1
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:52,600
Legend tells us that nymeria 
took 10,000 ships to see 

2
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,000
searching for a new home for her
people Beyond The Long Reach of 

3
00:00:56,008 --> 00:01:00,600
valyria and it's dragonlords 
belgica argues that this number 

4
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:04,900
was vastly inflated perhaps as 
much as tenfold other 

5
00:01:04,900 --> 00:01:08,900
chroniclers offer other numbers.
But in truth no true Count was 

6
00:01:08,900 --> 00:01:11,300
ever made. 
We can safely. 

7
00:01:11,300 --> 00:01:15,800
Say there were a great many 
ships most were River crafts 

8
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,800
gifts and pole boats trade 
Daddy's fishing boats, pleasure,

9
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:24,100
barges, even rafts. 
Their decks and holds crammed 

10
00:01:24,100 --> 00:01:26,400
full of women and children and 
old men. 

11
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:31,900
Only one in ten was remotely, 
seaworthy bailed car into this 

12
00:01:32,500 --> 00:01:35,100
nymeria. 
His voyage was long and terrible

13
00:01:35,700 --> 00:01:38,900
more than 100 ships. 
Founded and sank in the first 

14
00:01:38,900 --> 00:01:43,200
storm have lead encountered, as 
many or more turned back in fear

15
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,800
and were taken by slavers out of
Atlantis, others fell behind. 

16
00:01:47,900 --> 00:01:50,600
Door drifted away, never to be 
seen again. 

17
00:01:51,300 --> 00:01:55,200
The remainder of the fleet 
limped across the summer sea to 

18
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:59,400
the Basilisk Isles, one of the 
things I find special about the 

19
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,500
Song of Ice and Fire fandom is 
that George RR Martin's books. 

20
00:02:02,500 --> 00:02:05,700
Have taught us to consider 
perspectives other than our own 

21
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,800
the nature of seeing the story 
via differing povs lends itself 

22
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,400
to us exercising, whatever parts
of the brain we use. 

23
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,300
When trying to put ourselves in 
someone else's shoes, we'll call

24
00:02:16,300 --> 00:02:20,400
them our perspective. 
This thing is necessary in the 

25
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,400
real world really valuable in 
the real world. 

26
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,300
So it's good that we get a 
little practice while we play in

27
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:29,100
Martin's World, a proper and 
considerate, perspective of 

28
00:02:29,100 --> 00:02:33,300
others who aren't like you and 
even those who are can literally

29
00:02:33,300 --> 00:02:37,600
be a matter of life and death or
of fairness and Justice or just 

30
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,300
basic human understanding the 
Journey of the rhoynar is a 

31
00:02:41,308 --> 00:02:44,500
particularly great workout for 
our perspective muscles. 

32
00:02:44,500 --> 00:02:47,000
Because in this episode, we're 
going to see some of the most 

33
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,500
basic human. 
In emotions, coupled with some 

34
00:02:49,500 --> 00:02:53,000
of the most confusing and hard 
to understand human emotions 

35
00:02:53,500 --> 00:02:57,200
such as the nature of human 
existence that we carry within 

36
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,600
us instincts developed Millenia 
ago. 

37
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,600
They'll experience so many 
different, cultures and 

38
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,300
circumstances and forms of 
suffering. 

39
00:03:04,500 --> 00:03:09,800
All with the backdrop of these 
feelings, and these unknown 

40
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:14,700
circumstances, fear would likely
be the most common emotion 

41
00:03:14,700 --> 00:03:16,500
shared amongst the rhoynar at 
this time. 

42
00:03:16,500 --> 00:03:19,400
Sure, there'd be others. 
But Fear would probably be 

43
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,600
number one. 
I tried to come up with a clever

44
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,200
way to write about fear before 
deciding, to just quote HP 

45
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,500
Lovecraft. 
Instead, someone who spent his 

46
00:03:27,500 --> 00:03:28,900
entire career writing about 
fear. 

47
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,800
He said the oldest and strongest
emotion of mankind is fear and 

48
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,300
the oldest and strongest kind of
fear is fear of the unknown. 

49
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,000
And the unknown is what the 
rhoynar were headed for. 

50
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,500
But if we're on top of our 
Perspective game, we know that 

51
00:03:43,500 --> 00:03:47,800
sometimes what's known to some 
is unknown to others. 

52
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,600
What's familiar to some is 
unfamiliar to others butts with 

53
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,300
Oreos, is unknown to all yet 
known to be deadly and 

54
00:03:55,300 --> 00:03:57,700
dangerous. 
At the same time, somehow we've 

55
00:03:57,700 --> 00:04:01,900
got a combination of fear of the
unknown and fear of the known. 

56
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,900
Along with fear though, there's 
another ancient and Powerful 

57
00:04:05,900 --> 00:04:10,800
instinct which is The will to 
survive the will to live For 

58
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,800
Those whom fear does not 
paralyse the will to survive 

59
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:18,899
wins out and fear is converted 
to Adrenaline and other useful 

60
00:04:18,899 --> 00:04:21,800
energies. 
The story of the rhoynar is a 

61
00:04:21,808 --> 00:04:25,700
story of fear and survival and 
perspective, and so much more 

62
00:04:26,100 --> 00:04:30,600
like giant toads and Butterfly 
Gods, you'll see and hear all 

63
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,600
about it. 
So, hello, and welcome to the 

64
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,800
next episode of history of 
Westeros back, again, I'm a z 

65
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,400
sash. 
Is the best on the other side of

66
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,000
the camera and you'll hear her 
voice throughout this episode as

67
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,500
well. 
Same with Nicole, shik, who is 

68
00:04:43,500 --> 00:04:45,200
doing the voices for this 
episode. 

69
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:50,000
Follow her on Twitter at ink as 
rain, and she's also on the 

70
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,800
vassals of Kings great podcast 
as well as employed with by 

71
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,900
Pitbull.com. 
So she's out there a lot of 

72
00:04:55,900 --> 00:04:57,700
places and doing great voices 
for us. 

73
00:04:58,500 --> 00:05:03,400
So Val are sustained us here. 
We are part 2 with this series 

74
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:07,700
but it serves as a standalone, 
all three parts of Nymeria 

75
00:05:07,700 --> 00:05:11,100
series don't really depend on 
each other, they're very 

76
00:05:11,100 --> 00:05:14,100
episodic the very split. 
They tell each tell their own 

77
00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:17,900
story, I'd say it's best to have
them all together but this 

78
00:05:17,900 --> 00:05:20,000
episode is totally fine on its 
own. 

79
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,400
A couple of quick announcements 
before we get started. 

80
00:05:23,500 --> 00:05:25,900
As always we're always evolving 
the podcast. 

81
00:05:25,900 --> 00:05:27,900
Always trying to make changes. 
Always trying to make it more 

82
00:05:27,900 --> 00:05:31,400
appealing for you guys and 
always trying to make our 

83
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,700
process more efficient better. 
Just in this episode. 

84
00:05:34,700 --> 00:05:37,000
We've got new lighting, we've 
got a new mic, stand a little 

85
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,000
Like that, that, that hopefully 
improve our Sound and Lighting, 

86
00:05:40,900 --> 00:05:43,400
but on the patreon side, we have
a thing. 

87
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:48,800
We've changed in the past, we 
have occasionally done episodes 

88
00:05:49,300 --> 00:05:51,600
that the higher level patrons 
get to vote on. 

89
00:05:52,300 --> 00:05:56,100
And this is worked pretty well, 
but the problem is, sometimes we

90
00:05:56,100 --> 00:05:58,300
choose a topic and it grows into
multiple episodes. 

91
00:05:58,300 --> 00:06:00,500
And if we have a topic that 
grows into multiple episodes, 

92
00:06:00,500 --> 00:06:03,400
that changes the schedule of 
when we can have a vote. 

93
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,000
Well, this year that's happened 
a lot in particular. 

94
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,300
It's happened a lot in the past 
but 2018, it's happened the 

95
00:06:08,300 --> 00:06:10,500
most. 
We had a bloodraven episode that

96
00:06:10,500 --> 00:06:12,800
we thought would maybe be one or
two episodes. 

97
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,500
It turn into three this nymeria 
series. 

98
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:19,300
I thought maybe it would be one 
or two but it's three and so, a 

99
00:06:19,308 --> 00:06:21,200
lot of things have grown up 
staying with Amanda Lee episode.

100
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,000
Mainly if we thought that would 
be one and it was too pretty big

101
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,900
episodes. 
And one thing to do with that 

102
00:06:27,900 --> 00:06:30,300
is, well, I'm not great at these
estimates. 

103
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:35,500
I share that common with George 
I suppose, but we can always 

104
00:06:35,500 --> 00:06:38,400
change course and make do so 
We're going to do from now on is

105
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,400
until the Winds of Winter comes 
out. 

106
00:06:40,900 --> 00:06:44,100
All episodes will be patreon 
voters, episodes and vedran 

107
00:06:44,100 --> 00:06:46,500
voters have kicked ass with 
their choices Crypts of 

108
00:06:46,500 --> 00:06:49,300
Winterfell. 
Septon, Barth this series lots 

109
00:06:49,300 --> 00:06:52,200
of good stuff, summer haul. 
So leaving it in y'all's, hands 

110
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:53,600
is worked out really great for 
us. 

111
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,300
So let's keep that going. 
Let's boost that. 

112
00:06:56,300 --> 00:07:00,700
So again, until the Winds of 
Winter $12, patrons get to vote 

113
00:07:00,700 --> 00:07:05,000
on every single episode until we
that is starting with the ones 

114
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:06,600
ones were wrapped up with these 
current series are still 

115
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,200
ongoing. 
And and that's gonna involve 

116
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,800
topics from Fire and Blood which
of course, is coming out. 

117
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,200
Well, you may already be out by 
the time you're seeing this 

118
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:17,100
episode depends, but either way,
we're all going to be digesting 

119
00:07:17,100 --> 00:07:19,800
that and doing a lot of episodes
about it with that in mind. 

120
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,700
I also want to give our 
shoutouts.

made extinct well in this game 
timeline, they're not extinct. 

138
00:08:13,500 --> 00:08:15,100
In fact they're doing quite 
well. 

139
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,000

144
00:08:33,799 --> 00:08:35,799
gaming, it's a brand new 
channel. 

145
00:08:35,799 --> 00:08:37,100
I don't even think there's 20 
subscribers. 

146
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,200
Yeah, we just put it up and it 
hardly announced it. 

147
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,600
So, it's all the game replays 
will be posted there. 

148
00:08:41,900 --> 00:08:45,200
Let's get going last episode had
a lot of tearing and he'll be 

149
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,800
back in this episode as well. 
A bit will also see some 

150
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,200
Victorian but again the most 
relevant a song by some 

151
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,900
character parallel is almost 
certainly Daenerys. 

152
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,600
Tearing is obsessed with Lomas 
long Strider and it's been to 

153
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,300
some amazing places including 
several world wonders that you 

154
00:08:59,300 --> 00:09:02,000
read about. 
As a kid, Victorian is an actual

155
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,900
sailor in a sailing culture. 
With a whole Fleet. 

156
00:09:04,900 --> 00:09:06,800
He sells all the way to slavers 
Bay. 

157
00:09:07,300 --> 00:09:11,100
Splitting his Fleet into three 
each traveling around, we'd love

158
00:09:11,100 --> 00:09:16,600
to see but not experienced. 
Both of these two tearing and 

159
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,400
Victorian are a lot older than 
Daenerys yet. 

160
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,800
She's been to more exotic and 
dangerous and interesting places

161
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,300
than both of them put together, 
I think you can make that 

162
00:09:25,300 --> 00:09:27,400
argument. 
I do she's been on the Move 

163
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,000
constantly and even when it 
looks like she's going to stay 

164
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,800
in one place for a while Marine.
Well off she goes doing that. 

165
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,000
Go backwards to go forwards 
thing. 

166
00:09:36,900 --> 00:09:41,000
Now Area and the rhoynar will do
the same in their own way as 

167
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,700
we'll see. 
They'll first try to make a new 

168
00:09:43,700 --> 00:09:48,400
home on their own, only to find 
the only new homes available are

169
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:52,200
in some really terrible 
neighborhoods in the end. 

170
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,100
The independent Ryan are will 
have to go live in someone 

171
00:09:55,100 --> 00:09:59,100
else's house for nymeria herself
that will be house Martell. 

172
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,000
I probably felt like a step back
at first even though in the end.

173
00:10:03,300 --> 00:10:07,000
It did work out really well for 
all involved as far as we. 

174
00:10:07,100 --> 00:10:09,900
No maybe not for the iron woods 
but we'll get to that story. 

175
00:10:09,900 --> 00:10:12,200
Later, that's the story for part
3 here. 

176
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,900
In part 2. 
We're delving deep into those 

177
00:10:14,900 --> 00:10:19,300
attempts to make a new home on 
their own and specifically those

178
00:10:19,300 --> 00:10:21,700
really terrible neighborhoods. 
Imagine by George r.r. 

179
00:10:21,700 --> 00:10:23,600
Martin, we're going to focus on 
those a lot. 

180
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,600
Some of these terrible 
neighborhoods are still around 

181
00:10:27,500 --> 00:10:29,900
one of the reasons Dani and her 
small group weren't quickly. 

182
00:10:29,900 --> 00:10:33,800
Disposed of, by one of the new 
smaller callous ours, which 

183
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:37,000
formed from Drago's huge callous
are, is because she was beneath 

184
00:10:37,100 --> 00:10:39,900
With notice the new calls were 
concerned, with each other, 

185
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,200
attracting men, to follow them 
power plays. 

186
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,300
Basically, Danny's little group 
of 100. 

187
00:10:47,300 --> 00:10:50,800
We're no threat to anyone and 
they didn't offer any benefits 

188
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,300
really either. 
It may have been a bit similar 

189
00:10:54,300 --> 00:10:55,800
for nymeria. 
Sure. 

190
00:10:55,900 --> 00:10:59,700
Even with the doubt expressed in
that opening, quote, we're still

191
00:10:59,700 --> 00:11:03,700
talking around a thousand ships.
At least if not closer to 

192
00:11:03,700 --> 00:11:06,200
10,000. 
The number were given it would 

193
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,400
be easy for the valyrians to 
sink that Fleet though, right? 

194
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:14,900
Dragons would make it almost 
simple but but on the other hand

195
00:11:14,900 --> 00:11:17,200
while I'm sure there were some 
dragonlords who thought that 

196
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,000
sounded like a fun way to spend 
a few evenings. 

197
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:24,800
There's not really any money in 
it and there Was huge wealthy 

198
00:11:24,900 --> 00:11:28,200
Reiner cities just sitting there
waiting to be plundered since 

199
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:29,700
everybody fled. 
Right. 

200
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,900
And their fellow dragonlords, 
probably weren't waiting around 

201
00:11:33,900 --> 00:11:37,200
to share. 
You might say well what about 

202
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,300
capturing those running errands 
and enslaving them? 

203
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,600
That is what the valyrians do, 
after all, that's a fair point. 

204
00:11:42,700 --> 00:11:44,900
But you'd need a lot of people 
to do this. 

205
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:46,900
You'd have to have ships of your
own. 

206
00:11:46,900 --> 00:11:49,900
You can't just burn the ships, 
and then collect the slaves 

207
00:11:49,900 --> 00:11:51,200
afterwards. 
That's not going to work. 

208
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,500
You'll kill them all. 
So A lot of effort, it's kind of

209
00:11:54,500 --> 00:11:58,400
rough to think about this, but 
still I think the prospect of 

210
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:02,300
massive blue just sitting there 
in those cities was more 

211
00:12:02,700 --> 00:12:05,000
important for the valyrians. 
It may have been kind of an 

212
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:09,200
ironically helpful, diversion to
help the rhoynar Escape. 

213
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,900
Hey, look, take all that gold 
over here while we sneak away 

214
00:12:11,900 --> 00:12:14,100
this way. 
And they maybe they use some of 

215
00:12:14,100 --> 00:12:16,200
their water magic. 
To assist the Escape, right? 

216
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,600
We've seen fogs do a whole lot 
along the Rhine. 

217
00:12:19,900 --> 00:12:22,500
So concealing ships that doesn't
seem Out of Bounds at all. 

218
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,600
It's actually pretty 
straightforward as far as these 

219
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,300
things go. 
Heck Bravo, the whole city was 

220
00:12:27,300 --> 00:12:30,300
partly concealed by fog for so 
long Valeri. 

221
00:12:30,300 --> 00:12:33,000
I didn't even know what that 
they existed for a while and 

222
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,000
then didn't know where they were
for a long time. 

223
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:39,000
It took braavos revealing 
themselves to the world for that

224
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,000
to happen. 
As for their intended 

225
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,700
destination, it seems they may 
have chosen tooth Oreos from the

226
00:12:43,700 --> 00:12:46,000
outset. 
If you look at the map, the 

227
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,200
route is not direct. 
They could have gone straight to

228
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,800
Door nor any of the other 
eventual destinations first. 

229
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,600
One of the first questions we 
considered is a question that 

230
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,500
has existed in the fandom for 
quite some time. 

231
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,800
We know the rhoynar ended up in 
Dorne but but we also know they 

232
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,500
went to quite a few other places
first. 

233
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,500
So why didn't they had to 
Westeros sooner? 

234
00:13:04,500 --> 00:13:07,000
Why wasn't that their first 
choice and the follow-up? 

235
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,500
Question is, why Seth Oreos? 
No matter what the other answers

236
00:13:10,500 --> 00:13:13,500
are because that base is 
basically a nightmare, right? 

237
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,000
Straight, South is the Summer 
Isles. 

238
00:13:16,100 --> 00:13:19,500
A place they ended up for a 
while later so it's interesting.

239
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,000
I think the initial question is 
easier than the follow-up 

240
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:27,100
Westeros and the Summer Isles 
are and were full of people who 

241
00:13:27,100 --> 00:13:29,500
would not necessarily be 
friendly to a whole bunch of 

242
00:13:29,508 --> 00:13:33,000
foreigners just showing up ready
to move in even if they were, 

243
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,800
mostly women and right there 
supposed to be a joke about 

244
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,700
haha, of course, the dornishman 
were happy to have a bunch of 

245
00:13:38,700 --> 00:13:42,300
women show up like that, but 
that's kind of the point. 

246
00:13:42,300 --> 00:13:45,300
Among other reasons, it's 
exactly why a group of mostly 

247
00:13:45,300 --> 00:13:48,500
women wouldn't want to go live 
where there's already a bunch of

248
00:13:48,500 --> 00:13:51,400
men, right? 
This is the, this is a 

249
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,300
perspective. 
Question that comes up really 

250
00:13:53,300 --> 00:13:56,000
big here, even though they had 
quite a few warrior women, the 

251
00:13:56,008 --> 00:14:00,400
group, they were still a refugee
population and far too many men.

252
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,800
Look at a refugee population of 
women, as some kind of 

253
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,500
opportunity, rather than 
something to treat with 

254
00:14:05,500 --> 00:14:07,600
compassion, and to help out 
right. 

255
00:14:07,700 --> 00:14:11,700
Especially in this setting, But 
on the other hand, the wrong are

256
00:14:11,700 --> 00:14:13,200
didn't exactly have a lot of 
choices. 

257
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,400
But they did pick a chance to 
carve out their own destiny, 

258
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,000
rather than submitting to 
someone else's laws or things 

259
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,000
worse than laws. 
But talk about the proverbial 

260
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:27,000
rock and a hard place here. 
Forging a new life on a wild 

261
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,600
frontier Trope. 
It may seem romantic but we're 

262
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,400
talking about the disease-ridden
horror filled Jungle of 

263
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,800
sutorius. 
It's not so romantic according 

264
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:39,900
to the measures anyway. 
That's what they think the 30s 

265
00:14:39,900 --> 00:14:42,200
is like which is a point in and 
of itself. 

266
00:14:42,300 --> 00:14:43,900
More perspective is necessary 
here. 

267
00:14:44,500 --> 00:14:47,800
What we're told about the world 
of ice and fire with regards to 

268
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,400
Sith Oreos isn't necessarily all
that similar to what the rhoynar

269
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,700
knew about it, especially 
considering there's a Time Gap 

270
00:14:54,700 --> 00:14:59,400
here of 72, a thousand years, 
seven hundred thousand years. 

271
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,900
Something like that. 
For example statement like this 

272
00:15:02,100 --> 00:15:05,400
slave is Traders and treasure 
Hunters have visited South 

273
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:09,500
Aureus over the centuries but 
only the boldest ever Venture 

274
00:15:09,500 --> 00:15:12,400
far from their Coastal 
Garrison's and enclaves to 

275
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,200
explore the mysteries of the 
cosmos. 

276
00:15:14,300 --> 00:15:18,900
Continents, vast interior. 
Those that dare more often than 

277
00:15:18,900 --> 00:15:22,900
not set forth into the green, 
never to be seen again. 

278
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,400
That's a good example of a 
maesters educated opinion. 

279
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,300
Right. 
Mostly formed by reading and as 

280
00:15:29,300 --> 00:15:32,400
we talked about in the first 
episode there are some issues 

281
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:36,500
with only reading about things, 
the maesters are unlikely to 

282
00:15:36,500 --> 00:15:38,500
have all the best sources, 
right? 

283
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:43,200
On the 30s anyway. 
Other things sure you could say 

284
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,300
that the descendants of the 
rhoynar who lived in sutorius 

285
00:15:46,300 --> 00:15:50,700
are still am alive in Westeros 
and a few other places today and

286
00:15:50,700 --> 00:15:54,400
they're still likely telling 
some of those Tails, I bet if 

287
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,300
some of the measures, when 
interviewed some of the Orphans 

288
00:15:56,300 --> 00:15:58,400
of the green blood, they might 
get some interesting stories 

289
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,500
passed down to them, but this 
would be something like seven 

290
00:16:01,500 --> 00:16:04,800
centuries of knowledge passed 
down, so, it would probably have

291
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,200
drifted a little bit. 
Still, probably a fantastic 

292
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,200
Story. 
The point being though, they're 

293
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,000
still Something to be said for 
perspective, even in this, it's 

294
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,300
not just a maesters who likely 
have a few things wrong, the 

295
00:16:15,300 --> 00:16:18,300
Royal Guards perspective might 
have been off, in fact, decent 

296
00:16:18,300 --> 00:16:20,300
chance. 
It was, as we saw in part 1, 

297
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,400
they weren't the most 
outward-looking people, they 

298
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,700
were internally focused, not 
necessary, wrong with that but 

299
00:16:26,700 --> 00:16:31,100
it is a problem for them. 
Now, in this scenario, lots of 

300
00:16:31,100 --> 00:16:33,900
reasons to love them for sure 
but they weren't at the top of 

301
00:16:33,900 --> 00:16:36,600
the list for knowledge of people
and places around the world, 

302
00:16:36,700 --> 00:16:38,400
that was maybe a shortcoming of 
theirs. 

303
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,100
And that's To come up big here 
since the story of nine Mary and

304
00:16:42,100 --> 00:16:44,600
the Rhine Arts filled with 
parallels to Daenerys, I find 

305
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,400
this to be a brilliant but 
subtle piece of writing by 

306
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,000
George r.r., Martin. 
He wrote the rhoynar as a people

307
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:54,000
who are highly cultured but not 
worldly, they stay on the run 

308
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,800
and a big reason they like to 
stay home is because home was 

309
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,300
amazing. 
The best place to live in the 

310
00:16:59,300 --> 00:17:03,100
world probably but even more 
importantly it was home. 

311
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:07,500
Home is whatever you make it and
it had been their home for eons 

312
00:17:07,500 --> 00:17:11,500
uncountable years. 
Home can seem like the best even

313
00:17:11,500 --> 00:17:14,500
when it probably wouldn't seem 
that way to anyone else, but in 

314
00:17:14,500 --> 00:17:17,000
the reinhardt's case, it 
probably would seem like the 

315
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,300
best anyone coming from 
anywhere. 

316
00:17:19,700 --> 00:17:22,900
At least often enough and you 
can be proud of that, right? 

317
00:17:22,900 --> 00:17:27,500
If your home is something that 
everyone looks with with aw, you

318
00:17:27,500 --> 00:17:31,600
know, that Imagine The Pride 
that people would have in a home

319
00:17:31,700 --> 00:17:36,200
that everyone praises. 
And then imagine the sorrow of 

320
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:40,000
having that and losing it. 
So that's another piece of 

321
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,300
important perspective. 
Keep in mind as well throughout 

322
00:17:42,300 --> 00:17:45,100
this episode. 
Every time the Rhine are arrived

323
00:17:45,100 --> 00:17:48,200
at a new destination. 
Many of them just wouldn't be 

324
00:17:48,208 --> 00:17:50,800
able to help but compare it to 
what they lost. 

325
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,600
And nothing would ever compare 
to Mother rowing, especially not

326
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,800
in sutorius as they sailed off 
despite their own dangers. 

327
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,500
Many would think of those Left 
Behind who couldn't escape 

328
00:18:02,900 --> 00:18:06,400
they'd be aware that At right in
that very moment, their cities 

329
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,200
were being looted and burned 
this would reflect in their 

330
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,500
culture as well. 
We're on our music would have 

331
00:18:12,500 --> 00:18:15,500
taken to turn their be less love
and joy, more sorrow and 

332
00:18:15,500 --> 00:18:18,700
tragedy, ditto artwork and 
sculptures, and anything along 

333
00:18:18,700 --> 00:18:20,500
those lines. 
And he sort of books that were 

334
00:18:20,500 --> 00:18:21,800
being written. 
If they could even still do 

335
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:23,100
that, maybe they didn't have 
paper. 

336
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,700
Think of how the Palace of Love,
became the Palace of sorrow and 

337
00:18:27,700 --> 00:18:28,800
you get the idea. 
That's it. 

338
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,500
In a nutshell, there would be 
depression and Trauma and some 

339
00:18:32,500 --> 00:18:35,200
might just jump into the sea and
end it, but the world of love 

340
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,700
was strong in many. 
And they persisted the Journey 

341
00:18:38,700 --> 00:18:42,000
of nymeria and the rhoynar could
be called an odyssey. 

342
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,200
It is quite a lot like the 
story, where Odyssey gets his 

343
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:49,500
name, which is well the Odyssey.
The Greek hero Odysseus was lost

344
00:18:49,500 --> 00:18:54,400
at sea for much longer than 
nymeria and he to encounter Many

345
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:59,200
different lands, mostly islands 
and fantastic creatures unlike 

346
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,300
nymeria, though. 
Odysseus eventually got to go 

347
00:19:02,300 --> 00:19:05,600
back. 
Home the name, 10,000 ships also

348
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,300
reminds us of the famous ten 
thousand mercenaries of ancient 

349
00:19:09,300 --> 00:19:13,500
Greece as recorded by xenophon. 
They fought for Cyrus the 

350
00:19:13,500 --> 00:19:17,800
younger against artaxerxes for 
the Persian Throne only to find 

351
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:21,300
themselves stranded and 
leaderless in a foreign land 

352
00:19:21,300 --> 00:19:23,500
they had to fight their way back
through many. 

353
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:28,600
Dial lands and unknown people's 
while facing disease exposure 

354
00:19:28,700 --> 00:19:31,800
and starvation. 
But like Odysseus. 

355
00:19:32,100 --> 00:19:37,300
They also eventually got to go 
home, how unfair for the rhoynar

356
00:19:37,500 --> 00:19:40,500
Beauty. 
And the Basilisk a concept that 

357
00:19:40,500 --> 00:19:44,800
we see with Danny Sansa Cersei 
Arianne and several. 

358
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,900
Others is the power of beauty 
and politics and Leadership. 

359
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,700
There's a version of this for 
men to consider the star power 

360
00:19:50,700 --> 00:19:53,000
of Daemon. 
Blackfyre Renly Baratheon is our

361
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,800
handsome guys but that's another
story. 

362
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,300
This one's about nymeria, who 
seems to belong in this category

363
00:19:57,300 --> 00:19:59,900
to this is the world of ice and 
fire calls, her Fierce and 

364
00:19:59,900 --> 00:20:02,300
beautiful just like Santa or 
Danny. 

365
00:20:02,300 --> 00:20:05,300
It would be completely wrong to 
say, their popularity is rooted 

366
00:20:05,300 --> 00:20:08,400
in their looks but it would also
be wrong to say it's relevant. 

367
00:20:08,500 --> 00:20:11,700
It matters for sure sir. 
See quite clearly tells Sansa to

368
00:20:11,700 --> 00:20:15,100
use her beauty as a weapon and 
she takes this advice to Heart. 

369
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,300
Men will fight over the right to
wear a lady's favor. 

370
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,500
They will do crazy things to win
the attention of a beautiful 

371
00:20:21,500 --> 00:20:24,100
Highborn woman, even just a 
little attention really. 

372
00:20:24,100 --> 00:20:27,200
It's kind of crazy thing cars, 
oakheart, if you want a really 

373
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:31,700
extreme example of guy losing 
it, he's a good example here, as

374
00:20:31,700 --> 00:20:34,100
well, though, I have no idea of 
nymeria was sleeping with 

375
00:20:34,100 --> 00:20:35,700
anyone. 
That's not the point. 

376
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,300
The point is our, he's was young
and impressionable and capable 

377
00:20:38,300 --> 00:20:41,800
of extreme suicidal bravery. 
As we saw, there would be plenty

378
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,100
of guilt and shame among the 
rhoynar people. 

379
00:20:44,100 --> 00:20:46,700
Even the young people who could 
Not have really done anything. 

380
00:20:46,700 --> 00:20:48,100
Still they be. 
They be thinking. 

381
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,500
I wish I'd done more to prevent 
the fall of our people. 

382
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:55,100
Now, perhaps nymeria was skilled
at handling, these raw and 

383
00:20:55,100 --> 00:20:58,300
painful emotions widespread 
among her people, maybe she was 

384
00:20:58,300 --> 00:21:00,500
able to turn that into something
productive. 

385
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,100
That's the mark of a good leader
and she did lead them throughout

386
00:21:03,100 --> 00:21:05,700
all this time. 
Perhaps not though, I'm just 

387
00:21:05,700 --> 00:21:08,300
guessing, but if this quote is 
any indication, she was at least

388
00:21:08,300 --> 00:21:11,300
good at getting something, a 
little extra out of her people, 

389
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,500
through the knowledge that they 
would be pleasing, her, her 

390
00:21:14,500 --> 00:21:19,400
esteem was Princess ileandra 
came young to her seat and 

391
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:23,400
thought herself a new nymeria a 
fiery young woman. 

392
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,700
She encouraged her Lords and 
knights to prove themselves 

393
00:21:26,700 --> 00:21:29,700
worthy of her favors by raiding 
in the marches. 

394
00:21:30,300 --> 00:21:32,600
A LeAndre is, of course, named 
Marius descendant. 

395
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:37,000
And seems to be emulating her. 
So if this is what we see from 

396
00:21:37,100 --> 00:21:40,500
how to emulate nymeria, then 
we've got a clue here, but 

397
00:21:40,500 --> 00:21:43,500
princess Allie under presided 
over a United and strong and 

398
00:21:43,500 --> 00:21:46,800
independent dorm while Prince. 
Yes, nymeria presided over a 

399
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,600
lost people who frequently found
themselves in Desperate. 

400
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,000
Dangerous situations. 
They're constantly faced with 

401
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,900
unknowns and the unknowns and 
authorities are often deadly 

402
00:21:54,900 --> 00:21:56,700
again. 
Remember and let's not forget 

403
00:21:56,700 --> 00:21:58,500
our lesson about fear of the 
unknown. 

404
00:21:59,300 --> 00:22:01,500
In other words, the trials and 
tribulations and constant 

405
00:22:01,500 --> 00:22:03,400
dangers. 
The rowing are dealt with were 

406
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,900
also opportunities to prove 
their bravery. 

407
00:22:06,300 --> 00:22:08,500
And this after a long time it 
see where many of them would 

408
00:22:08,500 --> 00:22:11,400
have been pretty helpless just 
sitting on a ship, not to 

409
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,800
mention ashamed, having to leave
home and having lost to valyria 

410
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,600
the long end. 
Recall, the demographics here 

411
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:19,300
too. 
And that there was a lack of 

412
00:22:19,300 --> 00:22:21,900
adult males, and the formerly 
numerous female worker class 

413
00:22:21,900 --> 00:22:24,700
would be largely gone as well. 
There were still many of them 

414
00:22:24,700 --> 00:22:28,100
left, but generally speaking. 
There's just a lack of adults 

415
00:22:28,100 --> 00:22:31,500
period with the disproportionate
amount of Elders and children in

416
00:22:31,500 --> 00:22:34,400
the group, the leadership roles 
would be filled by Elders for 

417
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,800
the most part. 
I think just guessing it makes 

418
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,000
sense, right? 
But the active roles, the new 

419
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,500
warrior class, the new people 
that had to exert themselves on 

420
00:22:42,500 --> 00:22:44,300
a regular basis to get things 
done. 

421
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,900
The role that requires strength 
And stamina and Agility and 

422
00:22:46,900 --> 00:22:48,600
maybe youth. 
Well, that's where we would 

423
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:49,900
expect a lot of these young 
people to start. 

424
00:22:49,900 --> 00:22:52,300
Stepping up. 
So, you'd see, young people 

425
00:22:52,300 --> 00:22:54,600
getting experience at an earlier
age than they would have by 

426
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,500
necessity. 
Many of these young people would

427
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:02,500
probably be inclined to commit 
conspicuous acts of Bravery to 

428
00:23:02,500 --> 00:23:05,400
get noticed to earn these roles 
think of it. 

429
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:10,000
Most of the bravest were gone. 
It was a time for new Heroes to 

430
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,500
emerge, and this would be a 
shining star on the horizon for 

431
00:23:13,500 --> 00:23:16,500
many who had lost just about 
everything at It was a chance to

432
00:23:16,500 --> 00:23:20,000
prove themselves at least it was
an opportunity to rise among 

433
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,900
their society. 
The girls are going to be like 

434
00:23:21,900 --> 00:23:24,700
nymeria, a lot of them and the 
girls and boys would both want 

435
00:23:24,700 --> 00:23:27,200
to win her favor and she's not 
married. 

436
00:23:27,700 --> 00:23:30,800
I'll come up later to even 
though they were headed towards 

437
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,000
attempted independent. 
Since with Oreos, she may have 

438
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,600
anticipated needing to marry a 
local ruler wherever they 

439
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:39,500
settled and kept her options 
open in case it came to that. 

440
00:23:39,700 --> 00:23:43,000
But she needn't actually tell 
anyone that right? 

441
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,700
She could have kept it kind of 
open-ended and he used that 

442
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:52,600
mystery as a incentive to other 
rhoynar who maybe wanted to 

443
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,800
marry her. 
They would do great Deeds to try

444
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,300
to win her affection or 
attention, even though they 

445
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:03,400
probably didn't have a chance. 
Discounting problems at Sea and 

446
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,200
weather and Logistics and 
marriage. 

447
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,000
Proposals. 
The first chance anyone would 

448
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,300
have to show bravery against the
foe, would be the first place. 

449
00:24:10,300 --> 00:24:12,800
They came to. 
So, whatever the reason is the 

450
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,400
wrong arm shows, the thaw Rios 
as their new home. 

451
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,800
It meant passing through the 
Basilisk Isles, thus nymeria and

452
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,900
the 10,000 ships had to lead her
people through, what isn't such 

453
00:24:21,900 --> 00:24:24,100
a nice place. 
It's the first bad neighborhood.

454
00:24:24,100 --> 00:24:27,300
We're going to talk about on 
their way to migrating to and 

455
00:24:27,300 --> 00:24:30,300
even less nice place called a 
warm-up. 

456
00:24:31,100 --> 00:24:34,600
Opening for worse. 
Things to come the Basilisk, 

457
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:38,200
Isles are the islands off the 
Northwestern coast of South 

458
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,400
Oreos. 
There's some creepy cool stuff 

459
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,900
going on down here. 
Ancient peoples, Lost Cities, 

460
00:24:42,900 --> 00:24:45,700
Fantastical beasts, let's talk 
about it. 

461
00:24:46,300 --> 00:24:49,400
Basilisks the creatures, the 
aisles are named after were 

462
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,500
apparently more common on the 
aisles in ancient days, but are 

463
00:24:51,500 --> 00:24:54,600
either wiped off the islands or 
nearly so more on them and many 

464
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,600
other fearsome creatures when we
get two Sith Oreos, there's some

465
00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:59,700
graders, aren't the problem on 
the Basilisk Isles, despite the 

466
00:24:59,700 --> 00:25:02,500
name, indeed. 
The people for the problem here,

467
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,900
the basilisks have long 
centuries been the festering, 

468
00:25:06,900 --> 00:25:10,700
sore of the summer. 
Sea inhabited only by corsairs 

469
00:25:10,700 --> 00:25:15,700
Pirates, slavers sellswords 
murderers and Monsters, the 

470
00:25:15,700 --> 00:25:18,900
worst of humanity. 
They come from every land 

471
00:25:18,900 --> 00:25:22,200
beneath the sun. 
It is said for only here. 

472
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:25,900
Can such men hope to find others
of their own ilk. 

473
00:25:26,100 --> 00:25:28,100
Since the people are said to 
come from all over the locals, 

474
00:25:28,100 --> 00:25:30,600
would have had a very diverse 
genetic makeup and it's not 

475
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:32,500
clear. 
If there are true natives, or if

476
00:25:32,500 --> 00:25:35,900
the first humans, in the area 
came from say SOS or perhaps the

477
00:25:35,900 --> 00:25:38,700
summer, I'll hours, for example,
if not from Cerritos itself, 

478
00:25:38,700 --> 00:25:41,600
right? 
So we need a few character from 

479
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,000
the Basilisk Isles in a song by 
some fire like this one whom 

480
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,500
Dario tells us is a new recruit 
for the stormcrows. 

481
00:25:46,500 --> 00:25:50,000
He sounds excited for Danny to 
meet him and Ax Men from the 

482
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,400
Basilisk Isles. 
A brute bigger than beloit's, he

483
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,500
says a brute bigger than 
beloit's from the basilisks. 

484
00:25:55,700 --> 00:25:58,000
Boom bit excited to meet him 
too. 

485
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,000
Daenerys is story has quite a 
lot to do with uniting. 

486
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,300
Disparate people's right? 
The stallion who mounts the 

487
00:26:03,308 --> 00:26:05,400
world is supposed to have the 
biggest callous are ever. 

488
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,000
So it's fitting. 
The her Army is gradually 

489
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,400
getting even more diverse as it 
grows larger. 

490
00:26:09,500 --> 00:26:12,200
It's going to be interesting and
at times bloody when Westeros 

491
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,600
has to confront, its xenophobia 
about several different cultures

492
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,900
all at once coming with Daddy, 
right? 

493
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:19,500
What will surprise them? 
More things? 

494
00:26:19,500 --> 00:26:23,100
They've never seen before or 
never seen before versions of 

495
00:26:23,100 --> 00:26:24,900
things they have seen. 
Before we're touching a little 

496
00:26:24,900 --> 00:26:29,000
bit on fear of the unknown and 
fear of the known again of Us 

497
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,000
we're touching on perspective. 
Again, many in Westeros would be

498
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:35,900
shocked to see the likes of Sir.
Tom Colo who may be the first 

499
00:26:35,900 --> 00:26:37,600
ever night from the Basilisk 
Isles. 

500
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,300
Like first ever ever, not just 
in the series, he is black as 

501
00:26:41,300 --> 00:26:43,800
maesters ink. 
It says, but it isn't his skin 

502
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:45,700
color, that would surprise, 
people least not much a 

503
00:26:45,708 --> 00:26:47,400
dark-skinned night. 
Would not be a new site in 

504
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:48,900
Westeros given the salty 
dornish. 

505
00:26:48,900 --> 00:26:51,500
Whose blood is quite a. 
Lot of our subject rhoynar 

506
00:26:52,100 --> 00:26:56,100
rather sir tumko was casually 
ticketed for Greatness by George

507
00:26:56,100 --> 00:26:58,100
r.r. 
Martin barristan, selmy 

508
00:26:58,100 --> 00:27:00,600
considers. 
I'm the best natural swordsman 

509
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,000
he seen. 
Since Jaime Lannister, strong 

510
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,400
and fast. 
That is a huge compliment. 

511
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,800
What a thing to say. 
Jamie is incredible was 

512
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:11,100
incredibly gifted. 
So keep an eye on Tom Cole, oh 

513
00:27:11,100 --> 00:27:17,000
I'd say watch out and will that 
also be a shock to Westeros sir?

514
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,800
Barristan the Bold, one of the 
most famous nights ever to live 

515
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:21,800
in. 
Westeros certainly one of the 

516
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:26,500
most famous recently knighted 
this basilisk, Knight himself. 

517
00:27:27,700 --> 00:27:31,200
Huh, what are they gonna think 
of that or will barristan, 

518
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,000
change, sides, and follow, the 
prince, or King? 

519
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,300
Who thinks he's the son of 
rhaegar and will cir tumko 

520
00:27:37,300 --> 00:27:41,400
follow sir, barristan if so he 
barely knows the Mother of 

521
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,000
Dragons so we'll see interesting
question, isn't it? 

522
00:27:44,300 --> 00:27:47,900
We asked the history of Westeros
podcast, Facebook group to give 

523
00:27:47,900 --> 00:27:50,700
name suggestions first certain 
Colo. 

524
00:27:50,700 --> 00:27:54,600
Most popular suggestions, were 
the dragonglass Night by Kurt 

525
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:59,500
Kuhlman, and Tom Cote Thrice. 
Tried by Rodney carico Thrice 

526
00:27:59,500 --> 00:28:04,100
for the fighting pits, 
Knighthood and War Shira Seastar

527
00:28:04,100 --> 00:28:09,800
gave us their Tom kolos motto, 
they go high, we go low, that's 

528
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,600
pretty good. 
New Beginnings from old 

529
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,800
traditions. 
It's an aerospace has the 

530
00:28:15,808 --> 00:28:18,400
potential of internal Rifts so 
too. 

531
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,800
Should we consider that 
questions of leadership May 

532
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,600
plague nymeria as well? 
But if so, she clearly handled 

533
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,900
those problems and remained in 
charge right though, we compare 

534
00:28:26,900 --> 00:28:30,900
her to Danny nymeria, is perhaps
more impressive here having not 

535
00:28:30,900 --> 00:28:34,000
performed any Miracles along the
lines of hatching dragon eggs 

536
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,800
that we know of like, seriously,
I cannot follow someone that 

537
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,900
does that, I'm Maria. 
Well, she's an amazing leader, 

538
00:28:39,900 --> 00:28:41,500
apparently, but she didn't 
perform any miracles. 

539
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,800
Daenerys, is building a new 
government as she goes, a new 

540
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,300
set of power structures. 
New organizations. 

541
00:28:48,500 --> 00:28:50,900
And she's doing a while 
balancing, the needs of several 

542
00:28:50,900 --> 00:28:54,200
cultures living together, many 
of whom who have not had to live

543
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,600
together before. 
When I put it that way, it 

544
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:59,100
sounds really hard, right? 
Well, the challenge is only 

545
00:28:59,100 --> 00:29:02,700
going to continue to grow, but 
so we'll hear experience in 

546
00:29:02,700 --> 00:29:05,300
dealing with such situations and
we can expect her to add new 

547
00:29:05,300 --> 00:29:08,600
talent to her leadership team as
she's been doing along the way 

548
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,200
and those new talents will 
hopefully help with some of 

549
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,400
this. 
This is extremely similar to 

550
00:29:13,408 --> 00:29:14,800
what we imagined for the 
rhoynar. 

551
00:29:14,900 --> 00:29:17,900
But with several added 
challenges, the rhoynar would 

552
00:29:17,900 --> 00:29:20,600
also have to appoint new leaders
in new roles based on their new 

553
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,500
circumstances. 
All while having to learn new 

554
00:29:22,500 --> 00:29:25,000
skills. 
As a people, they would be 

555
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,200
gradually changing. 
The something else a society 

556
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,200
rebuilt. 
A new in a new location is bound

557
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:35,100
to be new, right? 
Still many. 

558
00:29:35,100 --> 00:29:38,200
If not, most would want to 
preserve as much of running our 

559
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,900
culture as possible. 
But there's no way around the 

560
00:29:40,900 --> 00:29:43,300
fact that so, Much would be 
different. 

561
00:29:43,300 --> 00:29:45,600
How do you have a religion based
around a river? 

562
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,000
You don't live on anymore. 
The old man in the river. 

563
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,100
A turtle lives in the river. 
They fled from they worship 

564
00:29:51,100 --> 00:29:52,800
that. 
Well they're going to still 

565
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,200
worship that. 
Yes, the answer is yes, they 

566
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,900
still are but still not being 
able to see it. 

567
00:29:57,900 --> 00:30:00,700
That's a huge difference and 
there's much worse things than 

568
00:30:00,700 --> 00:30:02,900
Turtles living in the river 
where they're heading and 

569
00:30:02,900 --> 00:30:04,300
they're not going to worship 
Voz. 

570
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:09,300
Imagine worshiping a school of 
piranha or giant crocodile. 

571
00:30:09,700 --> 00:30:11,900
Yeah I can imagine it but it's 
weird. 

572
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,200
They could in probably dead 
still worship The Old Man and 

573
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,700
mother Ryan like I said because 
the Orphans of the green blood 

574
00:30:18,700 --> 00:30:21,200
still did. 
So the rhoynar before them 

575
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,300
probably, did that make sense? 
But again clearly nothing beats 

576
00:30:24,300 --> 00:30:27,300
the real thing here, I want you 
to recall what I said about the 

577
00:30:27,300 --> 00:30:31,000
power of all how Tyrion was 
impressed by the Rhine in books.

578
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,100
But astonished when seeing in 
person impressed and astonished 

579
00:30:34,100 --> 00:30:36,000
there's a pretty big difference 
between In those two, right? 

580
00:30:36,500 --> 00:30:39,300
And that's what the Rhine, our 
workers to hear gone were the 

581
00:30:39,300 --> 00:30:42,500
days of the river simply being 
right there to blow the mind of 

582
00:30:42,500 --> 00:30:46,000
anyone who saw it all while 
providing life to so many gone. 

583
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:50,600
Were the days of Mom, Dad, I get
why we worship that well 

584
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,400
pointing it at the river newborn
rhoynar. 

585
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,200
We only hear stories and those 
stories would be relevant and 

586
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,600
told passionately and reverently
but they'd be stories. 

587
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,600
Wouldn't have the real thing. 
The sad fact was that many 

588
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:07,400
pillars of rhoynish culture. 
We're now gone and irreplaceable

589
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:09,500
e. 
So no matter where they went, it

590
00:31:09,500 --> 00:31:11,500
would never be anything like 
home. 

591
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:16,300
And the Rhine are would start to
merge with these new peoples 

592
00:31:16,300 --> 00:31:19,000
that they lived amongst in the 
end, of course, this would 

593
00:31:19,300 --> 00:31:21,800
mostly be with the dornish, but 
along the way, a few of the 

594
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,300
locals from the many prior 
attempts of colonization would 

595
00:31:24,300 --> 00:31:27,400
have joined them for various 
reasons, such as employment, or 

596
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,200
as mercenaries are Sailors or 
laborers or administrators or 

597
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:33,700
Marrying into it. 
Many would want to learn from 

598
00:31:33,700 --> 00:31:35,700
the rhoynar and their Advanced 
craftsmanship. 

599
00:31:35,700 --> 00:31:38,600
Some might be drawn to run our 
music or worship maybe even the 

600
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,000
magic. 
They might not have the same 

601
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:44,300
materials to build with no pink 
and green marble in the 30's 

602
00:31:44,300 --> 00:31:48,500
probably but they'd still have 
the knowledge of how to build 

603
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:52,600
and that would be valuable. 
And one of love the Rhino, we 

604
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,300
still remember that Cornerstone 
of that culture embodied in 

605
00:31:55,300 --> 00:31:57,900
places like the Palace of Love 
gone but surely not forgotten. 

606
00:31:58,900 --> 00:32:02,400
Perhaps many weight gave way to 
despair, but definitely not 

607
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,300
everyone. 
I doubt that seriously. 

608
00:32:05,100 --> 00:32:08,200
Now we can't always be certain 
which, but some elements of 

609
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,300
rhoynish culture would not be 
lost by the forced migration and

610
00:32:11,300 --> 00:32:13,400
the conditions of their new 
colonies. 

611
00:32:14,500 --> 00:32:17,300
These Traditions that they held 
dear to the ones they could hold

612
00:32:17,300 --> 00:32:19,400
dear to would perhaps become the
new cornerstones. 

613
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,900
Maybe they would rise in a steam
because they were more 

614
00:32:21,900 --> 00:32:25,100
prevalent. 
This is showing you how their 

615
00:32:25,100 --> 00:32:28,200
culture would be evolving and 
becoming a new Society 

616
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:32,300
altogether in many ways, 
thoughts of this nature and many

617
00:32:32,300 --> 00:32:35,200
others would be on nine, areas 
mind during the voyage, but 

618
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,000
perhaps those thoughts would be 
paused, as they caught sight of 

619
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,300
the Basilisk Isles for the first
time. 

620
00:32:41,300 --> 00:32:46,000
The future was becoming now, 
what did they know about these 

621
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,800
aisles before arriving? 
There are forgotten ruins on the

622
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,600
Basilisk Isles, some nameless 
civilization from the dawn age 

623
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:52,700
or earlier. 
Lived there. 

624
00:32:52,700 --> 00:32:56,900
Once perhaps the Rhine are new 
or once knew who they were, 

625
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,500
maybe really long ago, they 
traded with them. 

626
00:33:00,100 --> 00:33:03,500
Maybe, but the people who live 
there now, we're more of a 

627
00:33:03,500 --> 00:33:05,800
pressing concern. 
The rest is just an interesting 

628
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,500
question who live there. 
Thousands of years ago, wasn't 

629
00:33:08,500 --> 00:33:10,700
going to help them with any of 
their problems. 

630
00:33:11,300 --> 00:33:13,900
The new locals repurposed the 
structures of he's long dead 

631
00:33:13,900 --> 00:33:15,900
builders. 
In many cases, in one case, the 

632
00:33:15,900 --> 00:33:18,400
corsairs built a fortress using 
stones from one of these ancient

633
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:21,600
cities, as for the lay of the 
land Islands. 

634
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,400
In this case, there are some 
smaller unnamed ones but the 

635
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:28,000
seven name dials are the Isle of
toads, the Isle of Tears, the I 

636
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,700
love flies skull. 
I'll Exile Talon and Howling 

637
00:33:31,700 --> 00:33:33,700
Mountain. 
I said the people were the 

638
00:33:33,708 --> 00:33:38,700
problem but even without the 
people He's got major issues 

639
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:42,600
life on. 
The basilisks is nasty brutal. 

640
00:33:42,700 --> 00:33:47,900
And off short, hot humid and 
swarming with stinging flies 

641
00:33:47,900 --> 00:33:51,100
sand fleas. 
And bloodworms these islands 

642
00:33:51,100 --> 00:33:55,500
have always proved singularly 
unhealthy for man and Beast 

643
00:33:55,500 --> 00:33:58,600
alike. 
So people do live there and they

644
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,900
are at least somewhat connected 
to the other continents ships 

645
00:34:00,900 --> 00:34:03,000
from the Basilisk Isles. 
Trade in many places around the 

646
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:04,800
world. 
I saw the examples in King's 

647
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:06,800
Landing but Quentin sees a ship 
from the basilisks. 

648
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,000
In volantis perspective again. 
Here we go. 

649
00:34:10,300 --> 00:34:12,600
As it always is with trade. 
You can make a lot by taking 

650
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,100
something considered mundane by 
the locals to a place where it 

651
00:34:15,100 --> 00:34:17,600
is considered exotic. 
And so 30's is a lot of things 

652
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:20,400
that are valuable anywhere you 
go, but quite often, the cargo 

653
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,199
is slaves. 
The Basilisk Isles are full of 

654
00:34:23,199 --> 00:34:25,199
slavers. 
So the Ryanair while fleeing 

655
00:34:25,199 --> 00:34:28,300
slavery at the hands of Larry 
had to face more slavers worse. 

656
00:34:28,500 --> 00:34:31,300
The slavers of the battle styles
were not unlikely to turn around

657
00:34:31,300 --> 00:34:34,500
and sell them to valyria. 
So either way, you end up with 

658
00:34:34,500 --> 00:34:38,199
Valerian slave, a lot of these 
cases So with that one, very 

659
00:34:38,199 --> 00:34:42,100
large exception of slavery in 
mind, as bad as the islands are 

660
00:34:42,100 --> 00:34:44,600
all around, they're still 
preferable to the mainland. 

661
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,500
Somehow, the Allens are clear of
the thing that they were named 

662
00:34:47,500 --> 00:34:51,100
for, but there's no chance, 
humans can drive species to 

663
00:34:51,100 --> 00:34:53,900
Extinction on this huge 
continent like they could on a 

664
00:34:53,900 --> 00:34:57,100
mirror Island. 
Victorian of all people gives us

665
00:34:57,107 --> 00:35:02,700
his thoughts, the eye, and suta 
A Dance with Dragons. 

666
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:07,200
The swiftest ships, he gave to 
read Ralph Stone House, House to

667
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:09,200
sail. 
The corsairs road along the 

668
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:13,200
northern coast of South Aureus 
the dead cities rotting on that 

669
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:14,900
fervid sweltering. 
Sure. 

670
00:35:14,900 --> 00:35:19,500
Were best avoided every Seaman 
new but in the mud and blood 

671
00:35:19,500 --> 00:35:24,000
towns of the basilisks Isles, 
teeming with escaped slaves, 

672
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:28,900
slavers Skinner's, whores 
Hunters, brindled men and worse.

673
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,200
There were always Provisions to 
be had for men who were not 

674
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:37,700
afraid to pay the iron price. 
This is 30 to Ships were talking

675
00:35:37,700 --> 00:35:40,400
about and is Victoria notes 
earlier in the chapter, only 

676
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,500
nine of that group of 30 to 40, 
made it to the Rendezvous. 

677
00:35:44,100 --> 00:35:47,400
This accounts for at least half 
of Vic's, total missing ships, 

678
00:35:47,700 --> 00:35:50,000
red Ralph himself didn't make it
this. 

679
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,300
By the way, I think is a far 
more plausible explanation in 

680
00:35:52,300 --> 00:35:55,000
the idea that some of the iron 
Fleet defected back to your on 

681
00:35:55,300 --> 00:35:58,600
the dangers in these parts are 
legion even for a large group of

682
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,300
warrior Sailors, like the 
ironborn what I'm saying is 

683
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:03,900
maybe those Provisions. 
Weren't so easy to come by after

684
00:36:03,900 --> 00:36:05,300
all. 
Despite what Vic says, maybe 

685
00:36:05,300 --> 00:36:06,700
they were struck by some awful 
disease. 

686
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:08,800
Has maybe they went ashore on 
the mainland. 

687
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,700
Despite Victorian thoughts on 
how everyone knew better. 

688
00:36:11,700 --> 00:36:13,900
Not to maybe not everyone after 
all. 

689
00:36:14,500 --> 00:36:17,800
Could they have been lured by 
those Tales of riches and limbs 

690
00:36:18,300 --> 00:36:21,700
red Ralph seemed very loyal to 
Victorian but again he didn't 

691
00:36:21,700 --> 00:36:24,500
show up. 
So if his ship sank or he was 

692
00:36:24,500 --> 00:36:28,200
otherwise killed and his 
Squadron of 30 to 40 ships new 

693
00:36:28,700 --> 00:36:32,800
well someone had to take over 
for red Ralph and that someone 

694
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,900
may have wanted to cash in on 
them on the Temptations along 

695
00:36:35,900 --> 00:36:37,100
this assigned. 
Out. 

696
00:36:38,700 --> 00:36:41,900
Once they start doing that, any 
number of things that could go 

697
00:36:41,900 --> 00:36:44,500
wrong for them, such as being 
attacked, by brindled men, who 

698
00:36:44,500 --> 00:36:48,600
will talk about soon or whether 
them or corsairs or someone or 

699
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,300
something else. 
The point is that the Basilisk 

700
00:36:51,300 --> 00:36:53,900
Isles are dangerous, even for 
the ironborn, even for the 

701
00:36:53,900 --> 00:36:57,600
ironborn in force and the 
Victorian shows some knowledge 

702
00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:59,100
of the place. 
We have to remember something 

703
00:36:59,100 --> 00:37:02,800
that he doesn't know in the far.
North of Westeros magic has 

704
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:07,200
awoken in the Far East in qarth.
We saw the same through Danny's 

705
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:10,100
point of view. 
Magic Awakening people talking 

706
00:37:10,100 --> 00:37:14,000
about magic Awakening we did an 
episode on the comet many years 

707
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:17,000
ago and it is credited by 
several characters in world as 

708
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:20,000
the reason for the rise of magic
or at least the herald of such. 

709
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:23,300
Whether that's true, doesn't 
really matter for purposes of 

710
00:37:23,300 --> 00:37:25,300
this episode. 
The point is Magic has awoken 

711
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,200
everywhere as far as we can 
tell. 

712
00:37:27,900 --> 00:37:30,300
Should we not assume the 
supplies us with Oreos as well? 

713
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:34,200
Yes, I think definitely since 
we've seen this magical Rising 

714
00:37:34,300 --> 00:37:37,300
everywhere else, I feel safe in 
this assumption that it's also 

715
00:37:37,300 --> 00:37:40,800
happening there. 
Places we've seen, it's probably

716
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:44,100
happening in places, we have not
seen right tongue colos. 

717
00:37:44,100 --> 00:37:46,400
Is there a Krakens in the 
Basilisk Isles and perhaps the 

718
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:48,200
rise of magic increases their 
activity? 

719
00:37:48,900 --> 00:37:52,000
I would guess it might Krakens 
are real though so they don't 

720
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,300
they're not a fantasy creature. 
Well the ones this big I suppose

721
00:37:54,300 --> 00:37:57,400
kind of are either way though 
you're on my seek to take 

722
00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:00,000
advantage of this himself, 
right? 

723
00:38:00,300 --> 00:38:04,000
And all this must have been the 
norm in the Americas time as 

724
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,300
well. 
What I mean, is that magic was a

725
00:38:06,300 --> 00:38:08,300
part of the world is a safe 
assumption. 

726
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,400
Back in her time. 
I mean we hear of water spouts 

727
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:16,400
and attack wing of 300 dragons. 
So I think we can assume magic 

728
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:18,100
was doing pretty well at that 
time. 

729
00:38:18,300 --> 00:38:22,600
So her Fleet losing a shipper, 
several to crack and attacks is 

730
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:24,400
certainly possible along the way
as well. 

731
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,600
Maybe it's even likely given so 
much travel time and so many 

732
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,400
ships. 
Indeed, for the rhoynar who 

733
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:34,000
escaped, the devastation of 
their Homeland, they had many 

734
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,200
more trials to face starting 
here in the Basilisk Isles, dark

735
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:40,300
gods. 
And the Those who worship them a

736
00:38:40,300 --> 00:38:43,300
bit like Victorian, but with a 
lot more people nymeria, 

737
00:38:43,300 --> 00:38:46,100
apparently had no choice but to 
stop at the Basilisk Isles for 

738
00:38:46,100 --> 00:38:49,900
food and water, also only to 
fall afoul of the course are 

739
00:38:49,900 --> 00:38:54,500
Kings of Exile, Talon and the 
howling Mountain, who put aside 

740
00:38:54,500 --> 00:38:57,800
their own quarrels long enough 
to descend upon the rhoynar with

741
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:03,000
fire and sword putting to score 
ships to the torch and carrying 

742
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:07,300
off hundreds into slavery. 
In the aftermath, the course 

743
00:39:07,300 --> 00:39:10,400
says offered to allow the 
rhoynar to settle upon the Isle 

744
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:15,300
of toads provided, they gave up 
their boats and sent each King 

745
00:39:15,300 --> 00:39:20,200
30 virgin girls and pretty boys,
each year as tribute nymeria 

746
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:25,100
refused and took a fleet to see.
Once again, hoping to find 

747
00:39:25,100 --> 00:39:29,300
Refuge amongst the steaming 
jungles of South Aureus this is 

748
00:39:29,300 --> 00:39:31,700
their first encounter since 
fleeing home that we know of 

749
00:39:31,900 --> 00:39:35,200
apart from storms and maybe 
Krakens first encounter with 

750
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:36,500
people. 
Apple is what I should say. 

751
00:39:36,700 --> 00:39:39,200
And it's a harbinger of things 
to come throughout their 

752
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:41,800
travails. 
The rhoynar are refugees again. 

753
00:39:41,900 --> 00:39:44,000
They've lost their institutions 
and organizations. 

754
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:45,600
It's easy to miss. 
Just what a mess. 

755
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,200
They'd likely have been fleeing 
in a hurry like they did 

756
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:49,500
families would have been split 
apart. 

757
00:39:49,500 --> 00:39:50,700
Strangers would have been forced
to live in. 

758
00:39:50,700 --> 00:39:53,100
Close quarters with each other 
on ships, that may have been a 

759
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:56,500
minor storm away from Sinking, 
by the way, in this context, 

760
00:39:56,500 --> 00:39:58,200
Corsair and pirate mean the same
thing. 

761
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,900
As for leadership, even, that 
would be uncertain. 

762
00:40:01,900 --> 00:40:04,500
Like the ironborn. 
I imagine many had my ship, my 

763
00:40:04,500 --> 00:40:07,700
rules attitude, Beyond some 
obvious exceptions, like nine, 

764
00:40:07,700 --> 00:40:10,800
Mary herself, people would 
simply assert themselves on 

765
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:14,800
their ships or in their groups 
of whoever was around them, and 

766
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:16,900
that could lead to some 
bickering, if not outright in 

767
00:40:16,900 --> 00:40:20,400
fighting, especially given all 
the tension and the fear and all

768
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,400
that. 
And all this is like Manna to a 

769
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,600
gang of pirates. 
So much weakness and chaos and 

770
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:30,100
infighting imagine nature shows 
where And observe packs of 

771
00:40:30,100 --> 00:40:33,800
wildebeest, the Lions will wait 
for a week and or small animal 

772
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:35,200
to be separated and grab it 
quickly. 

773
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:38,200
Before the herd can protect it 
because these herds defend the 

774
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:39,900
smaller ones usually right, 
that's how it works. 

775
00:40:40,500 --> 00:40:43,500
They position the biggest 
wildebeest on the outside. 

776
00:40:43,500 --> 00:40:46,300
It's literally a defensive 
formation, they know what 

777
00:40:46,300 --> 00:40:50,500
they're doing, it's a strategy 
or involves strategy, however, 

778
00:40:50,500 --> 00:40:52,900
these things work in nature, not
so sure. 

779
00:40:52,900 --> 00:40:55,000
And I'm Aries, people could 
handle defending themselves as a

780
00:40:55,008 --> 00:40:57,500
group like that, these aren't a 
seafaring people there. 

781
00:40:57,500 --> 00:41:01,200
River people, River people, In 
disarray fleeing from a total 

782
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:04,100
loss. 
Imagine that nature scenario how

783
00:41:04,100 --> 00:41:08,000
easy for the Lions when there's 
no pack, just a mess, just a 

784
00:41:08,008 --> 00:41:11,100
mass, no defensive formation, 
just a bunch of ships. 

785
00:41:11,500 --> 00:41:13,400
That's why the Pirates would be 
salivating. 

786
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,700
When all this came Sailing by, 
that's why they stopped fighting

787
00:41:15,700 --> 00:41:18,100
each other temporarily because 
all of a sudden there was loot 

788
00:41:18,100 --> 00:41:21,500
for everyone. 
I love the pirate History 

789
00:41:21,500 --> 00:41:23,800
Podcast. 
It explains very well, how a lot

790
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:27,000
of pirate activity in the 
Caribbean was rooted in 

791
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:30,000
religious disputes especially 
Protestant. 

792
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:33,900
But These Guys, these Pirates 
right here, they mix religion 

793
00:41:33,900 --> 00:41:36,100
into things and I'm much more 
different way. 

794
00:41:36,700 --> 00:41:40,600
Many of the course, says cling 
to the gruesome custom of force 

795
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:42,700
tuning. 
The whole than moths of their 

796
00:41:42,700 --> 00:41:47,800
ships with severed heads to 
strike fear into their foes, the

797
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:51,600
heads dangle from hempen rope 
until all the flesh has rotted 

798
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,200
off them whereupon. 
They are replaced with fresh 

799
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:57,400
ones rather than consign the 
skulls to the Sea. 

800
00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:01,700
However, the course, Says will 
deliver them to the skull aisle 

801
00:42:01,700 --> 00:42:05,900
as an offering to some dark? 
God, thus it is that great. 

802
00:42:05,900 --> 00:42:08,900
Piles of yellow. 
Skulls can be seen lining, the 

803
00:42:08,900 --> 00:42:15,000
shores of this small Windswept 
uninhabited, Rock The Weary 

804
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,700
Refugee rhoynar, might have 
indeed been scared of those 

805
00:42:17,700 --> 00:42:21,600
severed, heads all the skulls 
and stuff, but they just face 

806
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:24,500
the prospect of enslavement by 
valyria and their dragons. 

807
00:42:24,500 --> 00:42:28,200
So maybe the skulls were just 
been like a minor Terror by 

808
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:30,000
comparison. 
Especially given that 

809
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,900
enslavement in the minds of 
Illyria, may still have been and

810
00:42:32,900 --> 00:42:34,200
road. 
For many of the wrong are taken 

811
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:36,900
by the Pirates. 
Death might seem vastly 

812
00:42:36,900 --> 00:42:41,100
preferable to that. 
Again, the Freehold is where the

813
00:42:41,100 --> 00:42:43,000
Pirates sell a lot of their 
slaves. 

814
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,900
To, some may have been sold 
farther away though. 

815
00:42:46,100 --> 00:42:49,200
You never know, prices may have 
fallen given the huge influx of 

816
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,100
ruin our slaves. 
The whole collapse of 

817
00:42:51,100 --> 00:42:53,800
civilization map pleasant 
thoughts here. 

818
00:42:54,700 --> 00:42:57,300
On the plus side, it seems to 
ruin our must have been able to 

819
00:42:57,300 --> 00:42:59,900
fight back to some meaningful 
degree against these Pirates or 

820
00:42:59,900 --> 00:43:02,300
else they're probably wouldn't 
have been any sort of offer at 

821
00:43:02,300 --> 00:43:03,800
all. 
They probably would have kept 

822
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:05,300
attacking them and take them 
what they wanted. 

823
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,900
And if they were so weak, they 
wouldn't have been able to just 

824
00:43:08,900 --> 00:43:11,200
sail off and leave. 
They wouldn't have been able to 

825
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:14,400
escape the corsairs. 
So we're going to see Ryan, our 

826
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:18,400
numbers suffer greatly over the 
course of all these travels this

827
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:21,100
episode, but this is the 
beginning when they were at 

828
00:43:21,100 --> 00:43:23,000
their greatest numbers, we got 
to keep that in mind. 

829
00:43:23,700 --> 00:43:26,600
The idea that the course ours 
were a menace in nymeria. 

830
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:28,900
Today is kind of interesting. 
Something we need to look at 

831
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:32,300
given that valyria was the 
dominant power in the area and 

832
00:43:32,300 --> 00:43:34,600
one might suppose they take 
steps to prevent that. 

833
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:35,900
Right? 
And like what is why? 

834
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:38,300
Valerio want there to be lots of
piracy out there. 

835
00:43:38,500 --> 00:43:40,700
They want trade to work, they 
want trade to function, they 

836
00:43:40,700 --> 00:43:43,200
don't want that in current 
times. 

837
00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:46,200
In fact, the volunteers do that.
They Patrol this area, so it 

838
00:43:46,207 --> 00:43:47,700
makes sense that the valyrians 
would have done. 

839
00:43:47,700 --> 00:43:50,900
So, before the Doom, now, 
violence has taken over a lot of

840
00:43:50,900 --> 00:43:53,400
that. 
But even the valyrians would 

841
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,500
have had trouble. 
Keeping this area safe given its

842
00:43:55,500 --> 00:43:58,900
nature, and given the nature of 
this place. 

843
00:43:59,900 --> 00:44:02,600
And we're not told of valyria, 
as having been a strong sea 

844
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:04,200
power. 
I mean, they were powerful in 

845
00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:07,200
their own way because they could
afford it and had dragons, 

846
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:08,500
right? 
That's why they didn't 

847
00:44:08,500 --> 00:44:11,200
necessarily have a ton of ships 
because who's going to send a 

848
00:44:11,207 --> 00:44:14,200
Navy against the team that has 
all those dragons. 

849
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,900
That's just suicide. 
So while we can't assume that a 

850
00:44:16,908 --> 00:44:19,300
small Navy it wouldn't be 
surprising if they did because 

851
00:44:19,300 --> 00:44:23,400
they didn't necessarily need to 
worry about being attacked by I 

852
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:25,900
think they'd have quite a lot of
trade ships though and with that

853
00:44:25,900 --> 00:44:29,600
comes a greater risk of piracy 
especially slave ships, but 

854
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:32,200
dragons are not well suited for 
stopping pirate attacks, right? 

855
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,800
That's dragons are much better 
on the attack than they are on 

856
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:37,700
defense. 
When you don't know where the 

857
00:44:37,700 --> 00:44:41,000
attack is going to come from. 
A dragon is only of moderate use

858
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:45,100
and many dragonlords. 
Lets, you know, think about who 

859
00:44:45,100 --> 00:44:46,600
they were. 
These were like the upper upper 

860
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,000
Upper Crust of a really wealthy 
powerful Society. 

861
00:44:49,500 --> 00:44:52,400
I think they would think Chasing
Pirates would be kind of Of 

862
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:55,000
beneath them. 
I mean a dragon would be really 

863
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:58,000
good at destroying a pirate base
as such, you know, if they knew 

864
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:01,200
where it was, but the problem is
that even when you find it, they

865
00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:04,500
just go make another one. 
As this quote tells us push 

866
00:45:04,500 --> 00:45:08,600
plunder the most famous of them 
is celebrated in many as song 

867
00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:12,700
and story, yet cannot be found 
on any map for the good and 

868
00:45:12,700 --> 00:45:16,500
sufficient reason that there 
have been at least a dozen port 

869
00:45:16,500 --> 00:45:20,900
plunders on as many islands 
whenever one is destroyed. 

870
00:45:20,900 --> 00:45:24,900
Another is founded. 
It only to be abandoned in turn,

871
00:45:25,100 --> 00:45:27,900
whatever the reasons whether my 
guess is our clothes, or write 

872
00:45:27,900 --> 00:45:30,800
on, or in the neighborhood. 
Of course there's definitely 

873
00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:34,400
been a problem on and off for 
many eons and whenever something

874
00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:37,300
man-made or disease related 
comes and kills off large 

875
00:45:37,300 --> 00:45:40,100
numbers of the Pirates. 
As it did many times over the 

876
00:45:40,100 --> 00:45:43,100
eons, but we're told every time 
that happened, new Pirates would

877
00:45:43,100 --> 00:45:45,400
just come in to replace them. 
It might take years for that 

878
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:47,600
parent population to rebuild, 
but it would always happen. 

879
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:51,700
In any case, I doubt the Isle of
toes, nor any of the Basilisk 

880
00:45:51,700 --> 00:45:54,500
Isles, were seriously considered
as a new potential home by 

881
00:45:54,500 --> 00:45:56,600
nymeria, but let's take a quick 
look at the place. 

882
00:45:56,600 --> 00:46:00,800
The corsairs offered to let them
live and why it was not an 

883
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:06,000
option, the toad Stone on the 
Isle of toads can be found an 

884
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:10,500
ancient Idol, a greasy, black 
stone crudely carved into the 

885
00:46:10,500 --> 00:46:15,900
semblance of a gigantic toad of 
malignant aspect, some forty 

886
00:46:15,900 --> 00:46:19,900
feet high, the idea of living 
with That I'm giving up some of 

887
00:46:19,900 --> 00:46:23,800
their own as slaves yearly. 
This offer was, of course, 

888
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:28,000
awful, it was off, roll yet, the
famous toad Stone made of the 

889
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:31,200
famous greasy black stone, which
we discussed quite a bit in our 

890
00:46:31,207 --> 00:46:35,000
episodes on a shy in the great 
Empire of the Dawn, It's a great

891
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:37,500
example because it's certainly a
representation of a dark, God. 

892
00:46:37,500 --> 00:46:41,200
But the only we get an image or 
likeness of the rest are just 

893
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:44,300
left to be mysterious. 
This is a reference to the God's

894
00:46:44,300 --> 00:46:46,000
a fog. 
You are created by a Clark 

895
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:50,000
Ashton Smith for HP lovecraft's.
Cthulhu Mythos Lovecraft 

896
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:53,500
himself, used his being, which 
is indeed toad-like in the 

897
00:46:53,500 --> 00:46:57,600
Whisperer in darkness as one of 
the old ones, capital letters, 

898
00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:01,600
old ones, Robert E, Howard whose
influence on the World. 

899
00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:03,300
Building in this episode is 
pretty significant. 

900
00:47:03,300 --> 00:47:06,700
I'd think also Uses a toad like 
deity and his story, the black 

901
00:47:06,700 --> 00:47:10,300
stone, which is also a story. 
George r.r., Martin gives a nod 

902
00:47:10,300 --> 00:47:13,500
to in constructing the high 
tower which has Blackstone on 

903
00:47:13,500 --> 00:47:16,300
its foundation. 
In this case, the Robert E, 

904
00:47:16,300 --> 00:47:18,600
Howard story. 
There's this toad sitting on top

905
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:20,600
of an altar, not unlike the 
statue. 

906
00:47:21,100 --> 00:47:24,200
Now, of course nymeria, didn't 
know any of those writers but a 

907
00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:27,300
40-foot, greasy, black stone, 
toad Idol is a pretty easy. 

908
00:47:27,300 --> 00:47:31,000
Nope, even without the 
backstory, and there are the 

909
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:34,200
natives who apparently the 
rhoynar would have had to share.

910
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:37,200
The aisle with. 
Yeah, this is the one place we 

911
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:40,500
hear about Native still existing
in the basilisks and they're 

912
00:47:40,500 --> 00:47:43,600
yeah, they're creepy. 
The Rhine are played at dressing

913
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:47,000
up, like fish, a bit with their 
scale armor and use that turtle 

914
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:51,100
shell, Shield Etc. 
But, there are some people I use

915
00:47:51,100 --> 00:47:55,700
the term lightly who have that 
built in the people of this 

916
00:47:55,700 --> 00:47:57,600
aisle. 
I believed by some to be 

917
00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:00,800
descended from those who carved 
the toad stone for. 

918
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:05,400
There is an unpleasant fish like
aspect to their And many have 

919
00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:09,100
webbed hands and feet if so, 
they are the sole surviving 

920
00:48:09,100 --> 00:48:12,500
remnant of this forgotten race. 
This description is seen 

921
00:48:12,500 --> 00:48:15,000
elsewhere in Martin's World such
as among some of the sister men 

922
00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:18,200
like house ver el that we see 
through Davos was point of view 

923
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:23,400
and certain ironborn Bloodlines 
like the aptly-named house, Cod 

924
00:48:23,700 --> 00:48:25,900
puns. 
This is also h p Lovecraft 

925
00:48:25,900 --> 00:48:29,700
influence particularly the tail,
the shadow over innsmouth. 

926
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:32,800
So maybe these should be the 
Lovecraft files instead of the 

927
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:34,700
Basilisk Isles, where the 
Cthulhu I Aisles. 

928
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:37,100
The cod's would hear the call 
and come live there. 

929
00:48:37,300 --> 00:48:41,200
Cod of Cthulhu Daenerys to will 
have the ironborn among her 

930
00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:42,700
people. 
It seems surely, she won't take 

931
00:48:42,700 --> 00:48:44,800
their ships and kill all the 
sailors. 

932
00:48:45,100 --> 00:48:47,500
Might be a few members of house 
caught in her Navy in due course

933
00:48:47,500 --> 00:48:51,500
to And Daenerys. 
Khaleesi is no stranger to idols

934
00:48:51,500 --> 00:48:53,700
and bizarre God's Ritenour 
depictions of the twisted. 

935
00:48:53,700 --> 00:48:56,800
Creations made by those gods. 
And by men with the darkest of 

936
00:48:56,800 --> 00:49:01,400
purposes in Vegas, Dothraki, saw
them all salad or Sons ancestor.

937
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:04,900
Sasso son was once sent to join 
a free City's. 

938
00:49:04,900 --> 00:49:08,100
Fleet to clear pirates from the 
Basilisk Isles. 

939
00:49:08,500 --> 00:49:12,900
But instead he made himself king
of Basilisk Isles and he ruled 

940
00:49:12,900 --> 00:49:16,600
for 30 years, he's the only 
person we know of to do that 

941
00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:18,800
salad or names one of his own 
show. 

942
00:49:18,900 --> 00:49:22,300
Up, Seth is on, but it sinks off
the Gray Cliffs. 

943
00:49:22,300 --> 00:49:26,100
When sailing from 
eastwatch-by-the-sea, the worst 

944
00:49:26,100 --> 00:49:28,900
of men, doesn't it? 
Just figure that the continent 

945
00:49:28,900 --> 00:49:32,700
with the greatest of natural 
Horrors is also where Humanity 

946
00:49:32,700 --> 00:49:35,000
does. 
It's worse, Deeds, we've listed 

947
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:39,900
a whole lot of both from deadly 
creatures, deadly diseases to 

948
00:49:39,900 --> 00:49:42,700
deadly. 
Everything deadly weather, even 

949
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:45,600
piracy and murder are nothing 
compared to this. 

950
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:49,600
Meaning we Vern's and basilisks 
and even Well, most of the 

951
00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:53,100
diseases are preferable Fates to
that thousands of years ago. 

952
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:56,600
Nearly five from A Song of Ice 
and Fire and about, for from the

953
00:49:56,600 --> 00:49:59,700
time of the 10,000 ships, the 
ghiscari, founded a city on the 

954
00:49:59,700 --> 00:50:02,700
Isle of Tears, which is the 
largest of the Basilisk Isles. 

955
00:50:02,900 --> 00:50:06,000
The city was called Gore guy. 
Now given that the ghiscari were

956
00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:08,600
interested in slavery, mostly it
seems likely. 

957
00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:11,300
That was what they had in mind 
by building this city here. 

958
00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:13,600
But given the Exotic things 
found in the area. 

959
00:50:14,300 --> 00:50:17,500
It's probably other uses for it 
as well, trade, of course, even 

960
00:50:17,500 --> 00:50:19,600
if the slave trade dominated 
there, The other things to trade

961
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:22,100
as well. 
Now this may be how the world 

962
00:50:22,100 --> 00:50:25,200
eventually learned that the 
natives of thory, I make poor 

963
00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:28,100
slaves and I'll tell you that, 
the natives Authority, I make 

964
00:50:28,100 --> 00:50:31,400
more slaves, according to the 
ghiscari, who knows such things.

965
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:33,700
The valyrians agree with them 
who also know such things. 

966
00:50:34,100 --> 00:50:37,600
But as the fighting pits, remind
us, those who see human and 

967
00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:41,700
human like races. 
As Goods as chattel know, there 

968
00:50:41,700 --> 00:50:44,800
are other options besides 
straight slavery when it comes 

969
00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:46,800
to captives. 
If you can't tame them it's 

970
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:48,700
usually because they're too wild
which in turn makes them. 

971
00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:52,300
candidates for the arena where 
wild Savage violence earns large

972
00:50:52,300 --> 00:50:56,600
profits through eager crowds, 
We're told that after perhaps 

973
00:50:56,600 --> 00:51:00,100
two or four hundred years the 
valyrians conquered Gore guy and

974
00:51:00,100 --> 00:51:02,900
renamed it. 
The gaseous they of course were 

975
00:51:02,900 --> 00:51:05,500
highly interested in slavery as 
well, but it said they used it 

976
00:51:05,500 --> 00:51:09,800
as a penal colony instead gothos
would be in Valerian hands for 

977
00:51:10,100 --> 00:51:14,200
maybe as long as three thousand 
years I would guess. 

978
00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:17,700
Given the nature of valyria 
society that a lot of criminals 

979
00:51:17,700 --> 00:51:20,600
would be enslaved. 
But the valyrians like the 

980
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:24,500
concept of other options for 
captives besides slavery to a 

981
00:51:24,500 --> 00:51:26,800
whole new New and horrific 
level. 

982
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:29,100
Not that the ghiscari wouldn't 
have been willing to take this 

983
00:51:29,100 --> 00:51:30,900
step. 
It's just they couldn't because 

984
00:51:30,900 --> 00:51:35,100
this new level the valyrians 
took things too is blood-magic. 

985
00:51:35,100 --> 00:51:38,900
Which the ghiscari didn't have. 
Roy are may not have been well, 

986
00:51:38,900 --> 00:51:40,900
aware of this city or I'm not so
sure. 

987
00:51:40,900 --> 00:51:42,700
They'd have moved so close to 
it. 

988
00:51:42,900 --> 00:51:45,600
It would be too easy for Larry 
to find them again, right. 

989
00:51:45,700 --> 00:51:48,300
But perhaps the city was smaller
than, or more remote than the 

990
00:51:48,308 --> 00:51:52,000
distance would make it seem. 
It's not clear, still having 

991
00:51:52,100 --> 00:51:55,300
something called flesh pits. 
Next door, you're gonna have a 

992
00:51:55,300 --> 00:51:58,500
bad time and it's worse. 
When you learn what it really 

993
00:51:58,500 --> 00:52:00,800
means. 
It appears to mean a place where

994
00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:05,200
new species were created, where 
mismatched species were forcibly

995
00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:09,400
bread and Magic was used. 
Used some, how to facilitate all

996
00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:12,500
that and to make it a lot more 
scary when we talk about it. 

997
00:52:13,100 --> 00:52:15,700
So not only does the third is 
offer the worst of the natural 

998
00:52:15,700 --> 00:52:18,000
world on planetoids. 
It manages to offer The Works of

999
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:20,400
humanity in the unnatural World 
via magic. 

1000
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:23,000
This is something I consider a 
much larger topic. 

1001
00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:25,900
And thus I've moved most of my 
notes and thoughts to another 

1002
00:52:25,900 --> 00:52:27,800
episode script, which will 
release as a bonus episode 

1003
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,700
sometime and that episode. 
We'll discuss what we know about

1004
00:52:30,700 --> 00:52:33,000
the glasses is flesh pits. 
The blood magic used to create 

1005
00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:35,900
these engineered sphinxes and 
what we know might have been 

1006
00:52:35,900 --> 00:52:37,800
done to them or at least guess 
What might have been done to 

1007
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:41,200
them and where they are now, 
sphinxes dragons, even lizard 

1008
00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:45,000
Lions, we have ideas with Clues,
not only from A Song of Ice and 

1009
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:48,000
Fire, but tidbits, I picked up 
from his tough voyaging, short 

1010
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,300
stories and other places. 
So, keep your eyes peeled for 

1011
00:52:50,300 --> 00:52:53,700
the announcement on that one. 
It's too long for this episode 

1012
00:52:53,700 --> 00:52:56,200
and the rhoynar don't interact 
with it directly enough for it 

1013
00:52:56,200 --> 00:53:00,400
to fit here, but it's cool. 
So I'll be keeping you all up to

1014
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:05,300
date on the progress with that. 
For now, let's take our mid-roll

1015
00:53:05,300 --> 00:53:08,700

The last Hunt is ceaseless and 
Lady. 

1042
00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:20,000
Bobby of house Mitchell. 
Trusteth Arias men have known of

1043
00:54:20,008 --> 00:54:24,000
the existence of the vast Savage
land to the South since the 

1044
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:27,300
first of them took to the sea in
ships, for only the width of the

1045
00:54:27,300 --> 00:54:30,300
summer, sea separates Authority 
has from the ancient 

1046
00:54:30,300 --> 00:54:33,800
civilizations and great cities 
of esselstyn Westeros. 

1047
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:37,200
The ghiscari established 
outposts on its northern Shore. 

1048
00:54:37,300 --> 00:54:39,300
Hours. 
And the days of the old Empire, 

1049
00:54:39,300 --> 00:54:42,400
they raised the walled cities 
are matar at the mouth of the 

1050
00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:46,300
rivers of moya's and built the 
Grim penal colony garage and 

1051
00:54:46,300 --> 00:54:49,300
Ivan Point. 
Caffeine adventurers, hungry for

1052
00:54:49,300 --> 00:54:52,800
profit sort Gold Gems. 
And ivory along the eastern 

1053
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:56,100
coast of South Aureus summer, 
Islanders did the same in the 

1054
00:54:56,100 --> 00:55:00,200
west, the Freehold of Illyria 
Thrice established colonies on 

1055
00:55:00,200 --> 00:55:03,500
basilisk point. 
The first was destroyed by the 

1056
00:55:03,500 --> 00:55:07,800
brindled men, the second lost to
plague and the third It was 

1057
00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:11,200
abandoned when the dragonlords 
captured Summit are in the 

1058
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:13,500
fourth. 
Ghiscari War yet. 

1059
00:55:13,500 --> 00:55:15,700
We cannot claim to know Seth 
Aureus. 

1060
00:55:15,700 --> 00:55:19,700
Well, its interior remains a 
mystery to us covered by 

1061
00:55:19,700 --> 00:55:22,700
impenetrable jungle. 
Where ancient City's full of 

1062
00:55:22,700 --> 00:55:27,100
ghosts, lie in Ruins beside, 
great sluggish Rivers. 

1063
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:30,600
So a brief recap after Gareth 
death. 

1064
00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:32,600
And I marry leads a ragged band 
of refugees. 

1065
00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:35,200
All the while being kind of 
stubborn about the fact that she

1066
00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:38,100
herself is a refugee to which 
serves our people Well, but it's

1067
00:55:38,100 --> 00:55:40,300
a tough spot. 
She leaves certain death behind 

1068
00:55:40,300 --> 00:55:42,500
for the unknown. 
The sea is vast and stormy and 

1069
00:55:42,500 --> 00:55:45,900
many are lost on the way to 
well, the unknown, you know what

1070
00:55:45,900 --> 00:55:47,700
they say. 
One rhoynar is vast sea. 

1071
00:55:47,700 --> 00:55:50,200
Is another callous ours crecy. 
Okay? 

1072
00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:52,900
Now they meaning me, I'm the 
only one who says that, I'll 

1073
00:55:52,900 --> 00:55:55,600
probably never see it again. 
So compare that to just after 

1074
00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:58,700
Drogo is death, Danny gathers. 
Her ragged band a lot more 

1075
00:55:58,700 --> 00:56:01,000
ragged than nymeria is, but the 
idea is the same. 

1076
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:03,400
Her cows are is mostly made up 
of a people who aren't exactly 

1077
00:56:03,400 --> 00:56:05,000
known for their worldliness. 
Either. 

1078
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:07,200
Right people who mostly stay in 
their native environment. 

1079
00:56:07,300 --> 00:56:09,300
Moment and immediately, she has 
to the red. 

1080
00:56:09,300 --> 00:56:11,400
Waste a desert. 
So, vast and harsh. 

1081
00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:15,000
That many didn't survive the 
journey instead of dying at sea 

1082
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:16,500
dying. 
I'm a desert. 

1083
00:56:16,500 --> 00:56:19,800
Now, you can starve to death and
run out of fresh water on the 

1084
00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:21,200
Open Sea, just like a can in the
desert. 

1085
00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:23,400
It's more similar than you might
think. 

1086
00:56:24,700 --> 00:56:26,400
She had no Maps. 
Danny. 

1087
00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:28,600
That is just Jour. 
Has notion that there were 

1088
00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:32,300
cities somewhere to the east. 
Yeah, isn't that kind of funny 

1089
00:56:32,500 --> 00:56:35,200
the trip planner for this whole 
scenario is the night from bear 

1090
00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:37,500
Island. 
This is the guy that they're 

1091
00:56:37,500 --> 00:56:39,800
listening to for where to go and
SS, right? 

1092
00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:42,200
The right are probably had some 
maps. 

1093
00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:44,800
They did a lot of trading in, 
all right, that that had to come

1094
00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:46,900
up some point and they had 
plenty of wealth. 

1095
00:56:47,300 --> 00:56:49,800
So, picking a spot where there 
wasn't a lot of people made a 

1096
00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:52,800
lot of sense, especially if they
didn't know better because of 

1097
00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:56,200
their inward facing Enos because
the map is not the land, right? 

1098
00:56:56,200 --> 00:56:57,700
We've heard that phrase in Song 
of Ice and Fire. 

1099
00:56:57,700 --> 00:57:01,900
It doesn't tell you about the 
people or things or diseases, or

1100
00:57:01,900 --> 00:57:04,700
stories. 
It only gives you the terrain 

1101
00:57:05,300 --> 00:57:07,700
and even the maps were probably 
wrong at this point. 

1102
00:57:07,700 --> 00:57:09,700
The world of Ice and Fire tells 
us that the ghiscari, the 

1103
00:57:09,700 --> 00:57:11,200
valyrians, the car theme the 
summer. 

1104
00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:14,500
Islanders all had different 
Notions of how large the place 

1105
00:57:14,500 --> 00:57:18,300
is, or was, although they do all
agree, it's huge. 

1106
00:57:18,500 --> 00:57:21,700
That's about it. 
Neither Danny's callous R9 

1107
00:57:21,700 --> 00:57:23,400
mirrors. 
Rhoynar really knew what they 

1108
00:57:23,408 --> 00:57:26,300
were getting NG into, but they 
figured that surely the unknown 

1109
00:57:26,300 --> 00:57:30,000
had to be better than the known.
Not so fast. 

1110
00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:32,600
It's the third house would make 
many rethink that certainty 

1111
00:57:33,100 --> 00:57:35,800
since the rhoynar will interact 
with many locations around with 

1112
00:57:35,800 --> 00:57:37,700
Oreos. 
Let's talk about some of the 

1113
00:57:37,700 --> 00:57:41,900
recurring features of the realm 
starting with the locals. 

1114
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:45,500
It's fairly well known that. 
Braavos was founded by a group 

1115
00:57:45,500 --> 00:57:48,900
of fugitive slaves taken by the 
Freehold of valyria. 

1116
00:57:49,500 --> 00:57:53,400
Not so, well, known is that, 
this Convoy of slave ships was 

1117
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:56,600
already supposed to found a 
colony but instead of in 

1118
00:57:56,600 --> 00:57:59,900
braavos, it was intended. 
Did Forsyth Oreos. 

1119
00:58:00,300 --> 00:58:02,500
Maybe the thought of having to 
live down. 

1120
00:58:02,500 --> 00:58:06,400
There was the extra motivation 
that they needed to Rebel The 

1121
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:10,900
Old Man and the wyvern, huge 
crocodiles, lurk beneath the 

1122
00:58:10,900 --> 00:58:14,400
surface of those amyas and have 
been known to overturn, boats 

1123
00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:16,900
swimming up from below. 
So they might devour their 

1124
00:58:16,900 --> 00:58:19,100
occupants as they struggle in 
the water. 

1125
00:58:19,300 --> 00:58:22,900
Other streams are infested by 
swarms of carnivorous fish 

1126
00:58:22,900 --> 00:58:26,400
capable of stripping, the flesh 
from a Man's Bones in minutes. 

1127
00:58:26,500 --> 00:58:31,200
There are stinging flies Venom 
Snakes wasps and worms that lay 

1128
00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:35,400
their eggs beneath the Skin's of
horses Hogs and Men alike. 

1129
00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:38,800
There's a moyles that's the 
primary River in South or eosin 

1130
00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:41,300
think of that in comparison to 
what we quoted about. 

1131
00:58:41,300 --> 00:58:44,300
Mother rhoyne last episode. 
Sure there were a few dangers, 

1132
00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:46,200
some of the turtles, they could 
get real nasty. 

1133
00:58:46,300 --> 00:58:48,700
But compared to this see what a 
difference. 

1134
00:58:48,700 --> 00:58:52,600
Not close perspective comes up 
big again here as it's going to 

1135
00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:54,900
a lot. 
The pain of flight here would be

1136
00:58:54,900 --> 00:58:56,700
traumatic. 
Then you have the trauma of 

1137
00:58:56,700 --> 00:59:00,000
replacing it day to day with. 
This and of course, there are 

1138
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:01,800
worse things. 
Of course, there are. 

1139
00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:04,700
This is George r.r. 
Martin, not only is there, the 

1140
00:59:04,700 --> 00:59:07,800
Basilisk Isles, which don't 
really have basilisks anymore. 

1141
00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:11,400
But there's basileus point which
does a basilisk and Martin's 

1142
00:59:11,400 --> 00:59:13,400
world is an ugly beers 
terrifying. 

1143
00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:17,400
Reptilian-type creature that 
ranges in size from a small dog,

1144
00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:21,400
to twice the size of a lion and 
their venomous. 

1145
00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:25,400
What? 
On top of that, the substance 

1146
00:59:25,400 --> 00:59:29,400
jaqen h'ghar uses to get 
wheezes, dog, to attack Wiese. 

1147
00:59:29,700 --> 00:59:33,200
Turning on his own master and 
killing him, basilisk blood. 

1148
00:59:33,500 --> 00:59:36,100
You can see why these were 
mostly or entirely wiped off the

1149
00:59:36,107 --> 00:59:37,700
islands. 
Everything about them is 

1150
00:59:37,700 --> 00:59:41,600
dangerous to humans, but such as
Impossible on the mainland, or 

1151
00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:43,000
even in the region of bastos 
Point. 

1152
00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:46,000
Apparently this jungles, how are
you going to wipe out a species 

1153
00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:49,000
that lives deep in the jungles 
like this, it's just not 

1154
00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:52,100
feasible. 
The real world, there are still 

1155
00:59:52,100 --> 00:59:54,800
tribes deep in the Amazon 
rainforest, who have never had 

1156
00:59:54,800 --> 00:59:57,600
contact with the outside world. 
Let that sink in. 

1157
00:59:57,600 --> 00:59:59,900
When you think about sutorius, 
it seems a lot more realistic in

1158
00:59:59,900 --> 01:00:01,400
that mine. 
That's what that says, is how 

1159
01:00:01,500 --> 01:00:03,800
jungles are. 
It's just crazy what you can 

1160
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:06,100
hide inside a jungle and George 
knows this. 

1161
01:00:06,300 --> 01:00:09,000
He likes to take the craziest 
real-world stuff and give it 

1162
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:12,300
fantasy. 
Amplification of amplification 

1163
01:00:12,700 --> 01:00:14,500
instead of tribes. 
In this case or rather, in 

1164
01:00:14,500 --> 01:00:17,800
addition to tribes, there are 
surely countless other species 

1165
01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:21,300
and creatures unnamed and 
undocumented deep With Oreos. 

1166
01:00:22,500 --> 01:00:25,500
But in particular, we should 
talk about the wyverns which in 

1167
01:00:25,500 --> 01:00:28,300
Martin's world are essentially 
dragons but hungrier and often 

1168
01:00:28,300 --> 01:00:31,700
meaner, but smaller and without 
fire-breathing, we first see 

1169
01:00:31,700 --> 01:00:36,100
them sculpted on Dragonstone but
that's real ones, they come in a

1170
01:00:36,100 --> 01:00:38,800
wide variety of colors and 
sizes, each cooler than the 

1171
01:00:38,800 --> 01:00:41,300
rest. 
Well, not from the rhoynar 

1172
01:00:41,300 --> 01:00:44,500
perspective more like each is 
more terrifying than the rest of

1173
01:00:44,500 --> 01:00:47,000
them. 
Think about that for a minute 

1174
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:49,000
there on our can handle 
valyrians soldiers and 

1175
01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:52,300
Sorcerers, they were able to win
the wars against them. 

1176
01:00:52,700 --> 01:00:56,400
It was the dragons that came in 
and made the difference and turn

1177
01:00:56,400 --> 01:00:58,300
the tides and cause them to 
lose. 

1178
01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:00,400
And here they are. 
Moving to a place that had 

1179
01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:03,800
creatures awfully similar, 
that's not going to make for 

1180
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:06,800
peaceful sleep at night. 
Maybe they were hoping that 

1181
01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:09,600
whoever earns didn't like large 
groups of people or that they 

1182
01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:13,500
lived further Inland, but I 
think of Isaiah, the young girl 

1183
01:01:13,500 --> 01:01:17,400
killed by drogue on who the guy.
Sorry have taken to calling the 

1184
01:01:17,400 --> 01:01:21,100
winged Shadow and notice that 
one of the nastier wyverns is 

1185
01:01:21,100 --> 01:01:23,700
black and nicknamed, The Shadow 
wings. 

1186
01:01:23,700 --> 01:01:28,200
So, Well, those are the scariest
apparently, but not the most 

1187
01:01:28,200 --> 01:01:30,700
dangerous. 
Some wyverns are brindled, some 

1188
01:01:30,700 --> 01:01:34,600
like swamps some like, Jungles 
the shadow wings, like hunting 

1189
01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:37,900
at night, and some, like hunting
in packs, and those are the most

1190
01:01:37,900 --> 01:01:40,400
dangerous. 
Yeah, things that hunt in packs 

1191
01:01:40,700 --> 01:01:43,200
are almost always up there among
the nastiest creatures. 

1192
01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:47,300
There are and well, we got more 
of that gir mork's? 

1193
01:01:47,700 --> 01:01:52,000
No, not germ Orcs as in plague, 
Orcs or bacteria Orcs, but the 

1194
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:54,600
Orcs of George r.r. 
Martin, you didn't miss the term

1195
01:01:54,600 --> 01:01:56,900
appearing, he didn't. 
Never use the word orc. 

1196
01:01:56,900 --> 01:01:59,600
The term isn't doesn't appear in
A Song of Ice and Fire or the 

1197
01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:01,700
world of Ice and Fire. 
Instead he just gives it a 

1198
01:02:01,700 --> 01:02:05,100
different name. 
Brindled men, the Safari, a 

1199
01:02:05,100 --> 01:02:09,100
big-boned creatures, massively 
muscled with long arms. 

1200
01:02:09,100 --> 01:02:13,400
Sloped foreheads, huge squarish 
teeth, heavy jaws and coarse 

1201
01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:16,500
black hair. 
Their broad flat noses, suggest 

1202
01:02:16,500 --> 01:02:20,100
snouts and the thick Skins are 
brindled and patterns of brown 

1203
01:02:20,100 --> 01:02:23,700
and white that seem more hog 
like than human Safari. 

1204
01:02:23,700 --> 01:02:27,700
Women cannot breed with any say.
Their own males when mated with 

1205
01:02:27,700 --> 01:02:30,600
men from are Source or Westeros.
They bring forth only 

1206
01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:34,700
stillbirths, many hideously, 
malformed there, we have snouts 

1207
01:02:34,700 --> 01:02:37,700
and the word hog like with a lot
of other fairly typical orc 

1208
01:02:37,700 --> 01:02:39,300
features. 
The only the time, the word 

1209
01:02:39,300 --> 01:02:41,100
brindled appears in A Song of 
Ice and Fire. 

1210
01:02:41,100 --> 01:02:44,600
Besides, with the wyverns is 
house, cray calls sigil, which 

1211
01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:47,100
just so happens to be a brindled
bore. 

1212
01:02:47,900 --> 01:02:50,700
Despite the Rhine ours lack of 
experience abroad in The Wider 

1213
01:02:50,700 --> 01:02:52,500
World. 
They learn a few things from the

1214
01:02:52,500 --> 01:02:54,500
wider world coming to them, 
right? 

1215
01:02:54,500 --> 01:02:56,900
It's the biggest river in the 
World full of trading 

1216
01:02:56,900 --> 01:02:59,000
opportunity. 
It's hospitable and it's a nice 

1217
01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:01,600
place to be. 
So as we know the runner Traders

1218
01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:03,100
and Craftsmen would be a draw as
well. 

1219
01:03:03,100 --> 01:03:04,900
Lots of reasons to go there and 
trade. 

1220
01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:08,100
So through trade, they have met 
most of these peoples of the 

1221
01:03:08,100 --> 01:03:11,500
world, but not all the people, 
the world travel. 

1222
01:03:11,500 --> 01:03:13,600
So, they wouldn't have met those
and the natives thory. 

1223
01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:16,900
I are a good example of that. 
They don't travel. 

1224
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:20,300
They only show a few signs of 
rudimentary civilization, they 

1225
01:03:20,300 --> 01:03:23,900
don't build much, or at all. 
And most relevantly. 

1226
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:27,100
How much contact the rowing? 
With them prior to the Exodus. 

1227
01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:31,400
Well, since they don't go to see
probably very little or none, 

1228
01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:35,900
but incursions adventurers and 
colonists of ghiscari, Valyrian 

1229
01:03:35,900 --> 01:03:39,200
qartheen and summer, Islander 
and other Origins seem to have 

1230
01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:42,800
created a small population of 
outwardly facing locals this 

1231
01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:45,100
Authority, that dwell closest to
the Sea. 

1232
01:03:45,100 --> 01:03:48,600
Have learned to speak the trade 
talk, the ghiscari consider them

1233
01:03:48,600 --> 01:03:52,200
to slow of which to make a good 
slaves, but they are Fierce 

1234
01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:55,800
Fighters, farther south, the 
trappings of civilization In 

1235
01:03:55,800 --> 01:03:58,900
Fall away and the brindled men 
become ever. 

1236
01:03:58,900 --> 01:04:03,100
More Savage and barbaric these 
Authority worship dark Gods with

1237
01:04:03,100 --> 01:04:08,200
obscene, writes, many are 
cannibals and more a ghouls when

1238
01:04:08,200 --> 01:04:11,800
they cannot Feast upon the Flesh
of foes and strangers. 

1239
01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:15,000
They eat their own dead. 
This quote seems to reflect 

1240
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:18,100
current times. 
Meaning A Song of Ice and Fire 

1241
01:04:18,100 --> 01:04:20,600
current and perhaps, there were 
huge differences compared to 

1242
01:04:20,600 --> 01:04:23,800
nymeria is day, but probably not
considering many of the races 

1243
01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:27,800
have been coming to South Oreos 
for Eons, I suppose the dark 

1244
01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:31,200
gods and obscure rights, or even
worse than those of the Basilisk

1245
01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:34,800
Isles. 
And well, if these gods are pro 

1246
01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:38,400
cannibalism in ghoul, ISM Glory,
I don't know. 

1247
01:04:38,600 --> 01:04:40,900
Well, whatever it's definitely 
not as bad as slavery, if we're 

1248
01:04:40,900 --> 01:04:44,100
getting technical, but it is way
creepier and makes collecting 

1249
01:04:44,100 --> 01:04:46,000
skulls look like collecting 
shells. 

1250
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:49,800
Cannibalism in the north seems 
largely to be a product of 

1251
01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:53,000
deprivation. 
A food source used as a last 

1252
01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:55,900
resort, there's exceptions. 
But that's like maybe this could

1253
01:04:55,900 --> 01:04:57,800
go see, it's hard not to think 
of this topic. 

1254
01:04:57,800 --> 01:04:59,800
In A Song of Ice and Fire 
without thinking of, this could 

1255
01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:01,200
go. 
See and some of the other 

1256
01:05:01,400 --> 01:05:04,800
examples of cannibalism around 
the world with the could go see 

1257
01:05:05,100 --> 01:05:08,900
religion, may play a role in 
their cannibalism and it may as 

1258
01:05:08,900 --> 01:05:13,100
well for the brindled men. 
But not all cannibalism is a 

1259
01:05:13,100 --> 01:05:16,000
matter of needing to eat some. 
Just do it. 

1260
01:05:16,400 --> 01:05:19,200
And there are other examples of 
cannibalism around Planet test 

1261
01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:21,100
but we just don't have a lot of 
detail on those. 

1262
01:05:21,100 --> 01:05:25,800
We just have the names and the 
basic thoughts and maybe that's 

1263
01:05:25,800 --> 01:05:30,200
for the best. 
But brand may have eaten jojen 

1264
01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:34,400
to gain powers and maybe the 
dark God is of safari owes 

1265
01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:36,700
promised powers to certain of 
their worshipers. 

1266
01:05:36,700 --> 01:05:42,300
If a similar cost is paid Hmm, 
magic has a cost in Martin's 

1267
01:05:42,300 --> 01:05:46,500
world, but as that quote 
reveals, not all sith'ari, I are

1268
01:05:46,500 --> 01:05:49,600
of this ilk or at least, they 
don't seem to be since they set 

1269
01:05:49,600 --> 01:05:52,900
up spots to trade with Outsiders
and presumably, don't eat them. 

1270
01:05:53,500 --> 01:05:55,200
Bad business to eat your 
customers. 

1271
01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:58,700
I would think considerable 
profit could be had via these 

1272
01:05:58,700 --> 01:06:01,200
simple trading locales after all
the brindled men, don't seem to 

1273
01:06:01,207 --> 01:06:04,800
have Smith's and forges. 
So good steal, weapons and tools

1274
01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:07,900
are likely to be fairly priced. 
Like they are amongst the 

1275
01:06:07,900 --> 01:06:10,700
wildlings Plenty. 
Cheap foods and drinks and 

1276
01:06:10,700 --> 01:06:14,200
alcohol would also be something 
that the satheri I might have a 

1277
01:06:14,300 --> 01:06:17,100
consistent demand for send us 
food or we'll have to eat each 

1278
01:06:17,100 --> 01:06:22,200
other basically or you a story 
set in the 30's could show us 

1279
01:06:22,500 --> 01:06:25,100
natives with a smattering of 
manufactured goods from a 

1280
01:06:25,100 --> 01:06:26,800
variety of cultures around the 
world. 

1281
01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:28,800
Some traded for some taken by 
force. 

1282
01:06:29,100 --> 01:06:31,800
When a she had made her pitch 
video for a nymeria TV show 

1283
01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:33,600
which you should check out. 
By the way, if you haven't seen,

1284
01:06:33,700 --> 01:06:37,400
she envisioned an old Smith 
teaching, a young girl Smith 

1285
01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:39,300
partly because most of the 
running are left. 

1286
01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:42,400
Why were women and the elderly? 
Those characters would have a 

1287
01:06:42,400 --> 01:06:45,100
lot of screen time in this part 
of the story here in south or 

1288
01:06:45,100 --> 01:06:48,800
EOS. 
And perhaps a natives, don't put

1289
01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:52,400
the same value on many of the 
items humankind desires, perhaps

1290
01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:55,700
they didn't care about gold or 
Gems or certain rare spices that

1291
01:06:55,700 --> 01:06:59,600
was the case here in the US 
Native Americans. 

1292
01:06:59,900 --> 01:07:04,600
Never really understood. 
Why the in the immigrating 

1293
01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:07,400
Americans from who call 
themselves Americans. 

1294
01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:11,000
Now, the Europeans immigrating 
to America, why they never 

1295
01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:13,600
understood why they value gold 
so much. 

1296
01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:18,400
They called it the metal that 
the yellow metal that As humans 

1297
01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:20,600
mad, or not humans. 
But the drives the white people 

1298
01:07:20,600 --> 01:07:24,000
mad. 
So it seems like a little bit of

1299
01:07:24,000 --> 01:07:26,400
that elements taking might be in
play in the 30s. 

1300
01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:29,300
So their lack of interest in 
certain Goods is valuable as it 

1301
01:07:29,300 --> 01:07:33,400
may be as a trade goal is paired
with their ability to survive 

1302
01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:38,600
that many deadly features of 
authority owes the natives know 

1303
01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:42,200
the other Natives and local 
creatures far better than any 

1304
01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:45,800
Foreigner could ever hope to at 
least not likely to let alone 

1305
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:47,000
their knowledge of the land 
itself. 

1306
01:07:47,100 --> 01:07:48,700
Self. 
But it goes, even beyond that as

1307
01:07:48,700 --> 01:07:52,400
well, just think of immunity, 
right, if you grow up on a 

1308
01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:54,100
continent with these diseases, 
you're gonna be a little more 

1309
01:07:54,100 --> 01:07:59,300
immune to the effects of them. 
Just like, when the Europeans 

1310
01:07:59,300 --> 01:08:01,300
came to America, the diseases, 
they brought with them helped 

1311
01:08:01,300 --> 01:08:05,200
wipe out a lot of the natives 
because their immune systems 

1312
01:08:05,500 --> 01:08:08,200
hadn't gotten used to that. 
This is the same concept. 

1313
01:08:08,900 --> 01:08:11,100
Now, whoever and probably 
doesn't discriminate between 

1314
01:08:11,100 --> 01:08:13,900
brindled men and regular men, 
but it's not the large 

1315
01:08:13,900 --> 01:08:15,100
creatures. 
We're worried about. 

1316
01:08:15,100 --> 01:08:17,300
Anyway, it's these small ones, 
the diseases. 

1317
01:08:17,399 --> 01:08:19,700
So, the meaning really, really 
small. 

1318
01:08:20,100 --> 01:08:22,500
A pic fighter named The brindled
Butcher. 

1319
01:08:22,700 --> 01:08:26,700
Presumably in natives Authority 
is freed along with all the 

1320
01:08:26,700 --> 01:08:29,700
other slaves in Marine. 
He is the only brindled man. 

1321
01:08:29,700 --> 01:08:32,600
We know of assuming he actually 
is one. 

1322
01:08:32,800 --> 01:08:34,500
The nickname could be 
misleading. 

1323
01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:36,899
Either way, there's a good 
chance. 

1324
01:08:36,899 --> 01:08:40,800
We see him in action during the 
upcoming Battle of fire, which 

1325
01:08:40,800 --> 01:08:45,000
we did an episode on years ago, 
if we see the brindled butcher, 

1326
01:08:45,000 --> 01:08:48,700
it'll most likely be from 
barest, ins point of view, but 

1327
01:08:48,700 --> 01:08:52,800
we could also see him through 
tyrion's or victorians a plague 

1328
01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:56,000
of plagues among these somewhat 
civilized brindled. 

1329
01:08:56,000 --> 01:08:59,700
Men who trade with Humankind 
they're presumed immunity 

1330
01:08:59,700 --> 01:09:02,300
partial or full to the vast 
range of pestilences that 

1331
01:09:02,300 --> 01:09:05,500
infects with Oreos is not be 
understated. 

1332
01:09:05,899 --> 01:09:09,899
Humans, trading near to the sea 
is better for everyone involved.

1333
01:09:09,899 --> 01:09:12,700
The natives, bring the goods, 
the humans are minimally exposed

1334
01:09:12,700 --> 01:09:14,800
to the really small Killers, the
diseases. 

1335
01:09:15,300 --> 01:09:17,899
Otherwise you'd have many people
traveling to South Aureus to 

1336
01:09:17,899 --> 01:09:20,399
obtain wealth through trade or 
otherwise. 

1337
01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:22,899
But then they have to return to 
civilization to sell these 

1338
01:09:22,899 --> 01:09:25,600
treasures and trade goods, 
possibly carrying with them. 

1339
01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:30,600
Some hideous, possibly spread 
Edible infection Tyrion 10. 

1340
01:09:30,800 --> 01:09:34,399
A Dance with Dragons. 
What's the master? 

1341
01:09:34,399 --> 01:09:38,700
Like Penny asked anxiously? 
His eyes are yellow and he 

1342
01:09:38,700 --> 01:09:43,000
stinks said sweets. 
Ten years ago he went as fourth 

1343
01:09:43,000 --> 01:09:46,500
Aureus, and he's been rotting 
from the inside out ever since 

1344
01:09:47,100 --> 01:09:51,100
making forget that he's dying 
even for a little while and he 

1345
01:09:51,100 --> 01:09:54,100
can be at most generous deny 
him. 

1346
01:09:54,400 --> 01:09:59,100
Nothing the master Yi's. 
Enzo keg has aka the yellow 

1347
01:09:59,100 --> 01:10:02,200
whale giving his pension for 
collecting exotic living. 

1348
01:10:02,500 --> 01:10:05,700
Creatures, it's probably why he 
went to South Oreos and he paid 

1349
01:10:05,700 --> 01:10:08,200
the price. 
Yasin is quite a symbol 

1350
01:10:08,300 --> 01:10:11,300
ultra-rich Ultra depraved. 
At the Pinnacle of a rotten 

1351
01:10:11,300 --> 01:10:15,700
culture as Beyond saving as he 
is, and his case, he doesn't 

1352
01:10:15,700 --> 01:10:18,600
appear to be contagious. 
But there would be cases that 

1353
01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:22,600
were that can cause all kinds of
problems especially diseases 

1354
01:10:22,600 --> 01:10:27,500
that don't Manifest symptoms 
quickly you know dormant 

1355
01:10:27,500 --> 01:10:31,300
diseases that pop up later after
they've spread that's really 

1356
01:10:31,300 --> 01:10:32,800
bad. 
And there's a number of the 

1357
01:10:32,800 --> 01:10:35,200
stories in this language fire 
regarding diseases entering a 

1358
01:10:35,208 --> 01:10:38,800
population Center V ship at 
Port, like the tail of the gray 

1359
01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:40,600
play. 
Get Old Town that pycelle tells 

1360
01:10:40,600 --> 01:10:43,600
the Ned early in the Game of 
Thrones or the other one where 

1361
01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:47,900
illyrio tells Tyrion regarding 
Sarah's death by. 

1362
01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:52,200
Also the Great Plague Last 
episode, we discussed grayscale 

1363
01:10:52,200 --> 01:10:55,000
quite a bit and how we think 
it'll be significant plot Point.

1364
01:10:55,100 --> 01:10:57,500
We've also already seen Daenerys
and Tyrion deal with play. 

1365
01:10:57,500 --> 01:11:00,700
Again, slavers Bay the pale 
mirror, which managed to finish 

1366
01:11:00,700 --> 01:11:03,800
off the yellow whale before the 
other disease. 

1367
01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:08,400
Did what a risk for him to have 
taken because I think this car 

1368
01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:11,000
would know better. 
I'm referring to you as Anne's. 

1369
01:11:11,000 --> 01:11:14,600
Okay, guys here, I think they 
did know the ghiscari, founded 

1370
01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:19,100
the first colony ever since the 
30s, that's known and more 

1371
01:11:19,100 --> 01:11:21,600
afterwards. 
They Are, or were surely aware 

1372
01:11:21,600 --> 01:11:24,900
that's Authority, is goes hard 
in the disease category, blood 

1373
01:11:24,900 --> 01:11:28,200
boils, green fever, sweet rot, 
bronze. 

1374
01:11:28,200 --> 01:11:33,700
Pate the Red Death grayscale, 
Brown leg worm, bone Sailors, 

1375
01:11:33,700 --> 01:11:38,800
beIN PSI, and yellow gum. 
I only a few of the diseases 

1376
01:11:38,800 --> 01:11:42,400
found here, many so virulent 
that they have been known to 

1377
01:11:42,400 --> 01:11:45,600
wipe out whole settlements, Arch
me, Stewie bruised. 

1378
01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:49,100
His study of centuries of 
Travelers accounts suggest that 

1379
01:11:49,100 --> 01:11:53,200
nine of every Ten Men, visiting 
sutorius from Westeros will 

1380
01:11:53,200 --> 01:11:57,000
suffer one or more of these 
afflictions and that almost half

1381
01:11:57,200 --> 01:12:00,400
will die. 
Only a few, it says, wipe out 

1382
01:12:00,400 --> 01:12:02,700
whole settlements. 
It says nine out of ten 

1383
01:12:02,700 --> 01:12:08,200
Afflicted half of those dead. 
It says so about 4.5 out of 10 

1384
01:12:08,200 --> 01:12:13,100
who visit diet means just 
visiting triggers that 

1385
01:12:13,100 --> 01:12:17,500
percentile dice check. 45% let's
say the arch manager is way off 

1386
01:12:17,500 --> 01:12:18,200
it. 
Let's say he's wrong. 

1387
01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:19,900
Let's say his perspective is 
bad. 

1388
01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:22,700
Let's, and let's say he's 
tripled the odds. 

1389
01:12:23,000 --> 01:12:27,400
That's still a 15% chance of 
just going there dying from 

1390
01:12:27,400 --> 01:12:29,700
disease, and we're not even 
counting the other dangers. 

1391
01:12:29,700 --> 01:12:34,000
So, still though, the rhoynar 
will eventually leave, and I'm 

1392
01:12:34,008 --> 01:12:36,800
not sure that almost half of 
them all died. 

1393
01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:38,400
So that's why I'm kind of 
questioning these numbers. 

1394
01:12:38,900 --> 01:12:40,800
So maybe the measures are wrong 
based on that. 

1395
01:12:40,800 --> 01:12:43,700
Or maybe the runner had 
something something magical or 

1396
01:12:43,700 --> 01:12:47,400
smarter ideas about sanitation, 
something that keep the disease 

1397
01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:49,900
from getting such as a bad thing
as it could be or both. 

1398
01:12:50,100 --> 01:12:51,700
They have several measures 
against that. 

1399
01:12:52,300 --> 01:12:54,200
Either way, it's quite a thing 
to be able to avoid. 

1400
01:12:54,200 --> 01:12:59,100
And if so well we may get more 
clothes later or maybe they 

1401
01:12:59,100 --> 01:13:01,500
really did lose almost half 
their number to disease. 

1402
01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:04,900
So we'll keep our options open 
as we move on to the first row 

1403
01:13:04,900 --> 01:13:07,800
in our settlements. 
And remember what we've seen 

1404
01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:10,200
with regards to fear and 
disease. 

1405
01:13:10,300 --> 01:13:12,500
The perspective we've been given
is that many brave warriors are 

1406
01:13:12,500 --> 01:13:14,500
not so brave when faced with 
disease. 

1407
01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:17,500
So, how anxious would that make 
a person living in this new 

1408
01:13:17,500 --> 01:13:19,200
realm? 
Knowing that the next drink of 

1409
01:13:19,200 --> 01:13:21,400
water? 
They take Take could be diseased

1410
01:13:21,500 --> 01:13:25,800
the next breath they take could 
be toxic sounds like hell and 

1411
01:13:25,800 --> 01:13:30,100
well it almost is just North of 
hell. 

1412
01:13:30,900 --> 01:13:33,800
So take all these awful 
dangerous people living in the 

1413
01:13:33,800 --> 01:13:37,900
basilisks and realize that they 
don't live on the main continent

1414
01:13:38,300 --> 01:13:40,600
there. 
This reason the aisles are so 

1415
01:13:40,600 --> 01:13:43,600
dangerous for the most part but 
even they don't want to mess 

1416
01:13:43,600 --> 01:13:46,700
with what's just down south and 
that's despite this. 

1417
01:13:47,200 --> 01:13:49,900
There are riches hidden amongst 
the jungle. 

1418
01:13:50,100 --> 01:13:53,900
And swamps and Sullen sun-baked,
rivers of the South Beyond a 

1419
01:13:53,900 --> 01:13:58,200
doubt, but for every man who 
finds gold or pearls or precious

1420
01:13:58,200 --> 01:14:02,700
spices, there are 100 who find 
only death. 

1421
01:14:02,800 --> 01:14:05,500
The fact that the pirate steer 
clear of the deep jungles, tells

1422
01:14:05,500 --> 01:14:08,300
you something they want money, 
but they don't want to pay that 

1423
01:14:08,300 --> 01:14:10,900
price to get it. 
They seem to agree with the 

1424
01:14:10,900 --> 01:14:14,400
maesters, the rhoynar for 
whatever reasons were game to 

1425
01:14:14,400 --> 01:14:16,300
try. 
However, maybe it was part 

1426
01:14:16,300 --> 01:14:17,800
desperation may be particular 
ins. 

1427
01:14:17,800 --> 01:14:20,800
Maybe they thought their water 
wizards, and He gave them a path

1428
01:14:20,800 --> 01:14:22,500
to colonization that others 
lacked. 

1429
01:14:23,600 --> 01:14:26,700
And thinking this through it's 
not as if no one at all lives 

1430
01:14:26,700 --> 01:14:29,200
there. 
As we're told quote, a score of 

1431
01:14:29,200 --> 01:14:32,200
small trade towns cling to the 
northern coast. 

1432
01:14:32,700 --> 01:14:35,800
The cool says of the Basilisk 
Isles, Prey Upon these 

1433
01:14:35,800 --> 01:14:39,500
settlements, carrying off 
captives to holding pens on 

1434
01:14:39,500 --> 01:14:42,800
Talon and the Isle of Tears 
before selling them to the flesh

1435
01:14:42,800 --> 01:14:46,200
markets of slavers Bay or the 
pillow houses, and pleasure 

1436
01:14:46,200 --> 01:14:50,600
Gardens of lease and the native 
races grow ever more Savage and 

1437
01:14:50,600 --> 01:14:53,000
primitive. 
A father, one travels from the 

1438
01:14:54,100 --> 01:14:58,300
So unlike the jungles, these 
Pirates are willing to target 

1439
01:14:58,300 --> 01:15:01,300
the people who probably not, 
those more Savage and primitive 

1440
01:15:01,300 --> 01:15:03,700
ones. 
Inland just these Coastal ones, 

1441
01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:07,500
we can only wonder whether these
existed in nine, myriad's day, I

1442
01:15:07,500 --> 01:15:09,800
would guess. 
Yes, what a sight for those 

1443
01:15:09,800 --> 01:15:11,700
local to see. 
So many new neighbors moving in 

1444
01:15:11,700 --> 01:15:14,400
though. 
Would be odd, though, there were

1445
01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:16,300
exceptions and smaller 
communities. 

1446
01:15:16,300 --> 01:15:19,900
There were three primary 
locations on the mainland that 

1447
01:15:19,900 --> 01:15:22,200
the rowing are aimed for some 
subtle. 

1448
01:15:22,200 --> 01:15:25,200
Don, basilisk point. 
Others beside the glistening 

1449
01:15:25,200 --> 01:15:29,500
green waters of his Amaya's 
amongst quicksands crocodiles 

1450
01:15:29,500 --> 01:15:32,300
and rotting. 
Half-drowned trees, princess 

1451
01:15:32,300 --> 01:15:36,200
nymeria herself remained with 
the ships at Summit are a 

1452
01:15:36,200 --> 01:15:40,400
ghiscari colony abandoned for a 
thousand years whilst others 

1453
01:15:40,400 --> 01:15:44,900
made their way upriver to the 
cyclopean ruins of Eugene, haunt

1454
01:15:44,900 --> 01:15:48,800
of ghouls and spiders settling 
in an abandoned Colony keeps us 

1455
01:15:48,800 --> 01:15:51,800
well, in sync with Denarius 
whose first stop after the red 

1456
01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:54,000
waste, was vice to lauro. 
First. 

1457
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:56,400
And he saw it as a temporary 
base of operations, while 

1458
01:15:56,400 --> 01:15:58,500
nymeria was hopeful that her 
people could stay for the long 

1459
01:15:58,500 --> 01:16:01,300
term still. 
The parallel is pretty strong, 

1460
01:16:01,700 --> 01:16:03,300
this is Maurice River. 
Would seem to be the best 

1461
01:16:03,300 --> 01:16:06,200
destination given the need for 
freshwater and there are no 

1462
01:16:06,200 --> 01:16:07,900
other visible Rivers shown to 
us. 

1463
01:16:07,900 --> 01:16:09,500
There's probably some smaller 
ones that just won't appear on 

1464
01:16:09,500 --> 01:16:13,000
the map. 
Still, some people chose a spot,

1465
01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:16,100
not on the simonis river, which 
is maybe a bit unusual for the 

1466
01:16:16,100 --> 01:16:17,800
rhoynar, definitely worth a 
look. 

1467
01:16:17,800 --> 01:16:21,500
So let's start with them. 
Basilisk Point long. 

1468
01:16:21,500 --> 01:16:26,300
Before any of us were born, our 
I shared ancestors all around 

1469
01:16:26,300 --> 01:16:28,000
the globe. 
Hunted the most dangerous 

1470
01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:31,200
animals to Extinction while 
domesticating the useful and 

1471
01:16:31,200 --> 01:16:34,000
friendly ones. 
They battle diseases invented 

1472
01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:36,700
essential tools. 
We now take for granted explored

1473
01:16:36,700 --> 01:16:40,000
unexplored lands and dealt with 
fear of Kinds, we no longer 

1474
01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:41,400
face. 
Now, a lot of that fear of the 

1475
01:16:41,400 --> 01:16:45,900
unknown ancestors of the Rhine 
are did the same, but now this 

1476
01:16:45,900 --> 01:16:49,000
generation was starting that 
process all over, especially the

1477
01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:52,300
ones here on basilisk point and 
zammit are and Eugene. 

1478
01:16:52,500 --> 01:16:55,000
They had ancient ruins to 
Repurpose there's at least some 

1479
01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:58,200
structures to reuse but the 
Basilisk Point rhoynar appear to

1480
01:16:58,208 --> 01:17:00,700
have been starting mostly from 
scratch. 

1481
01:17:02,100 --> 01:17:05,100
Again, there's no visible River 
on basilisk point, but there had

1482
01:17:05,100 --> 01:17:07,000
to be some kind of water source 
or just wouldn't have been 

1483
01:17:07,000 --> 01:17:09,700
livable at all in my 
neighborhood. 

1484
01:17:09,700 --> 01:17:12,900
A chief concern is termites, 
like it is in a lot of 

1485
01:17:12,900 --> 01:17:14,500
neighborhoods. 
That's one of the biggest 

1486
01:17:14,800 --> 01:17:17,300
enemies of homeowners around the
world. 

1487
01:17:17,500 --> 01:17:20,400
This group moved from another 
beautiful idyllic River 

1488
01:17:20,400 --> 01:17:22,300
situation best in the world to 
having a live. 

1489
01:17:22,300 --> 01:17:25,300
In a place named after huge 
angry poisonous, reptiles, 

1490
01:17:25,800 --> 01:17:28,400
unlike the Basilisk Isles, where
there are no actual basilisks, 

1491
01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:31,700
they do exist in this area. 
And remember what we told you 

1492
01:17:31,700 --> 01:17:35,000
about, About how nasty they are.
At least they didn't choose to 

1493
01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:37,000
live it with her and point. 
Am I right? 

1494
01:17:37,600 --> 01:17:41,400
No, really. 
That is a place to its ghiscari 

1495
01:17:41,400 --> 01:17:45,100
built a call and he called 
garage there and it didn't go. 

1496
01:17:45,100 --> 01:17:48,600
Well we can only wonder if the 
rhoynar new much of the other 

1497
01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:51,300
failed colonies in this area 
apart from their ruins. 

1498
01:17:52,900 --> 01:17:55,900
Not only is there this question 
of choosing to live amongst 

1499
01:17:55,900 --> 01:17:59,600
these beasts but also why did 
this group of settlers choose to

1500
01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:02,200
live so far from the other Ryan 
are settlements? 

1501
01:18:02,700 --> 01:18:07,800
It could be the simplest of all 
explanations that stubborn ruin 

1502
01:18:07,800 --> 01:18:11,700
our independence because I do 
think that it wouldn't have been

1503
01:18:11,700 --> 01:18:14,000
a space issue. 
As will cease avatars, 

1504
01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:17,500
particularly large least, it 
seems to be, but maybe we're 

1505
01:18:17,500 --> 01:18:20,100
under estimating the size of the
number of Ryan are. 

1506
01:18:20,100 --> 01:18:22,500
So this is kind of a mystery 
either way. 

1507
01:18:22,700 --> 01:18:26,400
It's not hard to imagine that 
within the rhoynar. 

1508
01:18:26,400 --> 01:18:29,700
There was a faction who chafed 
under nine Mary's rule, even if 

1509
01:18:29,700 --> 01:18:32,400
she was doing a good job, 
there's just always someone that

1510
01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:34,000
thinks they can do better, 
right? 

1511
01:18:34,300 --> 01:18:37,400
Perhaps, believing the new 
circumstances, granted them the 

1512
01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:40,100
right to do things differently 
to like hey this isn't the 

1513
01:18:40,100 --> 01:18:42,300
Rhine, why are we Bound by the 
laws? 

1514
01:18:42,300 --> 01:18:44,200
We followed their. 
This is a whole new Society 

1515
01:18:44,200 --> 01:18:46,500
we're building. 
There would be people that, you 

1516
01:18:46,500 --> 01:18:50,300
know, found ways to work around.
What was there. 

1517
01:18:50,300 --> 01:18:54,500
You know, lots of new lawyers 
They're coming up with new 

1518
01:18:54,500 --> 01:18:57,900
interpretations of old 
situations, just like it was for

1519
01:18:57,900 --> 01:19:01,500
the corsairs, the chaos, and 
confusion, and fear is also an 

1520
01:19:01,500 --> 01:19:05,200
opportunity though. 
Given time the new princes and 

1521
01:19:05,200 --> 01:19:08,300
princesses have basilisk point. 
I guess, that's what they'd be 

1522
01:19:08,700 --> 01:19:11,100
after coming up with a suitably,
artsy new name for the area. 

1523
01:19:11,100 --> 01:19:13,800
They'd probably have named it, 
something they are not down with

1524
01:19:13,800 --> 01:19:15,500
basilisk. 
Let's be honest, I doubt they 

1525
01:19:15,500 --> 01:19:17,600
wanted to call it basilisk Point
anyway. 

1526
01:19:17,600 --> 01:19:20,100
They could challenge nymeria for
supremacy of the running are in 

1527
01:19:20,100 --> 01:19:23,500
time. 
They again, people are always 

1528
01:19:23,500 --> 01:19:26,900
playing a game of thrones but if
it went well enough, that's the 

1529
01:19:26,900 --> 01:19:29,200
thing over time, this would be 
an option. 

1530
01:19:29,200 --> 01:19:31,000
It certainly wouldn't be right 
away. 

1531
01:19:32,200 --> 01:19:34,800
And of course, this would not be
the dream of the vast majority 

1532
01:19:34,800 --> 01:19:36,700
of the commoners. 
And even most of the Nobles 

1533
01:19:36,700 --> 01:19:39,800
we're talking about exceptions 
here, most would just be 

1534
01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:43,300
probably wanting to build 
towards a new future. 

1535
01:19:43,300 --> 01:19:47,300
They all agree, at least that 
the return to prosperity in any 

1536
01:19:47,300 --> 01:19:49,200
form would be a huge 
Improvement. 

1537
01:19:49,800 --> 01:19:53,000
They clear back large sections 
of Jungle Build Villages that 

1538
01:19:53,000 --> 01:19:56,500
could grow into towns and maybe 
cities and one day maybe return 

1539
01:19:56,500 --> 01:19:58,800
to mother. 
Roin that was probably the plan 

1540
01:19:58,800 --> 01:20:01,800
or at least the plan of a lot of
them that most of all. 

1541
01:20:01,900 --> 01:20:05,000
All well Revenge. 
Yes they want that but returning

1542
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:08,000
home. 
That would be the primary dream.

1543
01:20:08,200 --> 01:20:13,200
I think I remember. 
Now, even currently we have Ryan

1544
01:20:13,200 --> 01:20:17,100
are bred and born in Dorne who 
want to go to Mother ruined 

1545
01:20:17,100 --> 01:20:18,500
Landry. 
And you Scylla, we saw in the 

1546
01:20:18,500 --> 01:20:20,200
last episode, that's exactly 
what they did. 

1547
01:20:20,200 --> 01:20:23,600
They were born in Dorne but they
felt the call and moved back to 

1548
01:20:23,700 --> 01:20:25,100
Mother rhoyne despite the 
dangers. 

1549
01:20:25,500 --> 01:20:28,600
Earlier we spoke of how the 
portion of the iron Fleet that 

1550
01:20:28,600 --> 01:20:31,700
passed through here. 
Apparently, fared poorly. 

1551
01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:36,700
With 20 to 30 ships unaccounted 
for think of that while. 

1552
01:20:36,700 --> 01:20:40,100
Also pondering euron's claims 
that he's been all over the 

1553
01:20:40,100 --> 01:20:42,800
world. 
Euron Greyjoy at the Basilisk 

1554
01:20:42,800 --> 01:20:45,800
Isles are. 
Hey, if he can go to valyria, 

1555
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:51,300
why not so thoreau's to zammit 
our past attempts to settle into

1556
01:20:51,300 --> 01:20:53,500
torrio's? 
It said in the world of Ice and 

1557
01:20:53,500 --> 01:20:59,000
Fire colonies, planted here with
a and die only as I'm at are 

1558
01:20:59,000 --> 01:21:02,400
injured for more than a 
generation and today, They even 

1559
01:21:02,400 --> 01:21:05,300
that once. 
Great city is a haunted ruin 

1560
01:21:05,300 --> 01:21:08,200
slowly being reclaimed by the 
jungle. 

1561
01:21:08,500 --> 01:21:11,100
Well, that doesn't sound great 
even if it does sound better 

1562
01:21:11,100 --> 01:21:14,000
than the other options. 
Yeah, compare that, to what we 

1563
01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:17,100
heard last episode quote, 
elegant cities each Lovelier 

1564
01:21:17,100 --> 01:21:19,500
than the last, if we're 
continuing to think about 

1565
01:21:19,500 --> 01:21:20,700
perspective, then we can't miss 
that. 

1566
01:21:20,700 --> 01:21:23,700
This is a serious downgrade. 
And they were so used to so much

1567
01:21:23,700 --> 01:21:26,500
better, and more importantly, 
perhaps so much safe. 

1568
01:21:27,000 --> 01:21:29,700
Still, unlike basilisk point in 
our next topic. 

1569
01:21:29,700 --> 01:21:33,900
You mean I could see why as a 
matar I have worked as a colony.

1570
01:21:34,300 --> 01:21:37,500
Those other two know if I really
don't see how bastions Point. 

1571
01:21:37,500 --> 01:21:40,600
Our Union could have ever worked
to be honest, but I don't have 

1572
01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:43,200
all the information still. 
Let me explain why I think. 

1573
01:21:43,200 --> 01:21:45,400
Zammit are could have worked. 
It's a good bit of mystery 

1574
01:21:45,400 --> 01:21:47,100
around, zammit are but it 
appears to have been a 

1575
01:21:47,108 --> 01:21:51,300
successful Colony for at least 
some bit of time and that some 

1576
01:21:51,300 --> 01:21:53,800
bit of time could be centuries 
or it could be even longer. 

1577
01:21:53,900 --> 01:21:56,800
It could only be like 40 to 50 
years, but I lean towards the 

1578
01:21:56,800 --> 01:22:00,000
longer time frame because it was
built by the ghiscari before the

1579
01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:03,000
third ghiscari war and then 
Captured by valyria during the 

1580
01:22:03,000 --> 01:22:05,500
fourth ghiscari War. 
So, it lasted at least the span 

1581
01:22:05,500 --> 01:22:08,600
of those two Wars plus however, 
long valyria had it before they 

1582
01:22:08,600 --> 01:22:10,900
left it and we don't know why 
they left it. 

1583
01:22:11,800 --> 01:22:14,000
So there's part of the mystery, 
they maybe they abandoned it 

1584
01:22:14,000 --> 01:22:15,400
right away. 
Maybe they had it for a long 

1585
01:22:15,400 --> 01:22:16,400
time. 
Maybe they had it for many 

1586
01:22:16,400 --> 01:22:20,000
centuries and it wouldn't be 
called great if it just barely 

1587
01:22:20,000 --> 01:22:23,200
hung on for a while, right? 
That's it would never have been 

1588
01:22:23,200 --> 01:22:25,100
great if it was, just barely 
surviving. 

1589
01:22:25,600 --> 01:22:29,000
So the next question we should 
ask is what made it great. 

1590
01:22:29,800 --> 01:22:32,500
Well, we have that whole mouth 
of the river thing going for it,

1591
01:22:32,500 --> 01:22:34,700
right? 
It's less valuable in this kind 

1592
01:22:34,700 --> 01:22:38,400
of circumstance because there's 
not cities or people up River to

1593
01:22:38,400 --> 01:22:40,800
be sending trade goods 
Downstream. 

1594
01:22:41,400 --> 01:22:43,800
But in times a matar could have 
become the center of something 

1595
01:22:43,800 --> 01:22:46,800
big. 
That's probably what valyria and

1596
01:22:46,800 --> 01:22:50,100
ghiscari cultured both wanted. 
But instead of the center, they 

1597
01:22:50,100 --> 01:22:52,800
became the whole thing because 
nothing else seemed to work. 

1598
01:22:53,300 --> 01:22:57,200
Zammit are is a walled City 
that's also likely part of why I

1599
01:22:57,200 --> 01:22:59,400
survived. 
It's a huge help in keeping 

1600
01:22:59,500 --> 01:23:02,900
Being out like brindled men and 
nasty creatures when stop a 

1601
01:23:02,907 --> 01:23:05,700
wyvern, but whoever might not 
want to come into a city. 

1602
01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:09,800
Still, those walls were probably
initially intended to keep in 

1603
01:23:09,800 --> 01:23:13,200
slaves, but walls are doubly 
useful like that, aren't they? 

1604
01:23:14,200 --> 01:23:16,900
They may have been able to 
import food from essos and 

1605
01:23:16,900 --> 01:23:19,900
ancient times, right? 
Because it's a colony from a 

1606
01:23:19,907 --> 01:23:22,300
larger Empire. 
The rhoynar would not have been 

1607
01:23:22,300 --> 01:23:24,300
able to do that, though. 
Or at least they would have had 

1608
01:23:24,300 --> 01:23:27,600
a really hard time doing that. 
I'm guessing it wasn't possible 

1609
01:23:27,600 --> 01:23:29,300
at all. 
Still, there is the possibility 

1610
01:23:29,300 --> 01:23:31,800
of trade with the locals, 
whatever, good that would do 

1611
01:23:31,800 --> 01:23:33,200
them in terms of food. 
I'm not sure. 

1612
01:23:34,300 --> 01:23:36,700
Earlier, we mentioned how 
finished trade goods, especially

1613
01:23:36,700 --> 01:23:39,200
tools, and weapons were, and are
likely to be valued by the 

1614
01:23:39,200 --> 01:23:42,700
natives, given their limited 
capacity to, well, make things 

1615
01:23:42,700 --> 01:23:45,700
on their own, consider that in 
the light of the notable skills 

1616
01:23:45,700 --> 01:23:48,200
possessed by the Reiner. 
And that regard, perhaps, that 

1617
01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:50,600
was one of the draws for them to
come to the throws in the first 

1618
01:23:50,600 --> 01:23:52,700
place are like, look, our 
craftsmanship is going to be 

1619
01:23:52,700 --> 01:23:54,400
able to trade really well down 
there. 

1620
01:23:55,000 --> 01:23:57,700
Yeah, it's true. 
That is likely applies to all 

1621
01:23:57,700 --> 01:23:59,700
the running our settlements. 
But I would think zammit are 

1622
01:23:59,700 --> 01:24:02,500
would be the primary trade spot 
given its location. 

1623
01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:06,500
Don't may not have been in the 
past and a matar was in the 

1624
01:24:06,500 --> 01:24:08,900
center of the new row in our 
Collective here, right? 

1625
01:24:08,900 --> 01:24:11,100
Because there was a settlement 
in basileus point and it would 

1626
01:24:11,100 --> 01:24:14,300
be only a couple of days or so 
sales of the West and Eugene 

1627
01:24:14,300 --> 01:24:18,200
would be even closer Downriver. 
It's also said that they stored 

1628
01:24:18,200 --> 01:24:23,100
their so-called 10,000 ships 
here and of showing that they 

1629
01:24:23,100 --> 01:24:24,800
considered it. 
The center of their new 

1630
01:24:25,500 --> 01:24:29,900
rhoynish, Confederacy of South 
Orioles, I'll call it and it's a

1631
01:24:29,900 --> 01:24:32,500
major important that nymeria 
chose to make her seat here as 

1632
01:24:32,500 --> 01:24:34,800
well. 
That's It's very relevant to the

1633
01:24:34,800 --> 01:24:38,700
issue of governess. 
In this new situation here and 

1634
01:24:38,708 --> 01:24:42,200
she again wasn't married. 
She's going to be three times in

1635
01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:45,800
fact, but all the three of those
come after he arrives in Dorne. 

1636
01:24:45,800 --> 01:24:48,600
So at this point she was likely 
still getting bombarded by 

1637
01:24:48,600 --> 01:24:51,100
offers though. 
Probably less than there. 

1638
01:24:51,100 --> 01:24:53,600
Would have been because there's 
so few men. 

1639
01:24:55,700 --> 01:24:58,600
She might have had offers from 
corsairs or natives from the 

1640
01:24:58,600 --> 01:25:02,300
Basilisk maybe even from gothos.
There's another quick note 

1641
01:25:02,300 --> 01:25:05,700
though, even though she didn't 
marry maybe some of the other 

1642
01:25:05,700 --> 01:25:07,800
roaring are mingled with the 
locals themselves. 

1643
01:25:07,900 --> 01:25:11,300
It's likely in fact, but we also
read that this Authority, I 

1644
01:25:11,300 --> 01:25:14,000
can't breed with humans. 
We don't know about the other 

1645
01:25:14,000 --> 01:25:17,700
way around so much, and the same
thing is said about breeding 

1646
01:25:17,700 --> 01:25:20,100
with the Ebony's and that's Up 
For Debate. 

1647
01:25:20,200 --> 01:25:22,100
That's why I challenged The 
Matrix on this because the 

1648
01:25:22,100 --> 01:25:25,100
maesters, say, no, you can't 
breed with the Ebony's but Brown

1649
01:25:25,100 --> 01:25:29,000
been Mum says, one of his 
ancestors is from Ebbs, so I 

1650
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:31,200
don't know, I'm pretty sure 
exact from Game of Thrones is 

1651
01:25:31,200 --> 01:25:33,600
also part of fish, but keep that
on the down low. 

1652
01:25:35,300 --> 01:25:37,600
Setting all that aside, all 
these wrong in art were 

1653
01:25:37,600 --> 01:25:39,800
desperate. 
But also Brave, choosing, the 

1654
01:25:39,800 --> 01:25:43,100
30s was bold, even even if they 
were ignorant of some of its 

1655
01:25:43,100 --> 01:25:46,100
features, and they may not have 
been, that's just one 

1656
01:25:46,100 --> 01:25:48,300
possibility. 
There's an argument to be made, 

1657
01:25:48,300 --> 01:25:51,600
however, that some were braver 
than others, the bravest group 

1658
01:25:51,600 --> 01:25:55,000
of Ryan are, may have been those
who settled deepest in the 

1659
01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:59,300
jungles, closest to the unknown.
What was the red common and the 

1660
01:25:59,300 --> 01:26:02,100
return of dragons in the others?
It's clear. 

1661
01:26:02,100 --> 01:26:05,000
Magic is on the rise in Westeros
and essos. 

1662
01:26:05,100 --> 01:26:10,000
Yes, so why not sutorius to are 
the dark gods of the brindled 

1663
01:26:10,000 --> 01:26:11,900
men? 
Whispering to their shamans. 

1664
01:26:12,300 --> 01:26:15,400
What old powers are Awakening in
those endless. 

1665
01:26:15,500 --> 01:26:18,700
Teaming jungles. 
Since magic was active during 

1666
01:26:18,700 --> 01:26:21,700
nymeria has time. 
Keep it in mind during this next

1667
01:26:21,700 --> 01:26:25,700
section. 
Yean, the third of the 

1668
01:26:25,700 --> 01:26:29,100
settlements after zammit are, 
and basileus point is one, we've

1669
01:26:29,100 --> 01:26:31,800
already discussed not in this 
episode, but in our great Empire

1670
01:26:31,800 --> 01:26:35,000
of the Dawn, episode with LML, 
shout out to Lucifer means 

1671
01:26:35,000 --> 01:26:38,100
lightbringer because that is now
our most watched episode of all 

1672
01:26:38,100 --> 01:26:39,700
time. 
Great Empire of the Dawn, cool, 

1673
01:26:39,700 --> 01:26:41,900
huh? 
So here at yean deepest in the 

1674
01:26:41,900 --> 01:26:46,200
jungle closest to the Mysteries,
we'd expect well the worst 

1675
01:26:46,200 --> 01:26:49,200
expect the worst. 
Yeah, the city has no written 

1676
01:26:49,200 --> 01:26:51,300
all over it and I really don't 
know what the runner were 

1677
01:26:51,300 --> 01:26:53,400
thinking, maybe it was that 
whole bit about trying to 

1678
01:26:53,400 --> 01:26:56,500
impress Beautiful, princess with
extreme bravery, a whole colony 

1679
01:26:56,500 --> 01:26:59,000
of such types perhaps, or maybe 
it was that running, our 

1680
01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:02,500
independence thing on steroids, 
they didn't want to live with 

1681
01:27:02,500 --> 01:27:05,300
nymeria, they wanted to do, you 
know, be under their own control

1682
01:27:05,300 --> 01:27:06,500
or something. 
It's hard to say. 

1683
01:27:06,500 --> 01:27:09,400
These guys don't feel all that 
satisfying though, because 

1684
01:27:09,400 --> 01:27:11,100
nymeria herself is said to have 
considered it. 

1685
01:27:11,100 --> 01:27:14,100
Evil maced isn't other Scholars 
alike. 

1686
01:27:14,100 --> 01:27:17,700
Have puzzled over the greatest 
of the enigmas, of sutorius, the

1687
01:27:17,700 --> 01:27:22,200
ancient city of Eugene, a ruin 
older than time built of oily 

1688
01:27:22,200 --> 01:27:26,000
Blackstone in massive, Blocked 
so heavy that it would require a

1689
01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:30,500
dozen elephants to move them. 
Ian has remained a desolation 

1690
01:27:30,500 --> 01:27:34,300
for many thousands of years. 
Yet the jungle that surrounds it

1691
01:27:34,300 --> 01:27:37,900
on every side has scarce touched
it a city. 

1692
01:27:37,900 --> 01:27:40,900
So evil that even the jungle 
will not enter. 

1693
01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:44,500
I'm area is supposed to have 
said when she laid eyes on it if

1694
01:27:44,500 --> 01:27:49,700
the tales are true every attempt
to rebuild or acetylene has 

1695
01:27:49,700 --> 01:27:53,300
ended in horror ended in horror.
Yeah, like I said, expect the 

1696
01:27:53,300 --> 01:27:57,800
worst Mariah ourself called it 
evil yet, clearly people lived 

1697
01:27:57,800 --> 01:27:59,300
there. 
So I don't know. 

1698
01:27:59,500 --> 01:28:02,300
I believe this shows the nature 
of her rulership here, which is 

1699
01:28:02,300 --> 01:28:04,700
that her people were basically 
free to leave her at any time. 

1700
01:28:05,100 --> 01:28:07,300
I seriously doubt the city she 
called evil was a place. 

1701
01:28:07,300 --> 01:28:09,500
She recommended other people 
live. 

1702
01:28:09,800 --> 01:28:12,600
So I'm guessing some factions, 
some family, or even a strong 

1703
01:28:12,600 --> 01:28:15,100
singular leader, perhaps just 
picked this spot and others 

1704
01:28:15,100 --> 01:28:20,700
followed despite whatever 
hesitation others had some 

1705
01:28:20,700 --> 01:28:23,400
clearly did it. 
Maybe they looked at the jungle 

1706
01:28:23,400 --> 01:28:25,900
and how It wouldn't grow into 
the City and thought that a 

1707
01:28:25,907 --> 01:28:30,300
convenience instead of a bad bad
sign of what it does to life. 

1708
01:28:30,700 --> 01:28:32,900
And there's a lot to remind us 
here of a shy. 

1709
01:28:33,200 --> 01:28:37,300
The greasy black stones of 
gigantic size really gigantic. 

1710
01:28:37,300 --> 01:28:41,500
Don't forget the lack of plant 
life, the wealth nearby, but the

1711
01:28:41,500 --> 01:28:45,500
area around a shy is while 
mysterious pretty dead, the 

1712
01:28:45,500 --> 01:28:48,400
shadow right? 
Gene itself is a dead zone 2 but

1713
01:28:48,400 --> 01:28:52,000
it's surrounded by jungles 
teeming with life life that will

1714
01:28:52,000 --> 01:28:55,400
kill you. 
A fun question here is, did the 

1715
01:28:55,400 --> 01:28:58,100
ghiscari founders? 
A matar try to settle Gene as 

1716
01:28:58,100 --> 01:29:00,200
well. 
Did they see it like nymeria? 

1717
01:29:00,200 --> 01:29:01,500
Did a big? 
Nope. 

1718
01:29:01,600 --> 01:29:04,300
A big evil. 
Same question for the valyrians.

1719
01:29:04,300 --> 01:29:07,900
We took over as a matar. 
What was their relationship to 

1720
01:29:07,900 --> 01:29:09,700
ye? 
Did they try to settle it? 

1721
01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:16,000
We're not sure where the equator
on Planet X is, but it probably 

1722
01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:19,300
is nearby given how hot it is, 
and how hot it wasn't valyria 

1723
01:29:19,300 --> 01:29:23,000
and say Dorne is now, maybe it 
starts to get cooler down near 

1724
01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:27,200
yean, maybe, maybe it's even 
hotter but and if it is that's 

1725
01:29:27,200 --> 01:29:28,800
bad, but also would make it like
cheese. 

1726
01:29:28,800 --> 01:29:29,800
Why didn't anyone want to live 
there? 

1727
01:29:29,808 --> 01:29:33,000
If it's also hotter because if 
it was cooler there if it has 

1728
01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:36,700
slightly better weather than 
maybe that's something that 

1729
01:29:36,700 --> 01:29:39,900
would make e'en less terrible 
than the other rhoynar colonies.

1730
01:29:40,000 --> 01:29:42,700
He's I mean it's deeper in the 
jungle deeper into the 

1731
01:29:42,700 --> 01:29:45,700
unexplored or as we heard 
earlier the more dangerous 

1732
01:29:45,700 --> 01:29:48,500
creatures live and where the 
brindled men are more Savage. 

1733
01:29:48,500 --> 01:29:52,800
This is bad back on the ROI in 
the worst thing is the stone men

1734
01:29:52,800 --> 01:29:56,700
and those didn't even exist yet 
at this time given garin's curse

1735
01:29:56,700 --> 01:30:00,300
at just occurred and besides 
they're not even near as 

1736
01:30:00,300 --> 01:30:03,400
terrifying than then. 
The things that happened down 

1737
01:30:03,400 --> 01:30:06,700
here even with grayscale 
included because the diseases of

1738
01:30:06,700 --> 01:30:09,400
scenarios are far worse and gray
scales one of them. 

1739
01:30:09,400 --> 01:30:11,800
Anyway, Yeah, there's greyscale 
and Seth Oreos too. 

1740
01:30:12,900 --> 01:30:17,100
And the area a bit, south of 
Eugene is called The Green Hill.

1741
01:30:17,200 --> 01:30:20,800
Not exactly name that suggests. 
This southern area is cooler, 

1742
01:30:20,800 --> 01:30:22,600
right? 
I mean temperature wise so hell 

1743
01:30:22,600 --> 01:30:26,300
doesn't make it sound cooler. 
It sounds hotter even earlier we

1744
01:30:26,300 --> 01:30:29,900
mentioned the giant Apes who can
kill elephants with a punch, 

1745
01:30:30,600 --> 01:30:33,800
what? 
But still even they apparently 

1746
01:30:33,800 --> 01:30:37,500
live, north of Green Hill but 
south of Eugene where even worse

1747
01:30:37,500 --> 01:30:44,700
things live Even worse things 
that if the tails are to be 

1748
01:30:44,700 --> 01:30:49,300
trusted our Caverns full of pill
wider vampire bats who can drain

1749
01:30:49,300 --> 01:30:52,800
the blood from a man in minutes.
Tattooed lizard stalk. 

1750
01:30:52,800 --> 01:30:56,000
The jungles running down their 
prey, and ripping them apart 

1751
01:30:56,000 --> 01:30:59,500
with the long curved claws, on 
their powerful, hind legs 

1752
01:30:59,500 --> 01:31:03,000
snakes. 50 feet, long Slither 
through the underbrush and 

1753
01:31:03,000 --> 01:31:08,100
spotted spiders weave, their 
webs amongst the great trees the

1754
01:31:08,100 --> 01:31:11,900
maesters Knowledge that these 
are tales and perhaps not to be 

1755
01:31:11,900 --> 01:31:14,600
trusted fully but like it is 
with the disease statistics. 

1756
01:31:14,600 --> 01:31:17,100
Even if you take these Tails 
down a notch or three, they're 

1757
01:31:17,100 --> 01:31:19,700
still scary. 
And suggested that with horns 

1758
01:31:19,700 --> 01:31:23,900
are most common in this area, 
perhaps accepting wyvern point 

1759
01:31:24,100 --> 01:31:26,800
and the Rhine are in Eugene seem
to be the most likely to have 

1760
01:31:26,800 --> 01:31:30,100
encountered them. 
However the greatest danger was 

1761
01:31:30,100 --> 01:31:33,500
likely the brindled men. 
As we see here where we also see

1762
01:31:33,500 --> 01:31:37,600
wasn't going well, in any of the
colonies, there were riches to 

1763
01:31:37,600 --> 01:31:40,800
be found in Safari has Gold 
Gems. 

1764
01:31:40,800 --> 01:31:46,600
Rare Woods exotic, pelts queer 
fruits and strange spices but 

1765
01:31:46,600 --> 01:31:48,700
the rhoynar did not Thrive 
there. 

1766
01:31:48,900 --> 01:31:53,100
The Sullen wet heat oppressed 
their spirits and swarms of 

1767
01:31:53,100 --> 01:31:57,700
stinging flies spread one 
disease after another Green 

1768
01:31:57,700 --> 01:32:03,000
fever, the dancing plague blood 
boils weeping sores, sweet rot, 

1769
01:32:03,300 --> 01:32:07,000
the young and very old proved 
especially vulnerable to such 

1770
01:32:07,000 --> 01:32:09,800
contagions. 
Even to Splash in the river was 

1771
01:32:09,800 --> 01:32:12,600
to court death. 
For those Among Us was infested 

1772
01:32:12,600 --> 01:32:17,100
with schools of carnivorous fish
and a tiny worms that laid their

1773
01:32:17,100 --> 01:32:21,100
eggs in the flesh of swimmers to
of the new towns on basilisk 

1774
01:32:21,100 --> 01:32:24,700
Point were raided by slavers 
their entire populace, put to 

1775
01:32:24,700 --> 01:32:26,700
the sword or carried off in 
Chains. 

1776
01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:31,000
While seeing had to contend with
attacks from the brindled ghouls

1777
01:32:31,000 --> 01:32:35,000
of the Jungle deeps and that 
last bit is actually another 

1778
01:32:35,000 --> 01:32:37,500
reason why you mean might have 
seemed preferable. 

1779
01:32:37,700 --> 01:32:40,700
It Was Out Of Reach of the 
slavers for the most part but 

1780
01:32:40,800 --> 01:32:43,800
how terrible that must have been
throwing our had seen too much 

1781
01:32:43,800 --> 01:32:46,200
slavery and one can only imagine
that. 

1782
01:32:46,200 --> 01:32:48,700
Since some of these were 
probably sold to valyria. 

1783
01:32:48,800 --> 01:32:52,400
They were taunted probably by 
the slavers for being caught 

1784
01:32:52,400 --> 01:32:53,600
eventually. 
After all you thought you could 

1785
01:32:53,600 --> 01:32:56,700
get away, we call you anyway, 
evil, evil stuff. 

1786
01:32:57,900 --> 01:33:01,100
So Annie Mae traded protection 
from slavers for exposure, to 

1787
01:33:01,100 --> 01:33:02,800
brindled Ghouls and other 
Horrors. 

1788
01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:04,300
They couldn't swim in the river 
though. 

1789
01:33:04,300 --> 01:33:06,900
I suppose, they could fish in it
and the so-called queer fruits 

1790
01:33:06,900 --> 01:33:09,100
and strange spices are listed as
a good thing. 

1791
01:33:09,500 --> 01:33:12,500
So we'll take their word on it 
and some of the right are would 

1792
01:33:12,500 --> 01:33:16,100
have had some success, finding 
wealth, but those flesh, worm 

1793
01:33:16,100 --> 01:33:18,600
things, and, and this other list
of diseases. 

1794
01:33:18,600 --> 01:33:20,600
Again, there's so many of them, 
clearly. 

1795
01:33:20,600 --> 01:33:24,700
It's a lot more bad than good 
and there's no suggestion of 

1796
01:33:24,700 --> 01:33:27,900
ruin our technology or magic 
making Any significant kind of 

1797
01:33:27,907 --> 01:33:30,100
Headway here, despite our 
guesses, it might have maybe 

1798
01:33:30,100 --> 01:33:34,800
it's just not mentioned, but we 
don't have a lot to go on 

1799
01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:36,800
anything to think of positively 
there. 

1800
01:33:36,800 --> 01:33:39,200
And again, probably a lot of 
fear. 

1801
01:33:39,600 --> 01:33:41,400
They're trying to find a new 
permanent home. 

1802
01:33:41,400 --> 01:33:44,400
But would really any of this 
seem promising, would they have 

1803
01:33:44,400 --> 01:33:49,200
at any point then like this is 
going to work out, I don't know.

1804
01:33:49,500 --> 01:33:52,800
I don't think so. 
So more than a year, the rhoynar

1805
01:33:52,800 --> 01:33:56,500
struggle to survive in Safari 
has until the day, when a boat 

1806
01:33:56,500 --> 01:34:00,300
from Zama, At our arrived, a 
teen to find that every man 

1807
01:34:00,300 --> 01:34:05,000
woman and child in that haunted 
ruined City had vanished 

1808
01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:08,800
overnight. 
Then nymeria summoned, people 

1809
01:34:08,800 --> 01:34:13,500
back to the ships and set sail. 
Once again, was at the brindled,

1810
01:34:13,500 --> 01:34:17,200
man, you probably, it could be 
some other undocumented 

1811
01:34:17,200 --> 01:34:21,500
nightmare from the jungles or 
below the city, which we should 

1812
01:34:21,500 --> 01:34:24,300
always consider when there's a 
Lovecraft influence, which 

1813
01:34:24,300 --> 01:34:28,000
they're very much is in Eugene. 
Because Lovecraft love to have 

1814
01:34:28,000 --> 01:34:31,600
things kind of come up from 
below whether the depths of the 

1815
01:34:31,600 --> 01:34:36,100
Earth or from the sea. 
So strong possibility here to 

1816
01:34:36,100 --> 01:34:38,100
full towns on basileus. 
Point were destroyed and 

1817
01:34:38,100 --> 01:34:40,000
enslaved. 
All the population of Union was 

1818
01:34:40,000 --> 01:34:41,700
gone. 
Others ambassadors point and 

1819
01:34:41,700 --> 01:34:44,900
zammit are lost to disease and 
other raids from other slavers 

1820
01:34:44,900 --> 01:34:48,700
plus the brindled man, and 
whatever else we don't even have

1821
01:34:48,700 --> 01:34:52,400
names for earlier. 
I suggested maybe the wrong are 

1822
01:34:52,400 --> 01:34:54,500
didn't lose, half their 
remaining population, while ends

1823
01:34:54,500 --> 01:34:58,000
with Oreos, but when I lay it 
all out, Out like this sound, 

1824
01:34:58,000 --> 01:35:00,100
far-fetched at all? 
It almost sounds like Lee, maybe

1825
01:35:00,400 --> 01:35:02,800
actually it. 
It does sound likely all amend 

1826
01:35:02,800 --> 01:35:05,200
that. 
Let's say, it's likely and the 

1827
01:35:05,200 --> 01:35:09,100
rhoynar are the example in the 
histories, the world of Ice and 

1828
01:35:09,100 --> 01:35:11,400
Fire of what can go wrong in 
South Oreos. 

1829
01:35:11,400 --> 01:35:15,000
The phrase we have already seen 
how nymeria fared on its Shores,

1830
01:35:15,000 --> 01:35:17,700
when she attempted to settle her
people there appears in the 

1831
01:35:17,708 --> 01:35:20,600
world of Ice and Fire. 
It's difficult to imagine that 

1832
01:35:20,600 --> 01:35:23,200
many people argued with the 
decision to leave. 

1833
01:35:23,200 --> 01:35:26,100
I find it easier to imagine many
people arguing to leave sooner. 

1834
01:35:26,400 --> 01:35:30,000
Did they like, finally? 
Let's get the hell out of here. 

1835
01:35:30,500 --> 01:35:34,400
The green hell, out of here. 
Did any stay behind? 

1836
01:35:35,200 --> 01:35:38,200
I guess that out of so many 
thousands of people a few dead 

1837
01:35:39,200 --> 01:35:41,800
Probably not many though. 
We definitely have evidence of 

1838
01:35:41,800 --> 01:35:45,100
significant number staying 
behind and we should consider 

1839
01:35:45,100 --> 01:35:47,300
the inverse question. 
We asked at the beginning of the

1840
01:35:47,300 --> 01:35:50,500
episode but as a general 
question, not to specific 

1841
01:35:50,500 --> 01:35:54,200
locations, which is did any of 
the locals go with them, the any

1842
01:35:54,200 --> 01:35:57,800
people join the rhoynar? 
I think that would be appealing,

1843
01:35:57,800 --> 01:36:00,600
I take it out as with Oreos. 
Yeah, get the hell out of there.

1844
01:36:00,600 --> 01:36:02,700
Get again, get the green hell 
out of there. 

1845
01:36:03,000 --> 01:36:06,100
How cool would it be if nymeria,
Had A brindled man among her 

1846
01:36:06,100 --> 01:36:11,000
bodyguards or brindled woman? 
Alone or with new friends, it 

1847
01:36:11,000 --> 01:36:14,200
was audio sutorius and to the 
West. 

1848
01:36:14,200 --> 01:36:20,200
They went among the islands, 
we're told quote for the next 

1849
01:36:20,200 --> 01:36:21,800
three years. 
The rhoynar wandered, the 

1850
01:36:21,800 --> 01:36:23,400
southern Seas seeking a new 
home. 

1851
01:36:24,100 --> 01:36:27,400
So, it seems that the dream of 
making a new home on their own 

1852
01:36:27,400 --> 01:36:30,300
was set aside because by 
restoring their ships West, they

1853
01:36:30,300 --> 01:36:33,300
were headed towards lands, long,
claimed by others. 

1854
01:36:34,000 --> 01:36:36,100
Given it said, this span of 
their Journey took about three 

1855
01:36:36,100 --> 01:36:37,900
years. 
That's a good amount of time for

1856
01:36:37,900 --> 01:36:39,000
some interesting. 
To happen. 

1857
01:36:39,000 --> 01:36:41,500
But in terms of an entire 
population living somewhere, 

1858
01:36:41,500 --> 01:36:46,900
it's not that long however it is
that long in another sets which 

1859
01:36:47,200 --> 01:36:48,900
is with regard to their 
population. 

1860
01:36:49,100 --> 01:36:52,200
Remember that they'd have had a 
lot of young teenagers too young

1861
01:36:52,200 --> 01:36:54,700
to fight in the wars vs. 
Bulgaria but close. 

1862
01:36:55,000 --> 01:36:58,200
So now they'd be of age they 
have come of age during these 

1863
01:36:58,200 --> 01:37:01,700
Journeys. 
However, again, Lex Luthor EOS, 

1864
01:37:01,800 --> 01:37:04,700
these new locations didn't work 
out either and people died, but 

1865
01:37:04,700 --> 01:37:07,300
a lot less people died and in 
less creepy ways. 

1866
01:37:07,300 --> 01:37:11,000
They still Face slavery, but 
they didn't have to face 

1867
01:37:11,000 --> 01:37:14,300
anything near as bad as brindled
man, or basilisks, or wyverns, 

1868
01:37:14,300 --> 01:37:17,200
or even wore, really, they got a
reprieve from all those things. 

1869
01:37:17,200 --> 01:37:19,900
With very few exceptions 
slavery, being one of them, 

1870
01:37:19,900 --> 01:37:22,900
which is probably the worst of 
all those things but still 

1871
01:37:23,000 --> 01:37:24,600
getting rid of all that other 
stuff is nice. 

1872
01:37:25,300 --> 01:37:27,300
You may notice I didn't mention 
them getting a break from 

1873
01:37:27,300 --> 01:37:28,900
horrible. 
Deadly diseases, though. 

1874
01:37:28,900 --> 01:37:30,600
Yeah, they didn't get that 
break. 

1875
01:37:30,600 --> 01:37:33,900
At least not yet nathe Northwest
of Seth. 

1876
01:37:33,900 --> 01:37:38,300
Aureus in the summer sea lies, 
the mysterious island of naath. 

1877
01:37:38,600 --> 01:37:41,500
Known to the Ancients as the I 
love butterflies. 

1878
01:37:41,900 --> 01:37:45,600
The people native to the island 
are a beautiful and gentle race 

1879
01:37:45,600 --> 01:37:50,300
with round flat faces. 
Dusky skin and large soft Amber 

1880
01:37:50,300 --> 01:37:54,700
eyes off deflect with gold. 
The peaceful people manaphy are 

1881
01:37:54,700 --> 01:37:57,500
called by seafarers. 
For they will not fight. 

1882
01:37:57,500 --> 01:38:02,000
Even in defense of their homes 
and persons, then Athey do not 

1883
01:38:02,000 --> 01:38:05,300
kill, not even Beasts of the 
field and wood. 

1884
01:38:06,000 --> 01:38:10,900
They eat fruit, not flesh and 
make music not war. 

1885
01:38:11,300 --> 01:38:12,400
Now the great. 
Right. 

1886
01:38:12,700 --> 01:38:14,700
Well, if we take a look at where
it is, extremely far from 

1887
01:38:14,700 --> 01:38:18,800
Westeros but not really that far
from sutorius, that's a problem.

1888
01:38:19,500 --> 01:38:22,400
Missandei of course, the most 
famous of the characters from 

1889
01:38:22,400 --> 01:38:24,700
nathe. 
She is brilliant with languages 

1890
01:38:24,700 --> 01:38:27,500
and diplomacy in particular but 
really she's just brilliant in 

1891
01:38:27,500 --> 01:38:32,400
general, barristan thinks of her
quote, 11 years of age. 

1892
01:38:32,400 --> 01:38:35,600
Yet missandei is as clever as 
half the men at the table and 

1893
01:38:35,700 --> 01:38:38,700
Wiser than all of them, it's 
easy to forget that she's only 

1894
01:38:38,700 --> 01:38:43,000
11 years old and 10 when we meet
her, because her HBO parallel is

1895
01:38:43,000 --> 01:38:46,800
played by an adult woman and 
quite well, you know, be easier 

1896
01:38:46,800 --> 01:38:49,100
to remember the original 
missandei from the books. 

1897
01:38:49,100 --> 01:38:53,000
If Natalie Emanuel was a poor 
actress or if they chosen 

1898
01:38:53,000 --> 01:38:56,200
someone else who was poor 
actors, but Natalie, a manual 

1899
01:38:56,200 --> 01:38:58,600
doesn't have golden eyes either.
So it's easy to forget that. 

1900
01:38:59,000 --> 01:39:01,900
It's hard to hear those 
mentioned and not think of the 

1901
01:39:01,900 --> 01:39:04,600
children of the Forest, right? 
By the end of A Dance with 

1902
01:39:04,608 --> 01:39:07,400
Dragons barristan describes her 
as a forlorn. 

1903
01:39:07,400 --> 01:39:11,200
Little Ghost sad, right? 
Everyone else is off searching 

1904
01:39:11,200 --> 01:39:15,000
for Daenerys or getting ready 
for war and she's this very 

1905
01:39:15,000 --> 01:39:17,700
small girl all by herself in the
Royal Apartments. 

1906
01:39:18,400 --> 01:39:21,100
I expect you'll be reunited with
Danny soon enough though. 

1907
01:39:22,700 --> 01:39:24,600
Interestingly, she doesn't want 
to go back home. 

1908
01:39:24,700 --> 01:39:27,700
Indicates her people don't have 
much in the way of Defense 

1909
01:39:28,600 --> 01:39:31,700
originally missandei was taken 
by slavers from, of course, the 

1910
01:39:31,708 --> 01:39:33,600
Basilisk Isles and she fears 
that. 

1911
01:39:33,600 --> 01:39:35,300
If she goes back there it'll 
happen again. 

1912
01:39:35,900 --> 01:39:38,800
And if you look where Nathan is 
on the map you'll see again, 

1913
01:39:38,800 --> 01:39:42,300
it's not far from the basilisks.
She must have been very young 

1914
01:39:43,000 --> 01:39:45,600
and she was probably captured 
with her family because three of

1915
01:39:45,600 --> 01:39:49,100
her brothers, were taken and put
into training to be unsullied. 

1916
01:39:49,500 --> 01:39:53,000
Let that sink in a minute, think
of the unsullied, and their 

1917
01:39:53,000 --> 01:39:57,400
brutal training, and how violent
they are taught to be. 

1918
01:39:57,600 --> 01:40:00,700
And these nathie are the 
peaceful people. 

1919
01:40:00,700 --> 01:40:04,000
They're basically a culture of 
vegan pacifists. 

1920
01:40:04,800 --> 01:40:07,500
How do you turn a that into a 
brutal Warrior? 

1921
01:40:07,800 --> 01:40:10,300
Yeah, one of the Three Brothers 
is unnamed. 

1922
01:40:10,300 --> 01:40:12,800
He didn't make get through the 
harsh training, the other two 

1923
01:40:12,900 --> 01:40:17,200
Masa door and Marcel and dead. 
Normally two out of every three 

1924
01:40:17,200 --> 01:40:20,200
boys died during the process. 
But in this case, two out of 

1925
01:40:20,208 --> 01:40:23,500
three survived, so they actually
beat the odds, even though it 

1926
01:40:23,500 --> 01:40:27,700
sounds really sad. 
Both took their old names back 

1927
01:40:27,800 --> 01:40:29,800
when they regain their freedom. 
Of course, they weren't called 

1928
01:40:29,800 --> 01:40:33,300
Masa door and Marcel and while 
they were in control of the 

1929
01:40:33,300 --> 01:40:37,600
ghiscari and like others, when 
freed by Queen Danny, they 

1930
01:40:37,600 --> 01:40:41,000
stayed with her must master has 
stayed with the unsullied 

1931
01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:43,700
completely but was killed by the
sons of the harpy, in one of 

1932
01:40:43,708 --> 01:40:47,500
their many strikes on Danny's 
people missandei web for him and

1933
01:40:47,500 --> 01:40:50,200
we hope she won't have to weep 
for her other brother at some 

1934
01:40:50,200 --> 01:40:52,700
point. 
But we are braced for that 

1935
01:40:52,700 --> 01:40:56,800
because this is A Song of Ice 
and Fire and Sellin will be in 

1936
01:40:56,800 --> 01:40:58,700
danger. 
He joined one of the three 

1937
01:40:58,700 --> 01:41:02,200
companies of freedmen formed in 
Marine who are all very loyal to

1938
01:41:02,200 --> 01:41:06,000
Daenerys, but not unsullied. 
He was at first a trainer. 

1939
01:41:06,500 --> 01:41:09,100
Something I imagine in Sully, 
would be really good at no 

1940
01:41:09,100 --> 01:41:11,300
training. 
He could put them through would 

1941
01:41:11,300 --> 01:41:14,900
be as harsh as what he went 
through and every single person 

1942
01:41:14,900 --> 01:41:18,000
being trained would know that, 
they'd be aware that he's gone 

1943
01:41:18,000 --> 01:41:21,800
through much worse for dead 
certain, they would know that 

1944
01:41:21,900 --> 01:41:25,200
and that respect carried over as
we see Marcy. 

1945
01:41:25,400 --> 01:41:28,600
Ellen is named commander of the 
mothers men. 

1946
01:41:28,600 --> 01:41:31,500
The company he trains, so he 
training them and I guess along 

1947
01:41:31,500 --> 01:41:33,600
the way they gained so much 
respect for him that they named 

1948
01:41:33,600 --> 01:41:37,000
him their leader. 
He is part of bear Stearns war 

1949
01:41:37,000 --> 01:41:39,400
council near the end of A Dance 
with Dragons as they're 

1950
01:41:39,400 --> 01:41:41,900
preparing to assault. 
The slavers missandei 

1951
01:41:41,900 --> 01:41:44,000
suggestions for barristan 
regarding bribing, the 

1952
01:41:44,000 --> 01:41:46,500
sellswords were important here 
as well and he thinks of how 

1953
01:41:46,500 --> 01:41:49,200
clever she is there. 
So neighs has a few key 

1954
01:41:49,200 --> 01:41:53,200
Representatives with an heiress.
We do know that the nathie 

1955
01:41:53,200 --> 01:41:57,200
before the Doom were not nearly 
as isolated as they are now. 

1956
01:41:57,200 --> 01:42:01,600
Before the Doom of valyria was 
restrained in rating nathe, 

1957
01:42:01,600 --> 01:42:04,800
which might seem odd because the
Larry was greedy for slaves and 

1958
01:42:04,800 --> 01:42:07,800
the nathie are considered prized
slaves because they're so 

1959
01:42:07,800 --> 01:42:09,800
peaceful. 
Is this a conundrum? 

1960
01:42:10,400 --> 01:42:12,300
Not exactly the really, really 
read good. 

1961
01:42:12,300 --> 01:42:16,500
Still do slave raids on nathe 
just not nearly as many as they 

1962
01:42:16,500 --> 01:42:20,800
would have. 
Because Well, there was another 

1963
01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:23,200
reason they like Nathan. 
They didn't want to disrupt this

1964
01:42:23,200 --> 01:42:27,000
industry which was the Navy silk
industry, which was apparently 

1965
01:42:27,000 --> 01:42:30,900
the best in the world at the 
time but slavery did destroy the

1966
01:42:30,900 --> 01:42:34,800
industry overtime by forcing the
nathie to live further inland 

1967
01:42:35,800 --> 01:42:38,300
They had a significant trade 
industry prior to the major 

1968
01:42:38,300 --> 01:42:40,800
increase in slavery. 
So, these slavery started to 

1969
01:42:40,800 --> 01:42:43,200
come from other places after the
Doom, because, like I said, 

1970
01:42:43,200 --> 01:42:46,700
valyria was kind of restrained. 
So the rhoynar would have come 

1971
01:42:46,700 --> 01:42:50,100
to nathe during the time that 
they were still more active in 

1972
01:42:50,100 --> 01:42:53,600
trade with The Outsiders. 
From the second throwing are 

1973
01:42:53,600 --> 01:42:55,700
pulled up in their ships. 
There would be reason for 

1974
01:42:55,700 --> 01:42:58,100
optimism, right? 
You got finely crafted sales, 

1975
01:42:58,100 --> 01:43:01,500
you got nice looking people, you
got more importantly, none of 

1976
01:43:01,500 --> 01:43:02,900
these nice-looking people are 
armed. 

1977
01:43:04,300 --> 01:43:06,300
Throughout this episode, we've 
tried to look through the eyes 

1978
01:43:06,300 --> 01:43:08,600
of the rhoynar. 
Tried to imagine what it might 

1979
01:43:08,600 --> 01:43:12,000
be like, we tried to tap into 
their perspective and we've 

1980
01:43:12,000 --> 01:43:16,200
talked a lot about fear and 
these sites would look way less 

1981
01:43:16,200 --> 01:43:17,300
scary than. 
So 30 is right. 

1982
01:43:17,300 --> 01:43:20,200
This might seem like Paradise by
comparison to what they just 

1983
01:43:20,200 --> 01:43:23,000
went through. 
I mean, you show up and these 

1984
01:43:23,000 --> 01:43:25,000
guys are just sitting there, 
eating fruit chilling in their 

1985
01:43:25,000 --> 01:43:27,300
well-made clothes. 
They probably like hammock some 

1986
01:43:27,300 --> 01:43:29,400
stuff to they, that's not scary 
at all. 

1987
01:43:29,400 --> 01:43:32,900
It's like hey this looks good. 
Some might be wary of a trap 

1988
01:43:32,900 --> 01:43:34,700
though. 
They'd be so Sighs from past 

1989
01:43:34,700 --> 01:43:36,800
experiences. 
It might seem too good to be 

1990
01:43:36,800 --> 01:43:42,800
true to some feeling relief 
would be a luxury not yet earned

1991
01:43:42,800 --> 01:43:46,600
too soon to declare Victory and 
they'd be right. 

1992
01:43:46,800 --> 01:43:50,400
This was not a safe haven. 
This was a new and terrible form

1993
01:43:50,400 --> 01:43:55,500
of Sorrow, Insidious in that it 
seemed like there was hope, but 

1994
01:43:55,500 --> 01:43:58,400
really, there never was, there 
was never a chance, this would 

1995
01:43:58,400 --> 01:44:02,800
work out many would have felt 
relief at finding a place that 

1996
01:44:02,800 --> 01:44:07,000
looked like A good home, it 
would be perfect thumb. 

1997
01:44:07,000 --> 01:44:10,000
It would seem that way. 
They would feel that hope but 

1998
01:44:10,000 --> 01:44:12,800
the pessimists would be right. 
No matter how peaceful and 

1999
01:44:12,800 --> 01:44:15,500
welcoming the natives are no 
matter, how idyllic the islands 

2000
01:44:15,500 --> 01:44:21,600
are its deadly there, who some 
evil humor looks in the very air

2001
01:44:21,600 --> 01:44:25,500
of this Fair Isle and all those 
who linger too long enough soon.

2002
01:44:25,500 --> 01:44:29,800
Succumb fever is the first sign 
of this plague, followed, by 

2003
01:44:29,800 --> 01:44:33,900
painful spasms that make it seem
as if victims are dancing. 

2004
01:44:34,000 --> 01:44:38,400
NG wildly and uncontrollably in 
the last stage, The Afflicted, 

2005
01:44:38,400 --> 01:44:42,900
sweat blood, and their flesh 
sloths from their bones. 

2006
01:44:43,300 --> 01:44:45,600
Okay? 
Maybe we've had enough of the 

2007
01:44:45,600 --> 01:44:48,900
disease's for one episode. 
The Rhine are at this time 

2008
01:44:48,900 --> 01:44:50,600
Surly. 
Agreed, amazing. 

2009
01:44:50,600 --> 01:44:52,400
Really, they survives with 
Oreos. 

2010
01:44:52,400 --> 01:44:55,500
Meaning surviving tattooed 
lizards giant, basilisks 

2011
01:44:55,500 --> 01:44:57,600
brindled ghouls wyverns and 
slavers. 

2012
01:44:57,900 --> 01:45:00,400
Those are nothing fear, the 
butterflies. 

2013
01:45:01,400 --> 01:45:04,400
And that's because some believe,
the butterflies of nathe 

2014
01:45:04,400 --> 01:45:07,500
transmit this disease. 
The slavers have learned only 

2015
01:45:07,500 --> 01:45:09,900
come at night, when the 
butterflies are asleep. 

2016
01:45:10,000 --> 01:45:13,900
So, the theory seems pretty 
strong given this should the 

2017
01:45:13,900 --> 01:45:17,600
Rhine are of known better. 
That appears fairly well, 

2018
01:45:17,600 --> 01:45:19,500
documented that Nathan is not a 
place. 

2019
01:45:19,500 --> 01:45:22,100
One can migrate to because of 
this sickness. 

2020
01:45:23,000 --> 01:45:25,800
This was something like seven 
centuries ago and maybe fewer 

2021
01:45:25,800 --> 01:45:29,000
people knew of this then and 
again, we have the issue of the 

2022
01:45:29,000 --> 01:45:31,100
inward facing rowing are so it 
does at least. 

2023
01:45:31,300 --> 01:45:34,700
That they would be ignorant of 
some of the problems facing 

2024
01:45:34,700 --> 01:45:37,900
other civilizations around the 
world, but valyria knew not to 

2025
01:45:37,907 --> 01:45:40,600
live there and the ghiscari 
before that many centuries 

2026
01:45:40,600 --> 01:45:43,500
earlier somehow the runner 
didn't get the memo though. 

2027
01:45:44,800 --> 01:45:48,800
But didn't the Navy tell them 
you got the nicest friendliest 

2028
01:45:48,800 --> 01:45:53,500
people and on the planet and 
they didn't tell them about the 

2029
01:45:53,600 --> 01:45:56,600
horrible death. 
That they'd all be facing soon. 

2030
01:45:57,000 --> 01:46:00,700
Maybe was a language barrier or 
maybe the nathie it's a cultural

2031
01:46:00,700 --> 01:46:04,500
reason they just see it as 
judgment from their God and 

2032
01:46:04,500 --> 01:46:06,200
they're not gonna interfere with
that process. 

2033
01:46:06,400 --> 01:46:09,700
You don't walk into court and 
start tearing things up as 

2034
01:46:09,700 --> 01:46:11,100
weird. 
Is that parallel seems that 

2035
01:46:11,100 --> 01:46:15,800
might have been how they saw it.
George r.r., Martin has this way

2036
01:46:15,800 --> 01:46:19,600
of giving us sad nuanced even in
his world building in this 

2037
01:46:19,600 --> 01:46:21,700
chapter in the runner Odyssey 
has a lot of at. 

2038
01:46:21,800 --> 01:46:24,400
This could have been a wonderful
Fusion of two cultures. 

2039
01:46:24,400 --> 01:46:27,500
They had a shared love of music 
and craftsmanship and may have 

2040
01:46:27,500 --> 01:46:31,100
gotten along well in the long 
term but the long-term simply 

2041
01:46:31,200 --> 01:46:34,700
Was impossible nymeria. 
This time wouldn't have had to 

2042
01:46:34,700 --> 01:46:37,300
encourage anyone even if it 
probably wasn't needed in the 

2043
01:46:37,300 --> 01:46:41,000
30s, but here it was a guarantee
despite how otherwise great the 

2044
01:46:41,000 --> 01:46:43,100
place was. 
When people start sweating blood

2045
01:46:43,100 --> 01:46:46,600
and their skin literally falls 
off, everyone knows it's time to

2046
01:46:46,600 --> 01:46:51,200
go. 
In my mind at least a few of the

2047
01:46:51,208 --> 01:46:54,400
nathie went with them, I doubt 
and I marry found any Warriors, 

2048
01:46:54,400 --> 01:46:57,800
like Masa door, arm are sellin 
who were only wears because they

2049
01:46:57,800 --> 01:46:59,300
were forced to be from what we 
know. 

2050
01:46:59,300 --> 01:47:02,400
The nathie don't have Fighters 
but maybe she had her own 

2051
01:47:02,400 --> 01:47:06,900
version of missandei. 
Some bright, talented advisor, 

2052
01:47:06,900 --> 01:47:10,600
or friend or maybe several of 
those that's my head. 

2053
01:47:10,600 --> 01:47:15,800
Canon, the Summer Isles, south 
of Westeros cradled and the Deep

2054
01:47:15,800 --> 01:47:18,700
Blue Waters of the summer, see 
the Summer Isles. 

2055
01:47:18,800 --> 01:47:22,900
S bask in the warm Southern Sun,
more than 50 islands, make up 

2056
01:47:22,900 --> 01:47:27,000
this verdant archipelago. 
Many so small a man could walk 

2057
01:47:27,000 --> 01:47:31,100
across them in an hour, but 
Jolla largest of the Isles. 

2058
01:47:31,100 --> 01:47:35,200
Stretch, his 200 Leagues. 
From tip to tip beneath its 

2059
01:47:35,200 --> 01:47:39,200
towering Green, Mountains of 
vast forests steaming jungles 

2060
01:47:39,200 --> 01:47:43,000
beaches of green and black sand,
Mighty, Rivers teeming with 

2061
01:47:43,000 --> 01:47:46,100
monstrous crocodiles and fertile
veils while on. 

2062
01:47:46,100 --> 01:47:50,300
Oh, and um, borrow the less than
half the size of Holla are each 

2063
01:47:50,300 --> 01:47:54,800
larger than all the stepstones 
combined, these three islands 

2064
01:47:54,800 --> 01:47:57,600
are home to more than 
nine-tenths of the peoples of 

2065
01:47:57,608 --> 01:48:01,300
the Isles. 
Flowers are 4,000 different 

2066
01:48:01,300 --> 01:48:05,200
sorts of Bloom in profusion on 
the Summer Isles, filling the 

2067
01:48:05,200 --> 01:48:08,500
air with their perfume, the 
trees are heavy with exotic 

2068
01:48:08,500 --> 01:48:11,500
fruits and a myriad of brightly 
colored birds. 

2069
01:48:11,500 --> 01:48:14,700
Flutter through the skies from 
their plumage, the summer 

2070
01:48:14,700 --> 01:48:16,900
Islanders, make their fabulous 
feathered. 

2071
01:48:16,900 --> 01:48:20,900
Cloaks beneath the green 
canopies of the rainforests 

2072
01:48:21,100 --> 01:48:25,800
prowse, spotted Panthers larger 
than any lion and packs of lean 

2073
01:48:25,800 --> 01:48:28,300
Red. 
Wolves tribes of monkeys. 

2074
01:48:28,300 --> 01:48:32,300
Swing through the branches of 
the trees above Apes around as 

2075
01:48:32,300 --> 01:48:34,900
well. 
The old red men of unburrow 

2076
01:48:34,900 --> 01:48:38,800
silver Pelt, from the mountains 
of Jolla night stalkers on 

2077
01:48:38,800 --> 01:48:42,200
Milano. 
The summer Islanders are a dark 

2078
01:48:42,200 --> 01:48:46,700
people, black of hair and eye 
with skins as brown as teak or 

2079
01:48:46,700 --> 01:48:50,700
as black as polished jet. 
Get long as quote of the episode

2080
01:48:50,700 --> 01:48:53,200
there. 
Yeah, I did that on purpose. 

2081
01:48:53,500 --> 01:48:55,700
It may not have been fully 
relevant, but I just like 

2082
01:48:55,700 --> 01:48:58,200
hearing the call duties quotes 
and I went with the long version

2083
01:48:58,200 --> 01:49:01,100
for that but it also fits 
because the summer islands and 

2084
01:49:01,100 --> 01:49:04,400
their people are a rather large 
story much larger than that of 

2085
01:49:04,407 --> 01:49:06,100
South Oreos or the Basilisk 
Isles. 

2086
01:49:06,100 --> 01:49:09,700
Are nathe probably as large as 
all three combined given the 

2087
01:49:09,700 --> 01:49:11,800
number of pages devoted them in 
the world of Ice and Fire this 

2088
01:49:11,800 --> 01:49:14,600
plays out. 
And though there are quite a few

2089
01:49:14,600 --> 01:49:17,400
amazing stories written and 
written in between the lines. 

2090
01:49:17,400 --> 01:49:20,400
As always, we find lots of that.
There was no real drama from 

2091
01:49:20,400 --> 01:49:23,900
them with regard to nymeria and 
the rhoynar for these reasons. 

2092
01:49:23,900 --> 01:49:26,500
A full treatment of the summer 
Islands will come in another 

2093
01:49:26,500 --> 01:49:30,000
episode, like gah. 
So it's just too big and too off

2094
01:49:30,000 --> 01:49:31,900
topic. 
The rhoynar were given a place 

2095
01:49:31,900 --> 01:49:35,200
to live called abbulu, and then 
the summer Islanders kind of 

2096
01:49:35,208 --> 01:49:38,900
just left them alone. 
As far as we can tell, the 

2097
01:49:38,900 --> 01:49:42,200
valyria was an issue. 
The the summer Islanders were 

2098
01:49:42,200 --> 01:49:44,900
wary of upsetting valyria. 
They do you don't want to make 

2099
01:49:44,900 --> 01:49:47,200
an enemy of valyria, and you 
still want to be able to trade 

2100
01:49:47,200 --> 01:49:50,400
with them, which is an important
factor in some Realms existence.

2101
01:49:50,400 --> 01:49:54,500
There are big trading culture, 
but as far as we can tell, 

2102
01:49:55,500 --> 01:49:58,300
surely they did trade with the 
rhoynar and interact with them. 

2103
01:49:58,300 --> 01:50:01,000
In other ways like small scale, 
maybe some marriages here and 

2104
01:50:01,000 --> 01:50:03,800
there, but there isn't much 
documentation of that and it 

2105
01:50:03,800 --> 01:50:05,200
probably just went fairly 
smoothly. 

2106
01:50:05,200 --> 01:50:08,000
We don't hear of any great 
animosity or culture shock or 

2107
01:50:08,100 --> 01:50:11,000
Recurring ill-will. 
And again this is probably 

2108
01:50:11,000 --> 01:50:14,600
because in part because of how 
the cultures were they both were

2109
01:50:14,600 --> 01:50:16,500
like that. 
It's kind of how they are, but 

2110
01:50:16,500 --> 01:50:18,200
also because they probably knew 
each other. 

2111
01:50:18,300 --> 01:50:20,900
Before this, the summer, 
Islanders have been trading all 

2112
01:50:20,900 --> 01:50:23,100
over the world for eons. 
So there's no way they didn't 

2113
01:50:23,100 --> 01:50:26,100
know about the Rhine in the 
Rhine. 

2114
01:50:26,100 --> 01:50:28,800
Are they certainly traded with 
them in the past. 

2115
01:50:29,400 --> 01:50:33,400
So, again, like nathe at first, 
it would have seemed on the 

2116
01:50:33,400 --> 01:50:35,700
surface, like, this could have 
worked out great, given the 

2117
01:50:35,700 --> 01:50:38,500
similarity between the people 
somewhere Islanders were Ancient

2118
01:50:38,500 --> 01:50:40,400
is a culture, they were 
well-traveled. 

2119
01:50:40,400 --> 01:50:44,900
There were you know intelligent 
had a deep history, they hated 

2120
01:50:44,900 --> 01:50:49,000
slavery and the slavers new to 
mostly stay away from the summer

2121
01:50:49,000 --> 01:50:51,200
Islands because the summer 
around is a really good at 

2122
01:50:51,200 --> 01:50:54,400
defending themselves. 
In fact, it's said that a lot of

2123
01:50:54,400 --> 01:50:57,800
slave ships run from the summer 
allender Swan ships. 

2124
01:50:59,200 --> 01:51:02,600
And as it was with nathe, the 
exchange of Art and music and 

2125
01:51:02,600 --> 01:51:05,700
other forms of culture was 
probably robust. 

2126
01:51:05,700 --> 01:51:08,100
There's probably a lot there on 
both sides for the others to 

2127
01:51:08,100 --> 01:51:14,200
like a voodoo, a small desolate.
I'll Northwest of olano served, 

2128
01:51:14,200 --> 01:51:17,600
for more than two years as home 
to nymeria and our followers, 

2129
01:51:17,700 --> 01:51:20,700
the princes of the aisles 
refused to allow her to settle 

2130
01:51:20,700 --> 01:51:23,600
on the larger islands. 
For fear of waking, the wrath of

2131
01:51:23,600 --> 01:51:27,900
valyria as most of my areas. 
People were female, abbulu 

2132
01:51:27,900 --> 01:51:31,000
became known as As the I love 
women a name. 

2133
01:51:31,100 --> 01:51:36,000
It still Bears today. 
So, what went wrong, despite the

2134
01:51:36,008 --> 01:51:38,500
reputation of the summer 
Islanders and that anti-slavery 

2135
01:51:38,500 --> 01:51:41,000
stance that I mentioned, the 
Isle of women was still rated 

2136
01:51:41,000 --> 01:51:43,100
for slaves. 
I guess people eventually knew 

2137
01:51:43,100 --> 01:51:45,900
that that Island didn't have any
Swan ships. 

2138
01:51:45,900 --> 01:51:49,900
So there were running are there 
for the pickings somehow they 

2139
01:51:49,900 --> 01:51:52,700
found out. 
There were still some issues 

2140
01:51:52,700 --> 01:51:55,500
with the disease as well. 
But nothing nearly as bad as 

2141
01:51:55,500 --> 01:51:57,500
with Oreos, let alone nathe 
yeah. 

2142
01:51:57,900 --> 01:52:01,000
Add those things together and 
we're getting somewhere and then

2143
01:52:01,000 --> 01:52:03,900
there's a third problem added on
top of that. 

2144
01:52:04,400 --> 01:52:07,500
If you're wondering, why abbulu 
was even available for 

2145
01:52:07,500 --> 01:52:10,400
colonization, considering how 
ancient the summer Islanders are

2146
01:52:10,500 --> 01:52:14,700
as a city as a people, you're on
the right track it wasn't a good

2147
01:52:14,700 --> 01:52:16,800
place to live. 
It was crappy it's not scary 

2148
01:52:16,800 --> 01:52:21,500
like the 30s but it had the very
mundane In. 

2149
01:52:21,508 --> 01:52:25,600
But major problem of not being 
able to support the population, 

2150
01:52:25,800 --> 01:52:29,300
simply put there wasn't enough 
food, the fertile soil was 

2151
01:52:29,300 --> 01:52:33,000
lacking, there was only a small 
amounts of that this time, we do

2152
01:52:33,000 --> 01:52:36,200
know that some of the rhoynar 
chose to stay behind apparently,

2153
01:52:36,200 --> 01:52:38,700
a few thousand. 
With most of the population 

2154
01:52:38,700 --> 01:52:42,500
leaving, well, maybe with a few 
who'll, stay behind a few 

2155
01:52:42,500 --> 01:52:45,200
thousand stay behind there was 
enough food for them. 

2156
01:52:45,400 --> 01:52:48,700
It wasn't enough for the whole 
group, but paring it down, it 

2157
01:52:48,700 --> 01:52:51,500
worked. 
So it seems the rest could 

2158
01:52:51,500 --> 01:52:53,500
manage with the available 
farming and fishing, and 

2159
01:52:53,500 --> 01:52:55,500
hunting. 
And now abbulu is called the 

2160
01:52:55,500 --> 01:52:59,200
Isle of women because we're in 
our population, was mostly 

2161
01:52:59,200 --> 01:53:00,500
women. 
So the few thousand stayed 

2162
01:53:00,500 --> 01:53:04,100
behind most of those were women,
though, it's doubted by many 

2163
01:53:04,100 --> 01:53:07,300
maesters the summer. 
Islanders told Lomas long 

2164
01:53:07,300 --> 01:53:10,900
Strider that their ancestors, 
founded cities, on the western 

2165
01:53:10,900 --> 01:53:15,500
coasts of South Oreos, quote 
only to have them overwhelmed 

2166
01:53:15,500 --> 01:53:19,400
and destroyed by the same forces
that wiped out later ghiscari. 

2167
01:53:19,400 --> 01:53:22,900
And They're in settlements on 
that perilous continent. 

2168
01:53:23,000 --> 01:53:25,700
I tend to believe the summer 
Islanders though especially 

2169
01:53:25,700 --> 01:53:28,800
given that they have some of the
best ships and most interest in 

2170
01:53:28,800 --> 01:53:32,200
Exploration. 
Plus this other quote, there are

2171
01:53:32,200 --> 01:53:35,900
certain indications that 
explorers from coach May well 

2172
01:53:35,900 --> 01:53:38,800
have mapped the Western coasts 
of South Oreos, to the very 

2173
01:53:38,800 --> 01:53:42,200
bottom of the world and 
discovered strange lands and 

2174
01:53:42,200 --> 01:53:46,600
stranger people's far to the 
South or across the endless 

2175
01:53:46,600 --> 01:53:50,300
Waters of the sunset sea, but 
the truth of these These Tales 

2176
01:53:50,300 --> 01:53:53,500
is known only to the princes of 
the aisles and the captain's who

2177
01:53:53,500 --> 01:53:55,700
serve them. 
So they had to leave again. 

2178
01:53:57,000 --> 01:53:59,000
Establishing a new home in a 
place without others. 

2179
01:53:59,000 --> 01:54:00,700
Didn't work. 
Doritos was a fail. 

2180
01:54:00,800 --> 01:54:03,600
The available options for living
with others to this point in 

2181
01:54:03,600 --> 01:54:06,800
work, either nathe some rounds. 
Nope. 

2182
01:54:07,000 --> 01:54:11,400
So the remaining Choice was even
more against their existing 

2183
01:54:11,400 --> 01:54:13,400
sensibilities and their sense of
Independence. 

2184
01:54:13,900 --> 01:54:16,700
It had been part of their 
culture for so long, but they 

2185
01:54:16,700 --> 01:54:21,000
were out of choices. 
This is a different kind of fear

2186
01:54:21,000 --> 01:54:23,800
of the unknown, the fear of 
putting yourself. 

2187
01:54:23,800 --> 01:54:27,100
In someone else's power, the 
fear of living, or someone 

2188
01:54:27,100 --> 01:54:32,100
else's laws, the fear of 
intentionally joining a new 

2189
01:54:32,100 --> 01:54:35,300
society that you're unfamiliar 
with as a minority. 

2190
01:54:37,100 --> 01:54:40,100
And the fear of running out of 
options though, existed as well.

2191
01:54:40,100 --> 01:54:43,100
The fear of not getting a chance
to test those other options. 

2192
01:54:43,100 --> 01:54:46,500
If this one fails to fear of if 
Dorne doesn't work. 

2193
01:54:46,700 --> 01:54:48,500
Are we stuck here? 
We were able to leave. 

2194
01:54:48,500 --> 01:54:51,400
So thorough, as we were able to 
leave Nate we were able to leave

2195
01:54:51,400 --> 01:54:55,600
the summer Islands but maybe we 
won't be able to leave if this 

2196
01:54:55,600 --> 01:54:59,700
one fails. 
So Lots of things to make them 

2197
01:54:59,700 --> 01:55:01,700
anxious, lots of things to make 
them scared. 

2198
01:55:02,100 --> 01:55:05,100
Well, as we know those fears 
were eventually put to rest. 

2199
01:55:05,100 --> 01:55:08,500
It did work out and dramatically
so, but they didn't know that at

2200
01:55:08,500 --> 01:55:10,400
the time, they didn't know what 
they were getting into. 

2201
01:55:11,300 --> 01:55:15,500
So it wasn't easy, but it was a 
great story and we'll tell that 

2202
01:55:15,500 --> 01:55:18,600
one in a future episode of 
history of Westeros podcast, the

2203
01:55:18,600 --> 01:55:22,600
story of nymeria in the running 
are coming to Dorne and becoming

2204
01:55:22,900 --> 01:55:26,400
a permanent and remembered and 
Lasting part of that culture. 

2205
01:55:26,500 --> 01:55:29,800
It's still said to this day. 
Day, the people of the running 

2206
01:55:29,800 --> 01:55:32,800
are still mentioned in the title
for king of the iron throne. 

2207
01:55:33,900 --> 01:55:37,500
I have a confession to make. 
I normally say the word wyvern 

2208
01:55:37,500 --> 01:55:40,800
not with Vern, but I actually 
said we've earned this whole 

2209
01:55:40,800 --> 01:55:45,200
episode Just For The Old Man and
the wyvern pun. 

2210
01:55:46,200 --> 01:55:52,100
The things I do for puns. 
Shay is the best especially for 

2211
01:55:52,100 --> 01:55:55,200

but also for all the production 

2212
01:55:55,200 --> 01:55:57,800
work, the video editing and a 
lot of other things you see 

2213
