    I know hindsight is 20:20 but traveling through the countryside with a Targaryen princeling without dyeing his hair and keeping a low profile is peak stupidity.
    If you want to know how it's done look no further that how that Night's Watchman Yorren transported Arya. He cut her hair and passed her off as a boy.

    Lady Caswell was a idiot for trying to play both sides, she sent Maelor’s remains and the knight’s body to kings landing to claim reward for Maelor from blacks, and then tried to give dragon egg as leverage to Greens to avoid any wrath.
    I think that’s what pissed Daeron so much, that she claimed she was sorry and that she had nothing to do with it, while sending his remains to the blacks to claim the bounty that led to his death by being torn apart by the mob of her people and thought giving him the egg was better.

    This event is tragic and epic NEEDS TO BE ADAPTED 1x1 from the book , PRAYING THIS HAPPENS but im not sure because i dont think the show will develop a lot the kingsguard character to make us care for this particular knight and his sacrifice, but praying at least this event is adapted 99% from the book writings

      @Drpavel564 Před 10 měsíci +3

      I'd agree but look at it this way. Only three people were punished; one of them was just a guy whos horse got stolen. The mob didn't get punished, the guards show shot Thorne down didnt get punished.

      For sure. In the show Lord Castwell pretended to swear loyalty only to try and escape immediately after to the other side. In both the show and books the Greens execute him and Maelor's death was on their land as well. The Greens definitely hate them.

      The whole Dance was extremely horrific and bloody with massacres the most common dish served to those of the other side. It is based largely on the English civil war, which was unfortunately very brutal in the real world as well.

    Is ser Allister Thorne a descendent from this Thorne?

    • @jonniemckaig883
      @jonniemckaig883 Před 10 měsíci +2

      Probably a relative but part of the Kingsguard oath is to remain chaste and father no children, so, he would probably be a distant great uncle or something.

    • @wfmikeie
      @wfmikeie Před 4 měsíci +1

      House Thorne is a noble house from the Crownlands. Ser Allister was an Mad King loyalist in King's Landing when Tywin Lannister sacked the city and sent him to the wall. Ser Rickard was a knight of the kingsguard who fathered no children, so they are relatives yes, but not direct descendants.
