Prince Aerion thought he was a dragon in human skin, and he seems to have had dragon dreams, but truly - he was a monster. A look at his full life, before and after Ashford Meadow, including his time in Essos, his rumored use of black magic, his time in the Second Sons, his run as heir to the Iron Throne, and his very strange death.

“We’ve come to die for the dragon queen,” said Roddy the Ruin of the Winter Wolves, a group of fearless greybeards from the North sent in advance of Lord Cregan Stark’s greater forces, and the only army in the Dance of the Dragons that didn’t want to survive, let alone return home. We explore their glorious deeds and battles alongside the cultural history that drove them to fight as ferociously as they did.Vote for Us in the Hugo Awards for Best Related Work - https://nomnom.lacon.org/Filippo Loretti Stark Watches - https://filippoloretiwatches.com/collections/house-of-starkShirts - historyofwesteros.threadless.comHoW Audience Survey - bit.ly/howsurveyBonus Eps & More - patreon.com/historyofwesteroswww.historyofwesteros.comIntro/Maps - klaradox.deFacebook Group - bit.ly/howfbDiscord - bit.ly/howdiscord
We return to the action immediately following the Battle of Leuctra where Sparta reeled from unexpected defeat. Yet a new determination emerged in King Agesilaus - who reminded his countrymen that his nemesis hadn’t beaten *him*. Meanwhile Thebes, under Epaminondas and Pelopidas, was suddenly the spearpoint of a new Greece, what would they do with this windfall of power? This certainly disrupted the expectations and plans of the biggest players like Jason of Pherae and Great King Artaxerxes of Persia - both of whom simultaneously faced internal threats. In this episode many notable names will meet their end!Shirts - historyofwesteros.threadless.comHoW Audience Survey - bit.ly/howsurveyBonus Eps & More - patreon.com/historyofwesteroswww.historyofwesteros.comIntro/Maps - klaradox.deFacebook Group - bit.ly/howfbDiscord - bit.ly/howdiscordNina - goodqueenaly.tumblr.com/
House of the Dragon has a second teaser and a release date - June 21st! There’s a huge surprise in this one - a character we all (including GRRM) thought was cut. Plus some very curious shots and dialogue for us to puzzle and geek out over. Video is preferred due to the many images, but here is an album with all the screenshots for those listening with audio only! https://ibb.co/album/ZG4pHjShirts - historyofwesteros.threadless.comBonus Eps & More - patreon.com/historyofwesteroswww.historyofwesteros.comIntro/Maps - klaradox.deFacebook Group - bit.ly/howfbDiscord - bit.ly/howdiscordHoW Audience Survey - bit.ly/howsurveyNina - goodqueenaly.tumblr.com/
22 years after the Dance, the last living dragon in Westeros died. All the dragons hatched after the war were weak, spawning theories of poison by the maesters. Some believe they aimed to end the influence of magic, and there’s intriguing evidence of change in that regard. Others believe their goal was simply to end the influence of dragons… It could be both, but the Citadel is not the only culprit. An episode that spans characters from Marwyn the Mage to Ser Arlan of Pennytree.Shirts - historyofwesteros.threadless.comHoW Audience Survey - bit.ly/howsurveyBonus Eps & More - patreon.com/historyofwesteroswww.historyofwesteros.comIntro/Maps - klaradox.deFacebook Group - bit.ly/howfbDiscord - bit.ly/howdiscordNina - goodqueenaly.tumblr.com/
Thousands of years ago, Torgon the Latecomer was defeated and much of his Riverlands holdings were seized by House Mallister, who made themselves kings in turn. Ten years ago, Balon Greyjoy sent his eldest son Rodrik to attack those very lands, giving Lord Jason a chance to remind his ancient foes why the silver eagle of House Mallister has been the bane of the Ironborn since their founding. Though currently held in check by Black Walder, they have held most of their strength through the War of Five Kings and are poised to play a significant role in the downfall of House Frey and the remainder of ASOIAF.Shirts - historyofwesteros.threadless.comHoW Audience Survey - bit.ly/howsurveyBonus Eps & More - patreon.com/historyofwesteroswww.historyofwesteros.comIntro/Maps - klaradox.deFacebook Group - bit.ly/howfbDiscord - bit.ly/howdiscordNina - goodqueenaly.tumblr.com/
Descended from Foss the Archer and Garth Greenhand, the Fossoways have a presence throughout history starting with the First Men all the way through to ASOIAF. They feature characters all over the spectrum: heroic Raymun who fought for Dunk and founded a new branch… and poisonous Ser Derrick, the Bad Apple, one of the Band of Nine who fought with Maelys the Monstrous Blackfyre. From Red to Green to Brown, it’s a house as delicious as it is punny.

Thebes (led by Pelopidas and Epaminondas) and Sparta (led by Agesilaus) head inexorably towards a massive showdown… a bloody contest that remains legendary to this day - a historical treasure trove and an amazing story all in one. Not to be outdone, Poseidon takes center stage - giving us a likely candidate for Atlantis. Meanwhile ancient Great King Artaxerxes of Persia refuses to die or give up on taking back Egypt, and the powers north of Greece grow ever stronger.
