00:00:06
and we are back for overanalyzing House
00:00:08
of the Dragon after going over all of
00:00:10
the events leading up to the war we are
00:00:12
now at the beginning of the dance of the
00:00:14
dragons with riras blacks facing off
00:00:16
against aegon's greens we understand
00:00:19
quite well why the factions formed and
00:00:22
now in the wake of varus's death we are
00:00:24
here to explore the event that ignites
00:00:26
the war the green Council the council
00:00:29
convened in the Queen's Apartments
00:00:31
within magor's hold fast many accounts
00:00:34
have come down to us of what was said
00:00:35
and done that night by far the most
00:00:38
detailed and authoritative of them is
00:00:40
Grandmaster monins the dance of the
00:00:42
Dragons a true telling though monins
00:00:45
exhaust of History was not written until
00:00:47
a generation later and drew on many
00:00:50
different sorts of materials including
00:00:52
maesters Chronicles Memoirs stewards
00:00:55
records and interviews with 147
00:00:57
surviving witnesses to the great events
00:00:59
of of these times his account of the
00:01:02
inner workings of the Court relies upon
00:01:04
the confessions of grander orwh as set
00:01:07
down before his execution unlike
00:01:10
mushroom and septon Eustace whose
00:01:12
versions derive from rumors hearsay and
00:01:14
family Legend The Grandmaster was
00:01:16
present at the meeting and took part in
00:01:18
the council's deliberations and
00:01:20
decisions though it must be recognized
00:01:23
that at the time he wrote orwh was most
00:01:25
anxious to show himself in a favorable
00:01:27
light and absolve himself of any blame
00:01:31
for what was to follow monins true
00:01:33
telling therefore paints his predecessor
00:01:36
in perhaps too favorable a light and so
00:01:39
here we come to the story of the green
00:01:41
Council which at its heart is an
00:01:43
enormous retcon from A Feast for Crows
00:01:45
where Arion and Aries oart discussed the
00:01:48
dance of the dragons in that story
00:01:50
Kristen Cole is the most important
00:01:52
character deciding to change the air
00:01:54
from rira to aegon as viser lace dying
00:01:58
now it's the green Council making the
00:02:00
decision and Christen Cole is just a bit
00:02:02
player and so starting things off we get
00:02:05
a paragraph on sourcing that does not
00:02:07
appear in the original Princess and the
00:02:09
queen but is added for Fire and Blood we
00:02:12
find out that gildan's history is based
00:02:14
mostly on the history of Grandmaster
00:02:16
monin but that history is based on the
00:02:19
confessions of Grandmaster orwh which
00:02:22
according to Gildan is a biased source
00:02:25
and I do have to say that this paragraph
00:02:27
is a bit sloppily written first of all
00:02:30
the action of the first sentence that
00:02:32
the green Council convened in the
00:02:34
Queen's Apartments is repeated in the
00:02:36
very next paragraph but beyond this the
00:02:39
paragraph is confusing on first read and
00:02:41
that it's trying to do two somewhat
00:02:43
different things at once it's trying to
00:02:45
introduce us to a new source monin in a
00:02:48
general sense the whole War while trying
00:02:51
to talk about the bias of a different
00:02:53
Source or while in a particular instance
00:02:57
the green Council and so when Gildan
00:02:59
starts talking about mushroom and
00:03:01
eustace's versions in the middle of the
00:03:03
paragraph It's a bit confusing as
00:03:05
mushroom and Eustace both wrote versions
00:03:08
of the whole War too but actually Gildan
00:03:11
has switched back to talking about just
00:03:13
the green Council so what Gildan means
00:03:15
is the mushroom and eustace's versions
00:03:18
of that event now with Fire and Blood I
00:03:21
do think our author is trying to
00:03:22
shoehorn in Grand maester monkin and his
00:03:24
true telling as it is a character and a
00:03:27
book actually mentioned in the Dance
00:03:29
with Dragons in Tyrion 3 Tyrion and
00:03:32
helden half maaster argue about which
00:03:33
Dragon was killed by Byron Swan and
00:03:36
Tyrion thinks that Grandmaster monkin
00:03:38
has aired in his true telling and so our
00:03:40
author's mechanism for putting in monkin
00:03:43
is primarily by saying that monken's
00:03:45
account is or's account that is the true
00:03:49
telling is based on or's confessions
00:03:51
written down at the end of the war in
00:03:54
fact over and over and over dozens of
00:03:57
times in Fire and Blood we hear that mon
00:03:59
is based on orwh and true telling is
00:04:02
based on confessions but here's the
00:04:04
weird thing if or's confessions exist as
00:04:08
a primary source written at the war's
00:04:10
end why would anyone cite the secondary
00:04:14
source true telling from a generation
00:04:16
later just say according to orwh after
00:04:19
all we never hear about the confessions
00:04:21
being a lost Source it's rather odd that
00:04:24
we have to keep hearing about monkin and
00:04:26
our author clumsily explaining it's
00:04:28
based on orwh over and over now one can
00:04:31
perhaps make the argument that monkin
00:04:33
and later Gildan are covering something
00:04:35
up that's in or's confessions and by
00:04:38
only citing monkin we avoid or conceal
00:04:40
the information but we have little idea
00:04:43
on what exactly that would be now I do
00:04:45
have to say that orwh himself is a
00:04:48
fascinating character whose loyalties
00:04:50
are not clear he certainly was not for
00:04:53
the black faction and did serve aegon
00:04:55
and he was imprisoned by rera and kraan
00:04:57
Stark both blacks and he was saved from
00:05:00
execution by Thailand Lannister A
00:05:02
prominent green though he was later
00:05:04
killed by greens and there are some
00:05:06
things right from the beginning that
00:05:09
didn't exactly serve the green cause
00:05:11
such as causing conflict during this
00:05:13
green Council and so there is a question
00:05:16
to whether his true loyalties lie
00:05:18
somewhere else that perhaps he was part
00:05:21
of a deeper conspiracy and we will
00:05:23
explore this more in just a bit
00:05:26
gathering in the Queen's Chambers as the
00:05:28
body of her Lord husband grew cold above
00:05:30
were Queen Allison herself her father
00:05:33
sir Otto Hightower hand of the King sir
00:05:36
Christen Cole Lord commander of the
00:05:38
King's Guard Grandmaster orwh Lord Lyman
00:05:41
beeberry master of coin a man of 80 sir
00:05:45
tyent Lannister master of ships brother
00:05:48
to the Lord of cly Rock L strong called
00:05:51
L's clubfoot Lord of herin Hall Master
00:05:54
of Whisperers and Lord Jasper wild
00:05:57
called iron Rod master master of laws
00:06:00
grandm monin dubs this Gathering the
00:06:03
green Council in his true telling and so
00:06:06
here we get a little lie from Gildan the
00:06:09
council did not gather while the body
00:06:10
grew cold as we discussed last time it's
00:06:13
been many hours since viseris died at
00:06:16
least three his body is well and cold
00:06:20
Gildan makes it seem like the meeting
00:06:21
took place right after viserys's death
00:06:24
when it most certainly did not and then
00:06:26
we get a little roll call of who
00:06:28
attended the so-called green Council the
00:06:30
final line being a later addition for
00:06:32
Fire and Blood mentioning the source of
00:06:34
monin Again by the way the term green
00:06:37
council is used both in The Princess and
00:06:39
the Queen and Fire and Blood to describe
00:06:41
two things first the Gathering after
00:06:44
viserys's death as an event this event
00:06:48
is the green Council bees Berry dies at
00:06:51
the green Council the event but the
00:06:54
green council is also used as a term
00:06:56
synonymous with Aon small Council one
00:06:59
can say for example that Jasper wild was
00:07:02
a member of the green Council the green
00:07:05
Council made decisions throughout the
00:07:07
war now this same roll call was shoved
00:07:09
in at the end of the last chapter so we
00:07:11
don't need to repeat who's on it again
00:07:13
but it's worth asking who the sources
00:07:15
for information are on it again sourcing
00:07:19
was kind of a later addition by our
00:07:20
author so when originally written little
00:07:23
thought was given to how this
00:07:24
information actually got out but as
00:07:26
edited for Fire and Blood sourcing is
00:07:29
much discussed and there is definitely a
00:07:31
big lingering question of who spilled
00:07:34
the beans about what went down at the
00:07:35
green Council we know that one of the
00:07:38
sources is Grandmaster orwh but both
00:07:41
mushroom and septon Eustace seem to
00:07:43
believe and report on another source as
00:07:46
more reliable and this wasn't just
00:07:48
madeup information from septon Eustace
00:07:50
and mushroom The Source was able to
00:07:52
produce identical dialogue to or's
00:07:55
account the problem is almost everyone
00:07:57
on the council dies or would have little
00:08:00
opportunity or desire to talk to
00:08:02
mushroom or Eustace keep in mind bees
00:08:04
Berry is murdered during this Council
00:08:06
and the other participants would have
00:08:08
been tight lipped and even among them
00:08:10
there are only two survivors of the war
00:08:13
Thailand Lannister and Allison high
00:08:14
tower it's possible that Thailand
00:08:17
Lannister spoke of it but near the end
00:08:19
of his life he claimed he couldn't even
00:08:21
remember who was a black or a green and
00:08:23
Allison went kind of nuts at the endend
00:08:25
and began talking to herself perhaps a
00:08:28
Septa or servant girl overheard an
00:08:30
account of events but again the dialogue
00:08:33
reported is near identical to orwh it's
00:08:36
very accurate so both Thailand and
00:08:39
Allison seem improbable in the end
00:08:42
though perhaps our author didn't really
00:08:43
think this through the most logical
00:08:45
source for mushroom and Eustace is
00:08:48
probably some random serving man or
00:08:50
King's Guard who had an ear to the door
00:08:53
Grandmaster orwh opened the meeting by
00:08:55
reviewing the customary tasks and
00:08:57
procedures required at the death of a a
00:08:59
king he said septon Eustace should be
00:09:02
summoned to perform the last rights and
00:09:04
pray for the king's Soul a raven must
00:09:07
needs be sent to Dragonstone at once to
00:09:09
inform princess rira of her father's
00:09:11
passing mayhaps her grace the queen
00:09:14
would care to write the message so as to
00:09:16
soften these sad Tidings with some words
00:09:19
of condolence the bells are always rung
00:09:21
to announce the death of a king someone
00:09:23
should see to that and of course we must
00:09:26
begin to make our preparations for queen
00:09:28
reneer
00:09:29
coronation and so here we get a very
00:09:32
interesting paragraph that makes us
00:09:33
wonder what Grandmaster orwh game is
00:09:36
exactly this paragraph is some of the
00:09:38
best evidence that orwh is at best a
00:09:41
reluctant green supporter and who most
00:09:44
likely has a different agenda he almost
00:09:46
certainly was someone who was not at the
00:09:49
preg green Council Council now if you
00:09:52
notice or's words are needlessly
00:09:55
incendiary and seem to be secretly
00:09:57
pushing the council towards conflict
00:09:59
in fact I would say his words are almost
00:10:02
devilishly manipulative allowing tempers
00:10:04
to rise on a side note this paragraph is
00:10:07
untouched from The Princess and the
00:10:09
Queen and there is no conflicting
00:10:11
account from mushroom and Eustace these
00:10:13
are or's words he really said this so
00:10:17
regarding the manipulation Orwell first
00:10:20
calls for prayer and then He suggests
00:10:23
that alicent send condolences to rira
00:10:26
which is quite Rich it's no secret that
00:10:29
and Allison have a strained relationship
00:10:31
and alicent would certainly not want to
00:10:33
do this not to mention the Widow of the
00:10:36
king should be in as much grief as the
00:10:39
daughter the queen sending condolences
00:10:42
rather than receiving them is wholly
00:10:44
inappropriate and rather insulting the
00:10:46
queen is supposed to be in mourning why
00:10:49
would anyone ask her to pick up a quill
00:10:51
to say nothing of the feelings of Aon
00:10:53
and the other children who are wholly
00:10:55
ignored so rof the bat orwh seems to be
00:10:58
antagonizing alent and by extension Auto
00:11:01
then orwh in describing what they should
00:11:04
do makes a rather large jump he says
00:11:07
that the bells should be rung to
00:11:09
announce the King's death and then they
00:11:11
need to make preparations for rira's
00:11:14
coronation there is of course quite a
00:11:17
bit missing here obviously when a King
00:11:19
dies the family must be informed his
00:11:22
body must be prepared a funeral occurs
00:11:24
where the family gathers not to mention
00:11:27
there's issues of inheritance security
00:11:29
for the city stability in the realm but
00:11:32
he skips over all of this and brings up
00:11:34
rir coronation Orwell absolutely must
00:11:38
know that the high Towers hoped for
00:11:39
aegon to rule over rira after all Otto
00:11:43
was dismissed for pestering viseris
00:11:45
about it and later bees Berry brings up
00:11:47
the fact that Allison and the greens
00:11:49
would constantly pester the king about
00:11:51
it as well and yet here orwh bluntly
00:11:54
brings up a coronation that is a
00:11:57
celebration for reneir taking power and
00:12:01
just after annoying the high Towers
00:12:03
about the condolences issue it is no
00:12:05
wonder that Otto rather emotionally
00:12:07
breaks in after this sir OT Hightower
00:12:10
cut him off all this must needs wait he
00:12:13
declared until the question of
00:12:15
succession is settled as the king's hand
00:12:18
he was empowered to speak with the
00:12:19
king's voice even to sit the iron throne
00:12:22
in the king's absence the series had
00:12:24
granted him the authority to rule over
00:12:26
the Seven Kingdoms and until such time
00:12:30
as our new king is crowned that rule
00:12:32
would continue and so here Otto jumps in
00:12:35
and cuts off orwh to say that the
00:12:37
question of succession needs to be
00:12:38
settled and then he points out rather
00:12:40
bluntly that he is in charge until a new
00:12:43
king is crowned now of course there is
00:12:46
no question of succession viseris was
00:12:49
very clear that riro was Heir and both
00:12:51
orwh and beber who apparently were not
00:12:54
at the preg green Council Council or
00:12:56
conspiring with the others assume riro
00:12:59
will rule what is rather clear is that
00:13:01
Otto was hoping to use the green Council
00:13:04
to make succession a question and then
00:13:07
through dialogue have the rest of the
00:13:08
small Council namely bees Barry and orwh
00:13:12
come around to choosing aegon after all
00:13:15
OT probably didn't plan this meeting
00:13:17
expecting to murder bees Berry that
00:13:19
seemed to happen when the conversation
00:13:21
went poorly bees Barry realized the
00:13:23
meeting was not a real discussion but
00:13:25
only a coup and then tries to leave AO
00:13:28
probably hoped to trick bees Berry into
00:13:31
thinking that this was some Noble
00:13:32
Meeting of Minds that would naturally
00:13:35
conclude aegon should be king and that
00:13:37
of course didn't happen and so it does
00:13:40
seem that the line until such time as
00:13:42
our new king is crowned was Auto
00:13:45
misspeaking rather than this being an
00:13:47
event where a conversation happens about
00:13:49
succession that leads to a conclusion OT
00:13:52
reveals that he's already prejudged the
00:13:55
situation essentially OT slips up here
00:13:57
goes masks off and reveals that this is
00:14:00
a coup before the discussion even begins
00:14:03
and so naturally the conversation that
00:14:05
follows is a heated argument and so if
00:14:08
we accept that this was a misspeak we
00:14:10
have to look at the cause of the
00:14:12
misspeak which happens to be orwh riling
00:14:15
him up until our new Queen is crowned
00:14:18
someone said in Grandmaster monins
00:14:21
account the words are orwh softly spoken
00:14:24
no more than a quibble but mushroom and
00:14:26
sept in Eustace insist it was beeberry
00:14:29
who spoke up in a waspish tone King
00:14:33
insisted Queen Allison the iron thrown
00:14:36
by rights must pass to his Grace's
00:14:38
eldest trueborn son and so as we see the
00:14:41
conversation quickly goes off the rails
00:14:43
after Otto's possible misspeak with
00:14:46
someone saying Queen and then Allison
00:14:48
insisting King now the someone who
00:14:50
speaks Queen is in question in Fire and
00:14:53
Blood with monin claiming its orwh which
00:14:56
means in or's account he claims its
00:14:58
himself but both mushroom and Eustace
00:15:01
claim it's bees Berry and it's worth
00:15:03
noting that in the original Princess and
00:15:05
the queen it's bees Berry there's no
00:15:07
mention of it possibly being orwh and
00:15:10
honestly speaking of course it's bees
00:15:13
Berry and not orwh bees Berry is
00:15:15
murdered later while orwh is not it
00:15:18
makes no sense that orwh would be making
00:15:20
Arguments for hours and then to have
00:15:22
bees Berry suddenly pipe up at the end
00:15:24
and get murdered the dialogue matches
00:15:26
bees Berry creating a logical flow to
00:15:29
the ending and if orwh were questioning
00:15:31
aegon's legitimacy too much he probably
00:15:34
wouldn't have been left on as Grand
00:15:35
maester or if he were he would not be as
00:15:38
trusted as he was now it is notable that
00:15:41
in this new biased monkin account in
00:15:43
Fire and Blood there is not just a claim
00:15:46
that orwh might have spoken it but
00:15:48
there's a claim that he spoke it softly
00:15:50
as if orwh is trying not to anger people
00:15:54
of course the response by Allison shows
00:15:56
that she was in fact angered emotions
00:15:59
had risen quickly and this seems to be
00:16:01
due to or's original comments the ones
00:16:04
he actually said the discussion that
00:16:06
followed lasted n until dawn Grandmaster
00:16:09
monin tells us mushroom and sept and
00:16:11
eustus concur in their accounts only
00:16:14
Lord bberry spoke on behalf of Princess
00:16:16
rira the ancient master of coin who had
00:16:19
served King viseris for the majority of
00:16:21
his Reign and his grandfather Jaris the
00:16:24
Old King before him reminded the council
00:16:26
that rira was older than her brother
00:16:28
others and had more Targaryen blood that
00:16:31
the late King had chosen her as his
00:16:33
successor and that he had repeatedly
00:16:35
refused to alter the succession despite
00:16:38
the pleadings of Queen Allison and her
00:16:40
greens that hundreds of Lords and landed
00:16:42
Knights had done obeisance to the
00:16:44
princess in 105 AC and sworn solemn
00:16:47
Oaths to defend her rights Grandmaster
00:16:50
Orwell's account differs only in that he
00:16:52
puts many of these arguments into his
00:16:54
own mouth rather than bees berries but
00:16:57
subsequent events suggest that was not
00:17:00
so as we shall see and so next we get
00:17:03
the argument that rira should be the
00:17:04
ruler given by again a mystery person
00:17:07
either orwh or bees Berry and again in
00:17:10
the original Princess and the queen it's
00:17:13
just bees Berry and of course it's bees
00:17:16
Berry the murder and the dialogue just
00:17:18
fit him even Gildan admits at the end of
00:17:20
the Fire and Blood paragraph that it's
00:17:22
bees Berry now besides the sourcing
00:17:25
there is one other change from The
00:17:26
Princess and the Queen version to Fire
00:17:28
and Blood with this paragraph and that
00:17:30
is correcting bees Berry's reign as
00:17:32
master of coin in the original Princess
00:17:34
and the queen our author claims that
00:17:36
Beast Berry was Master of coin for the
00:17:38
entire viser Reign this changed to
00:17:41
majority in Fire and Blood as in the
00:17:44
Rogue prince it's established that Damon
00:17:46
was briefly master of coin now I will
00:17:49
say that the conversation of the green
00:17:50
council is said to last a long time it
00:17:54
seems to last hours apparently and
00:17:56
realistically there doesn't seem to be a
00:17:58
good reason for this argument to be
00:18:00
hours long did Iron Rod's history lesson
00:18:03
really go on for hours but whatever also
00:18:07
it's strange that bees Berry brings
00:18:09
forward a couple of arguments that are
00:18:11
pretty weak rira being older being the
00:18:13
first this is a self-defeating argument
00:18:16
within a Westeros that has no Dorn after
00:18:19
all older coming before younger and son
00:18:22
coming before daughter is the westerosi
00:18:24
succession the question before us is
00:18:26
really Monarch's choice versus the law
00:18:29
of the land bringing up rira's Advantage
00:18:32
with one/ half of the law of the land
00:18:34
just invites one to think about the
00:18:36
other half of the law the second weak
00:18:38
argument is that rira has more Targaryen
00:18:41
blood which is an argument never used
00:18:43
before and never used after for
00:18:45
determining a monarch keep in mind when
00:18:48
Balon was chosen over rice in '92 the
00:18:51
arguments for each claimant are given
00:18:53
and no one mentions the fact that Balon
00:18:55
has more Targaryen blood during the
00:18:58
Council of 101 arguments are given for
00:19:00
claimant as well and vas's blood Purity
00:19:03
is not mentioned it's really weird that
00:19:05
it comes up here as we've only seen
00:19:07
targaryens themselves really care about
00:19:09
so-called blood Purity no one else has
00:19:12
ever cared and I'm not sure why beesy
00:19:15
would care about this or why he would
00:19:17
think it would sway anyone he might be
00:19:19
repeating something viser said but if
00:19:22
viser cared about blood Purity why would
00:19:24
he marry Allison and wouldn't aon's
00:19:27
children's blood purity be a factor even
00:19:29
if viseris and beber cared about blood
00:19:32
Purity for Dragon riding or something it
00:19:35
doesn't really hold up as aegon's
00:19:37
children have dragons whatever the case
00:19:39
these first two arguments are so weak
00:19:41
that they are promptly ignored by the
00:19:43
small Council and never mentioned again
00:19:46
I suspect our author was simply adding
00:19:47
arguments in this paragraph to help
00:19:50
balance the long list of arguments that
00:19:52
are then given for aegon it is the third
00:19:55
point that bees Berry makes that is by
00:19:57
far the strongest AR argument and really
00:19:59
the only one that matters viseris chose
00:20:02
rira and Lords vowed to follow her in
00:20:05
fact bberry doesn't really go far enough
00:20:08
he could have mentioned that Jaris chose
00:20:10
his Heir with Aon then chose his Heir
00:20:13
with Bon and even chose his Heir with
00:20:16
viseris after the Council of 101
00:20:19
choosing a successor is really the
00:20:20
targaryan tradition but these words fell
00:20:23
on ears Made of Stone sir tyland pointed
00:20:26
out that many of the Lords who had sworn
00:20:28
to defend the succession of Princess
00:20:30
rera were long dead it has been 24 years
00:20:34
he said I myself swore no such oath I
00:20:37
was a child at the time ironrod the
00:20:40
master of laws cited the great Council
00:20:42
of 101 and the old King's choice of
00:20:44
Balon rather than rise in '92 then
00:20:47
discoursed at length about aegon the
00:20:49
Conqueror and his sisters and the
00:20:51
hollowed andle tradition wherein the
00:20:53
rights of a trueborn son always came
00:20:55
before the rights of a mere daughter sir
00:20:58
Otto reminded them that rira's husband
00:21:00
was none other than Prince Damon and we
00:21:03
all know that one's nature make no
00:21:05
mistake should rira ever sit the Iron
00:21:08
Throne it will be Lord flee botom who
00:21:10
rules us a king consort as cruel and
00:21:13
unforgiving as magor ever was my own
00:21:17
head will be the first cut off I do not
00:21:19
doubt but your queen my daughter will
00:21:22
soon follow and so here we get the
00:21:25
response to bees Berry from the rest of
00:21:26
the small Council on why aegon should be
00:21:29
king by the way the paragraph begins
00:21:32
with a bblike phrase about words falling
00:21:34
on ears Made of Stone in the Bible stone
00:21:37
hearts or hardened hearts are synonymous
00:21:40
with stubborn Hearts most notably the
00:21:43
Pharaoh of Exodus whose heart is
00:21:45
hardened and then his land is made to
00:21:47
endure a battery of plagues these are
00:21:50
Stone ears but it's essentially the same
00:21:52
situation we have stubbornness which
00:21:54
will bring plagues upon Westeros now in
00:21:57
this par paragraph we hear from Thailand
00:21:59
Lannister Jasper wild and Otto Hightower
00:22:02
and then in subsequent paragraphs we are
00:22:03
going to hear from Allison and Kristen
00:22:05
Cole the Pack's arguments seem very
00:22:08
prepared and complimentary It seems
00:22:11
impossible that they were improvised on
00:22:12
the spot and so it seems likely that
00:22:15
these five were scheming at the preg
00:22:17
green Council Council if not before so
00:22:20
Thailand Lannister goes first
00:22:22
questioning whether the Oaths of parents
00:22:24
legally passed to Children many of the
00:22:27
Lords are dead
00:22:28
and he himself made no such oath as he
00:22:30
was a child and indeed fty and oath were
00:22:33
complicated legal mechanisms in medieval
00:22:36
times it's difficult to know if the oath
00:22:38
of the Lord passes to the heir it
00:22:41
probably depends on the oath the
00:22:42
conditions and the
00:22:44
circumstances that said Thailand is
00:22:47
absolutely being a worm here as he's not
00:22:50
the Lord of casty rock his twin brother
00:22:53
Jason is whether Thailand made an oath
00:22:56
or not is completely irrelevant yet he
00:22:58
places himself among the Lords who may
00:23:00
have been commanded to follow rira his
00:23:02
opinion on a Lord's oath is irrelevant
00:23:05
as he's not even a lord outside of being
00:23:07
master of coin and as master of coin his
00:23:10
opinion is irrelevant he's not the
00:23:12
master of law Jasper wild could perhaps
00:23:15
speak on the inheritance of Oaths but he
00:23:17
ignores this issue now I will say that
00:23:20
Thailand's statement that it's been 24
00:23:21
years is also quite ironic as yes on its
00:23:25
own 24 years seems like a long time but
00:23:28
his statements are followed by a gaggle
00:23:30
of people who are living well in the
00:23:32
past you see after Thailand we get
00:23:35
Jasper Wild's discussion about the
00:23:36
Council of 101 Balon being chosen over
00:23:39
rice in '92 and Aon the Conqueror having
00:23:42
right over his sisters during the
00:23:44
conquest all of which happened more than
00:23:46
24 years ago now some may argue that
00:23:49
this is Law and precedent matters except
00:23:51
that Oaths in medieval times were legal
00:23:54
instruments hundreds of Lords swearing
00:23:57
vows is in fact legal precedent but
00:24:00
Jasper wild ignores this issue allowing
00:24:03
the master of coin to speak on it and
00:24:05
Beyond this Jasper's interpretation of
00:24:07
History also focuses on the male being
00:24:09
chosen over the female though one could
00:24:11
easily focus on the male being chosen
00:24:14
over the female Jaris chose viseris
00:24:18
after the Council of 101 Jaris chose Bon
00:24:22
over Ry legal precedent supports
00:24:25
Monarch's Choice which favors rira and
00:24:28
then we get Otto criticizing rira for
00:24:30
being married to Damon and claiming that
00:24:32
Damon is like meor the cruel and calling
00:24:35
him Lord F Bottom now not only is Otto
00:24:38
ignoring the character of aegon which by
00:24:40
all accounts was not a good one his
00:24:42
criticism of Damon is from 24 years ago
00:24:46
it was in 105 that Otto sent a letter to
00:24:49
his brother claiming that Damon was like
00:24:51
moror the cruel and it was in 105 that
00:24:54
he called him Lord fle botom back when
00:24:56
Damon was head of the gold cloaks ot's
00:24:59
opinion of Damon is from 24 years ago
00:25:02
when Damon was 24 years old he's now 48
00:25:06
and Otto has spent almost no time in the
00:25:08
same location with Damon since 105 now
00:25:12
Otto predicts that if rira sits the
00:25:14
throne Damon will be cruel and
00:25:16
unforgiving his own head will be the
00:25:18
first to be cut off and Allison will
00:25:20
soon follow of those three predictions
00:25:23
only his own beheading ends up being
00:25:25
accurate though it had nothing to do
00:25:27
with with Damon admittedly this is not
00:25:30
the best place to stop but this video is
00:25:32
getting long and the events of the green
00:25:34
Council continue on for a bit so we will
00:25:37
return to the green Council in part 30
00:25:40
thanks for watching and we'll see you
00:25:41
next time
