The tale of three city states continues as Sparta maintains their seizure of Thebes while Athens looks to reclaim their maritime dominance. Persia has war on many fronts and ever-worsening palace intrigue, making their interference or lack thereof uncertain. While the old kings Agesilaus and Artaxerxes live on, a new generation of leaders, warriors, orators and innovators are emerging throughout Greece. The continuing stories of Chabrias, Parysatis, Iphicrates and Tirabazus - featuring their best ASOIAF counterparts - plus new characters added to the mix.

Sent to be a page for Lord Beric Dondarrion at the age of 7, Edric Dayne was eventually raised to squire. Edric clearly took to the Lightning Lord, perhaps even looked up to him. Even after his father died, Edric stayed with Lord Beric, Even after Lord Beric died… Edric stayed with Lord Beric. He’s brave, shy and has a destiny difficult to divine due to his age and the 5 year gap. Nevertheless, he is Lord of Starfall, a house with compelling mysteries both ancient and recent.

No known people live further west than House Farwynd of Lonely Light, and few houses if any are considered as strange. Even other Ironborn regard them as mad and tell stories that sound like a Northern house. There’s talk of Farwynd skinchangers, connecting them to killer whales, walruses, sea lions and more… not to mention rumors of Farwynds breeding with seals to make selkies. They are the Sunset Skinchanger Raiders of Westeros, and they even have a second branch on Great Wyk, giving us much to dive into.HoW Audience Survey - bit.ly/howsurveyBonus Eps & More - patreon.com/historyofwesterosShirts & Stickers - historyofwesteros.threadless.comwww.historyofwesteros.comIntro/Maps - klaradox.deFacebook Group - bit.ly/howfbDiscord - bit.ly/howdiscordNina - goodqueenaly.tumblr.com/

Athens, Sparta, Thebes, and their neighbors fought a seemingly endless series of civil wars worthy of Westeros. But just like the War of Five Kings, Greece should have been more concerned with uniting against a greater threat massing to the North - one capable of conquering or enslaving them all. This is a grand story of deeds as infamous as the Red Wedding, as heroically selfless as Dunk or Brienne, and as disturbing as the worst Targaryen incest or Bolton torture.

Prince Rhaegar believed his son was the Prince that Was Promised, that his was the song of ice and fire. But he was not the first to hear those ancient tones, not even the first in his family. In this one we consider who knows the dreams and prophecies now and centuries ago. We’ll compare different prophecies, histories, tales, songs, religious beliefs etc and see which elements are overlapping and which are unique.

Boltons, Freys, Manderlys and more all packed into a snowbound Winterfell is a recipe for more than cannibal pies. It seems half the inhabitants of the castle hate each other, while the other half are probably just better at hiding it. Either way, there have been several murders. The collective rage and paranoia of the inhabitants increases with each successive death, increasing the odds of another killing. We’ll look into each murder to find the culprits and their motives. Is someone trying to set these houses against each other? Is there more to it?

Lying far to the south of Westeros and Essos are the Summer Isles, representing the most southwesterly peoples of the known world. Famed for their shipbuilding and navigation skills, the Summer Islanders are also a unique culture in part due to their relative isolation and favorable geography. Despite this, they have a history with Valyria, Sothoryos and places unknown to Westeros. They might be the only culture we know of without memory or evidence of the Long Night, and they’ve come up at key times in the story for Sam, Daenerys and others. Notable characters include Jalabhar Xho, Quhuru Mo, Kojja Mo, Xhondo Dhoru, Black Balaq, Tal Toraq, Chataya, Alayaya, Alleras/Sarella Sand, and Bellegere Otherys.

Though not an ancient House, the Freys are powerful and prominent in plotlines of all kinds, usually for all the red reasons. Wrong reasons, rather.

They began as King’s men on a mission - what seemed a clear cut case of heroes vs. villains. Even after the death of King Robert, the Brotherhood Without Banners remained a model of honor and duty, serving the common folk instead. But time and deprivation wore on them, and they slowly lost their sense of purpose, justice… and their humanity. Quite literally in 2 cases. This is their tragic, surprisingly supernatural story from Beric to Stoneheart, with theories on what’s to come for this outlaw band captained by the undead and guided by prophecy.

(fully scripted) Barristan's finest hour, or was it? He's not sure saving Aerys was a good thing, but it sure was amazing. In many ways this story is more about Aerys and Tywin than the great white knight. This is the event that pushed Aerys into true madness, and led to the hiring of Varys.

The years following the death of the Old Man of the North were marked by instability at Winterfell as several of Cregan Stark’s sons ruled in short succession. One of those sons was Lord Barthogan, who came to be known as Barth Blacksword. His stint as ruler of Winterfell was a turning point in that era, and he faced a rebellion from Skagos. Was he called Blacksword because he wielded Ice in battle? Did he face unicorn riding cannibal warriors? A northern deep-dive!

The very night Daenerys Targaryen was born one of the worst storms in living memory struck. This earned her the nickname Stormborn, a moniker that has spread far and wide alongside news of her deeds, one she has carried before her like a standard. We delve into the story behind the legend, and the details just before her birth - her mother Queen Rhaella’s escape to Dragonstone before the Sack of King’s Landing and her own escape alongside her brother just ahead of Stannis Baratheon.

We break down what the phrase means for Dany, and as a worldbuilding element associated with Asshai-by-the-Shadow. Let’s shed some light on the Shadowlands. We’ve got masks, magic, Mirri Maz Duur, Marwyn, and more. Rize: https://rize.io/?via=WESTEROS & code WESTEROS3 for 25% off payments within the first 3 months!

Scotland’s late medieval period was a Game of Thrones-like environment with powerful families fighting and scheming for power. A particularly notorious event - The Black Dinner - inspired GRRM to write the Red Wedding. We’ll examine all the gory details, politics, battles and intrigues plus other parallels beyond Stark, Frey and Lannister to characters like Bittersteel, Blackfish, Aenys Blackfyre and Unwin Peake.

What happened with Lyanna and Rhaegar before the Tower of Joy? Why did he kidnap her… or why did she elope with him, if that was the case? Did he make her his second bride? If so, why?
