The The Despite his relative youth, King Baylor had ruled for 10 years.

Those who lived under his rule experienced to reign unlike any other before or since.

The unique figure in unusual times, who came to the throne in part thanks to the death of

his brother, and that brother had passed at the age of only 18.

Baylor's death remains a bit of a mystery.

In some ways, it's not surprising.

After all, the man starved himself regularly.

On the other hand, this is a man who survived, walking all the way to Dorn and back, and all those vipers.

On the other, other hand, there's a lot of reason to believe he was murdered that the starvation made for a convincing cover story.

And it may have been his hand who did the deed, his own uncle, Vassaris, who became king after him.

But why would Viseras, who ruled capably his hand for 20-ish years, kill his nephew after so much time?

Did Vassaris become ambitious later in life?

Eh, it's...

Or did Baylor's policy decisions threaten to destabilize the realm? Was there a compelling

reason rather than ambition? Yes, there is evidence Baylor was on a downward slope with

regards to his mental health. Some of his decisions were downright insane, and he wasn't a

fan of other religions. Now, Kinslaying is one of the worst crimes in Westeros, but if Vassarist

thought he was preventing a civil war or a holy war of sorts, well, that's a lot more interesting

than regicide for reasons of personal gain. However, Vesaris is not the only possible

culprit, so we'll go over the other suspects. But this is not a whodunit episode, only it's just

part of the episode, not just because his death was maybe not even a murder at all. Though 10

years is a substantial reign, arguably Baylor has had a bigger impact in Westro's since his death as compared to while he was alive.
