  • The Tattered Prince, Captain of the Windblown, is framed by George as a mystery for the reader to see if they can puzzle them out. Perhaps Tatters is another lost Westerosi hiding behind a fake identity, another puzzle to solve. Another Pretty Meris and Brienne five year gap situation. Challenge accepted George! I will be taking George's bait and figuring out who this Tattered Prince really is.

    I just think virtually every good point you make apply to Ser Barristan just as good, if not better. He literally sheds his cloak to change his identity in our story, when he travels with Strong Belwas. He's also a white haired old man with trouble sleeping. Tatters refers to Quent and the rest as his "3 lads", just as Barristan has 3 squires which he calls lads... Idk, i kinda feel he fits in a bit better, but that's my opinion

  • @EPYHDA1
    @EPYHDA1 Před 3 lety +46

    The way Pentos is dealing with their princes reminded me of Robert Sheckley's "A Ticket to Tranai"... "Borg reached for the Presidential Seal, started to remove it from his neck - It exploded suddenly and violently. Goodman found himself staring in horror at Borg's red, ruined head. The Supreme President tottered for a moment, then slid to the floor. Melith took off his jacket and threw it over Borg's head. Goodman backed to a chair and fell into it. His mouth opened, but no words came out. "It's really a pity," Melith said. "He was so near the end of his term. I warned him against licensing that new spaceport. The citizens won't approve, I told him. But he was sure they would like to have two spaceports. Well, he was wrong." "Do you mean - I mean - how - what -" "All government officials," Melith explained, "wear the badge of office, which contains a traditional amount of tessium, an explosive you may have heard of. The charge is radio-controlled from the Citizens Booth. Any citizen has access to the Booth, for the purpose of expressing his disapproval of the government." Melith sighed. "This will go down as a permanent black mark against poor Borg's record." "You let the people express their disapproval by blowing up officials?" Goodman croaked, appalled. "It's the only way that means anything," said Melith "Check and balance. Just as the people are in our hands, so we are in the people's hands."

  • @tomassadil324
    @tomassadil324 Před rokem +6

    I think it's Maegor Targaryen.
    i mean to be named prince of Pentos you have to have blood of Valyria in you. Also Tattered Prince speaks in high valyrian. which I don't think even essosi Valyrians do, but I might be wrong.
    Even their age would give or less (It was said he is 62, Maegor would be 67. Knowing how much incognito Tatters is, why not even lie about his age a bit?).
    Also the fact he always talks about what kind of rogue he is, I think it truly is the son of Brightflame.

    • @nickdentoom1173
      @nickdentoom1173 Před rokem +3

      I don't think its Maegor, but i do think Tatters can be related to Aerion Brightflame.
      Aerion stayed in Lys for a few years. It is possible that he fathered some children while living there. He served with the Second Sons for a time while in exile.
      I always assumed Tatters was a Targaryen Bastard... so he possibily is the son of one.

    Another well done video! I am always impressed by your knowledge and the way you are able to figure things out. I believe you are absolutely correct! Off topic, I noticed one quote in your video “Oswell Whent with his BLACK humor...”. This is another clue to the theory that Oswell “took the black” and is indeed Qhorin Halfhand. Reread the Halfhand’s physical description in the books...everything about him is grey. Well if you took The White and later on took the Black of course GRRM would describe him as grey. And then there is the mention that Lady Whent is a friend of the watch, by Yorin. And most of all telling is at TOJ Whent is sharpening his sword. I don’t believe it is a coincidence that some of his last words to Jon are Is your sword sharp? And a few pages before the Halfhand looks at his sword and feels the edge with his finger...to see if it is sharp.

    This was a great video. Nice comparisons. I often wonder if the five-year gap was the right direction to go. GRRM does small little flashbacks throughout his chapters, so I think he could've accomplished the same thing. And five years would make a lot of sense regarding 'Jedi training', especially for Arya's story. Jon's and Bran's might be a little trickier, but he could've pulled it off. I just wonder if it put him in more of a bind not doing the time gap, in regards to finishing the books. I still love what we got, but it's fun to ponder what might have been.

    One thing I find particularly strange is the use of wildfire vs wild fire. Wild fire is used to describe the Tragedy at Summerhall but it seems most fans interpret it as wildfire, the substance.

    I wonder if alot of the theories of so many characters masquerading under false identities are actually real
    If so, wulld it fit the story to have so many false identities? Is it to send a message present in the story?
    Id love an analysis on this, and the many, many theories that fit under this umbrella. Some are obviously likely true, Jon being a targ etc
    But there's also dany being a dragonseed, roose being a vampire, quaithe being shiera seastar, Lem being Richard Lonmouth, Varys being a blackfure, Bronn being a Reyne or Tarbeck
    How many of these can be true before it gets ridiculous?

    I tend to be drawen to write similar characters again and again so I just started to go with it, seeing them as alternative universe Versionsnummer of one another, put into different worlds and circumstances, meeting some of the same people, but developing their relationships differently . . . It makes writeing them very interessting. I have a couple which is somewhat ment to be in almost every story one of them fetures, but if I recall it right, they never do cause of things that happened before they could. He has a bad case of an for the greater good mentality, which tends to place them opposing over time . . . I realy enjoy defining their difference and how those where carved out by what they lived through.

    You make some great, but I don't think Jamie being the Tattered Prince offering to fight for Daenerys, or any Targaryen in fact, really makes sense after his first hand experience of Targaryen tyranny.
    So in my mind GRRM would have cooked up this 5 years in the future version of Jamie whose become the Tattered Prince, but whose he's fighting would be pretty different, then GRRM scraps the time leap, keeps the Tattered Prince plot but changes it around so he's offering to fight for Daenerys. That seems like unnecessary work for such a minor character to me, but then again maybe that level of work is the reason GRRM hasn't released a mainline ASOIAF book since 2011

    I never realized about the reused character tropes, and it makes me wonder who else might have a similar setup.
    Victarion as the dimwitted warrior begrudgingly following orders in order to marry Daenerys does sound a bit similar to Jorah.
    Aurane Waters and Salladhor Saan both abandon their oaths to their respective monarchs when the going got tough, and turned pirate.
    A bit of a stretch, but Alys Karstark as the highborn lady running to the Night’s Watch away from a political marriage does sound like something Shireen might have faced if she were a few years older.

    I dont mean to spam your comment section but have you discussed the themes of hubris, identity and immortality? I can't shake the feeling that there is more behind the sayings "all men must die", "what is dead may never die" and "only death can pay for life". The concepts of resurrection, skin changing, flaying and whatever it is that Faceless Men do seem to point towards man's pursuit of divinity. Is this what caused the long night and the creation of the Others? Is this what Euron is working towards?

    • @Luminousreign
      @Luminousreign Před 3 lety

      Only death can pay for life is a direct allusion to how the faceless men work. You drink from the fountain, they kill somebody for you. That is the actual huge price the faceless men require for their services and why Littlefinger, who is culturally Braavosi always scoffs at using them and brings up the price. It isnt something you can pay for with coin. That is why the first gift was given to a slave and then they moved on to the masters. The reason this will remain subtext and not overt is because it would reveal too much about the nature of magic. What they are doing is a weird cross between warging and re-animation. That also explains why they are directly connected to the religion of the moonsingers which is clearly a religion dedicated/based around some variant of the Children of the forest.

      To me, "all men must die, all men must serve" reflects the practice of drinking from the fountain a bit closer. My interpretation is that the Faceless Men perform assisted suicides/mercy killing and those that give their lives to the Many Faced God enter a 2nd life of servitude in the sense that their face and image are used by the Faceless Men to carry out their assassinations.

      @@karimw.9954 If you think back to the slaves and what they did, there is a direct parallel to the assisted suicides and mercy killings they do. They mercy killed the slaves to kill the masters. Go back to the kindly man's story about the topic and you will realize this is the ethos he is trying to convey. Or think back to Arya saving three lives so she gets three deaths. It is one of the most heavily implied things about how the faceless men work. Also, it is a lot to type out but the bodies in the Arya chapters that she sees before her assignments are related to the assignments themselves. This equivalent exchange murder concept is their ethos, and a balance they dont magically stop observing in their temple.
