince

1268
01:04:03,900 --> 01:04:06,900
can wheel, right? 
Like if he does take the 

1269
01:04:06,900 --> 01:04:12,500
initiative to set up grain 
storage and then there's a 

1270
01:04:12,500 --> 01:04:14,600
drought, hey, good thing. 
I said out. 

1271
01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:17,700
This grain storage. 
We're not all starving, so you 

1272
01:04:17,700 --> 01:04:20,200
don't have to kill me. 
You know, they can plan ahead, 

1273
01:04:20,200 --> 01:04:23,400
they can take some action and 
wield some leadership. 

1274
01:04:23,600 --> 01:04:26,300
Even if it's only to keep 
themselves from being killed, 

1275
01:04:26,300 --> 01:04:30,600
it's still result with better 
policies and stabilization, and 

1276
01:04:30,700 --> 01:04:35,000
I can imagine a shrewd, 
proactive Prince, might do a 

1277
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:36,900
lot. 
Make a good positive difference,

1278
01:04:36,900 --> 01:04:39,800
especially the interacts with 
the different Lords, the chose 

1279
01:04:39,800 --> 01:04:43,000
him, but my guess is also, they 
don't usually do that. 

1280
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:44,800
Yeah, there aren't really aware 
they live. 

1281
01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:48,100
These pampered lives in Ivory 
Towers and or, you know, 

1282
01:04:48,900 --> 01:04:50,900
probably a mix of the Tatar 
prints. 

1283
01:04:50,900 --> 01:04:52,300
Like ran away is like screw 
that. 

1284
01:04:52,300 --> 01:04:55,800
I'm not gonna risk. 
Yeah, he didn't smart. 

1285
01:04:55,800 --> 01:04:58,600
I think it'd be a nice story to 
learn about some of the details 

1286
01:04:58,600 --> 01:05:02,000
of those people how they're 
chosen, how they deal with it 

1287
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:04,000
and start. 
Yeah, it is a lot of interesting

1288
01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:07,700
Dynamics from like a power and 
political standpoint. 

1289
01:05:07,700 --> 01:05:10,100
Yeah, it's really like they have
a basically, a built-in 

1290
01:05:10,100 --> 01:05:13,000
scapegoat for everything. 
So the nobility can possibly get

1291
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:15,500
away with whatever because they 
just, this guy always gets the 

1292
01:05:15,500 --> 01:05:17,500
blame for it. 
Someone that they put in front 

1293
01:05:17,500 --> 01:05:20,200
of everybody to say. 
Okay this is our next 

1294
01:05:20,200 --> 01:05:23,400
sacrificial, lamb for whatever 
crap we pull or whatever. 

1295
01:05:23,500 --> 01:05:25,800
Happens randomly. 
We're not going to take the fall

1296
01:05:25,800 --> 01:05:27,300
for it, no matter what. 
It's always going to be this 

1297
01:05:27,300 --> 01:05:30,700
person and it's never, again, 
it's never a princess of the 

1298
01:05:30,707 --> 01:05:32,300
field. 
There is the maiden of the 

1299
01:05:32,300 --> 01:05:34,200
fields in the maiden of the 
Seas, which are part of that. 

1300
01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:37,700
It says, they have to Prince, 
has to sleep with both of them 

1301
01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:41,200
as part of it, which is odd. 
But, you know, you can kind of 

1302
01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:44,500
see how that fits into ancient 
fertility beliefs, and things of

1303
01:05:44,500 --> 01:05:47,800
that nature. 
Yeah, Nina since bit, it's a bit

1304
01:05:47,800 --> 01:05:49,300
of having their cake and eating 
it too. 

1305
01:05:49,300 --> 01:05:51,500
There are advantages to having a
single executive, which is why 

1306
01:05:51,500 --> 01:05:53,700
so many governments. 
Do in times of Crisis, or 

1307
01:05:53,700 --> 01:05:56,000
danger, can be advantageous to 
have a single person who can 

1308
01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:58,900
make decisions on behalf of the 
state, in the best interest of 

1309
01:05:58,900 --> 01:06:02,600
the best interest of it. 
Obviously, it assuming leader 

1310
01:06:02,600 --> 01:06:04,700
actually has the best interest 
of the state in mind. 

1311
01:06:05,300 --> 01:06:07,200
The Magister of pentos. 
Get the benefit of having a 

1312
01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:10,000
single executive in the moments,
where a single executive is 

1313
01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:12,200
advantageous. 
Like if there is a war that guy 

1314
01:06:12,200 --> 01:06:14,700
is in charge, even though 
there's power behind the throne,

1315
01:06:14,700 --> 01:06:16,500
they can influence. 
Him, he still going to have 

1316
01:06:16,500 --> 01:06:19,300
executive Authority but it's 
only going to last for a year, 

1317
01:06:20,100 --> 01:06:23,500
which is odd like if a lot of 
Wars go for more than one year. 

1318
01:06:23,500 --> 01:06:26,200
So you can be kind of weird to 
change leadership Midstream 

1319
01:06:26,200 --> 01:06:27,300
there. 
They said they can be kind of 

1320
01:06:27,300 --> 01:06:31,100
problematic but anyway but 
ultimately it's a so very 

1321
01:06:31,100 --> 01:06:34,400
retrograde just putting 
everything on results rather 

1322
01:06:34,400 --> 01:06:36,600
than process. 
It just I just makes me squirm. 

1323
01:06:36,700 --> 01:06:39,100
It's like no matter what you 
just can't blame someone for 

1324
01:06:39,100 --> 01:06:40,000
something that's out of our 
control. 

1325
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:42,600
I hate the lack of 
accountability in the system. 

1326
01:06:42,600 --> 01:06:46,700
It's bothers me is you know, You
said though it's you know, as 

1327
01:06:46,700 --> 01:06:50,000
long as they have as long as 
their motivations are also 

1328
01:06:50,000 --> 01:06:53,000
what's in the best interest of 
the state but they are more 

1329
01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:56,900
likely to be motivated with in 
the best interest of their state

1330
01:06:56,900 --> 01:06:58,900
if their life depends on it. 
Yeah. 

1331
01:06:59,300 --> 01:07:00,200
Yeah. 
That's true. 

1332
01:07:00,700 --> 01:07:04,800
Nina rights of the government of
King's Landing and has like a 

1333
01:07:04,808 --> 01:07:07,000
parody of that. 
Where yeah, the ritual 

1334
01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:08,800
intercourse between The Prince 
and the maid of the see the 

1335
01:07:08,800 --> 01:07:10,500
made. 
It feels feels like a caricature

1336
01:07:10,500 --> 01:07:14,200
of the West Rossi obsession with
ceiling claims on power through 

1337
01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:17,100
dynastic marriages, which always
Puts the burden on the woman 

1338
01:07:17,200 --> 01:07:20,300
because they have to go join a 
new family and have kids with 

1339
01:07:20,300 --> 01:07:22,200
someone. 
They didn't choose and they're 

1340
01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:24,900
the glue that holds these 
alliances together without 

1341
01:07:25,100 --> 01:07:29,100
having very much saying to it, 
which intends Oz. 

1342
01:07:29,100 --> 01:07:30,900
It seems like, that's even more 
extreme. 

1343
01:07:30,900 --> 01:07:34,300
Like, the women are even more 
marginalized and used his 

1344
01:07:34,300 --> 01:07:38,100
possessions. 
And it also says a lot about 

1345
01:07:38,100 --> 01:07:41,100
illyrio like what his values are
and what he expects from this 

1346
01:07:41,100 --> 01:07:43,600
Arrangement, what he expects to 
get out of his investment. 

1347
01:07:44,600 --> 01:07:47,500
He expects to benefit from 
putting a gun on the throne or 

1348
01:07:47,500 --> 01:07:49,000
Danny or both of them or 
whatever. 

1349
01:07:49,300 --> 01:07:53,200
And to expects the puppets to 
dance Hebrides them. 

1350
01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:56,600
And once results for those 
crimes, like he bribed that one 

1351
01:07:57,100 --> 01:08:00,400
volunteen try Arc and like eight
enough to buy him, eight times 

1352
01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:02,400
over. 
It says, but it's just still 

1353
01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:05,100
won't behave the way he expects.
Now, that's a person that would 

1354
01:08:05,100 --> 01:08:09,800
be hard for illyrio to kill his,
the try Arc in volantis and well

1355
01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:12,000
that's far away. 
And you know, it's no easy 

1356
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:13,600
thing. 
Just wrap our there's trouble 

1357
01:08:13,600 --> 01:08:18,899
again But Danny, Oregon and a 
little maybe that's different 

1358
01:08:18,899 --> 01:08:21,399
things especially if they're 
they have proximity to him. 

1359
01:08:22,399 --> 01:08:26,899
So yes, very interesting. 
These motivations of ilario to 

1360
01:08:27,300 --> 01:08:30,399
these plays, he's making this 
money, he's paying his alliances

1361
01:08:30,700 --> 01:08:33,600
that he expects some sort of 
return expects to have some 

1362
01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:35,000
power behind the throne or 
whatever. 

1363
01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:37,300
Yes, that's a weird, crazy thing
about ilario. 

1364
01:08:37,300 --> 01:08:39,399
Yeah, no. 
That's little finger Tywin. 

1365
01:08:39,800 --> 01:08:42,700
You know, every other character 
has the same sort of most of the

1366
01:08:42,700 --> 01:08:44,700
characters in powers of 
position, have very similar 

1367
01:08:44,700 --> 01:08:47,000
sorts of motivations. 
Yeah, Nina. 

1368
01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:53,800
Also writes that In addition to 
the aspect of see marriage as 

1369
01:08:53,808 --> 01:08:58,100
being sealed by women and women 
who are expected to be virgins 

1370
01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:02,200
for these Arrangements that 
comes up pretty big. 

1371
01:09:02,300 --> 01:09:06,300
In those few examples of this 
like highwind being perplexed, 

1372
01:09:06,399 --> 01:09:08,800
the Tyrion won't sleep with 
Sansa like because once you do 

1373
01:09:08,800 --> 01:09:13,000
like she's basically yours, you 
know, in quotes like you've kind

1374
01:09:13,000 --> 01:09:15,200
of own her at that point. 
Like why don't you want to own 

1375
01:09:15,200 --> 01:09:17,100
her? 
You know like like I think of 

1376
01:09:17,100 --> 01:09:21,200
several reasons. 
Well, Tywin is still perplexed, 

1377
01:09:21,200 --> 01:09:23,399
the tyrians answers like well 
that's silly. 

1378
01:09:23,399 --> 01:09:26,399
You know you want her to love 
you like are you stupid? 

1379
01:09:26,500 --> 01:09:31,100
She's not going to like when she
met much time when dead that 

1380
01:09:31,100 --> 01:09:33,600
part I was right but doesn't 
have to be so rude about it but 

1381
01:09:33,600 --> 01:09:36,000
still you know. 
So yeah there's other examples 

1382
01:09:36,000 --> 01:09:39,100
like whence you have 
consummated, the marriage it's 

1383
01:09:39,100 --> 01:09:42,899
official like that is a thing 
that even in our society is 

1384
01:09:42,899 --> 01:09:46,700
somewhat established as like 
like that is a still legally 

1385
01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:50,100
like to this day. 
It's a much easier to get an 

1386
01:09:50,100 --> 01:09:53,100
annulment in a marriage if it 
hasn't been constant, right? 

1387
01:09:53,100 --> 01:09:58,100
Like this sex is still codified 
into marriage today in our world

1388
01:09:58,100 --> 01:09:59,800
and well in a lot of ways, but 
I'm not. 

1389
01:10:00,100 --> 01:10:03,000
Obviously you can't speak to all
World laws but I know that's 

1390
01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:05,600
true in America. 
I mean that's wild to think bad 

1391
01:10:05,600 --> 01:10:07,800
but of course we have there's a 
lot of religious influence on 

1392
01:10:07,800 --> 01:10:10,700
our lawmaking. 
So yeah, there you go. 

1393
01:10:10,700 --> 01:10:12,300
It's a parallel to the real 
world. 

1394
01:10:13,600 --> 01:10:16,900
So there's these 40 families. 
We hear the biggest power in 

1395
01:10:16,900 --> 01:10:18,400
pain tosses. 
He's 40 families, which is 

1396
01:10:18,400 --> 01:10:21,000
pretty interesting because there
were 40 dragonlord families. 

1397
01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:23,000
I wonder if they copied that 
number Shawn. 

1398
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:24,800
You suggest maybe see the way 
around, that's possible. 

1399
01:10:24,800 --> 01:10:29,900
Yeah, I'm not really sure Nina 
says that seems extremely 

1400
01:10:29,900 --> 01:10:33,000
doubtful. 
Why would the the dragonlords 

1401
01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:36,600
copy pentose because they're so 
pointy toity and you know the 

1402
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:39,400
elite won't copy someone else's.
I don't know if it's that simple

1403
01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:42,400
but yeah also just think the 
lariat probably had established 

1404
01:10:42,400 --> 01:10:45,300
that or earlier. 
But maybe not my accountant 

1405
01:10:45,300 --> 01:10:48,800
would probably be that and toss 
copied valyria but you're right 

1406
01:10:48,800 --> 01:10:51,500
Sean or maybe some other Central
thing that they both were 

1407
01:10:51,500 --> 01:10:52,200
copying. 
Okay. 

1408
01:10:52,200 --> 01:10:53,600
Also a jerk. 
Yeah, that makes sense. 

1409
01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:54,400
Yeah. 
Like an older. 

1410
01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:58,200
Something older maybe something 
from a shy or Tsar nor, who 

1411
01:10:58,200 --> 01:11:00,700
knows. 
But Nina also points out that 

1412
01:11:00,700 --> 01:11:05,800
there was the 40 families 41. 
Eventually after some famous 

1413
01:11:05,900 --> 01:11:09,500
Infamous deadlock electors, who 
historically chose the Doge's of

1414
01:11:09,500 --> 01:11:13,700
Venice, which not quite Genoa, 
but Barry Simms, Euler 

1415
01:11:13,700 --> 01:11:17,000
regionally connected. 
So you have the 40 families of 

1416
01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:21,500
Venice choosing the Doge, which 
is basically the prince so that,

1417
01:11:21,500 --> 01:11:24,400
yeah, that feels very much an 
dommage. 

1418
01:11:26,600 --> 01:11:28,600
The pentoshi gods. 
We don't know that much about 

1419
01:11:28,600 --> 01:11:29,900
them. 
We know that, you know, there's 

1420
01:11:29,900 --> 01:11:34,400
this this belief that may 
predate Valyrian influence about

1421
01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:37,000
the prince of prints and the 
Maiden of the fields and 

1422
01:11:37,000 --> 01:11:39,800
agencies. 
But apparently, there's more 

1423
01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:42,900
that just hasn't been revealed. 
Here's a quote from Fire and 

1424
01:11:42,900 --> 01:11:46,800
Blood Many are queer. 
God is worshipped in pentos. 

1425
01:11:47,100 --> 01:11:51,200
The dress was known to keep but 
one small household Idol, like 

1426
01:11:51,200 --> 01:11:54,900
unto a woman great with child 
with swollen breasts and bats 

1427
01:11:54,900 --> 01:11:57,800
head cheese. 
All the god I need is all he 

1428
01:11:57,800 --> 01:11:59,700
would say upon the matter. 
Now, what is that? 

1429
01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:01,900
She was all the god, I need 
like, that's your one. 

1430
01:12:01,900 --> 01:12:05,400
God, a bat headed pregnant lady.
That's weird, man. 

1431
01:12:05,400 --> 01:12:07,900
It's very lovecraftian. 
It's like George RR Martin's. 

1432
01:12:07,900 --> 01:12:11,500
Obscure default for obscure. 
God's is Lovecraft is like I'm 

1433
01:12:11,500 --> 01:12:14,400
gonna make it some animal head, 
which Really isn't that 

1434
01:12:14,400 --> 01:12:16,900
different from non low like 
Egyptian gods, all have animal 

1435
01:12:16,900 --> 01:12:18,500
heads. 
So maybe I'm maybe I'm reading 

1436
01:12:18,500 --> 01:12:20,500
too much Lovecraft into it 
because there is a lot of love 

1437
01:12:20,500 --> 01:12:24,100
crafting these other gods but 
still swollen breasts and 

1438
01:12:24,100 --> 01:12:27,700
pregnancy is very common for 
fertility Idols. 

1439
01:12:27,700 --> 01:12:31,800
They're very common for gods and
idols and things objects of 

1440
01:12:31,800 --> 01:12:36,800
worship so that part George is 
attaching to a very common 

1441
01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:38,200
religious tradition from The 
Real World. 

1442
01:12:38,200 --> 01:12:41,000
So that's that's cool. 
Now, of course, the sacrifice 

1443
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:43,700
part is also a big part of real 
world Traditions here. 

1444
01:12:43,800 --> 01:12:49,400
There and like Nina says, the 
Doge of Venice would do a 

1445
01:12:49,400 --> 01:12:52,300
marriage of the sea every year. 
The dojin is Court, would sail 

1446
01:12:52,300 --> 01:12:54,700
out to a Barrier island in the 
lagoon of Venice, patriarch of 

1447
01:12:54,708 --> 01:12:56,100
Venice would preach a 
benediction. 

1448
01:12:56,100 --> 01:12:58,900
And then, the Doge would throw a
ring into the sea while 

1449
01:12:58,900 --> 01:13:01,800
announcing that Dennis was 
thereafter, wedded to the Sea. 

1450
01:13:02,100 --> 01:13:06,000
And every year, they would renew
this, this is very similar, just

1451
01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:07,900
a lot less bloody and they're 
just getting rid of a ring. 

1452
01:13:07,900 --> 01:13:12,600
Instead of a, you know, a person
Nina rides, Casanova, joked that

1453
01:13:12,600 --> 01:13:15,700
if the famous Centaur, the 
ceremonial barrage of the Doge 

1454
01:13:15,700 --> 01:13:17,800
has capsized during the event. 
The Doge would finally be able 

1455
01:13:17,800 --> 01:13:19,700
to consummate the marriage. 
Ha ha. 

1456
01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:23,200
We love the name Casanova. 
One of our cats is he hasn't 

1457
01:13:23,200 --> 01:13:24,000
over. 
That's right. 

1458
01:13:24,800 --> 01:13:28,000
And Nina says, also, there is a 
parallel with the Aztec Feast of

1459
01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:29,800
talks. 
Glottal ahead of the feast, a 

1460
01:13:29,808 --> 01:13:32,100
young male warrior typically a 
prisoner of war would be chosen 

1461
01:13:32,100 --> 01:13:35,400
to impersonate the God 
tezcatlipoca and would live in 

1462
01:13:35,400 --> 01:13:39,400
luxury and be revered as a God 
for one year. 

1463
01:13:39,600 --> 01:13:42,500
At the end of the year, after 
marrying for women. 

1464
01:13:42,500 --> 01:13:46,000
So he gets the nice. 
Often this person are the guys, 

1465
01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:49,600
we sacrifice you get a year of 
extreme luxury culminating, with

1466
01:13:49,900 --> 01:13:54,400
marrying for women and then 
being killed like damn, and then

1467
01:13:54,400 --> 01:13:55,500
they would do that all over 
again. 

1468
01:13:55,500 --> 01:13:57,400
So, yeah, that's very similar as
well. 

1469
01:13:57,400 --> 01:13:58,700
You can really see a lot of it's
amazing. 

1470
01:13:58,700 --> 01:14:01,300
How many of these elements of 
pentos or in the real world. 

1471
01:14:01,300 --> 01:14:02,600
Like, Yeah. 
The Real World used to do this 

1472
01:14:02,600 --> 01:14:04,800
to y'all. 
Can I be chosen for that when 

1473
01:14:04,800 --> 01:14:06,200
I'm 75? 
Yeah. 

1474
01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:09,500
Terry would be that like, when 
I'm in a tea, you know, and a 

1475
01:14:09,500 --> 01:14:12,800
die with a full belly of wine. 
A hand on each braid. 

1476
01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:16,800
Yeah, that's Be close, right? 
Oh wait, bonus points is used 

1477
01:14:16,800 --> 01:14:19,200
for pronouncing, tezcatlipoca 
correctly. 

1478
01:14:19,400 --> 01:14:26,800
Did I think it would be cool. 
All right, thank you. 

1479
01:14:26,900 --> 01:14:28,800
Bonus points for pronouncing it 
smoothly. 

1480
01:14:28,800 --> 01:14:30,100
How effective? 
My head? 

1481
01:14:30,100 --> 01:14:32,700
Yeah, sound right. 
Just say it confidently. 

1482
01:14:34,300 --> 01:14:36,500
Most of y'all aren't going to 
know if I got it right or not 

1483
01:14:36,500 --> 01:14:42,300
like yeah, I probably right. 
So here's a quote, that combines

1484
01:14:42,300 --> 01:14:43,600
a lot of what we've learned 
here. 

1485
01:14:43,800 --> 01:14:46,600
Of the elements from what we've 
discussed, both Regional 

1486
01:14:46,600 --> 01:14:51,700
religious ancient history, 
sacrifice other ethnicities. 

1487
01:14:52,100 --> 01:14:57,800
All in one, an old Legend told 
in pentos claims the Andals 

1488
01:14:58,200 --> 01:15:02,400
slew, the swan maidens who lured
Travelers their deaths in the 

1489
01:15:02,400 --> 01:15:06,700
Velvet Hills that lied to the 
east every city, a hero, whom 

1490
01:15:06,700 --> 01:15:11,400
the pentoshi singers Paul, who 
co-led the anvils at that time. 

1491
01:15:11,600 --> 01:15:15,100
And it is said that he slew, the
seven, Maids, not for their 

1492
01:15:15,100 --> 01:15:20,500
crimes but instead as sacrificed
his Gods there are some maesters

1493
01:15:20,600 --> 01:15:24,400
who have noted that hook oh May 
well be a rendering of the name 

1494
01:15:24,500 --> 01:15:28,500
of Who-ville. 
So hook uh, certainly or hukou, 

1495
01:15:28,500 --> 01:15:33,000
maybe certainly sounds like it, 
fits with the naming conventions

1496
01:15:33,000 --> 01:15:36,900
from before the double consonant
+ O finisher. 

1497
01:15:36,900 --> 01:15:40,200
Yeah, very much on point there. 
That's cool. 

1498
01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:43,700
You got some and all Hero, the 
pentoshi had their own name for 

1499
01:15:43,700 --> 01:15:46,200
maybe sort of loosely in the 
tradition of his Aura High, 

1500
01:15:46,200 --> 01:15:48,400
where you have different names, 
maybe for the same heroic 

1501
01:15:48,400 --> 01:15:49,900
figure. 
This is, of course, not some 

1502
01:15:49,900 --> 01:15:53,800
sort of big, legendary hero 
that's remembered for all time. 

1503
01:15:53,800 --> 01:15:56,000
This is a much smaller scale 
person. 

1504
01:15:56,200 --> 01:16:01,700
But still, if they LED people to
slay the swan maidens who were 

1505
01:16:01,700 --> 01:16:03,300
capturing people and pulling 
them under. 

1506
01:16:03,300 --> 01:16:05,100
See, that's a pretty important 
thing. 

1507
01:16:06,300 --> 01:16:09,900
Stop the rate of the ravaging of
the the evil of the Swan 

1508
01:16:09,900 --> 01:16:13,000
maidens. 
Bassam kind of like sirens 

1509
01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:16,100
really. 
That's what I was equating in my

1510
01:16:16,100 --> 01:16:18,600
mind. 
Yeah, either way, I still, it 

1511
01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:22,400
still seems like a, I fought 
allying with my bare hands. 

1512
01:16:22,400 --> 01:16:25,800
I slayed the dragon with my 
sword, I killed some women. 

1513
01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:30,500
Do they sing? 
They sang though they were 

1514
01:16:30,500 --> 01:16:33,100
beautiful. 
Okay, what point am I supposed 

1515
01:16:33,100 --> 01:16:33,800
to be happy? 
Yeah. 

1516
01:16:33,800 --> 01:16:36,800
Well here's the heroism here. 
Like, what was what was the hard

1517
01:16:36,800 --> 01:16:38,500
part? 
Like what do you have to 

1518
01:16:38,500 --> 01:16:41,200
overcome? 
Like decency, you know, like 

1519
01:16:41,900 --> 01:16:43,300
Morals. 
You had no right to call 

1520
01:16:43,300 --> 01:16:44,700
overcome. 
My morals to Slade. 

1521
01:16:44,700 --> 01:16:46,100
He's innocent women. 
While maybe they're not 

1522
01:16:46,100 --> 01:16:49,500
interested, but yeah, he doesn't
sound good, doesn't it? 

1523
01:16:49,508 --> 01:16:52,900
Yeah. 
Now of course there's also non 

1524
01:16:52,900 --> 01:16:55,700
pentoshi Gods worshipped in 
pentos as we saw in Danny's 

1525
01:16:55,700 --> 01:16:57,400
wedding. 
There were red priests 

1526
01:16:57,400 --> 01:17:01,700
everywhere, including one that 
was bigger than alirio, which is

1527
01:17:01,700 --> 01:17:05,100
meant to show. 
I think the corruption the the 

1528
01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:08,800
degradation of asceticism and 
things like that. 

1529
01:17:08,800 --> 01:17:13,100
If you're a priest and you've 
eating and drinking that Much of

1530
01:17:13,100 --> 01:17:14,700
close to your God. 
Are you really? 

1531
01:17:14,700 --> 01:17:16,900
Unless your God is a god of, 
let's just like, you know, 

1532
01:17:17,600 --> 01:17:21,600
you're in the cult of Dionysus 
and I said the go right. 

1533
01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:24,100
Go right ahead, man. 
You know, but we're Laura isn't 

1534
01:17:24,100 --> 01:17:27,100
really about that. 
Like the narrow is like daunting

1535
01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:30,200
and yeah male solder doesn't 
even eat or drink barely really 

1536
01:17:30,200 --> 01:17:31,900
does exist to keep up 
appearances, right? 

1537
01:17:33,800 --> 01:17:35,500
All right, that's our first 
half. 

1538
01:17:35,500 --> 01:17:37,500
We don't know what other gods or
worship, intense Hast, but we 

1539
01:17:37,500 --> 01:17:39,700
can assume it's kind of similar 
to a lot of places that have a 

1540
01:17:39,708 --> 01:17:42,300
trading Port. 
Like, they're open to lots of 

1541
01:17:42,700 --> 01:17:45,600
different gods because you want 
the different Sailors to have 

1542
01:17:46,000 --> 01:17:50,100
their needs met and not to have 
too many trouble, but that too 

1543
01:17:50,100 --> 01:17:51,700
much. 
Do you want to be a safe haven, 

1544
01:17:51,700 --> 01:17:54,900
a safe space for whatever God, 
you want to worship. 

1545
01:17:55,000 --> 01:18:00,000
Whether it's the black goat of 
cohort or the Weeping Lady of 

1546
01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:05,200
lease or whatever. 
Yeah, so as we said at the 

1547
01:18:05,208 --> 01:18:09,700
beginning, you still have time 
to sign up to be part of our 

1548
01:18:09,700 --> 01:18:12,800
recurring Hangouts, to join and 
play quick, flash or trivia or 

1549
01:18:12,800 --> 01:18:14,100
whatever. 
We're going to be hosting that 

1550
01:18:14,100 --> 01:18:17,300
particular month. 
You can do that for two dollars 

1551
01:18:17,300 --> 01:18:18,700
a month. 
If you sign up for patreon, now 

1552
01:18:18,700 --> 01:18:21,900
that price goes away in August 
so you still have time. 

1553
01:18:21,900 --> 01:18:26,600
But that time is dwindling, we 
got whiplash trivia. 

1554
01:18:26,600 --> 01:18:28,900
Some of the other Jack box games
and next time we're going to 

1555
01:18:28,907 --> 01:18:32,700
just rip open, okay? 
This is news to me discourage 

1556
01:18:32,700 --> 01:18:36,000
people, fine. 
Depends what the Anchorage them 

1557
01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:42,600
on, Whose stripping. 
And yeah, so sign up now and 

1558
01:18:42,600 --> 01:18:45,800
lock your two dollar price in 
for the length as long as you 

1559
01:18:45,800 --> 01:18:47,800
want because that price will be 
gone, but you can grandfather 

1560
01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:51,800
yourself in and have a cheaper 
way to support us for the long 

1561
01:18:51,800 --> 01:18:54,500
term. 
Brandon Price has the prince 

1562
01:18:54,500 --> 01:18:57,600
deflower two maidens, a year for
sea and land Prosperity. 

1563
01:18:57,600 --> 01:19:00,600
Reminds me the king stag ritual 
in The Mists of Avalon pentoshi.

1564
01:19:00,600 --> 01:19:02,900
Definitely give me Celtic Gaelic
Vibes. 

1565
01:19:02,900 --> 01:19:05,700
Not just, not just that but 
other parts of it at least as 

1566
01:19:05,700 --> 01:19:07,600
well. 
Yeah, I totally agree. 

1567
01:19:07,700 --> 01:19:09,500
I'm not super familiar with the 
Mists of Avalon. 

1568
01:19:09,500 --> 01:19:13,600
That's know my mother read it. 
Yeah. 

1569
01:19:13,700 --> 01:19:15,600
Marion Zimmer Bradley of leave 
unfortunately Marion Zimmer 

1570
01:19:15,600 --> 01:19:19,300
Bradley is a horrible person but
that didn't come out until yeah,

1571
01:19:19,300 --> 01:19:20,800
I read the books. 
Worry later. 

1572
01:19:20,800 --> 01:19:23,000
Yeah, really, really bad 
personnlity. 

1573
01:19:23,100 --> 01:19:25,700
George thought, she George had 
cited her number times also 

1574
01:19:25,700 --> 01:19:27,400
because probably didn't know 
what a horrible person. 

1575
01:19:27,400 --> 01:19:30,100
She was because that really came
out like 10 years ago. 

1576
01:19:30,500 --> 01:19:31,900
Yeah. 
Like after her death Basin. 

1577
01:19:32,100 --> 01:19:36,300
So she she never had to answer 
for her crimes in life but my 

1578
01:19:36,300 --> 01:19:39,600
God stories her children tell 
are just unbelievably bad, sorry

1579
01:19:39,600 --> 01:19:40,300
about that. 
Y'all. 

1580
01:19:40,300 --> 01:19:42,200
If you're a fan of Marion, 
Zimmer Bradley is a rough way to

1581
01:19:42,200 --> 01:19:44,300
find that out. 
But yeah, The Mists of Avalon is

1582
01:19:44,300 --> 01:19:47,300
a really big story. 
It's really popular. 

1583
01:19:47,300 --> 01:19:49,400
Did really well. 
It was still widely read I 

1584
01:19:49,400 --> 01:19:51,200
believe. 
I don't think that many people 

1585
01:19:51,200 --> 01:19:54,500
still don't know about the 
Marion Zimmer Bradley is person 

1586
01:19:54,500 --> 01:19:56,000
which would be a turn-off for a 
lot of folks. 

1587
01:19:56,000 --> 01:19:58,000
But when people just, yeah, not 
aware of it. 

1588
01:19:58,000 --> 01:19:59,300
How can you take that into 
account? 

1589
01:19:59,600 --> 01:20:02,300
I can't comment specifically on 
the parallels because like I 

1590
01:20:02,308 --> 01:20:04,200
said, I haven't read it. 
But yeah, my mom used to tell me

1591
01:20:04,200 --> 01:20:05,200
a lot about it. 
She loved it. 

1592
01:20:05,500 --> 01:20:10,600
Yeah, they were good right on. 
Lala Tov, nice. 

1593
01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:12,000
Name. 
Love that name. 

1594
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:13,100
Grant. 
Lola top. 

1595
01:20:13,500 --> 01:20:15,500
I like not having firm ideas of 
population. 

1596
01:20:15,500 --> 01:20:16,800
It's not like anyone is going 
out and Counting. 

1597
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:18,400
Yeah. 
Why would they have a census? 

1598
01:20:18,400 --> 01:20:21,000
And why would they yeah? 
So use just doesn't even know 

1599
01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:24,300
how many draftable peasants he 
has in three villages, the live 

1600
01:20:24,300 --> 01:20:26,300
nearby him. 
Yeah, that's a great Point. 

1601
01:20:26,300 --> 01:20:30,200
Like a more well-to-do Lord 
might bother counting but sir 

1602
01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:32,000
Eustace you can use this is 
Lands. 

1603
01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:35,300
Have the feel of disrepair. 
Like he just doesn't care 

1604
01:20:35,300 --> 01:20:37,900
anymore. 
He's so sad and bitter and it 

1605
01:20:37,900 --> 01:20:41,100
might not have Has much to do 
with being well-to-do, or not 

1606
01:20:41,100 --> 01:20:44,900
with being competent, or 
motivated, or it's probably a 

1607
01:20:44,900 --> 01:20:49,000
lot of the above, not just one, 
but I just want to point out. 

1608
01:20:49,000 --> 01:20:52,500
So, Your shirt, your shirt, by 
the way, is east. 

1609
01:20:52,500 --> 01:20:54,600
Is the Valyrian steel? 
Cranwell? 

1610
01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:57,200
They, this is not. 
This is not the blur, it should 

1611
01:20:57,200 --> 01:20:59,300
be. 
But as we saw on TV, this is the

1612
01:20:59,300 --> 01:21:02,000
TV version of the crown, which 
looks like it's regular iron and

1613
01:21:02,000 --> 01:21:03,800
not blurring steel. 
It's supposed to be wearing 

1614
01:21:03,800 --> 01:21:06,700
steel. 
But this is the TV version and I

1615
01:21:06,700 --> 01:21:09,000
don't it doesn't look like 
Clarence teal to me they might 

1616
01:21:09,000 --> 01:21:13,600
be but they called it iron and 
show it's hard to capture it on 

1617
01:21:13,600 --> 01:21:14,600
a t-shirt. 
Yes. 

1618
01:21:15,500 --> 01:21:17,600
Wearing a Star Trek shirt I 
could classic Star Trek. 

1619
01:21:17,600 --> 01:21:20,800
Sure with her and Spock but I 
just want to Out that I have a 

1620
01:21:20,808 --> 01:21:23,300
t-shirt on underneath this, 
which is the guys are here. 

1621
01:21:23,300 --> 01:21:28,200
Molotov cocktails, actual 
Molotov. 

1622
01:21:28,300 --> 01:21:30,600
Yes, fight ever. 
Thought of that? 

1623
01:21:30,600 --> 01:21:32,900
I think I prefer a lot of 
cocktails. 

1624
01:21:33,200 --> 01:21:37,000
Why are you wearing two shirts? 
I'm worried because you bring 

1625
01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:39,000
are you active. 
Are you really working for to 

1626
01:21:39,000 --> 01:21:39,900
sure. 
Yeah he pulled his other shirt. 

1627
01:21:39,900 --> 01:21:41,400
I used to wear a t-shirt 
underneath. 

1628
01:21:41,400 --> 01:21:46,600
Yeah I woke up. 
I see Denver Summer. 

1629
01:21:46,700 --> 01:21:50,100
Yeah. 
Pretty warm right now actually. 

1630
01:21:51,100 --> 01:21:53,600
Krusty the Clown. 
Oh yeah. 

1631
01:21:54,100 --> 01:21:56,700
If you wear for several days, 
it'll be a crusty crusty. 

1632
01:21:56,700 --> 01:22:01,600
The I've got a crown, you've got
a clown. 

1633
01:22:05,300 --> 01:22:07,700
So don't frown. 
I suck. 

1634
01:22:07,700 --> 01:22:10,500
Recent history of Pentecost 
since most of our sources are 

1635
01:22:10,500 --> 01:22:13,500
westerosi, what much of what we 
know about pentose comes from 

1636
01:22:13,500 --> 01:22:16,700
dealings with Westeros, or when 
the conflicts are big enough for

1637
01:22:16,700 --> 01:22:20,100
Westeros to take note, of course
that is fueled by the proximity.

1638
01:22:20,200 --> 01:22:22,100
As well. 
We don't hear actually that much

1639
01:22:22,100 --> 01:22:24,800
about the Doom from pentos this 
perspective probably because, 

1640
01:22:24,800 --> 01:22:27,300
you know, even though it had to 
have been a big deal, the fact 

1641
01:22:27,300 --> 01:22:29,400
that there was a lesser 
concentration of Highborn, 

1642
01:22:29,400 --> 01:22:32,300
valyrians by less visits by 
dragonlords and less. 

1643
01:22:32,400 --> 01:22:34,800
Estates and mansions owned by 
dragonlords. 

1644
01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:37,100
It probably just had a smaller 
effect overall. 

1645
01:22:37,100 --> 01:22:39,900
I mean not that it wouldn't have
been big but compare it to 

1646
01:22:39,900 --> 01:22:43,100
cohort or where they raised 
where a dragon, lord raised the 

1647
01:22:43,100 --> 01:22:45,400
population to make an army or 
volantis. 

1648
01:22:45,400 --> 01:22:47,500
Where they just got all up in 
arms about conquering, the other

1649
01:22:47,500 --> 01:22:51,300
three cities Penthouse was more.
Like, How do we protect our 

1650
01:22:51,300 --> 01:22:53,600
Trade Network? 
You know, that's the people that

1651
01:22:53,600 --> 01:22:57,800
ruled their did their thing and 
you wonder how the transition of

1652
01:22:57,800 --> 01:23:02,100
the whole Prince of pinto system
and sacrifice how that existed 

1653
01:23:02,100 --> 01:23:05,100
under the Freehold versus, not 
like the did the system come 

1654
01:23:05,100 --> 01:23:07,700
back after the Freehold did they
not have that when the Freehold 

1655
01:23:07,700 --> 01:23:09,100
was around? 
I don't think so. 

1656
01:23:09,100 --> 01:23:13,400
I think they did because they 
were allowed to run the city of 

1657
01:23:13,400 --> 01:23:15,100
the way they want it. 
I mean that's why they're called

1658
01:23:15,100 --> 01:23:17,500
the free cities. 
The valyria buried is expected 

1659
01:23:17,800 --> 01:23:22,300
things from them, but it didn't.
Interrupt their day-to-day way 

1660
01:23:22,300 --> 01:23:25,500
of handling their business, or 
their local politics. 

1661
01:23:25,500 --> 01:23:28,900
So I think they probably still 
had that Prince of pentos thing.

1662
01:23:28,900 --> 01:23:30,900
Otherwise, it wouldn't have 
survived to the modern times, 

1663
01:23:30,900 --> 01:23:35,200
probably I doubt they re revived
a thousands of year old 

1664
01:23:35,200 --> 01:23:37,500
tradition, that no one had done 
and like 5,000 year, although 

1665
01:23:37,500 --> 01:23:41,100
the iron board did that with the
Kings mood still, it was 

1666
01:23:41,100 --> 01:23:44,000
unlikely. 
Kind of note was made, they were

1667
01:23:44,000 --> 01:23:44,900
redoing. 
Yeah. 

1668
01:23:44,900 --> 01:23:46,700
Exactly were like, oh, what a 
good idea. 

1669
01:23:46,700 --> 01:23:49,200
And that's and that's and it's a
one time thing, maybe not 

1670
01:23:49,200 --> 01:23:51,100
rather, maybe not And thing, I 
don't know, maybe it'll be a 

1671
01:23:51,100 --> 01:23:54,900
recurring thing but any too 
early to tell ya, what we did 

1672
01:23:54,900 --> 01:23:59,900
also get the perspective that it
has come to be more of a 

1673
01:23:59,900 --> 01:24:03,300
position of what's the word I'm 
looking for ceremonial? 

1674
01:24:03,300 --> 01:24:05,100
Someone's come to be more 
ceremonious. 

1675
01:24:05,300 --> 01:24:07,200
So that seems like something 
that would have had to have 

1676
01:24:07,200 --> 01:24:08,600
happen. 
I wonder if one of the three 

1677
01:24:08,600 --> 01:24:13,100
hold it might have actually been
more authoritative or meaningful

1678
01:24:13,200 --> 01:24:15,500
or maybe that's why I became so 
ceremonial because they could 

1679
01:24:15,500 --> 01:24:19,300
they had exercised less power 
under the freeholds guiding or. 

1680
01:24:19,300 --> 01:24:21,400
Yeah. 
Man, but maybe not if it just 

1681
01:24:21,400 --> 01:24:23,200
yeah but either way I can see it
becoming. 

1682
01:24:24,000 --> 01:24:26,800
Yeah, because of that more 
ceremonial because they had less

1683
01:24:26,800 --> 01:24:29,500
legal Authority Under the 
Freehold, maybe a now. 

1684
01:24:29,500 --> 01:24:32,800
And after so long, it didn't 
revert to being think of power. 

1685
01:24:32,800 --> 01:24:35,500
After thousands of years of just
being ceremonial. 

1686
01:24:36,400 --> 01:24:38,000
I kind of hope and expect to 
find out more. 

1687
01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:41,300
I mean, it just takes one more 
conversation between ilario and 

1688
01:24:41,600 --> 01:24:45,400
far as or Tywin or that time 
Tyrion or whoever, you know, to 

1689
01:24:45,900 --> 01:24:48,200
just two or three paragraphs can
just force explode. 

1690
01:24:48,200 --> 01:24:49,600
Yeah. 
Matter knowledge. 

1691
01:24:49,600 --> 01:24:51,000
And Yeah I agree. 
I think we're going to learn 

1692
01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:52,700
more. 
I mean, as we've said and it's 

1693
01:24:52,700 --> 01:24:55,700
not casual, there's a lot of 
reason to think there's still 

1694
01:24:55,700 --> 01:24:56,600
plenty. 
More is going to happen in 

1695
01:24:56,600 --> 01:24:59,900
pentos and that's got even more 
description of the city if not 

1696
01:24:59,900 --> 01:25:05,600
its history. 
So when volantis tried to begin,

1697
01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:09,700
their Imperial pretensions 
pentose was one of those who 

1698
01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:13,400
formed the alliance and stopped.
In fact, pentos and tie Roch. 

1699
01:25:14,400 --> 01:25:16,200
First, they had the help of 
argilac, the Arrogant, 

1700
01:25:16,200 --> 01:25:19,300
eventually they 10,000 Irish 
actually sent people to go talk 

1701
01:25:19,300 --> 01:25:24,100
to aegon the Conqueror before he
was the Conqueror and he joined 

1702
01:25:24,100 --> 01:25:27,200
them and, you know, burned that 
Fleet at license and thought 

1703
01:25:27,400 --> 01:25:30,400
volunteen. 
So pentose an egg on had a 

1704
01:25:30,400 --> 01:25:33,400
little bit of relationship 
there, the Dothraki emerging 

1705
01:25:34,200 --> 01:25:36,500
during the Doom, in the Centre 
of blood would be the start of 

1706
01:25:36,500 --> 01:25:38,600
their policy of huge bribes, 
right? 

1707
01:25:38,600 --> 01:25:39,900
That wouldn't have. 
They wouldn't have needed to do 

1708
01:25:39,900 --> 01:25:42,800
that before they would have had.
I mean, the diffraction wouldn't

1709
01:25:42,800 --> 01:25:45,000
be rain. 
Aging all the way across the 

1710
01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:46,900
entire Freehold to get the 
penthouse, that would be an 

1711
01:25:46,900 --> 01:25:49,500
extremely remote location for 
them to even begin to approach 

1712
01:25:49,700 --> 01:25:50,900
and the dragonlords would stop 
them. 

1713
01:25:50,900 --> 01:25:55,100
So yeah, there's no, this would 
be a completely, one of the 

1714
01:25:55,100 --> 01:26:00,100
biggest features of the new 
world of the post Doom world for

1715
01:26:00,200 --> 01:26:02,800
them to deal with the existence 
of the Dothraki. 

1716
01:26:02,800 --> 01:26:04,700
The emergence that's track. 
As probably when that Sphinx was

1717
01:26:04,700 --> 01:26:07,700
taken, right? 
And it would be a symbol of the 

1718
01:26:07,700 --> 01:26:09,400
new world. 
They're like, well we're no 

1719
01:26:09,400 --> 01:26:11,500
longer bowing down to the sinks 
as were bowing down to the 

1720
01:26:11,500 --> 01:26:13,500
people that can take the 
Sphinx's back to their home. 

1721
01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:17,400
Really really far away how they 
wield that thing on logs like 

1722
01:26:17,600 --> 01:26:18,900
damn. 
That's far. 

1723
01:26:20,400 --> 01:26:22,500
Yeah, but it's not nearly the 
first time they've done 

1724
01:26:22,500 --> 01:26:28,700
something like that. 
So we very frequency, pentoshi 

1725
01:26:28,700 --> 01:26:32,800
guests at Major West Rossi, made
events like weddings carnations 

1726
01:26:32,800 --> 01:26:33,900
turn. 
He's too many to list. 

1727
01:26:33,900 --> 01:26:37,700
Really, when Meg or went into 
Exile, after refusing to give up

1728
01:26:37,700 --> 01:26:42,500
his second wife, he took 
Blackfire his second wife and 

1729
01:26:42,500 --> 01:26:46,300
balerion with him to live there.
His second wife stayed when he 

1730
01:26:46,308 --> 01:26:48,000
returned. 
But as soon as he won his trial 

1731
01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:51,200
of seven, she came over. 
So she was treated well over 

1732
01:26:51,200 --> 01:26:53,400
there. 
In the meantime I don't suppose,

1733
01:26:53,400 --> 01:26:54,700
they would want to piss Meg or 
off. 

1734
01:26:54,700 --> 01:26:57,800
That's Sounds like a really dumb
thing to do Grand maester 

1735
01:26:57,800 --> 01:27:01,300
bennifer fled to pentos when Meg
or took over. 

1736
01:27:01,300 --> 01:27:05,200
So he like Meg or comes over 
bennifer goes the bench off like

1737
01:27:05,200 --> 01:27:09,800
a switch places and then when 
Meg or died Lourdes Buck well 

1738
01:27:09,800 --> 01:27:13,100
and Rowling furred fled to 
pentos and Men of bennifer 

1739
01:27:13,100 --> 01:27:16,000
returned beautiful. 
These people that were going to 

1740
01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:18,700
Penthouse to escape nigger, and 
then going back to King's 

1741
01:27:18,700 --> 01:27:21,200
Landing when Nick or died. 
So a lot of it just goes to show

1742
01:27:21,200 --> 01:27:24,800
that, it's just so close that 
it's convenient place to flee to

1743
01:27:24,800 --> 01:27:26,600
it. 
Easiest place to find a ship to.

1744
01:27:26,600 --> 01:27:29,800
You got to get out in a hurry. 
You're probably going to get out

1745
01:27:29,800 --> 01:27:32,000
to Penthouse. 
You know, like Aria got shipped 

1746
01:27:32,000 --> 01:27:33,800
the Bravo's. 
That was kind of random and more

1747
01:27:33,800 --> 01:27:36,800
likely that the first ship she 
stumbled on, would have been a 

1748
01:27:36,808 --> 01:27:38,100
pentoshi. 
Of course, they wouldn't have 

1749
01:27:38,100 --> 01:27:39,700
taken her because she didn't 
have money. 

1750
01:27:40,100 --> 01:27:42,400
They only to volunteer at the 
Bravo ship only took her cause 

1751
01:27:42,400 --> 01:27:45,100
she had the right coin, but 
still George didn't need a 

1752
01:27:45,100 --> 01:27:46,500
right. 
Like five different ships for 

1753
01:27:46,500 --> 01:27:48,200
her to get on before she found 
the right one. 

1754
01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:53,000
That would have been a bit of a 
waste Yeah, 22 magisters 

1755
01:27:53,000 --> 01:27:55,100
attended the golden wedding in 
49 AC. 

1756
01:27:55,100 --> 01:27:57,400
And that's an interesting number
because we don't know how many 

1757
01:27:57,400 --> 01:28:00,100
magisters there are but well, 
it's at least 22 and it's 

1758
01:28:00,100 --> 01:28:02,600
probably more than that because 
I doubt all of the magisters 

1759
01:28:02,600 --> 01:28:04,500
attended. 
There's probably a few who were,

1760
01:28:04,500 --> 01:28:08,300
like, two old travel, or just 
didn't want to, or didn't think 

1761
01:28:08,300 --> 01:28:11,200
was a good idea to put all your 
eggs in one golden wedding 

1762
01:28:11,200 --> 01:28:12,200
basket? 
I don't know. 

1763
01:28:14,600 --> 01:28:19,100
The next year, the Year 50, AC 
Rigo drives was made master of 

1764
01:28:19,100 --> 01:28:21,600
coin. 
He was shunned for his low birth

1765
01:28:22,000 --> 01:28:25,200
in pentos, but he had become the
richest man in the city. 

1766
01:28:26,000 --> 01:28:27,800
And Jairus was like well that's 
the guy. 

1767
01:28:27,800 --> 01:28:32,200
One for my master of coin. 
He became unpopular though in 

1768
01:28:32,200 --> 01:28:37,100
Westeros and eventually was 
murdered in the streets and 

1769
01:28:37,100 --> 01:28:41,900
Jerry's was yes Jerry's hunted 
down those responsible and was 

1770
01:28:41,900 --> 01:28:45,000
vicious to them. 
There was no creating there, 

1771
01:28:45,000 --> 01:28:50,100
that was all Justice for the 
murdered Alyssa farman passed 

1772
01:28:50,100 --> 01:28:52,500
through there. 
Several times under her real 

1773
01:28:52,500 --> 01:28:55,300
name, and her assumed name and 
before, and after she had her 

1774
01:28:55,300 --> 01:29:00,000
shipped sunchaser In 52 after 
being allies against the 

1775
01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:02,700
volunteers pentoshi. 
Entire Arch entered a trade War 

1776
01:29:03,300 --> 01:29:07,200
by the year. 55, the trade War 
had, run it along way and they 

1777
01:29:07,200 --> 01:29:10,300
were both getting tired of it. 
So they had jaehaerys try to 

1778
01:29:10,300 --> 01:29:14,200
conciliate for the like hey 
Jerry's can you make the deal 

1779
01:29:14,200 --> 01:29:17,200
for us? 
Can you negotiate a something 

1780
01:29:17,200 --> 01:29:19,400
for us? 
And he did you negotiate, a 

1781
01:29:19,407 --> 01:29:24,800
peace deal and both sides were 
really unhappy about Tyra hated 

1782
01:29:24,800 --> 01:29:28,200
it and the prince of pentos. 
Those who came to the deal, was 

1783
01:29:28,200 --> 01:29:32,600
sacrificed like, okay, well, 
there you go, that's that's not 

1784
01:29:32,600 --> 01:29:35,300
surprising. 
Is it sacrifice their friends 

1785
01:29:35,300 --> 01:29:36,400
because they didn't like the 
result. 

1786
01:29:36,500 --> 01:29:41,900
Mmm, the following year was when
the balerion Arabia episode 

1787
01:29:41,900 --> 01:29:46,900
occurred and there was reports 
that there was some monster in 

1788
01:29:46,900 --> 01:29:51,400
the Velvet Hills and so, 
William, the WASP a kingsguard 

1789
01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:54,700
night was dispatched with, with 
some soldiers, to go. 

1790
01:29:54,700 --> 01:29:59,600
See if it was balerion. 
It was not, it was an ambush and

1791
01:29:59,600 --> 01:30:04,000
they were all murdered sir. 
Williams head was returned to 

1792
01:30:04,500 --> 01:30:07,400
recode r. 
As I think, with Rico and today 

1793
01:30:07,400 --> 01:30:10,100
wanted to go, like one of the 
small counselors was like, we 

1794
01:30:10,100 --> 01:30:12,800
got to go punish the pentoshi 
and Joe Harris is like you're 

1795
01:30:12,800 --> 01:30:16,800
just brigands outside the city. 
Like that's not the fault of the

1796
01:30:16,800 --> 01:30:18,300
whole city. 
Like we can't blame them for 

1797
01:30:18,300 --> 01:30:22,900
that and Nina says, this may 
have been what illyrio is 

1798
01:30:22,900 --> 01:30:25,300
referring to there. 
Lived a den of robbers who 

1799
01:30:25,300 --> 01:30:28,400
preyed on all who pass This way.
Well, this was a den of robbers 

1800
01:30:28,400 --> 01:30:31,800
who they used. 
A really weird story of monster.

1801
01:30:31,800 --> 01:30:33,700
That was killing people, just 
maybe to hide the fact that it 

1802
01:30:33,708 --> 01:30:38,100
was them and keep would be 
authorities from coming. 

1803
01:30:38,100 --> 01:30:40,500
Because authorities might be 
willing to hunt down people, 

1804
01:30:40,500 --> 01:30:42,900
they may balk at hunting down 
some monster. 

1805
01:30:44,300 --> 01:30:46,700
But we'll in the WASP was 
specifically hunting for a 

1806
01:30:46,700 --> 01:30:48,900
monster, so they had to check it
out. 

1807
01:30:50,000 --> 01:30:52,400
Warehouse is why I'm The Wasp 
from, or is he from a house? 

1808
01:30:52,400 --> 01:30:55,500
Where do we know I don't recall?
I don't think he was Abby's 

1809
01:30:55,500 --> 01:31:01,300
burry but they have been a 
bastard. 

1810
01:31:01,800 --> 01:31:06,000
Yeah, yeah, I'm quite happy but 
someone could look that up while

1811
01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:07,500
we're sitting here. 
Yeah, I don't recall who would 

1812
01:31:07,500 --> 01:31:10,300
houses from how we do now. 
I think. 

1813
01:31:10,300 --> 01:31:13,200
So in Fire and Blood, and as 
portrayed on House of the 

1814
01:31:13,200 --> 01:31:16,100
Dragon, Damon Smallwood swollen.
Okay Williams. 

1815
01:31:16,100 --> 01:31:16,800
Whoa. 
Okay. 

1816
01:31:17,300 --> 01:31:18,500
Yeah. 
So, I don't know why it's called

1817
01:31:18,500 --> 01:31:21,000
blame the WASP I forget. 
I don't think I've ever heard 

1818
01:31:21,000 --> 01:31:22,200
that character before. 
So, it's cool. 

1819
01:31:22,300 --> 01:31:23,200
I wanted to Harry. 
Thank God. 

1820
01:31:24,100 --> 01:31:27,300
He was just a Sworn Sword, so 
while small. 

1821
01:31:27,500 --> 01:31:29,600
Whoa, whoa, okay. 
He was literally my dad does 

1822
01:31:29,600 --> 01:31:32,100
not. 
No last name, no house. 

1823
01:31:32,100 --> 01:31:34,600
Okay. 
All right, they probably took 

1824
01:31:34,600 --> 01:31:37,800
that as his personal sigil wasp 
that maybe that might explain 

1825
01:31:37,800 --> 01:31:40,600
it. 
Anyway, that's not too relevant 

1826
01:31:40,600 --> 01:31:43,400
to pentos in Fire and Blood. 
It has portrayed on houses 

1827
01:31:43,400 --> 01:31:46,300
Dragon, Damon and Elena were 
courted by the prince of pentos 

1828
01:31:46,300 --> 01:31:50,600
not just for their prestige. 
But because they saw the try, 

1829
01:31:50,600 --> 01:31:52,300
our key is an enemy and the 
track. 

1830
01:31:52,300 --> 01:31:54,200
He hated Damon. 
So they're like well the enemy 

1831
01:31:54,600 --> 01:31:57,900
of my enemy is my friend kind of
situation that scene was pretty 

1832
01:31:57,900 --> 01:32:00,500
cool on it, on House of the 
Dragon with the prince of pentos

1833
01:32:00,500 --> 01:32:03,600
like our Damon's is like sitting
there Reserve like yeah you're 

1834
01:32:03,600 --> 01:32:05,500
all your praise. 
I know what you're after here, 

1835
01:32:05,500 --> 01:32:07,100
bro. 
I know what it's, you know, I'm 

1836
01:32:07,100 --> 01:32:09,100
not blown away by all your 
generosity. 

1837
01:32:09,100 --> 01:32:11,500
I know I'm a badass, powerful 
bad as that. 

1838
01:32:11,500 --> 01:32:14,400
You want as an ally and I'm not 
going to come cheap. 

1839
01:32:16,200 --> 01:32:18,900
And of course, Bela and Raina 
were born there. 

1840
01:32:18,900 --> 01:32:21,000
And, of course, Lena died there 
too. 

1841
01:32:21,400 --> 01:32:24,400
But I'm the books Elena dies 
adrift Mark. 

1842
01:32:24,400 --> 01:32:27,000
So, that's a difference that's 
worth pointing out here. 

1843
01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:31,400
She doesn't die in pain toss in 
books and Raina is called Rain 

1844
01:32:31,400 --> 01:32:34,900
of Pain toss for a long time. 
So that's kind of fun to point 

1845
01:32:34,900 --> 01:32:38,400
out as well. 
At the end of the dance of the 

1846
01:32:38,400 --> 01:32:42,100
dragons and the year 131, pentas
joined with Bravo's and Laura to

1847
01:32:42,100 --> 01:32:45,900
take on the try our key. 
This is one of the many backs 

1848
01:32:45,900 --> 01:32:48,200
and force over the stepstones. 
Nothing new. 

1849
01:32:48,200 --> 01:32:51,000
We talked about in our 
stepstones episode and of 

1850
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:56,000
course, it doesn't stop here. 
It's a ongoing fight, but 

1851
01:32:56,000 --> 01:32:58,200
Penthouse was later. 
Cut out of the deal. 

1852
01:32:58,600 --> 01:33:01,700
They were an ally with braavos 
and tie Roch later. 

1853
01:33:01,700 --> 01:33:03,900
Laura app is also no longer part
of it by this time. 

1854
01:33:04,800 --> 01:33:07,900
And they just got excluded. 
They're like actually pen sauce,

1855
01:33:07,900 --> 01:33:09,200
you're not part of this. 
We're going to take over the 

1856
01:33:09,200 --> 01:33:11,600
stepstones with our other allies
and you get screwed. 

1857
01:33:12,700 --> 01:33:17,600
What's interesting about this is
10 toss had two centuries of War

1858
01:33:17,900 --> 01:33:21,100
off and on with Bravo's that 
overlaps this time of being 

1859
01:33:21,100 --> 01:33:22,900
their Ally. 
So maybe this is part of why 

1860
01:33:22,907 --> 01:33:24,900
they were cut out of the deal or
part of why it has to load is 

1861
01:33:24,900 --> 01:33:28,000
resumed because they were maybe 
had been some bad blood or just 

1862
01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:32,300
brought the Bad Blood back 
because yes six Wars six Wars 

1863
01:33:32,900 --> 01:33:36,400
with braavos. 
And so at least one of those six

1864
01:33:36,400 --> 01:33:38,300
would have happened by the point
where they were an ally with 

1865
01:33:38,300 --> 01:33:40,300
braavos. 
And then some point dumped from 

1866
01:33:40,300 --> 01:33:43,600
that Alliance because about 
Final of those six Wars was in 

1867
01:33:43,600 --> 01:33:46,700
the year 2009. 
So for it to have happened over 

1868
01:33:46,700 --> 01:33:49,000
the course of two centuries. 
We go we gotta go well before 

1869
01:33:49,000 --> 01:33:54,100
131 to cover two centuries from 
209 that's only like 78 years. 

1870
01:33:54,100 --> 01:33:57,700
Yeah. 
Since Bravo's, tie rajendran 

1871
01:33:57,700 --> 01:34:03,500
Dune ends up losing to the sneak
attack of oh confessed who 

1872
01:34:03,500 --> 01:34:06,600
earned his nickname open fist in
that sneak attack kind toss. 

1873
01:34:06,600 --> 01:34:08,500
Could look at that as our groups
like good thing they cut us out 

1874
01:34:08,500 --> 01:34:10,400
of the arrangement because then 
we would have fought a losing 

1875
01:34:10,400 --> 01:34:12,400
naval battle against the, what 
stassi. 

1876
01:34:12,400 --> 01:34:15,100
So I might have been work to 
their benefit. 

1877
01:34:15,100 --> 01:34:17,300
They weren't on the losing side 
of that, didn't have to worry 

1878
01:34:17,300 --> 01:34:19,400
about it and only a few years 
later. 

1879
01:34:19,400 --> 01:34:24,100
Things got so much better. 
The lysine spring was in full 

1880
01:34:24,100 --> 01:34:27,100
swing, huh? 
Poetry And trade in the narrow 

1881
01:34:27,100 --> 01:34:29,800
sea was peeking. 
It was booming and of course if 

1882
01:34:29,800 --> 01:34:32,100
trading the narrow sea is 
booming, Penthouse is benefiting

1883
01:34:32,100 --> 01:34:33,700
greatly as we. 
Let her Point as we pointed out 

1884
01:34:33,700 --> 01:34:36,700
earlier, they're literally in 
the center so they had to do 

1885
01:34:36,700 --> 01:34:39,600
quite well with that. 
But then we get back to these 

1886
01:34:39,600 --> 01:34:42,300
wars with Bravo's for, as I 
said, the first few centuries of

1887
01:34:42,300 --> 01:34:44,000
Targaryen rule in Westeros 
concern. 

1888
01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:47,600
Coincided with pentose fighting 
the six Wars with braavos. 

1889
01:34:48,100 --> 01:34:51,200
It may have been in part because
of that, something that changed 

1890
01:34:51,200 --> 01:34:57,400
in the narrow Seas Paradigm 
because of of aegon and Kings, 

1891
01:34:57,400 --> 01:35:01,400
Landing being built informed, 
and all this new stuff happening

1892
01:35:01,400 --> 01:35:05,100
may have changed just the 
scenario for a lot of houses and

1893
01:35:05,100 --> 01:35:07,600
that may have trickle-down 
effect of that may have been 

1894
01:35:08,000 --> 01:35:11,300
some new trade Wars fight and of
course we're still relatively 

1895
01:35:11,300 --> 01:35:13,200
new in braavos is existence at 
this point. 

1896
01:35:14,300 --> 01:35:18,500
So a lot of things changed 
ostensibly at least where I was 

1897
01:35:18,500 --> 01:35:20,200
just fighting over slave trade 
to. 

1898
01:35:20,200 --> 01:35:23,200
Yeah, right. 
Like I'm sure they don't mind 

1899
01:35:23,500 --> 01:35:26,200
the side effect of you know, the
loot and pillage. 

1900
01:35:26,200 --> 01:35:28,300
The land they take from pentos 
or whatever. 

1901
01:35:28,300 --> 01:35:30,900
But that was at least ostensibly
a motivation. 

1902
01:35:31,000 --> 01:35:31,700
Yeah. 
So yeah. 

1903
01:35:31,700 --> 01:35:34,400
There's there's at least. 
There's three things they fought

1904
01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:35,900
over. 
Apparently one was. 

1905
01:35:35,900 --> 01:35:37,900
Yes. 
Slavery Bravo's trying to stop 

1906
01:35:37,900 --> 01:35:41,600
them from it. 
Also over trade and also over 

1907
01:35:41,600 --> 01:35:45,300
land of course, land is the most
Bang, we see people fighting 

1908
01:35:45,300 --> 01:35:47,600
over, I suppose not ideological 
things. 

1909
01:35:47,600 --> 01:35:49,300
But in this case it's all those 
things. 

1910
01:35:49,800 --> 01:35:54,900
So pentas lost four of those six
Wars and one of their two wins 

1911
01:35:54,900 --> 01:35:57,300
it's pretty sketchy. 
That's all as I'll bring up in a

1912
01:35:57,308 --> 01:36:01,900
minute here it wasn't even 
necessarily a win, but the sixth

1913
01:36:01,900 --> 01:36:06,600
of the wars was in the year 2009
that ended in 2009 which is the 

1914
01:36:06,600 --> 01:36:08,800
same year as the Hedge Knight 
and the great spring sickness, 

1915
01:36:08,800 --> 01:36:12,100
the great spring sickness may 
have also in fact, likely that 

1916
01:36:12,100 --> 01:36:13,900
SOS as well. 
It probably wasn't only confined

1917
01:36:14,000 --> 01:36:17,200
in Westeros and if it hit 
Westeros, including King's 

1918
01:36:17,200 --> 01:36:19,700
Landing, which it hit big time. 
It almost really hit Penthouse, 

1919
01:36:19,700 --> 01:36:23,000
which is as it says daily, their
ships going back and forth 

1920
01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:25,300
between the two places, it's 
pretty hard for Penthouse to 

1921
01:36:25,300 --> 01:36:29,000
have escaped that. 
This would have been an ongoing 

1922
01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:31,200
thing that flared up from time 
to time between braavos and 

1923
01:36:31,200 --> 01:36:33,500
pentose need to says, the fact 
that braavos was willing to 

1924
01:36:33,500 --> 01:36:37,900
fight six Wars over at least in 
part over an ideological issue. 

1925
01:36:37,900 --> 01:36:41,000
Means that braavos was feeling 
pretty secure about itself in 

1926
01:36:41,000 --> 01:36:43,000
their position at the time that 
they would be willing. 

1927
01:36:43,600 --> 01:36:47,400
Like, you don't start 
ideological Wars when unless you

1928
01:36:47,400 --> 01:36:50,800
got crazy people or you're very 
well prepared to do like that. 

1929
01:36:50,800 --> 01:36:53,900
It's almost a luxury to start an
ideological war. 

1930
01:36:54,200 --> 01:36:56,200
It's a weird way to phrase it 
but in a kind of see where I'm 

1931
01:36:56,200 --> 01:36:58,200
coming from like it. 
Are expensive. 

1932
01:36:58,700 --> 01:37:00,500
And if you're not fighting me 
over things that you get a 

1933
01:37:00,508 --> 01:37:05,400
profit from then you must really
care about this and you must 

1934
01:37:05,400 --> 01:37:09,300
really have enough to afford it.
So the boat things have to be in

1935
01:37:09,300 --> 01:37:14,100
place for it to happen. 
So yeah, in that year 2009 while

1936
01:37:14,100 --> 01:37:18,000
people were dying of the spring 
sickness for princes of pentos 

1937
01:37:18,000 --> 01:37:22,700
were executed to two failures in
one year due to this failing in 

1938
01:37:22,700 --> 01:37:25,400
the war in the 5th. 
Prince was a guy named Navi 

1939
01:37:25,400 --> 01:37:28,000
owner Otis. 
He found a way to end the war. 

1940
01:37:28,400 --> 01:37:32,000
He apparently bribes some 
braavosi to lose a battle or at 

1941
01:37:32,000 --> 01:37:35,700
least make it look like a loss 
or something in between. 

1942
01:37:36,500 --> 01:37:39,400
Then he convinced the Magister 
of pentos to take the leverage 

1943
01:37:39,400 --> 01:37:44,200
of this sketchily one. 
Battle and used it to sue for 

1944
01:37:44,200 --> 01:37:48,400
peace. 
Of course, the piece he was 

1945
01:37:48,400 --> 01:37:52,200
trying to protect was all, is 
synonymous with his own head. 

1946
01:37:52,200 --> 01:37:53,800
All right. 
Because it basically, females 

1947
01:37:53,800 --> 01:37:56,400
here, he's gonna die. 
It's not to be the 5th. 

1948
01:37:56,400 --> 01:37:59,400
Prince executed in one year is 
where you got to be pretty thick

1949
01:37:59,400 --> 01:38:02,000
to not. 
See that possibility is like I 

1950
01:38:02,000 --> 01:38:03,500
do. 
I what am I so worried about? 

1951
01:38:03,500 --> 01:38:06,900
I don't this is where Nina says,
there may be a sense here in 

1952
01:38:06,907 --> 01:38:08,900
which the power of the 
magistrates is not infinite 

1953
01:38:08,900 --> 01:38:10,600
either. 
Yes, they can sack and murder 

1954
01:38:10,600 --> 01:38:12,300
and he prints. 
They like it pretty much any 

1955
01:38:12,300 --> 01:38:17,500
time but if they exercise that 
power too frequently, The puppet

1956
01:38:17,500 --> 01:38:20,200
won't do, what the puppet 
supposed to the puppets, going 

1957
01:38:20,200 --> 01:38:22,400
to. 
Very obviously try to save its 

1958
01:38:22,400 --> 01:38:24,700
own life right? 
When it that's just it's just 

1959
01:38:24,700 --> 01:38:28,000
too blatant in cases like this 
like four Prince's murdered or 

1960
01:38:28,000 --> 01:38:30,400
executed in like what six or 
seven months or whatever. 

1961
01:38:30,400 --> 01:38:31,900
However long it was less than a 
year. 

1962
01:38:32,500 --> 01:38:36,500
So like very blatant right? 
This this whole system of 

1963
01:38:36,900 --> 01:38:40,500
ritualised victim blaming or 
whatever. 

1964
01:38:40,500 --> 01:38:43,900
Not even victim-blaming, just 
blaming a guy scapegoat URI. 

1965
01:38:44,600 --> 01:38:47,500
It really starts to All off a 
little bit in situations like 

1966
01:38:47,500 --> 01:38:52,200
this where this becomes, you 
know, self-defeating it's also 

1967
01:38:52,400 --> 01:38:55,400
the limits of how and why people
accept the government can be 

1968
01:38:55,400 --> 01:38:58,900
pushed, you know, even are. 
He's the king at some point be 

1969
01:38:58,900 --> 01:39:01,300
like, okay, well we're going to 
revolt now at some point. 

1970
01:39:01,300 --> 01:39:03,100
You don't have trust in the 
leader. 

1971
01:39:03,800 --> 01:39:07,400
If ostensibly the idea is that 
it's the princes fault and so 

1972
01:39:07,400 --> 01:39:09,400
we're going to kill him and get 
her new home will like, he's 

1973
01:39:09,400 --> 01:39:11,900
only been Prince for like a 
month, like how much of his 

1974
01:39:11,900 --> 01:39:14,600
fault? 
Like even a people at some point

1975
01:39:14,600 --> 01:39:16,800
are going to have to blame I 
want to something other than the

1976
01:39:16,800 --> 01:39:19,300
prince, who hasn't been there 
long enough to actually have an 

1977
01:39:19,300 --> 01:39:21,500
effect, right? 
And so, they're going to start 

1978
01:39:21,500 --> 01:39:25,100
to look to other Solutions. 
Hey, you magistrates choosing 

1979
01:39:25,100 --> 01:39:27,400
this Prince? 
Maybe it's your fault, you know.

1980
01:39:27,400 --> 01:39:30,600
Like they're probably, they're 
probably happy and, or encourage

1981
01:39:30,600 --> 01:39:32,500
this Prince to come up with a 
plan. 

1982
01:39:32,500 --> 01:39:33,600
That's a good point. 
Yeah, you're right. 

1983
01:39:33,600 --> 01:39:36,300
Like, how do they how do the 
magisters Escape culpability for

1984
01:39:36,300 --> 01:39:37,600
their selection of the first 
place? 

1985
01:39:37,600 --> 01:39:40,300
Like, well, we killed him, but 
you chose him like, you picked 

1986
01:39:40,300 --> 01:39:42,300
this guy. 
So shouldn't some of the blame 

1987
01:39:42,300 --> 01:39:43,500
falls on you. 
Yeah, it's a good point. 

1988
01:39:43,500 --> 01:39:45,500
Like, if there are two, if 
they're not careful around at 

1989
01:39:45,500 --> 01:39:47,500
the Whole, whole narrative could
flip on them. 

1990
01:39:47,500 --> 01:39:50,300
And the whole point is for them 
to absolve themselves 

1991
01:39:50,300 --> 01:39:54,400
permanently of any event of just
well, and if sent resolve them. 

1992
01:39:54,400 --> 01:39:58,900
So, yeah. 
So that's, that's a really good 

1993
01:39:58,900 --> 01:40:00,100
point. 
And need also makes another good

1994
01:40:00,100 --> 01:40:01,800
point about from braavos is 
perspective. 

1995
01:40:01,800 --> 01:40:03,500
Yes, there's the ideological 
thing. 

1996
01:40:03,500 --> 01:40:06,600
They want to end, put away from 
you away with slavery, but also 

1997
01:40:07,200 --> 01:40:10,400
in terms of the land, yeah, we 
talked about fertile, it is. 

1998
01:40:10,400 --> 01:40:14,100
So it's very valuable land and 
Bravo's itself is low on 

1999
01:40:14,100 --> 01:40:15,600
farmable land, they're living in
that Lagoon. 

2000
01:40:16,100 --> 01:40:18,100
In a misty Lagoon. 
They don't have a lot of 

2001
01:40:18,600 --> 01:40:22,400
Farmland. 
So controlling Farmland was very

2002
01:40:22,400 --> 01:40:26,700
valuable to them, not to mention
they can build a ship in one day

2003
01:40:26,900 --> 01:40:29,500
Bravo, scan very famously, the 
Arsenal can do that Arsenal with

2004
01:40:29,500 --> 01:40:34,800
a capital a right and but to 
fuel the Arsenal you got to have

2005
01:40:34,800 --> 01:40:37,800
Timber to build those ships with
and the Flatlands. 

2006
01:40:37,800 --> 01:40:40,400
We know there's Orchards is 
probably other Timber. 

2007
01:40:40,400 --> 01:40:43,700
Some of those Orchards might 
literally be just Timber Farms, 

2008
01:40:43,800 --> 01:40:45,400
right? 
That's a thing we have Farms 

2009
01:40:45,400 --> 01:40:47,500
also. 
So, so either way, you know, 

2010
01:40:47,500 --> 01:40:49,900
they're not buying all their 
wood from The Forest of cohort 

2011
01:40:49,900 --> 01:40:51,000
other. 
They probably are getting some 

2012
01:40:51,000 --> 01:40:53,300
of it that way, but they'd 
rather get it themselves and not

2013
01:40:53,300 --> 01:40:56,300
have to pay for it. 
If you conquer the proper land, 

2014
01:40:56,500 --> 01:40:58,300
it has the trees and you can do 
that. 

2015
01:40:58,600 --> 01:41:01,800
And relevant to that is pentoses
relative weakness, and 

2016
01:41:01,800 --> 01:41:07,000
vulnerability to Warfare, which 
the braavosi were sure to take 

2017
01:41:07,000 --> 01:41:13,600
note of and after losing this 
Final War, the sixth War, the 

2018
01:41:13,600 --> 01:41:17,000
one they sued for peace over 
when Lost in 2009. 

2019
01:41:17,700 --> 01:41:21,100
This is when they abolish 
slavery by order of the 

2020
01:41:21,100 --> 01:41:24,500
braavosi. 
This is a Nicole mentioned by 

2021
01:41:24,508 --> 01:41:29,900
illyrio but also their Navy was 
reduced to 20 ships gravas. 

2022
01:41:29,900 --> 01:41:32,900
Like you can't have more than 20
warships for your state Navy and

2023
01:41:32,900 --> 01:41:34,800
no sellsword to can't hire 
sellswords. 

2024
01:41:34,800 --> 01:41:37,200
I don't know how they would be 
stopped from doing the eyebrow. 

2025
01:41:37,200 --> 01:41:40,000
And look they hire sellswords 
would probably be to fight 

2026
01:41:40,000 --> 01:41:43,100
braavos and to throw off this 
Earth has illness this yoke. 

2027
01:41:43,100 --> 01:41:46,600
That braavos is placed on them 
but they would have to do that 

2028
01:41:46,600 --> 01:41:49,400
secretly before. 
Bravo's got wind of it and maybe

2029
01:41:49,700 --> 01:41:51,700
that would have to be handled 
carefully time. 

2030
01:41:51,700 --> 01:41:55,100
It's on how How many and how 
quick they could do it without 

2031
01:41:55,100 --> 01:41:56,500
it being discovered. 
Yeah. 

2032
01:41:56,500 --> 01:41:58,300
And in the meantime, what are 
they going to do with just 20 

2033
01:41:58,300 --> 01:42:00,200
ships, like they are going to 
build some ships and secret. 

2034
01:42:00,200 --> 01:42:01,600
That's really hard to do 
building ships. 

2035
01:42:01,600 --> 01:42:03,200
And secret is hard hard to pull 
off. 

2036
01:42:03,800 --> 01:42:06,300
It's enough to defend what they 
have, but not enough to go with 

2037
01:42:06,300 --> 01:42:09,200
tax someone else, which is what 
braavos is worried about. 

2038
01:42:09,200 --> 01:42:13,000
Yeah, And so that's super 
relevant going forward as well. 

2039
01:42:13,000 --> 01:42:15,200
The only 20 ships in no 
sellsword, we talked about why 

2040
01:42:15,500 --> 01:42:17,100
Ben Johnson's vulnerable. 
Well, there you go. 

2041
01:42:17,100 --> 01:42:19,500
That's a damn, like, that's all 
they have. 

2042
01:42:20,000 --> 01:42:25,800
Danny like one strafing, run on 
drogue on and that's, that's the

2043
01:42:25,800 --> 01:42:29,500
20 ships gone right there. 
You know, and let alone someone 

2044
01:42:29,500 --> 01:42:31,700
else coming like a potato 
Prince. 

2045
01:42:31,700 --> 01:42:34,000
Brings the wind blowing in like 
those ships aren't good for 

2046
01:42:34,000 --> 01:42:36,300
anything against his land 
assault, you know? 

2047
01:42:37,900 --> 01:42:41,000
Worth noting that it's still 
like I was trying to point out 

2048
01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:43,000
earlier that I think that they 
have. 

2049
01:42:43,700 --> 01:42:47,300
I think their defense is the 
value that they provide to 

2050
01:42:47,300 --> 01:42:50,800
everyone by being this Hub of 
Commerce, it just doesn't 

2051
01:42:50,800 --> 01:42:54,500
behoove anyone trying to could 
take over Taiwan, if they wanted

2052
01:42:54,500 --> 01:42:56,700
to relatively easily, but it's 
just not worth it. 

2053
01:42:56,700 --> 01:42:59,700
Like, you know, it's not worth 
destroying this profitable 

2054
01:42:59,700 --> 01:43:02,500
sinner. 
You make more from it by it 

2055
01:43:02,500 --> 01:43:05,600
existing than taking it over. 
Yeah, you know, same to kind of 

2056
01:43:05,600 --> 01:43:08,400
like Japan after world. 
War to had to forego its 

2057
01:43:08,400 --> 01:43:12,900
military but the US and most 
rest of the world didn't want it

2058
01:43:12,900 --> 01:43:15,300
to continue warring it wanted it
to be productive. 

2059
01:43:15,300 --> 01:43:19,400
Everyone benefited from it 
focusing on productivity rather 

2060
01:43:19,400 --> 01:43:23,900
than Warfare and so I I feel 
like that's a big part of where 

2061
01:43:24,200 --> 01:43:27,100
and tosses security come from. 
Is the lack of motivation to 

2062
01:43:27,100 --> 01:43:27,700
attack? 
Yeah. 

2063
01:43:27,700 --> 01:43:30,400
Now, that might fall apart. 
It had, you know, same thing 

2064
01:43:30,400 --> 01:43:33,300
could be said of Genoa, but it's
still got attacked, you know, 

2065
01:43:33,300 --> 01:43:35,600
several times or yeah. 
I like the Dothraki. 

2066
01:43:35,600 --> 01:43:36,600
Right? 
Like the this Rocky. 

2067
01:43:36,700 --> 01:43:38,700
Have they get tons of money from
pentos? 

2068
01:43:38,700 --> 01:43:41,200
What's different about pentoses 
like well then he's like, why 

2069
01:43:41,200 --> 01:43:44,200
don't the the frackie just 
destroy the slaver City, the 

2070
01:43:44,200 --> 01:43:46,900
easy like well they have nowhere
to sell their slaves to well 

2071
01:43:46,900 --> 01:43:49,800
they're not selling their slaves
to pentos there is because 

2072
01:43:49,800 --> 01:43:52,200
slavery is illegal there. 
Right now there's there is 

2073
01:43:52,200 --> 01:43:55,700
slaves in pentos that's actually
our next section especially 

2074
01:43:55,700 --> 01:43:57,300
because the diffraction are 
going to travel all the way to 

2075
01:43:57,300 --> 01:43:59,000
Pentecost to sell, even if they 
could sell them there. 

2076
01:43:59,000 --> 01:44:02,100
Why would they go all the way to
pentos when asked for yunkai 

2077
01:44:02,100 --> 01:44:04,400
marine? 
Valenti's are all much closer to

2078
01:44:04,400 --> 01:44:05,700
the Dothraki? 
Sea cohort. 

2079
01:44:05,700 --> 01:44:08,000
All these places are Way closer.
I don't know why they would walk

2080
01:44:08,000 --> 01:44:09,100
all the way over there to do 
that. 

2081
01:44:09,600 --> 01:44:11,300
It would only come all the way 
to pentos. 

2082
01:44:11,800 --> 01:44:16,100
So Mary Daenerys or something 
like that or if they if 

2083
01:44:16,100 --> 01:44:19,600
something very big changes and 
they actually went to attack it 

2084
01:44:19,900 --> 01:44:21,300
but yeah. 
They come there they get their 

2085
01:44:21,300 --> 01:44:23,800
money and then they go home. 
So yeah, that's part of like 

2086
01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:26,200
making numbers up. 
But they can go to pentos once a

2087
01:44:26,208 --> 01:44:29,700
year and get you know, eight 
thousand gold pieces, or they 

2088
01:44:29,700 --> 01:44:32,800
could sack the city and get 
thirty thousand gold pieces. 

2089
01:44:32,900 --> 01:44:34,700
One time and then nothing next 
year. 

2090
01:44:34,700 --> 01:44:36,600
Nothing yet. 
Nothing X here, so it's better. 

2091
01:44:36,700 --> 01:44:40,500
To just maintain this profitable
system. 

2092
01:44:40,600 --> 01:44:42,500
Yeah. 
Like if gahl drug awarded sack 

2093
01:44:42,500 --> 01:44:44,200
pentose? 
Well, he just destroyed the city

2094
01:44:44,200 --> 01:44:46,500
where they gave him a nine 
tiered Mansion. 

2095
01:44:46,500 --> 01:44:49,600
Like does he when he rather just
have that and not fight at all 

2096
01:44:49,600 --> 01:44:52,800
and just go fight someone else 
and also it just the district he

2097
01:44:52,800 --> 01:44:56,200
liked a challenge and it doesn't
wouldn't be one there like this 

2098
01:44:56,200 --> 01:45:00,900
crazy challenge will be the 
other Dothraki horde. 

2099
01:45:00,900 --> 01:45:03,800
Is it also go to Penny attribute
the now mad at them? 

2100
01:45:03,800 --> 01:45:05,600
Yeah. 
Other free cities. 

2101
01:45:05,600 --> 01:45:07,700
It depend on Trevor. 
Other than now feel like they 

2102
01:45:07,700 --> 01:45:09,800
need to do something about the 
built where I could like people 

2103
01:45:09,800 --> 01:45:12,100
would mobilize and response. 
It's true. 

2104
01:45:12,500 --> 01:45:14,100
Brandon Price. 
And the super chats is great 

2105
01:45:14,100 --> 01:45:15,600
stream. 
I, I'm glad I was able to make 

2106
01:45:15,600 --> 01:45:16,800
it live for first time in a 
while. 

2107
01:45:16,800 --> 01:45:19,700
Well, to any of you else who 
has, who has trouble making it 

2108

2110

Super chats are a great way to 
support the show. 

2111
01:45:27,900 --> 01:45:30,500
You can also support us. 
The other means we suggest the 

2112
01:45:30,500 --> 01:45:33,700
time patreon Spotify or 
donations through our website. 

2113
01:45:34,300 --> 01:45:37,100
Yeah, let's talk about the 
situation of slavery Then tossed

2114
01:45:37,100 --> 01:45:42,100
because well, it has been 
banned, but it still happens and

2115
01:45:42,200 --> 01:45:45,500
we see that in a number of 
places through a number of povs 

2116
01:45:45,800 --> 01:45:49,500
talk about it. 
First off with Tyrion slaves, 

2117
01:45:49,700 --> 01:45:53,000
the dwarf asked pointedly the 
fat man. 

2118
01:45:53,000 --> 01:45:57,000
Stroke one of the prongs in his 
oiled, yellowbeard a gesture 

2119
01:45:57,000 --> 01:46:00,800
Tyrion found remarkably. 
Obscene savior is forbidden in 

2120
01:46:00,800 --> 01:46:04,600
pintos by the term, the treaty, 
the braavosi imposed on us, 100 

2121
01:46:04,600 --> 01:46:08,400
years ago, still they won't Not 
refuse, you Tyrion figured it 

2122
01:46:08,400 --> 01:46:11,100
out quickly enough but long 
before that in her first 

2123
01:46:11,100 --> 01:46:16,000
chapter, Danny did as well. 
Here's that quote illyrio 

2124
01:46:16,000 --> 01:46:19,600
servants entered bowed and set 
about their business. 

2125
01:46:20,000 --> 01:46:23,300
They were slaves a gift from one
of the magisters many tooth 

2126
01:46:23,300 --> 01:46:26,800
racki friends. 
There was no slavery in the free

2127
01:46:26,800 --> 01:46:30,400
city of pentos. 
Nonetheless they were slaves. 

2128
01:46:30,900 --> 01:46:35,400
The old woman, small and gray as
a mouse never said a word, but 

2129
01:46:35,400 --> 01:46:37,800
the girl made up for Or it she 
was a lie. 

2130
01:46:37,800 --> 01:46:40,400
Rios favorite, a fair haired 
blue. 

2131
01:46:40,400 --> 01:46:44,400
Eyed went of 16 who chattered 
constantly as she worked. 

2132
01:46:44,500 --> 01:46:47,500
Another Fair haired blue eyed 
person, very young. 

2133
01:46:47,500 --> 01:46:52,700
That lirio is favorite. 
Now, remember, when Billy Rios, 

2134
01:46:52,700 --> 01:46:55,700
like I almost slept with Danny 
myself, but thought she was too 

2135
01:46:55,700 --> 01:46:58,100
timid and then I summon my bed 
warmer and slept with her 

2136
01:46:58,100 --> 01:47:03,900
instead it's probably this girl.
Yeah, so he's gross. 

2137
01:47:04,900 --> 01:47:06,100
Yeah but we knew you knew that 
already. 

2138
01:47:06,100 --> 01:47:09,100
Yeah but the point here is to 
talk about how these women and 

2139
01:47:09,100 --> 01:47:11,300
slit servants have no choice. 
They're basically slaves. 

2140
01:47:11,300 --> 01:47:14,000
Like Sean said earlier, a lot of
them are bonds bonded slaves, 

2141
01:47:14,000 --> 01:47:16,300
their in-depth permanently to 
illyrio. 

2142
01:47:17,200 --> 01:47:21,300
This is a city that is very 
sophisticated and its way of 

2143
01:47:21,300 --> 01:47:23,500
getting around the laws imposed 
on them. 

2144
01:47:23,700 --> 01:47:27,500
They've had Almost 100 years, 
it's been the year 2009 is when 

2145
01:47:27,500 --> 01:47:31,400
the supposed on this, they've 
had 81 ish or 91 issue years of 

2146
01:47:31,600 --> 01:47:35,100
figuring out how to have slaves 
without officially having slaves

2147
01:47:35,600 --> 01:47:38,500
and that encompasses all of 
Leo's life Delirious entire 

2148
01:47:38,500 --> 01:47:42,700
lifespan is come in this span of
existence for pentos when 

2149
01:47:42,900 --> 01:47:46,800
slavery has been banned but 
still happens quite a lot. 

2150
01:47:47,000 --> 01:47:49,200
It doesn't really look like 
they're hiding it all that. 

2151
01:47:49,200 --> 01:47:51,800
Well I mean a 13 year old girl 
figured it out immediately, 

2152
01:47:51,900 --> 01:47:54,100
right? 
I mean Danny is insightful but 

2153
01:47:54,100 --> 01:47:57,500
you can't be the only He won you
know, but others have noticed 

2154
01:47:57,500 --> 01:48:03,100
this but what braavos is I guess
content to just let things be 

2155
01:48:03,100 --> 01:48:05,800
the way they are for now and 
that could be through very 

2156
01:48:05,800 --> 01:48:08,600
interesting if Danny become this
pleased with this arrangement 

2157
01:48:08,600 --> 01:48:11,500
mean she knows she noticed it 
right away and she gonna come 

2158
01:48:11,500 --> 01:48:14,700
back and be like, all right 
we're time to have a reckoning 

2159
01:48:14,700 --> 01:48:18,800
for this so-called free City. 
We've already talked about how 

2160
01:48:18,800 --> 01:48:21,400
the slaves will probably rise up
in volantis and welcome her 

2161
01:48:21,400 --> 01:48:24,800
there. 
Lice least maybe, as well. 

2162
01:48:25,100 --> 01:48:27,000
Roch. 
Perhaps I don't expect all these

2163
01:48:27,000 --> 01:48:29,800
things to happen. 
As they happen on screen, I 

2164
01:48:29,800 --> 01:48:34,100
could see us my head, Canon kind
of is Danny having a chapter in 

2165
01:48:34,100 --> 01:48:37,400
pentos where she's looking back 
on having just taken lease and 

2166
01:48:37,400 --> 01:48:39,400
volantis. 
Maybe maybe we see volantis, but

2167
01:48:39,400 --> 01:48:41,800
Lisa and mirror, and tie Roch 
kind of doubt. 

2168
01:48:41,800 --> 01:48:43,500
It kind of doubt. 
We see those firsthand from 

2169
01:48:43,500 --> 01:48:47,300
things b.o.b., maybe we do, but 
in minor flashbacks after she's 

2170
01:48:47,300 --> 01:48:49,200
already done it yet. 
I'd be a way to get all that 

2171
01:48:49,200 --> 01:48:53,300
done without getting bogged down
and helping us having three 

2172
01:48:53,300 --> 01:48:56,700
different city taking. 
An over chapters, right? 

2173
01:48:56,700 --> 01:48:59,100
Just in all the detail. 
I mean, I'm all for that, but I 

2174
01:48:59,100 --> 01:49:01,000
don't see it coming. 
You know? 

2175
01:49:01,500 --> 01:49:03,600
It would mean another book. 
Yeah, it's like a whole bunch of

2176
01:49:03,600 --> 01:49:07,200
Daddy's Conquest throughout SOS,
right? 

2177
01:49:08,400 --> 01:49:10,600
It could really go a lot of 
different ways like pentoshi 

2178
01:49:10,600 --> 01:49:14,000
could be like I this is bull. 
You guys is fake. 

2179
01:49:14,300 --> 01:49:16,500
Non slavery. 
Thing you're doing needs to end.

2180
01:49:16,500 --> 01:49:19,800
I'm going to torch the whole 
thing or because they're so 

2181
01:49:19,800 --> 01:49:22,900
weak. 
Maybe she just is able to knock 

2182
01:49:22,900 --> 01:49:26,700
them down and impose their will 
on them which, you know, we're 

2183
01:49:26,700 --> 01:49:29,300
sort of way might save them from
being destroyed because they're 

2184
01:49:29,300 --> 01:49:31,100
so weak. 
She might be able to coerce them

2185
01:49:31,100 --> 01:49:34,900
into better Behavior whether or 
not that hold is another matter,

2186
01:49:34,900 --> 01:49:38,000
but In fact that they have a 
small military actually might 

2187
01:49:38,000 --> 01:49:40,900
save them because they're, 
they're not too tough nut to 

2188
01:49:40,900 --> 01:49:42,000
crack. 
She doesn't have to just burn 

2189
01:49:42,000 --> 01:49:44,600
the whole thing down and start 
over, although she, she might 

2190
01:49:44,600 --> 01:49:48,100
decide to do that anyway, but 
for now, she's actually kind of 

2191
01:49:48,108 --> 01:49:50,400
loyal to malaria. 
She's like, I don't want to give

2192
01:49:50,800 --> 01:49:52,600
the city to the Tattered. 
Prince Ali. 

2193
01:49:52,600 --> 01:49:54,600
Rio lives there and where he was
our friends, like, 130. 

2194
01:49:56,500 --> 01:50:00,100
I wouldn't call him your friend.
He might be a benefactor Patron 

2195
01:50:00,500 --> 01:50:03,400
supporter perhaps but yeah, he's
not your friend. 

2196
01:50:03,400 --> 01:50:06,900
He will turn on you if he can, 
if he needs to Or if it sees the

2197
01:50:06,900 --> 01:50:10,400
profit in it. 
So, Danny may still have a 

2198
01:50:10,407 --> 01:50:15,500
little bit of naivete there. 
But Tyrion, that's not fooled 

2199
01:50:15,500 --> 01:50:18,800
and Tyrion is not unlikely to be
advising her and could quickly 

2200
01:50:18,800 --> 01:50:22,200
disabuse her of all that. 
On the other hand, barristan 

2201
01:50:22,500 --> 01:50:26,800
says, Danny should trust illyrio
which is bad advice but 

2202
01:50:27,600 --> 01:50:31,600
Harrison's, not the most skilled
at Intrigue or such things 

2203
01:50:31,600 --> 01:50:35,900
that's not his Forte. 
A side effect of braavos is 

2204
01:50:35,900 --> 01:50:38,200
small military. 
I'm sorry ten tosses small 

2205
01:50:38,200 --> 01:50:43,500
military, imposed by braavos. 
Is that a lot of people who 

2206
01:50:43,500 --> 01:50:47,100
would be soldiers, people who 
have that attitude, who were 

2207
01:50:47,100 --> 01:50:49,000
kind of have a warrior bent to 
them. 

2208
01:50:49,000 --> 01:50:50,300
There's no military for them to 
join. 

2209
01:50:50,300 --> 01:50:53,000
So there's a lot of sellswords 
up for higher there. 

2210
01:50:54,000 --> 01:50:56,200
A lot of pentoshi sellswords 
exist. 

2211
01:50:56,700 --> 01:50:59,700
Its kind of alongside that like 
performers and people have to 

2212
01:50:59,700 --> 01:51:02,800
make a living with their bodies 
and their their natural 

2213
01:51:02,800 --> 01:51:05,000
abilities rather than anything 
they can learn because that's 

2214
01:51:05,000 --> 01:51:07,200
not available to them. 
So that could be important as 

2215
01:51:07,200 --> 01:51:09,800
well. 
I have this odd earlier when you

2216
01:51:09,808 --> 01:51:12,400
mentioned that is when it comes 
to being a sellsword, is the 

2217
01:51:12,700 --> 01:51:15,600
willingness to risk your body? 
However, good a soldier you are 

2218
01:51:15,600 --> 01:51:19,700
or aren't just your willingness 
to get in the line of fire is, 

2219
01:51:19,700 --> 01:51:21,600
you know, when you don't have 
anything else, when you don't 

2220
01:51:21,600 --> 01:51:24,800
have another route out of 
poverty or slavery, that's a 

2221
01:51:24,800 --> 01:51:26,300
risk. 
Some people are willing to take.

2222
01:51:26,300 --> 01:51:28,700
Yeah, absolutely part of how you
good. 

2223
01:51:28,700 --> 01:51:31,300
Good being a warrior. 
Is you have to go to war soon? 

2224
01:51:31,500 --> 01:51:33,200
Yep. 
Take some risks and come out of 

2225
01:51:33,200 --> 01:51:34,200
it. 
You know, if you're lucky enough

2226
01:51:34,200 --> 01:51:36,800
to survive then got some some 
credibility. 

2227
01:51:37,700 --> 01:51:41,100
So here's another quote from the
world of Ice and Fire that talks

2228
01:51:41,100 --> 01:51:44,700
about how this sort of is it. 
Or isn't it not slavery? 

2229
01:51:44,700 --> 01:51:47,500
Situations handle these 
Provisions. 

2230
01:51:47,500 --> 01:51:49,900
Remain the law in pentos to this
day. 

2231
01:51:50,100 --> 01:51:53,700
Those certain observers have 
noted that many pentoshi ships. 

2232
01:51:53,800 --> 01:51:57,400
Invade the prohibition against 
the slave trade by running 

2233
01:51:57,400 --> 01:52:00,400
lysine or me. 
Rish banners of their masks. 

2234
01:52:00,400 --> 01:52:04,900
When challenged whilst in the 
city itself there are tens of 

2235
01:52:04,900 --> 01:52:10,100
thousands of free. 
Poop seem to be slaves in all 

2236
01:52:10,100 --> 01:52:13,900
but name for they are collared 
and branded much like their 

2237
01:52:13,900 --> 01:52:18,900
counterparts in lease near anti 
Roch and subject to similar 

2238
01:52:18,900 --> 01:52:24,800
Savage disciplines in law. 
These Bond servants, are free 

2239
01:52:24,800 --> 01:52:29,200
men and women with the right to 
refuse service, as they will 

2240
01:52:29,900 --> 01:52:33,000
provided, they're not in debt to
their masters. 

2241
01:52:33,600 --> 01:52:37,000
Almost all of them are. 
However, since the value of 

2242
01:52:37,000 --> 01:52:42,500
their labor is off less than the
costs of the food clothing and 

2243
01:52:42,500 --> 01:52:47,100
shelter provided them by those. 
They serve so that their debt 

2244
01:52:47,100 --> 01:52:50,500
Rose rather than diminishes over
time. 

2245
01:52:50,800 --> 01:52:53,700
You'd think they'd want to just 
return outright slavery but 

2246
01:52:53,700 --> 01:52:56,400
there might be elements in the 
city that prefer this sort of 

2247
01:52:56,400 --> 01:52:58,700
under the radar Arrangement. 
Even though it's not really that

2248
01:52:58,700 --> 01:53:02,100
concealed it might there might 
be more money in it for them. 

2249
01:53:02,100 --> 01:53:06,600
I'm certainly not ascribing 
empathic sympathetic reasons 

2250
01:53:06,600 --> 01:53:08,800
here, just whatever. 
Ever makes them more money. 

2251
01:53:09,400 --> 01:53:12,700
Like they're given gift like the
whole thing of giving gifts like

2252
01:53:12,700 --> 01:53:14,300
the Dothraki. 
Like that's not buying and 

2253
01:53:14,300 --> 01:53:15,300
selling slaves. 
Technically. 

2254
01:53:15,300 --> 01:53:17,600
So there will take legal ease 
way to get around like oh, I 

2255
01:53:17,600 --> 01:53:20,600
didn't buy these slaves, they 
were given to me by a Dothraki. 

2256
01:53:21,600 --> 01:53:23,900
Do I have to free them now? 
I like, well, how does that even

2257
01:53:23,900 --> 01:53:25,400
work? 
You know, I don't know. 

2258
01:53:25,400 --> 01:53:28,900
Probably, there's probably weird
secure arbitrary, like, 

2259
01:53:28,900 --> 01:53:32,200
exceptions, coded into the law, 
things like that. 

2260
01:53:33,000 --> 01:53:35,700
Probably the biggest current 
motivation is to maintain this 

2261
01:53:35,700 --> 01:53:38,500
piece with braavos, right? 
They made this treaty this 

2262
01:53:38,500 --> 01:53:41,000
agreement, the entered a war 
that included. 

2263
01:53:41,000 --> 01:53:44,100
No slavery, no sellswords and so
on. 

2264
01:53:44,100 --> 01:53:48,300
Yeah, so they may, you know, 
maybe they put on one it for 

2265
01:53:48,300 --> 01:53:52,600
the, you know, economic 
benefits, you know, of denying 

2266
01:53:52,600 --> 01:53:56,600
people their rights but they but
they don't, but they are more 

2267
01:53:56,600 --> 01:54:01,000
than willing to semantically 
worded and organize it in a way 

2268
01:54:01,000 --> 01:54:03,700
that keeps piece of braavos and 
and on some level braavos might 

2269
01:54:03,700 --> 01:54:05,900
even get it to. 
They might be like they're not 

2270
01:54:05,900 --> 01:54:08,200
really following the war the 
rules. 

2271
01:54:09,500 --> 01:54:12,000
But how far did they have to go 
before we declare war again? 

2272
01:54:12,000 --> 01:54:14,600
You know, you know, yeah, that's
a big deal like the clerk 

2273
01:54:14,600 --> 01:54:16,600
because it's probably a they're 
still trading partner, most 

2274
01:54:16,600 --> 01:54:19,600
certainly and like a lot of it 
aspects, a lot of people have 

2275
01:54:19,600 --> 01:54:23,200
powers in Bravos would be kind 
of wary of disturbing that just 

2276
01:54:23,200 --> 01:54:26,300
to do something that maybe won't
have any effect. 

2277
01:54:26,300 --> 01:54:29,000
Like if they can enforce it and 
like it'll probably just go back

2278
01:54:29,000 --> 01:54:32,400
to this way like, yeah, I don't 
know, it might even temporarily 

2279
01:54:32,400 --> 01:54:35,900
make things worse for the 
quote-unquote slaves and in and 

2280
01:54:35,900 --> 01:54:39,300
also they might have these 
unintended consequences with Our

2281
01:54:39,300 --> 01:54:42,900
alliances and trade agreements. 
Like if they attack pentos and 

2282
01:54:42,900 --> 01:54:46,700
that makes I don't know, Cersei 
mad or whatever and then she 

2283
01:54:46,700 --> 01:54:50,800
wants to do something and Bravo.
You know it's not that you know 

2284
01:54:50,800 --> 01:54:53,400
I the G11 times drinking here. 
Yeah. 

2285
01:54:53,900 --> 01:54:55,300
Right. 
Even when you're trying to do 

2286
01:54:55,300 --> 01:54:58,600
the right thing, sometimes you 
have to be careful to not make 

2287
01:54:58,600 --> 01:55:01,100
things or your goal doing the 
right thing is to make things 

2288
01:55:01,100 --> 01:55:02,100
better for everybody. 
Yeah. 

2289
01:55:02,200 --> 01:55:05,300
So when it comes to clearing War
you might not be making things 

2290
01:55:05,300 --> 01:55:06,900
better for everybody got to be 
really careful. 

2291
01:55:06,900 --> 01:55:08,900
Yeah, that's true. 
Like like it like Danny face the

2292
01:55:08,900 --> 01:55:09,800
same. 
Same problem. 

2293
01:55:09,800 --> 01:55:11,400
You know in Marine this is 
something she's learning much as

2294
01:55:11,400 --> 01:55:11,800
like. 
Yeah. 

2295
01:55:11,800 --> 01:55:14,700
Like in the long term, all the 
people who would be enslaved 

2296
01:55:14,700 --> 01:55:16,900
their lives are better. 
But in the short term a few at 

2297
01:55:16,900 --> 01:55:18,800
least some percentage of these 
slaves are actually going to 

2298
01:55:18,800 --> 01:55:22,000
have a worse life because they 
had pretty good positions. 

2299
01:55:22,000 --> 01:55:23,200
Like they were treated pretty 
well. 

2300
01:55:23,200 --> 01:55:25,500
You know, like now they don't 
even have a job and having you 

2301
01:55:25,500 --> 01:55:27,600
have a place to live, like they 
have their freedom. 

2302
01:55:27,600 --> 01:55:30,800
But you're an 80 year old person
that's been a slave your whole 

2303
01:55:30,800 --> 01:55:33,600
life, you really like wanted 
like what do you have now? 

2304
01:55:33,600 --> 01:55:37,200
Like that's not good, right? 
So there's there is Yeah It's 

2305
01:55:37,200 --> 01:55:40,500
Tricky, you know, of course the 
bad NG is true but you just have

2306
01:55:40,500 --> 01:55:43,500
to plan it out well and make 
sure that would think about the 

2307
01:55:43,500 --> 01:55:46,200
implications and on and on and 
it's not that easy especially 

2308
01:55:46,200 --> 01:55:49,100
for like this young girl, who 
has no World experience, you 

2309
01:55:49,100 --> 01:55:51,800
know, like the leaders of 
Bravo's don't haven't 

2310
01:55:51,800 --> 01:55:53,600
necessarily been figured out. 
No, sensibly. 

2311
01:55:53,600 --> 01:55:55,900
They have more experience and 
resources and such. 

2312
01:55:56,000 --> 01:55:59,000
Yeah. 
So earlier I misspoke. 

2313
01:55:59,200 --> 01:56:04,000
You asked if we know of a female
pentoshi and we do know one and 

2314
01:56:04,000 --> 01:56:06,800
her name does. 
And today Tiana of the tower 

2315
01:56:06,800 --> 01:56:10,400
Tiana of pentos Meg or one of my
Gore's wives, who was also 

2316
01:56:10,400 --> 01:56:13,600
basically his master Whispers. 
She was a torturer pretty nasty 

2317
01:56:13,600 --> 01:56:16,600
piece of work all around. 
She was a bastard. 

2318
01:56:16,600 --> 01:56:19,900
Daughter of a Magister and 
apparently a dancer very 

2319
01:56:19,900 --> 01:56:24,200
attractive. 
And yeah, we'll talk about her 

2320
01:56:24,200 --> 01:56:28,100
in detail some other day because
He's an interesting character 

2321
01:56:28,700 --> 01:56:30,300
and we'll have plenty of time 
for her. 

2322
01:56:30,600 --> 01:56:33,900
When we're dealing with Beggars 
rain, or maybe her specifically 

2323
01:56:35,100 --> 01:56:37,400
Rigo dries is another one. 
We talked about a little bit. 

2324
01:56:37,400 --> 01:56:40,400
He used Jerry's his master of 
coin, we talk about the Savage 

2325
01:56:40,500 --> 01:56:43,800
Miss of his death and Jerry's is
Revenge on those people or 

2326
01:56:43,800 --> 01:56:46,500
Justice against those people. 
He's a good story that will tell

2327
01:56:46,500 --> 01:56:50,000
another time a lot of parallels 
become him and lirio so that's 

2328
01:56:50,000 --> 01:56:51,800
interesting. 
We'll talk about him. 

2329
01:56:51,800 --> 01:56:54,100
Both of them. 
Kind of were lowborn that Rose 

2330
01:56:54,100 --> 01:56:57,100
to be really powerful and Rich 
and involved in politics. 

2331
01:56:57,100 --> 01:56:59,300
Although lirio is a lot more 
involved in politics and Rigo 

2332
01:56:59,300 --> 01:57:02,800
was so illyrio. 
Yeah, he's often referred to as 

2333
01:57:02,808 --> 01:57:05,600
a cheesemonger, which maybe 
gives us a Go to some of the 

2334
01:57:06,200 --> 01:57:08,800
food that's made their. 
I mean Penthouse isn't known for

2335
01:57:08,800 --> 01:57:11,900
luxury goods, it is known for 
trade and we know we hear about 

2336
01:57:11,900 --> 01:57:15,500
all the farm lands and Orchards 
around the area. 

2337
01:57:15,500 --> 01:57:18,900
So there may be a lot of food as
part of the exports and imports 

2338
01:57:18,900 --> 01:57:21,600
well more exports and imports 
probably but exporting some food

2339
01:57:21,600 --> 01:57:24,200
importing others. 
I guess there's a lot of cheese 

2340
01:57:24,900 --> 01:57:26,200
made in pain cause that makes 
sense. 

2341
01:57:26,200 --> 01:57:29,500
It's something that wouldn't 
catch a lot of notice, as a 

2342
01:57:29,600 --> 01:57:33,400
element and a big fantasy story 
that fantasy Epic Production of 

2343
01:57:33,400 --> 01:57:36,300
food. 
But Cheese is also is what 

2344
01:57:36,300 --> 01:57:39,400
interesting because it's not a 
luxury good yet. 

2345
01:57:39,400 --> 01:57:42,000
It is electric you like fancy 
cheeses are luxury goods but 

2346
01:57:42,000 --> 01:57:45,100
there's also your day-to-day 
cheeses that start even the 

2347
01:57:45,100 --> 01:57:48,800
poorest people will have access 
to, you know, it's cheese. 

2348
01:57:48,900 --> 01:57:52,400
Certainly isn't exclusive to 
Italy much less Genoa but there 

2349
01:57:52,400 --> 01:57:55,700
are a lot of Italian cheeses 
mozzarella and Parmesan and so 

2350
01:57:55,700 --> 01:57:58,000
on and I'm going to that could 
be and easily another parallel. 

2351
01:57:58,100 --> 01:58:01,800
Yeah. 
Illyrio, his welfare member got 

2352
01:58:01,800 --> 01:58:06,100
him to the level where I mean, 
well, speaks and toss. 

2353
01:58:06,400 --> 01:58:08,800
The wealthiest have the most 
powerful, the her have the most 

2354
01:58:08,800 --> 01:58:10,800
power there. 
He was able to marry the 

2355
01:58:10,800 --> 01:58:14,800
daughter of a cousin of the 
principal toss but when he took 

2356
01:58:15,200 --> 01:58:19,800
Sarah as a lover, Who, of course
we've had a lot to say about 

2357
01:58:19,800 --> 01:58:25,300
her, probable blackfyre, the 
print, the Palaces of the prince

2358
01:58:25,300 --> 01:58:27,400
was closed him. 
They saw that it's an insult. 

2359
01:58:27,400 --> 01:58:29,800
So there's definitely still a 
lot of elitism in pentos, even 

2360
01:58:29,800 --> 01:58:33,700
though it's not rooted in 
Valyrian Heritage plague killed 

2361
01:58:33,700 --> 01:58:35,000
Sara. 
Remember we mentioned the great 

2362
01:58:35,000 --> 01:58:39,100
spring sickness, most likely 
affected 10 toss back in 2009. 

2363
01:58:39,400 --> 01:58:41,400
Of course, Sarah didn't die in 
2009. 

2364
01:58:41,400 --> 01:58:47,700
She died probably more like into
60s or to 70s, and just a 

2365
01:58:47,708 --> 01:58:51,100
reminder that as a trade Port 
it's going to be very 

2366
01:58:51,100 --> 01:58:55,100
susceptible to plagues because 
yeah just the nature of the way 

2367
01:58:55,100 --> 01:58:58,300
diseases spread and you know 
you're bringing on a ship and 

2368
01:58:58,300 --> 01:59:03,100
lots of people yeah like that 
can get go quickly at one point 

2369
01:59:03,100 --> 01:59:06,800
half the population of Genoa was
killed to the black bikes. 

2370
01:59:07,300 --> 01:59:10,000
Yeah it's just hard to 
comprehend the numbers like 

2371
01:59:10,000 --> 01:59:14,000
that. 
So been sauce is also allows for

2372
01:59:14,000 --> 01:59:17,200
the collecting of Exile. 
The lirio is in a collector of 

2373
01:59:17,400 --> 01:59:21,400
Secure and unsavory things. 
Tyrion says, one of those that 

2374
01:59:21,400 --> 01:59:24,200
he doesn't physically mention is
exile, collects exons. 

2375
01:59:24,600 --> 01:59:27,500
He collected John connon, he 
collected, the golden company 

2376
01:59:27,500 --> 01:59:30,800
sort of he collected this daddy 
and viserys and and by being so 

2377
01:59:30,800 --> 01:59:34,500
close to King's Landing enables 
a lot of he's the first stop for

2378
01:59:34,500 --> 01:59:36,900
a lot of eggs. 
I wasn't gonna snatch them right

2379
01:59:36,900 --> 01:59:39,700
up or arranged for them to be 
brought to him like Tyrion, 

2380
01:59:39,900 --> 01:59:42,800
right? 
He actually planned on bringing 

2381
01:59:42,800 --> 01:59:45,600
aegon and Danny. 
Hey gone, young Griff and Danny 

2382
01:59:45,600 --> 01:59:48,600
together for a marriage at Us, 
which would have been a really 

2383
01:59:49,400 --> 01:59:51,800
interesting like do-over of her 
married to Drogo. 

2384
01:59:51,800 --> 01:59:53,700
It's kind of what in Lyra is. 
Mine was kind of what they're 

2385
01:59:53,708 --> 01:59:57,000
doing there, but that isn't 
going to happen. 

2386
01:59:57,500 --> 02:00:01,200
But of course, we still expect 
things to happen in pain toss. 

2387
02:00:01,200 --> 02:00:06,500
It just won't be a marriage of 
aegon and Danny especially cuz, 

2388
02:00:06,700 --> 02:00:11,500
Hey, Gonzo already in Westeros 
or, as we said before, tyrion's 

2389
02:00:11,600 --> 02:00:14,700
pentoshi name was YOLO. 
We mentioned grow Leo. 

2390
02:00:14,700 --> 02:00:20,500
Very brief intro, YOLO. 
Yeah, yellow grow. 

2391
02:00:20,500 --> 02:00:24,000
Leo is pentoshi the for Admiral 
that. 

2392
02:00:24,100 --> 02:00:29,200
Sailed those ships over to meet 
Danny and qarth and pick her up 

2393
02:00:29,200 --> 02:00:35,100
with arstan AKA barristan. 
Grow Leah was executed by the 

2394
02:00:35,100 --> 02:00:37,800
meereenese over or the youngest 
meereenese. 

2395
02:00:37,800 --> 02:00:42,900
A youngish over the death of 
jezzin soyou cat York as rid of 

2396
02:00:42,907 --> 02:00:45,300
that. 
Guy's name is the dude who was 

2397
02:00:45,300 --> 02:00:50,700
trampled at. the gladiatorial 
games, the reopening of the pits

2398
02:00:50,700 --> 02:00:56,200
when drogon showed up, Poor guy,
his Arc is nothing, but sadness 

2399
02:00:57,400 --> 02:01:01,600
first Danny makes him go to 
Marine and asked. 

2400
02:01:01,600 --> 02:01:04,200
For fact, she first asked 
supported by the unsullied, then

2401
02:01:04,200 --> 02:01:07,300
takes the Partnerships to build 
battering rams and he's very 

2402
02:01:07,300 --> 02:01:10,100
bitter about that. 
And then then she's perplexed by

2403
02:01:10,100 --> 02:01:13,900
them, wanting him as a hostage 
because he's kind of a nobody 

2404
02:01:13,900 --> 02:01:15,900
like what's his, what's his 
value? 

2405
02:01:15,900 --> 02:01:18,300
You know, and then he's he has a
wife and kids back home. 

2406
02:01:18,300 --> 02:01:20,800
So he's valuable to them but 
like his no political fire and 

2407
02:01:20,800 --> 02:01:23,100
then they execute him which is 
part of why they do that. 

2408
02:01:23,300 --> 02:01:25,600
They're like, well, they're not 
going to start anything over 

2409
02:01:25,600 --> 02:01:28,700
this guy's death, but it shows 
we can, we can, you know, kind 

2410
02:01:28,700 --> 02:01:31,500
of push the envelope a little 
bit and exercise our Authority. 

2411
02:01:31,500 --> 02:01:35,300
And kind of move move towards 
executing the dragons, which is 

2412
02:01:35,300 --> 02:01:40,300
what they really wanted. 
It was the year 262 when the 

2413
02:01:40,300 --> 02:01:45,700
tattered Prince age, 23 had his 
choosing to be the prince of 

2414
02:01:45,708 --> 02:01:48,000
pentos. 
The one who had just been 

2415
02:01:48,000 --> 02:01:49,900
two-headed. 
He's like, I don't want that 

2416
02:01:49,900 --> 02:01:54,500
fate and he doesn't want to be 
beholding to the magistrate, the

2417
02:01:54,500 --> 02:01:56,600
magisters, the nobility, the 40 
families. 

2418
02:01:56,600 --> 02:01:59,900
And this I'm not gonna be your 
sacrificial lamb y'all. 

2419
02:02:00,200 --> 02:02:03,200
He was not the first to notice. 
This obvious thing is obvious 

2420
02:02:03,200 --> 02:02:07,000
potential and not the first to 
leave rather than accept. 

2421
02:02:07,600 --> 02:02:11,700
But he is the most recent both A
Song of Ice and Fire. 

2422
02:02:11,800 --> 02:02:14,900
I think, dick straw or one of 
the members of the windblown 

2423
02:02:14,900 --> 02:02:18,200
tells the story, The World Of 
Ice And Fire also says, the same

2424
02:02:18,200 --> 02:02:20,200
line. 
It says he fled never to return.

2425
02:02:20,600 --> 02:02:23,800
No about never turn, you know, 
he hasn't returned yet, but he 

2426
02:02:23,800 --> 02:02:26,400
and I wouldn't say never, I 
think he's coming back. 

2427
02:02:27,400 --> 02:02:29,600
Nina says, the tattered. 
Prince is very much, not a nice 

2428
02:02:29,600 --> 02:02:31,500
person. 
I think what he wants is to 

2429
02:02:31,500 --> 02:02:34,300
move, pentose to the opposite 
extreme from what it is. 

2430
02:02:34,300 --> 02:02:36,400
Now, instead of a system where 
the collective Council of 

2431
02:02:36,400 --> 02:02:38,900
Magister is can murder the 
executive at their whim. 

2432
02:02:39,200 --> 02:02:41,400
The tattered Prince wants a 
system where he can murder the 

2433
02:02:41,400 --> 02:02:45,100
magisters at his whim. 
This would not be pentose on. 

2434
02:02:45,100 --> 02:02:47,900
Pentoses terms. 
This would be pentose on Tavern,

2435
02:02:47,900 --> 02:02:51,000
princes terms, his personal 
domain, where he can rule as an 

2436
02:02:51,000 --> 02:02:54,800
absolute Authority or executive.
I totally agree with that. 

2437
02:02:55,300 --> 02:02:58,700
I think Nina nailed it. 
And we might get that for a 

2438
02:02:58,708 --> 02:03:01,200
short term or may find. 
Yeah. 

2439
02:03:01,200 --> 02:03:04,900
I mean, Danny doesn't want that.
But barristan is already agreed 

2440
02:03:04,900 --> 02:03:10,400
to it and then she going to be 
stuck with that when she returns

2441
02:03:10,500 --> 02:03:13,200
will barisan, even still be 
alive when he returned when she 

2442
02:03:13,200 --> 02:03:15,200
returns. 
So there's a lot of ways for 

2443
02:03:15,200 --> 02:03:17,500
this to go that are very 
unpredictable and I like that a 

2444
02:03:17,500 --> 02:03:18,600
lot. 
I mean, some things we can 

2445
02:03:18,600 --> 02:03:20,600
predict about this series, but 
some things like, yeah, it's 

2446
02:03:20,600 --> 02:03:24,200
really hard to say. 
Also how, how much room is there

2447
02:03:24,200 --> 02:03:26,400
for negotiation on the part of 
the Tedder prints? 

2448
02:03:26,400 --> 02:03:30,600
Both both, Both Inward and and 
practice like, you know, if he 

2449
02:03:30,600 --> 02:03:32,700
makes this move and barristan 
okay too. 

2450
02:03:32,700 --> 02:03:34,200
But he's not there and then it 
comes back. 

2451
02:03:34,200 --> 02:03:37,500
She might be like, okay, fine. 
As long as you do XYZ like, as 

2452
02:03:37,500 --> 02:03:39,600
long as there's no slave poses 
additional conditions or 

2453
02:03:39,600 --> 02:03:40,600
whatever. 
Right. 

2454
02:03:40,700 --> 02:03:41,900
He's okay. 
Sure fine. 

2455
02:03:41,900 --> 02:03:44,500
Yeah, get to be the king of the 
city and I just don't and then 

2456
02:03:44,500 --> 02:03:46,000
he can also just not do the 
things. 

2457
02:03:46,000 --> 02:03:48,400
He said he was going to do after
the fact, when she's goes off to

2458
02:03:48,407 --> 02:03:50,800
another continent or she's 
embroiled against the others and

2459
02:03:50,800 --> 02:03:54,100
winter and the other kings and 
queens of Westeros. 

2460
02:03:54,100 --> 02:03:57,600
The principal the terpenes I'd 
be like, I don't Options. 

2461
02:03:57,600 --> 02:03:59,700
Coming out of this. 
I can easily. 

2462
02:03:59,700 --> 02:04:02,400
I can do what I want. 
I do what I want and pay the 

2463
02:04:02,400 --> 02:04:04,800
consequences later. 
Say, oh, I'm sorry, I let me pay

2464
02:04:04,800 --> 02:04:06,700
you off. 
Hey, her up her off, like the 

2465
02:04:06,700 --> 02:04:08,100
Dothraki. 
It paid off. 

2466
02:04:09,400 --> 02:04:11,100
I don't know if that'd be enough
for her, but she probably is. 

2467
02:04:11,100 --> 02:04:13,900
He also probably won't survive 
everything in order to come back

2468
02:04:13,900 --> 02:04:15,600
and punish him. 
But it could be an interesting 

2469
02:04:15,600 --> 02:04:19,000
footnote in, you know, the dream
of spring as we hear about 

2470
02:04:19,000 --> 02:04:21,100
whatever. 
What's happening, the various 

2471
02:04:21,100 --> 02:04:25,200
states of Affairs of various 
parts of the world sent us will 

2472
02:04:25,200 --> 02:04:29,600
likely be included in that. 
Do y'all remember the ship the 

2473
02:04:29,600 --> 02:04:32,900
slow? 
I'd made the very sad tale of a 

2474
02:04:32,900 --> 02:04:34,900
ship that went all the way to 
qarth. 

2475
02:04:36,000 --> 02:04:41,400
And was sunk by the false lights
of among the sisters. 

2476
02:04:41,900 --> 02:04:46,100
The Lord Goddard Corral jokes 
about how he got pepper off a 

2477
02:04:46,100 --> 02:04:48,600
slow. 
I had made and laughing about it

2478
02:04:48,600 --> 02:04:53,300
and Davos is like enjoying the 
pepper and like you who asshole 

2479
02:04:53,700 --> 02:04:56,900
you sank the ship you letting 
things how horrible it is. 

2480
02:04:56,900 --> 02:04:59,700
To go all the way. 
He's like the slide made when 

2481
02:04:59,700 --> 02:05:03,900
all the way to the Jade sea, and
back, and was almost home before

2482
02:05:03,900 --> 02:05:05,600
Lord, to its death and small 
bodies fall. 

2483
02:05:05,800 --> 02:05:07,200
Flights. 
But the slow. 

2484
02:05:07,200 --> 02:05:11,500
I'm a maid is the source of the 
rumors about Danielle. 

2485
02:05:12,000 --> 02:05:16,500
It brought back the tales of 
Dani and her dragons to pentos. 

2486
02:05:17,400 --> 02:05:22,200
And so I'd made executive 
officer spoke with another dude 

2487
02:05:22,200 --> 02:05:25,300
that Davos then spoke with or 
heard overheard in this tavern. 

2488
02:05:26,000 --> 02:05:30,400
So yes, I prefer pepper to 
groomers. 

2489
02:05:31,300 --> 02:05:33,900
Yeah. 
Same one of the galleys that 

2490
02:05:33,900 --> 02:05:35,300
that was seized for the 
hardhome. 

2491
02:05:35,700 --> 02:05:39,200
Pay number John, had a bunch of 
gal he's just taken like nope 

2492
02:05:39,200 --> 02:05:41,700
any ships currently at the East 
watches Harbor or we're going to

2493
02:05:41,708 --> 02:05:43,700
use them for the rescue mission.
One of them was the pentoshi 

2494
02:05:43,700 --> 02:05:46,500
galley that ship may have been 
sunk. 

2495
02:05:46,600 --> 02:05:48,400
That's one of the ones that may 
have been sunk so we don't know 

2496
02:05:48,400 --> 02:05:50,400
if it's going to get out but if 
it does get out, it'll go back 

2497
02:05:50,400 --> 02:05:53,100
pain sauce and spread tales 
about what's happening Beyond 

2498
02:05:53,100 --> 02:05:57,400
the Wall, which is maybe the 
vector for The Wider world to 

2499
02:05:57,400 --> 02:06:01,600
learn about the invasion of man,
sand or the actual, others and 

2500
02:06:01,600 --> 02:06:05,300
Giants, and things like that. 
Like People outside of Westeros 

2501
02:06:05,300 --> 02:06:09,200
are going to hear about Giants 
and zombie or whites make me 

2502
02:06:09,200 --> 02:06:11,800
call them zombies. 
Sean, it's your fault, Whites 

2503
02:06:12,200 --> 02:06:13,600
Whites and others and some like 
that. 

2504
02:06:13,600 --> 02:06:16,600
Like, that's really interesting 
possibility just using thinking 

2505
02:06:16,600 --> 02:06:18,400
of Penthouse is just a vector 
for news. 

2506
02:06:18,600 --> 02:06:21,300
Again, it being the Center of 
Trade means, it's also the 

2507
02:06:21,300 --> 02:06:25,000
center for news and rumors to 
spread or a cent or not decent. 

2508
02:06:25,800 --> 02:06:28,500
So that's really interesting. 
Like this could spread this away

2509
02:06:28,500 --> 02:06:30,300
for the wider world to learn 
about that. 

2510
02:06:30,300 --> 02:06:33,400
Vector of information very much 
likely pass through pentos. 

2511
02:06:35,400 --> 02:06:38,300
As I said before Penny and her 
family are probably aren't from 

2512
02:06:38,300 --> 02:06:39,600
pentos. 
They were hired for the purple 

2513
02:06:39,600 --> 02:06:42,900
wedding there and it's you would
go there to higher performers, 

2514
02:06:42,900 --> 02:06:44,900
possibly, because that's a place
known for performing. 

2515
02:06:44,900 --> 02:06:47,900
Yeah. 
And the qartheen warlocks, they 

2516
02:06:47,900 --> 02:06:51,000
didn't know where Danny went or 
where she was going to go after 

2517
02:06:51,000 --> 02:06:54,400
leaving qarth, but they were 
going to look in cart and 

2518
02:06:54,407 --> 02:06:56,200
Penthouse first. 
That's where they were going to 

2519
02:06:56,208 --> 02:06:57,900
head first. 
Instead, they found your honor, 

2520
02:06:57,900 --> 02:07:01,800
you're on found them semantics. 
Hey, whatever. 

2521
02:07:01,800 --> 02:07:04,400
Whatever you want to put it. 
They wish that hadn't happened 

2522
02:07:04,400 --> 02:07:06,300
that way. 
They probably wish they had 

2523
02:07:06,300 --> 02:07:09,900
stayed home. 
Yeah, well, Karma. 

2524
02:07:10,000 --> 02:07:14,400
Brutal brutal Karma may be a 
little too much, but, you know, 

2525
02:07:15,000 --> 02:07:16,600
they went looking for trouble. 
They found it. 

2526
02:07:18,600 --> 02:07:20,500
Maybe it'll come back on your 
and yeah. 

2527
02:07:20,500 --> 02:07:22,000
Yeah, it's true. 
I mean, I don't expect your on 

2528
02:07:22,000 --> 02:07:27,000
to have a happy ending as I've 
said on the show before when 

2529
02:07:27,000 --> 02:07:29,200
several of us attended a signing
by George r.r. 

2530
02:07:29,200 --> 02:07:31,600
Martin, when I've handed him a 
copy of the map, you see behind 

2531
02:07:31,600 --> 02:07:35,200
you, you know, when world map in
particular, he remarked on how 

2532
02:07:35,200 --> 02:07:36,900
nice the map was. 
Because, of course, it's like 

2533
02:07:36,900 --> 02:07:38,200
the far field. 
Of course, it's nice. 

2534
02:07:38,200 --> 02:07:40,800
Yeah. 
He said and soon, it will all be

2535
02:07:40,800 --> 02:07:43,200
on fire and I was like, what 
spoiler? 

2536
02:07:43,200 --> 02:07:46,400
I yelled and laughed. 
Surely he didn't mean all the 

2537
02:07:46,400 --> 02:07:48,200
cities of essos would be 
inflamed. 

2538
02:07:48,400 --> 02:07:51,200
Although I guess it's possible 
but I do think it's more likely 

2539
02:07:51,200 --> 02:07:55,700
to mean, a lot of them will go 
that way, Danny passing that 

2540
02:07:55,700 --> 02:07:59,200
way, pretty high, on that list 
for pentos very possible, try to

2541
02:07:59,208 --> 02:08:01,600
pair with volantis. 
Here's a conversation. 

2542
02:08:01,600 --> 02:08:04,200
I want to draw your attention to
quote. 

2543
02:08:05,400 --> 02:08:08,600
Mary mazdoor betrayed me. 
I burned her for it. 

2544
02:08:09,800 --> 02:08:13,000
Miriam as juror was in your 
power and pintos, you shall be 

2545
02:08:13,000 --> 02:08:15,400
in the Larios power, it is not 
the same. 

2546
02:08:15,700 --> 02:08:19,400
I know the Magister as well as 
you well, Jorah, you were right 

2547
02:08:19,500 --> 02:08:24,000
when you said that at the time, 
but now that's still right. 

2548
02:08:24,000 --> 02:08:26,300
But less like if you have your 
dragons and your unsullied and 

2549
02:08:26,300 --> 02:08:30,100
your Dothraki, you could still 
be in liras power, but you he's 

2550
02:08:30,100 --> 02:08:33,600
in your power to he can't just 
assassinated because if you died

2551
02:08:33,600 --> 02:08:38,800
in his home, I mean, he would 
get blamed for that, the track, 

2552
02:08:38,800 --> 02:08:42,100
he would just come for him, you 
know, that he can't do that 

2553
02:08:42,600 --> 02:08:46,300
without massive consequences, so
I don't think he's gonna do 

2554
02:08:46,300 --> 02:08:47,900
that. 
He would have to be very careful

2555
02:08:47,900 --> 02:08:51,400
about how he turns on his 
so-called puppet. 

2556
02:08:52,800 --> 02:08:54,800
Especially a pro Gods like right
there too. 

2557
02:08:56,400 --> 02:08:59,200
And and that's the statement. 
So yeah, Dora said that the 

2558
02:08:59,200 --> 02:09:02,900
beginning of A Storm of Swords, 
not things are so different, and

2559
02:09:02,900 --> 02:09:05,300
but she might even have the 
windblown on her side like with 

2560
02:09:05,300 --> 02:09:06,400
the tattered Prince and all 
that. 

2561
02:09:07,000 --> 02:09:10,600
Yeah, it's just jours statement 
is interesting and useful, but 

2562
02:09:10,600 --> 02:09:14,200
think the situation has changed 
a lot since then it is worth 

2563
02:09:14,200 --> 02:09:19,300
noting though that it's very 
Matador was less of a 

2564
02:09:19,300 --> 02:09:21,600
significant person in the 
political structure. 

2565
02:09:21,600 --> 02:09:22,400
That's right. 
Yeah. 

2566
02:09:22,400 --> 02:09:26,200
There wasn't some retribution 
for her killing Mary manager for

2567
02:09:26,200 --> 02:09:27,900
a large. 
Oh, there might be whether it's 

2568
02:09:27,900 --> 02:09:31,000
as simple as like the influence 
he could have wielded to help 

2569
02:09:31,000 --> 02:09:32,900
her. 
Now he's not there to do that 

2570
02:09:32,900 --> 02:09:34,900
for people who were allied with 
him. 

2571
02:09:34,900 --> 02:09:37,900
Who now want to work in. 
Stanny, you know if they can't 

2572
02:09:37,900 --> 02:09:40,400
necessarily stand up and to fear
Her Dragons, they still might 

2573
02:09:40,400 --> 02:09:43,900
behind the scenes sink, our 
ships, or do, you know, spread 

2574
02:09:43,900 --> 02:09:46,700
false rumors or whatever else 
they work against her when they 

2575
02:09:46,700 --> 02:09:48,900
could be working for? 
He has more to lose killing a 

2576
02:09:48,900 --> 02:09:51,600
larger than she did going Mary 
Master Spectra? 

2577
02:09:51,600 --> 02:09:54,600
Yeah, that's that. 
That hurt drawer is correct. 

2578
02:09:55,800 --> 02:09:58,400
Yeah, if the castle of harrenhal
can burn, perhaps the brick 

2579
02:09:58,400 --> 02:10:01,700
walls of pentos can as well. 
That's one potential fate for it

2580
02:10:01,700 --> 02:10:03,900
or if she doesn't want to send 
her dragons against it again 

2581
02:10:04,000 --> 02:10:08,300
unsullied, the frackie 
sellswords plenty of options and

2582
02:10:08,300 --> 02:10:10,800
they don't have an army at all. 
So they would probably just give

2583
02:10:10,800 --> 02:10:12,000
up. 
I don't know that it would 

2584
02:10:12,000 --> 02:10:14,700
that's one reason. 
I'm not sure it would come to 

2585
02:10:14,800 --> 02:10:19,700
outright Devastation for pentos.
Even their like I said, even 

2586
02:10:19,700 --> 02:10:22,800
their Naval defenses would go 
from stout to pretty useless 

2587
02:10:22,800 --> 02:10:24,800
even with those, you know, the 
only have 20 ships again 

2588
02:10:24,800 --> 02:10:27,300
protecting the inlet, there's 
maybe they could do that. 

2589
02:10:27,300 --> 02:10:29,300
But not with a dragon, or it's 
free and play. 

2590
02:10:29,700 --> 02:10:32,600
So a number of the details about
pain toss, do painted as rich 

2591
02:10:32,600 --> 02:10:37,000
but week, but the frackie make 
the pentoshi nervous that's in 

2592
02:10:37,000 --> 02:10:39,600
the Danny's very first chapter. 
That might be a little bit of a 

2593
02:10:39,600 --> 02:10:44,000
little low-key foreshadowing, 
however, they're not a slave to 

2594
02:10:44,000 --> 02:10:46,700
the at the moment so they can't 
you can't expect them to just 

2595
02:10:46,700 --> 02:10:48,700
rise. 
As up, like, volantis would the 

2596
02:10:48,700 --> 02:10:51,900
way the Widow of the Waterfront 
says they will, but maybe they 

2597
02:10:51,900 --> 02:10:55,900
will maybe there they understand
their situation is to. 

2598
02:10:55,900 --> 02:10:57,500
Yeah, we're basically slaves. 
I don't know. 

2599
02:10:57,500 --> 02:11:01,100
Maybe the it's kind of 
interesting that semantics the 

2600
02:11:01,100 --> 02:11:04,100
dichotomy the small differences 
May amount to be large 

2601
02:11:04,100 --> 02:11:06,600
differences ending on how things
play out. 

2602
02:11:08,900 --> 02:11:12,900
Illyrio even has a unsullied 
guards like those are slaves, 

2603
02:11:13,500 --> 02:11:15,200
right? 
Like it's just it's so blatant, 

2604
02:11:15,200 --> 02:11:17,300
right? 
They were purchased and in 

2605
02:11:17,300 --> 02:11:18,200
freed. 
Yeah. 

2606
02:11:18,300 --> 02:11:22,000
Like how daddy fight Danny freed
hers and they just opted to stay

2607
02:11:22,000 --> 02:11:23,800
with her and fight with her 
because they don't know any 

2608
02:11:23,800 --> 02:11:25,100
other life. 
Like all we're good at is 

2609
02:11:25,100 --> 02:11:27,000
fighting like this. 
Seems like a good place to be 

2610
02:11:28,000 --> 02:11:30,200
but here's another quote from 
Tyrion. 

2611
02:11:31,600 --> 02:11:35,200
Slavery, may be forbidden by the
laws of pentos, yet, you have a 

2612
02:11:35,200 --> 02:11:38,900
finger in that trade as well, 
and maybe a whole hand and yet, 

2613
02:11:38,900 --> 02:11:41,600
you conspire for the dragon 
Queen and not against her. 

2614
02:11:41,900 --> 02:11:44,700
Why, what do you hope to gain 
from Queen Daenerys? 

2615
02:11:44,700 --> 02:11:47,400
He says, he just wants to be 
master of coin, but I just do 

2616
02:11:47,400 --> 02:11:52,200
not believe that for a second, 
Tyrion doesn't either that dude 

2617
02:11:52,200 --> 02:11:54,500
is so rich. 
Like I just don't like why? 

2618
02:11:54,700 --> 02:11:58,900
What would that do for him more?
Well, he doesn't even want to he

2619
02:11:58,900 --> 02:12:00,900
points out, he doesn't want 
casterly Rock, like, Viserys 

2620
02:12:00,900 --> 02:12:03,500
promise in casterly rock and 
he's like, I like my Mansion 

2621
02:12:03,500 --> 02:12:05,400
better. 
I don't want to live in casterly

2622
02:12:05,400 --> 02:12:07,400
rock, you know, he doesn't even 
sound like he wants to go to 

2623
02:12:07,400 --> 02:12:10,100
Westeros know it idiot. 
What do you think? 

2624
02:12:10,100 --> 02:12:12,600
He actually doesn't want? 
I don't know. 

2625
02:12:12,600 --> 02:12:14,700
I mean it could be like a little
finger thing where he just wants

2626
02:12:14,700 --> 02:12:18,700
as much power as you can have. 
Like the guys Persona exudes 

2627
02:12:18,800 --> 02:12:22,200
greed and excess, right? 
Like he's massively overweight 

2628
02:12:22,200 --> 02:12:24,900
and all that kind of agree but I
still think they like being 

2629
02:12:24,900 --> 02:12:28,900
Master corn is about the most 
power he could have perhaps 

2630
02:12:28,900 --> 02:12:30,500
perhaps rolling behind the 
throne as well. 

2631
02:12:30,700 --> 02:12:32,300
I mean he might want that but I 
don't know if that's his 

2632
02:12:32,300 --> 02:12:35,800
ultimate goal, you know. 
I think he would be fine to be 

2633
02:12:35,800 --> 02:12:37,900
that, but I don't know if that's
like, that's what he's doing all

2634
02:12:37,900 --> 02:12:40,800
this for just to be master of 
coin for Western Alliance and 

2635
02:12:40,800 --> 02:12:45,300
just like very convoluted. 
So maybe there is some truth in 

2636
02:12:45,300 --> 02:12:48,200
him wanting to see the son of 
Sarah on the throne. 

2637
02:12:48,300 --> 02:12:49,400
Yeah. 
I think it might be, I think it 

2638
02:12:49,407 --> 02:12:52,100
makes more sense for it to be 
personal at the level of high 

2639
02:12:52,100 --> 02:12:54,500
power. 
He has put on like my counter 

2640
02:12:54,500 --> 02:12:55,900
points. 
That is that I just can't ever 

2641
02:12:55,900 --> 02:12:58,900
relate to these. 
Like, power-hungry people were 

2642
02:12:58,900 --> 02:13:00,500
like, I can't help, but think 
like, oh. 

2643
02:13:00,600 --> 02:13:02,400
Okay, like you're very 
successful. 

2644
02:13:02,400 --> 02:13:06,300
Why are you still grasping for 
more yet across the point that 

2645
02:13:06,300 --> 02:13:09,100
people do they do? 
They do keep grasping anymore, 

2646
02:13:09,100 --> 02:13:11,400
even though you're like, well, 
you should be satisfied. 

2647
02:13:11,700 --> 02:13:14,500
You have so much power. 
Yeah, I don't know. 

2648
02:13:14,500 --> 02:13:16,100
Sometimes there's an ambitious 
person. 

2649
02:13:16,100 --> 02:13:20,800
Like a, I don't know a lot. 
Definitely depends on what 

2650
02:13:20,800 --> 02:13:22,500
transpires between Danny and 
illyrio. 

2651
02:13:22,500 --> 02:13:24,700
The lyric and worm, his way out 
of the things, Dan, he's going 

2652
02:13:24,700 --> 02:13:27,400
to figure out. 
Okay, so let's be some of this 

2653
02:13:27,400 --> 02:13:29,200
together. 
Nina's got some good points on 

2654
02:13:29,200 --> 02:13:32,600
here, so as well. 
Danny's a wearily Rios basically

2655
02:13:32,600 --> 02:13:37,100
using slaves but she also sees 
him as a friend and as a 

2656
02:13:37,108 --> 02:13:38,800
benefactor. 
So maybe she's willing to let 

2657
02:13:38,800 --> 02:13:40,000
that slide. 
Maybe she's going to come and be

2658
02:13:40,008 --> 02:13:41,700
like, okay, you have to let your
slaves go though. 

2659
02:13:41,700 --> 02:13:45,100
Like I'm I can't have my 
supporters owning slaves. 

2660
02:13:45,400 --> 02:13:47,900
I'm the mother of, I'm the 
Breaker of Chains like that just

2661
02:13:47,900 --> 02:13:50,000
doesn't align the plus, I it's 
wrong. 

2662
02:13:51,700 --> 02:13:54,600
It might be just willing to just
do whatever she says because he 

2663
02:13:54,600 --> 02:13:57,900
knows what's at stake and 
shoulders burn him, otherwise 

2664
02:13:57,900 --> 02:14:00,800
she's she's given those vibes 
off. 

2665
02:14:00,800 --> 02:14:03,300
Like yeah I will kill, you are a
slaver. 

2666
02:14:03,700 --> 02:14:08,100
So It's tricky to see which way 
she'll go on that but as we've 

2667
02:14:08,100 --> 02:14:10,200
also expressed let me rename 
this point here. 

2668
02:14:10,700 --> 02:14:12,500
How long will that trust 
maintain? 

2669
02:14:12,500 --> 02:14:14,400
It might be kind of flimsy. 
Danny May. 

2670
02:14:14,400 --> 02:14:20,000
Once more things come to life 
she met Change her opinion on 

2671
02:14:20,000 --> 02:14:22,300
illyrio. 
Very, very dramatically because 

2672
02:14:22,300 --> 02:14:23,700
Tyrion know something pretty 
critical about. 

2673
02:14:23,700 --> 02:14:26,100
Lira that Danny doesn't namely 
that a leader is planned for the

2674
02:14:26,100 --> 02:14:28,000
better. 
Part of two decades was to 

2675
02:14:28,000 --> 02:14:32,100
install aegon, not Danny or her 
brother that she was originally 

2676
02:14:32,500 --> 02:14:35,100
part of the setup. 
She was the distraction. 

2677
02:14:35,100 --> 02:14:37,400
She was Badr cannon. 
Fodder basically. 

2678
02:14:38,200 --> 02:14:40,600
Aleera didn't intend for Danny 
to survive. 

2679
02:14:41,400 --> 02:14:44,800
That only changed when she 
hatched dragons then they 

2680
02:14:44,800 --> 02:14:46,500
pivoted their plan like a 
weight. 

2681
02:14:46,500 --> 02:14:48,400
This is Rita called totally 
unexpected. 

2682
02:14:48,500 --> 02:14:51,400
Result we should absolutely 
include the dragons in our plan 

2683
02:14:51,400 --> 02:14:54,100
out of here. 
Missed again like whoa, couldn't

2684
02:14:54,100 --> 02:14:58,000
have possibly counted for that 
possibility, so it sounds like a

2685
02:14:58,000 --> 02:15:01,400
leery of cares more about this 
egg on person who might be his 

2686
02:15:01,400 --> 02:15:03,700
son Terry. 
In my point that out, as well if

2687
02:15:03,700 --> 02:15:07,300
he figures that out fully. 
So yeah, Danny might come to 

2688
02:15:07,300 --> 02:15:09,000
realize that so much of this is 
different. 

2689
02:15:09,000 --> 02:15:11,400
She still might want to use 
illyrio be like, well, we still 

2690
02:15:11,400 --> 02:15:14,700
need him, like him said to Sean.
Like, she's even finding these 

2691
02:15:14,700 --> 02:15:16,500
things out. 
Might mean. 

2692
02:15:17,600 --> 02:15:20,600
Okay, I don't trust. 
Anymore, but we still need him. 

2693
02:15:20,600 --> 02:15:23,700
And my greater goals are more 
important than solving 10 tosses

2694
02:15:23,700 --> 02:15:26,000
issues, she might become kind of
jaded with that. 

2695
02:15:26,000 --> 02:15:28,800
After difficulty, the Marine, 
it's another pie or she might 

2696
02:15:28,800 --> 02:15:31,300
just be all more aggressive 
about it, you know. 

2697
02:15:31,300 --> 02:15:33,800
Like it's so hard to figure this
many possibilities, depending 

2698
02:15:33,800 --> 02:15:35,300
how it goes. 
You might trust him more. 

2699
02:15:35,600 --> 02:15:39,300
If she learns this stuff about 
him understand his motivations 

2700
02:15:39,300 --> 02:15:43,100
he levels with her about it. 
All it may be a greater level of

2701
02:15:43,100 --> 02:15:44,200
trust. 
He is convinced. 

2702
02:15:44,400 --> 02:15:47,700
Yeah, I mean, and Barton, don't 
forget bars is involved in and 

2703
02:15:47,700 --> 02:15:50,700
all this like, Like earlier to 
point out, we'll look by guy 

2704
02:15:51,100 --> 02:15:54,900
over there, if you lose me you 
lose him and you need you really

2705
02:15:54,900 --> 02:15:59,000
want and a network of spies it 
goes along with it and and and 

2706
02:15:59,000 --> 02:16:01,900
also it's not like there's no 
way to make money without 

2707
02:16:01,900 --> 02:16:04,200
slaves, right? 
Ilario might be happy to shed 

2708
02:16:04,200 --> 02:16:07,600
this slaves because he's 
especially the capital and 

2709
02:16:07,600 --> 02:16:10,600
position he has already, he can 
continue being successful and 

2710
02:16:10,600 --> 02:16:14,300
Wealthy so yeah Danny want to 
get rid of slaves, all spearhead

2711
02:16:14,300 --> 02:16:17,600
that for you didn't you might be
very genuine about it and 

2712
02:16:17,700 --> 02:16:20,800
genuinely Because he needs to do
it to get his for his greater 

2713
02:16:20,800 --> 02:16:21,900
goals to be accomplished. 
Yeah. 

2714
02:16:21,900 --> 02:16:25,200
And you write to him, it might 
be a lot of work but it might 

2715
02:16:25,200 --> 02:16:27,500
not but it might not cost him, 
he might still come out ahead or

2716
02:16:27,500 --> 02:16:30,300
break even or yeah, as long as 
the and you would still cost a 

2717
02:16:30,300 --> 02:16:33,500
lot. 
Like if you have like 25 million

2718
02:16:33,500 --> 02:16:35,900
dollars, instead of 30 million 
dollars that cost me 5 million. 

2719
02:16:35,900 --> 02:16:37,600
Yeah, but I still have 25 
million dollars. 

2720
02:16:38,799 --> 02:16:41,299
I'll be okay. 
It's just gonna get my bigger 

2721
02:16:41,299 --> 02:16:44,200
goals or my alliance with Danny 
or whatever else can can move 

2722
02:16:44,200 --> 02:16:45,299
forward. 
And there is case would probably

2723
02:16:45,299 --> 02:16:48,299
be more appropriate using 
billion than million, but yeah, 

2724
02:16:48,400 --> 02:16:50,200
Yeah, your point is still felt 
well taken. 

2725
02:16:51,400 --> 02:16:55,600
Also, on top of everything, 
Tyrion knows or has sussed out 

2726
02:16:55,600 --> 02:16:57,900
the truth. 
That hey guns, not the son of 

2727
02:16:57,900 --> 02:17:01,400
rhaegar illyrio is Allure going 
to try to sell that lie to Danny

2728
02:17:01,400 --> 02:17:05,100
too. 
Will he try to sell the lie if 

2729
02:17:05,100 --> 02:17:07,400
he figures, that Tyrion is 
figured it out the lot. 

2730
02:17:07,400 --> 02:17:09,600
Figured out that like is another
thing is we're going to be like 

2731
02:17:09,799 --> 02:17:11,799
I think Terrence I figured out 
that this isn't really rig our 

2732
02:17:11,799 --> 02:17:16,100
son so I better know. 
I won't tell about lie, but we 

2733
02:17:16,100 --> 02:17:18,000
need, maybe he'll try to 
convince Danny to tell that lie 

2734
02:17:18,000 --> 02:17:21,400
because it's important to tell 
Westeros that lie, right? 

2735
02:17:21,400 --> 02:17:24,100
It's another way. 
He might actually win more trust

2736
02:17:24,100 --> 02:17:27,299
from Danielle by telling the 
truth about that lie and she may

2737
02:17:27,299 --> 02:17:29,100
also understand the value of 
that life. 

2738
02:17:29,100 --> 02:17:31,900
But ultimately, I think she 
won't accept it because she's in

2739
02:17:31,900 --> 02:17:35,700
her vision the Slayer. 
The cloth, dragon, mummer's 

2740
02:17:35,700 --> 02:17:37,400
dragon. 
On poles is almost certainly 

2741
02:17:37,400 --> 02:17:39,900
aegon. 
And she, if she is the Slayer of

2742
02:17:39,900 --> 02:17:43,400
that lie, that foreshadows her 
ending this, this, this whole 

2743
02:17:43,400 --> 02:17:46,400
thing, the Sherrod, not going 
along with it, but maybe she has

2744
02:17:46,400 --> 02:17:47,600
to go along with it for a little
while. 

2745
02:17:48,600 --> 02:17:51,100
It was just immediately tried to
torch it. 

2746
02:17:52,299 --> 02:17:53,400
Maybe she doesn't. 
Maybe he does. 

2747
02:17:53,400 --> 02:17:55,200
She maybe she doesn't believe 
Tyrion at first. 

2748
02:17:55,299 --> 02:17:57,799
Oh no, they're just like well, 
what is this little dude? 

2749
02:17:57,799 --> 02:17:59,700
Trying to sell me a life, or 
maybe he's just trying to get 

2750
02:17:59,700 --> 02:18:01,100
casually Rock. 
Like, Terry is awfully 

2751
02:18:01,100 --> 02:18:02,500
convincing though, but so 
hilarious. 

2752
02:18:02,500 --> 02:18:04,200
In this could get to get 
interesting. 

2753
02:18:04,600 --> 02:18:07,299
It would be an interesting 
dilemma if there was a marriage 

2754
02:18:07,299 --> 02:18:10,299
arranged. 
And and it got all this support 

2755
02:18:10,299 --> 02:18:12,900
behind it, and then she 
discovered now that all the 

2756
02:18:12,900 --> 02:18:16,100
plans are built around this. 
Oh, wait, he's not really who he

2757
02:18:16,100 --> 02:18:17,799
said he was. 
Yeah, we thought he was. 

2758
02:18:18,700 --> 02:18:22,600
But all the alliances and plans 
and stability or all built 

2759
02:18:22,600 --> 02:18:24,200
around it. 
Does she now shed it? 

2760
02:18:24,200 --> 02:18:27,700
They can it survive even with 
the truth coming out. 

2761
02:18:27,700 --> 02:18:31,000
Maybe it's enough. 
Another reason Danny might feel 

2762
02:18:31,000 --> 02:18:34,299
a huge sense of betrayal is that
there's the prophecy. 

2763
02:18:34,299 --> 02:18:37,200
The prophecy of a treason in. 
She could think this is the 

2764
02:18:37,200 --> 02:18:42,600
treason for love illyrio is 
loved Sarah and is trying to put

2765
02:18:43,100 --> 02:18:47,400
the child of his love on the 
throne of Westeros. 

2766
02:18:47,400 --> 02:18:52,100
So, Whether that's true or not 
is almost irrelevant, it's 

2767
02:18:52,100 --> 02:18:54,799
whether Danny sees it. 
As true is convinced it as a 

2768
02:18:54,807 --> 02:18:57,799
Runway. 
Was it one of the betrayals for 

2769
02:18:57,799 --> 02:19:00,299
gold like if you must be master 
of coin, if that's what he's 

2770
02:19:00,299 --> 02:19:02,000
telling her she might interpret 
it that way to. 

2771
02:19:02,000 --> 02:19:03,799
She might be like one way the 
other. 

2772
02:19:04,000 --> 02:19:06,100
This is a betrayal looks bad. 
Yeah, it's like well this looks 

2773
02:19:06,100 --> 02:19:08,299
like one of the prophesied for 
Trails here. 

2774
02:19:08,299 --> 02:19:11,100
It could really look that way 
and then she could become far 

2775
02:19:11,100 --> 02:19:15,000
from trusting illyrio just a 
complete flipped into the sky is

2776
02:19:16,100 --> 02:19:19,600
Very untrustworthy. 
So that's a really interesting 

2777
02:19:19,799 --> 02:19:21,500
possible. 
Conundrum become up and I think 

2778
02:19:21,500 --> 02:19:25,100
was pretty likely to happen 
guessing how she navigates, it 

2779
02:19:25,100 --> 02:19:25,799
is. 
A lot trickier. 

2780
02:19:25,799 --> 02:19:29,700
There's so many possibilities. 
So, Nina suggest that Danny has 

2781
02:19:30,000 --> 02:19:32,799
more motivation to hand 
Penthouse over the title Prince,

2782
02:19:32,799 --> 02:19:36,500
then she has to remove and allow
egg on to take the Iron Throne. 

2783
02:19:36,500 --> 02:19:39,299
Like she has more motivation to 
give up and toss then to support

2784
02:19:39,299 --> 02:19:42,400
a god, which is an odd spot to 
be in. 

2785
02:19:43,400 --> 02:19:47,799
Earlier, we referenced this 
quote we're about to have here 

2786
02:19:47,799 --> 02:19:51,500
in about, Leary Azad, trust with
his own people quote. 

2787
02:19:52,900 --> 02:19:54,900
As for my household, they love 
me. 

2788
02:19:54,900 --> 02:19:59,000
Well, none would betray me, 
cherish that thought my fat 

2789
02:19:59,000 --> 02:20:01,800
friend one day. 
We will carve those words upon 

2790
02:20:01,800 --> 02:20:06,300
your Crypt. 
Yeah, well we might I wonder if 

2791
02:20:06,300 --> 02:20:11,400
Tyrion is really part of that, 
we put a and we'll see the death

2792
02:20:11,400 --> 02:20:15,100
of illyrio. 
And we've pointed out many times

2793
02:20:15,100 --> 02:20:18,400
that yes Pentecost is the 
closest to King's Landing, but 

2794
02:20:18,400 --> 02:20:23,200
it's even closer to Dragonstone.
So Oh, that is a jumping off 

2795
02:20:23,200 --> 02:20:28,000
point potentially that proximity
along with their small military 

2796
02:20:28,000 --> 02:20:30,200
might help. 
Save pentose from greater 

2797
02:20:30,200 --> 02:20:33,400
Devastation there, just as 
rotten as some of the others. 

2798
02:20:33,400 --> 02:20:36,000
But as I said, their weaknesses 
might be a bit of a bun. 

2799
02:20:36,900 --> 02:20:40,800
Danny might value it more as a 
base. 

2800
02:20:40,800 --> 02:20:43,900
Then as a place to make a moral 
stand, might be something that 

2801
02:20:43,900 --> 02:20:47,400
she doubles back to to deal with
later while moving on to bigger 

2802
02:20:47,400 --> 02:20:50,900
and more important things. 
And with dragons on so close, 

2803
02:20:50,900 --> 02:20:52,900
she might be kind of you eager 
to get like we're tracking 

2804
02:20:52,900 --> 02:20:55,100
Stones just right there. 
Like I don't want to get bogged 

2805
02:20:55,100 --> 02:20:58,100
down here in pentos like I did 
in Marine or whatever Westeros 

2806
02:20:58,100 --> 02:21:01,700
is things are happening there 
now and her advisors will 

2807
02:21:01,700 --> 02:21:04,900
probably agree with that. 
I mean, Tyrion and barristan, 

2808
02:21:04,900 --> 02:21:07,900
and maybe not quite as much 
mokoro because he's not West 

2809
02:21:07,900 --> 02:21:12,000
Rossi, but all the westerosi 
with her, want her to go back to

2810
02:21:12,000 --> 02:21:14,300
Westeros because they want to go
back there too. 

2811
02:21:15,300 --> 02:21:16,700
They want to live in the 
country. 

2812
02:21:16,700 --> 02:21:20,300
They're from and beer accepted 
there, and yeah, all that. 

2813
02:21:20,300 --> 02:21:25,000
So that's important. 
So many There's so many facets 

2814
02:21:25,000 --> 02:21:27,800
to this that they could easily 
go one way or the other, you 

2815
02:21:27,800 --> 02:21:29,800
know? 
Like just just the right 

2816
02:21:29,800 --> 02:21:34,400
presentation to Danny or just 
the wrong move by ilario or just

2817
02:21:34,400 --> 02:21:37,700
the right that the timing of, 
you know, the order things come 

2818
02:21:37,700 --> 02:21:40,400
up seems like it could have 
these huge swings as to whether 

2819
02:21:40,400 --> 02:21:42,900
or not pintos gets torched or 
pintos. 

2820
02:21:42,900 --> 02:21:46,500
Is Danny strongest Allied to 
whether or not they launched 

2821
02:21:46,500 --> 02:21:50,700
from pintos or to Pinto. 
So you know, it's I can see 

2822
02:21:51,100 --> 02:21:53,900
accounting for all these factors
with these things are all Sort 

2823
02:21:53,900 --> 02:21:56,900
of intertwined, we've kind of 
pending, plotlines, and George 

2824
02:21:56,900 --> 02:21:59,600
has going and starting to see 
why people want the next book to

2825
02:21:59,600 --> 02:22:07,000
come just now, just now started.
Yeah, what other wrinkle here is

2826
02:22:07,000 --> 02:22:11,600
pentoses long history of 
befriending, and supporting her 

2827
02:22:11,600 --> 02:22:14,700
family, that might be something 
that she looks positively on. 

2828
02:22:15,400 --> 02:22:19,900
Hague on had an alliance with 
them, Meg, or Damon Lena, Bela 

2829
02:22:19,900 --> 02:22:24,900
Reina jaehaerys rhaenyra one. 
Hide some of her kids there 

2830
02:22:24,900 --> 02:22:26,700
during the War. 
I mean, there's a lot of 

2831
02:22:26,700 --> 02:22:31,500
connection there and Danny might
look at that as a plus, but it's

2832
02:22:31,500 --> 02:22:34,500
also kind of far in the past. 
So it may not be relevant. 

2833
02:22:34,500 --> 02:22:37,700
You might be like, look, ya'll 
that rainy, Rose the most recent

2834
02:22:37,700 --> 02:22:41,500
of those and that's 170 years 
ago, as the show famously said, 

2835
02:22:41,500 --> 02:22:44,600
171 years before Danna start 
Daenerys Targaryen. 

2836
02:22:44,600 --> 02:22:47,500
Yeah, so that may not matter so 
much like and he's doing a lot 

2837
02:22:47,500 --> 02:22:49,200
of things different than prior 
targaryens. 

2838
02:22:49,200 --> 02:22:53,600
But same token. 
It's that family. 

2839
02:22:53,700 --> 02:22:56,400
Ali. 
She is her source of connection 

2840
02:22:56,400 --> 02:22:59,000
to the Iron Throne as well. 
So yeah, yeah, I don't know if 

2841
02:22:59,000 --> 02:23:00,000
she can just throw all that 
away. 

2842
02:23:00,600 --> 02:23:05,800
Yeah. 
Super interesting, 10 tosses, as

2843
02:23:05,800 --> 02:23:12,000
I hope we've displayed for you. 
A big part in dream of SAR, 

2844
02:23:12,000 --> 02:23:14,400
Winds of Winter, and probably a 
dream of spring as well, but 

2845
02:23:14,400 --> 02:23:16,900
probably more Winds of Winter, 
given its directly in Danny's 

2846
02:23:16,900 --> 02:23:20,900
past both narratively and 
logistically for her return to 

2847
02:23:20,900 --> 02:23:23,100
Westeros. 
A lot of really interesting plot

2848
02:23:23,100 --> 02:23:27,500
lines, illyrio tighter Prince 
biggest among them but also the 

2849
02:23:27,500 --> 02:23:30,900
whole blackfyre stuff is still 
running through pentose this 

2850
02:23:30,900 --> 02:23:33,900
point even though, it's so 
they've already It in Westeros 

2851
02:23:33,900 --> 02:23:38,000
they're sort of brain power. 
A lot of the support is coming 

2852
02:23:38,000 --> 02:23:40,500
from pentos so yeah a lot to go 
lots of set up. 

2853
02:23:40,500 --> 02:23:44,400
A lot of interesting stuff will 
see one day how it all plays 

2854
02:23:44,400 --> 02:23:46,900
out. 
Davy Max sends a Super Chat 

2855
02:23:46,900 --> 02:23:48,700
says, thanks history. 
Westeros for all that you do. 

2856
02:23:48,700 --> 02:23:52,300
We appreciate that even though 
nature and technology or both 

2857
02:23:52,300 --> 02:23:55,200
conspiring against us today, we 
plow forward. 

2858
02:23:55,700 --> 02:23:58,700
People said we need to give them
another bonus our because of 

2859
02:23:59,400 --> 02:24:03,100
what is our bonus hour? 
Our. 

2860
02:24:03,100 --> 02:24:07,500
But you know, we'll come back 
with more content in the future.

2861
02:24:07,500 --> 02:24:09,600
I'll tell you what folks will 
make sure the next couple 

2862
02:24:09,600 --> 02:24:11,400
episodes are a little longer. 
How about that? 

2863
02:24:12,200 --> 02:24:13,900
Maybe not the next one. 
The next one is scripted 

2864
02:24:13,900 --> 02:24:15,000
episode. 
It's mantar. 

2865
02:24:15,000 --> 02:24:16,600
He's and those are by Nature a 
little shorter. 

2866
02:24:16,600 --> 02:24:19,900
We don't have as much open 
discussion so by Nature, they're

2867
02:24:19,900 --> 02:24:22,200
shorter but it should be a good 
one. 

2868
02:24:22,500 --> 02:24:26,500
A lot more Valerian lure talking
about the magic and Venturi sits

2869
02:24:26,500 --> 02:24:29,700
right on the outskirts of the 
ruin Peninsula. 

2870
02:24:29,700 --> 02:24:31,900
It's like right there. 
I part of its territory. 

2871
02:24:31,900 --> 02:24:34,100
Would have been obliterated? 
But part of it survived like 

2872
02:24:34,100 --> 02:24:38,200
where the city rest was kind of 
an interesting like Estuary of 

2873
02:24:38,900 --> 02:24:44,300
Fallout and normalcy, but also 
Valerian ancient magic and 

2874
02:24:44,300 --> 02:24:46,500
things like that. 
It's not at all like volantis 

2875
02:24:47,100 --> 02:24:51,300
even though it's similar 
proximity to the ruin Peninsula,

2876
02:24:52,000 --> 02:24:55,200
very different situation. 
Well, we'll be getting into that

2877
02:24:55,200 --> 02:24:57,900
next week that like I said, I'll
be scripted episode so they 

2878
02:24:57,900 --> 02:25:01,500
won't be a live stream. 
And the trivia question is this 

2879
02:25:01,500 --> 02:25:02,900
is one where I actually left 
left. 

2880
02:25:02,900 --> 02:25:05,200
The clue in the episode. 
If you were paying close 

2881
02:25:05,200 --> 02:25:08,300
attention, you may have noticed.
The answer the question again, 

2882
02:25:08,300 --> 02:25:11,200
was the pentoshi historian / 
politician, Jesu. 

2883
02:25:11,200 --> 02:25:14,400
Herodotus wrote a book called 
before the dragons that claim to

2884
02:25:14,400 --> 02:25:17,500
pentos and what other city were 
actually founded for the 

2885
02:25:17,500 --> 02:25:20,600
Freehold. 
The answer is Laura. 

2886
02:25:20,600 --> 02:25:24,400
Yes, Laura and we have an 
episode on Laura. 

2887
02:25:24,400 --> 02:25:26,100
So you could go right to that 
one. 

2888
02:25:26,100 --> 02:25:30,700
Next, if you haven't listened to
it or feel like it's time for a 

2889
02:25:30,700 --> 02:25:36,000
real, listen, other Foods that 
are along these lines, that 

2890
02:25:36,000 --> 02:25:38,100
refer to things. 
We talk about in this episode 

2891
02:25:38,100 --> 02:25:42,300
today, include the other free 
cities like, lease and cohort 

2892
02:25:42,300 --> 02:25:44,300
which we have episodes on us. 
And now we've done four of the 

2893
02:25:44,300 --> 02:25:46,800
nine, free cities. 
The stepstones, of course, came 

2894
02:25:46,800 --> 02:25:51,000
up quite a lot Kingdom of Sorrow
nor as well as ebb. 

2895
02:25:51,400 --> 02:25:55,200
And yeah, one other one that I'm
forgetting now that I've 

2896
02:25:55,200 --> 02:25:58,300
forgotten, but that's enough. 
That's plenty plus. 

2897
02:25:58,500 --> 02:26:02,000
All of our Valerie Rita's for 
especially Dance of the Dragons 

2898
02:26:02,000 --> 02:26:04,700
where a lot of them. 
Rio stuff is and Tyrion stuff 

2899
02:26:04,800 --> 02:26:08,800
riding in the met in the plank 
one with him is some really 

2900
02:26:08,800 --> 02:26:12,200
juicy material. 
It's just all discussion which 

2901
02:26:12,200 --> 02:26:14,100
you know there's so much that 
can come from that tearing and 

2902
02:26:14,100 --> 02:26:16,300
illyrio there. 
That's a great pairing for 

2903
02:26:16,300 --> 02:26:17,900
chatter. 
So that's another good 

2904
02:26:17,900 --> 02:26:21,000
recommendation so if you want us
to cover a different for you 

2905
02:26:21,000 --> 02:26:23,200
City well you better get 
involved in the voting. 

2906
02:26:24,000 --> 02:26:26,400
You can join up with our patreon
for that. 

2907
02:26:26,500 --> 02:26:29,200
That said votes will be coming a
little less often in the short 

2908
02:26:29,200 --> 02:26:34,100
term as we get closer to Valerie
Rita's for Iron blood that's 

2909
02:26:34,100 --> 02:26:37,000
coming in August. 
I think I'll have two more boats

2910
02:26:37,200 --> 02:26:41,200
for for for the short-term W 
more votes in the long term. 

2911
02:26:41,300 --> 02:26:43,200
Yeah. 
Because we have a few weeks off.

2912
02:26:43,500 --> 02:26:46,700
Well one or two weeks off and 
one episode already chosen. 

2913
02:26:46,700 --> 02:26:50,200
We're going to do Under the 
dragons house Hightower for one 

2914
02:26:50,200 --> 02:26:54,000
of our episodes that will be 
period of from the conquest till

2915
02:26:54,000 --> 02:26:56,000
the dance. 
It took us two episodes, do that

2916
02:26:56,000 --> 02:26:59,200
for the north, but for house 
Hightower being just one house 

2917
02:26:59,200 --> 02:27:02,200
and we can do in one but maybe 
it'll just be a really long 

2918
02:27:02,200 --> 02:27:03,900
episode Maybe. 
That'll be part of your extra 

2919
02:27:03,900 --> 02:27:06,700
hour there that will fit in one 
way or another. 

2920
02:27:07,100 --> 02:27:09,700
We got plenty more content to go
the topics. 

2921
02:27:10,100 --> 02:27:15,200
Well remains deep and fully 
unplumbed, we have much more to 

2922
02:27:15,200 --> 02:27:17,200
go. 
Thank you all for being here. 

2923
02:27:17,200 --> 02:27:19,700
Thank you all for supporting us 
if you're one of those who do so

2924
02:27:20,000 --> 02:27:23,200
do so does. 
So either way, if you do so or 

2925
02:27:23,200 --> 02:27:26,500
does we appreciate it? 
Thanks to Nina for her great 

2926
02:27:26,500 --> 02:27:28,200
notes. 
Lot of great takes on the future

2927
02:27:28,200 --> 02:27:31,600
of pentos and navigating the 
difficulties and complexities of

2928
02:27:31,600 --> 02:27:34,400
illyrio, the tatter prints and 
Any and Tyrion and all that 

2929
02:27:34,400 --> 02:27:37,900
information and order. 
It might come out in how it 

2930
02:27:37,900 --> 02:27:40,000
might go. 
It's really super interesting. 

2931
02:27:40,600 --> 02:27:42,800
George has done a great job of 
setting it up without making 

2932
02:27:42,800 --> 02:27:44,700
clear on what's gonna happen. 
Why do you think we can kind of 

2933
02:27:44,700 --> 02:27:46,100
see where it's going? 
This is one words. 

2934
02:27:46,100 --> 02:27:49,200
Like I could perceive a lot of 
different directions for this to

2935
02:27:49,200 --> 02:27:51,800
go even though some things are 
pretty likely to happen. 

2936
02:27:51,800 --> 02:27:55,000
Like Danny's, not going to get 
killed by the pentoshi but 

2937
02:27:55,000 --> 02:27:59,400
pretty much everyone else. 
Other than like Tyrion is like 

2938
02:27:59,500 --> 02:28:03,500
good die or change sides or out.
Don't know what. 

2939
02:28:03,500 --> 02:28:07,500
Yeah, and you know not that 
those two characters couldn't 

2940
02:28:07,500 --> 02:28:08,800
die later. 
It's not content. 

2941
02:28:08,800 --> 02:28:15,000
Açaí and there's a lot more to 
characters Arc and die or not. 

2942
02:28:15,000 --> 02:28:16,400
Die right there. 
Absolutely. 

2943
02:28:16,500 --> 02:28:19,500
It's sort of directions and 
Mysteries and whatnot. 

2944
02:28:20,500 --> 02:28:22,800
Sprouting out from this or 
infinite. 

2945
02:28:23,200 --> 02:28:26,300
Discounting who dies or dozens. 
Yeah, it's like one of those 

2946
02:28:26,300 --> 02:28:27,900
things where this is one of 
those episodes where a lot of 

2947
02:28:27,900 --> 02:28:29,900
times you have to feel this way 
because there's no it never ends

2948
02:28:29,900 --> 02:28:31,300
like the things we can say about
these things. 

2949
02:28:31,300 --> 02:28:35,000
But this is one where I feel 
like It feels particularly 

2950
02:28:35,000 --> 02:28:38,700
incomplete because of all the 
plot lines that are just getting

2951
02:28:38,700 --> 02:28:40,600
big. 
You know, that we could only 

2952
02:28:40,600 --> 02:28:43,300
guess on and there's the like 
with George's imagination. 

2953
02:28:43,300 --> 02:28:45,400
We couldn't possibly guess all 
the things that makes 

2954
02:28:45,600 --> 02:28:48,300
considering. 
It's almost like a chess game 

2955
02:28:48,300 --> 02:28:50,100
where there's like, Psy basket 
there. 

2956
02:28:50,300 --> 02:28:52,600
There are these. 
Yeah, there, they like these, if

2957
02:28:52,600 --> 02:28:57,200
then questions, but there's 
several different ones and just 

2958
02:28:57,200 --> 02:29:01,300
going to like the third or 
fourth level of an, if been when

2959
02:29:01,300 --> 02:29:04,200
you have like eight different 
Has to work with it. 

2960
02:29:04,200 --> 02:29:07,700
You're getting the thousands of 
potential outcomes really fast. 

2961
02:29:07,700 --> 02:29:08,600
Yeah. 
That's where the phrase 

2962
02:29:08,600 --> 02:29:10,700
permutations are to come in. 
Because it's like, there's so 

2963
02:29:10,700 --> 02:29:13,700
many becomes Beyond 
possibilities. 

2964
02:29:14,400 --> 02:29:16,600
They're so mad. 
It's like possibilities doesn't 

2965
02:29:16,700 --> 02:29:20,000
doesn't do it justice. 
So, yeah, it's also thanks to 

2966
02:29:20,100 --> 02:29:23,100
Joey Jesse and brand for the 
music and video intro. 

2967
02:29:23,100 --> 02:29:25,800
And Michael are felled for the 
same, plus the maps behind us 

2968
02:29:26,100 --> 02:29:28,700
and to our benjin ear, who's 
going to have a little extra 

2969
02:29:28,700 --> 02:29:31,300
work to do today. 
Given the power outage there 

2970
02:29:31,300 --> 02:29:34,100
that's knocked out our made our 
Sewed, split up. 

2971
02:29:34,100 --> 02:29:36,300
If you're listening to the 
podcast version of this, you 

2972
02:29:36,300 --> 02:29:38,800
wouldn't have noticed that but 
if you're watching on YouTube 

2973
02:29:39,100 --> 02:29:43,200
yeah I'm certainly assuming you 
got Barn which most of you did 

2974
02:29:43,200 --> 02:29:47,700
because y'all tend to watch most
of the most if not all the 

2975
02:29:47,700 --> 02:29:49,700
episodes a lot of y'all was like
hey what happened? 

2976
02:29:49,700 --> 02:29:53,000
It's just they just stopped. 
Yep, well that's live streaming 

2977
02:29:53,000 --> 02:29:56,500
for a live stream life stuff 
happens and we'll be back with 

2978
02:29:56,500 --> 02:29:59,900
another soon and you know what 
to do in the meantime. 

2979
02:30:00,900 --> 02:30:02,000
Bell are reread it.
