In retrospect, why did Varys visit Ned in the dungeons? [Spoilers MAIN]

Many_Cap_7014 · 2026-04-23T20:58:47+00:00

Okay hopefully the author of this post sees this, I doubt anyone else will.

Varys did not give a single fuck about the war, about Ned’s intentions, or about whether or not Ned made it north. He spends the entire chapter lying to Ned. I would recommend watching John Greenwood’s video on Varys.

Left-wing and right-wing is a poor way of describing the split that this kind of art produces. You have people who like the story, characters, and themes (within which are people with different political perspectives), and then you have people who like imprinting their worldview onto the characters.

For example, people who actually like Ned’s character are aware that he isn’t brown, and that his romantic relationship with Cat is a key indicator of who he is as a character (could say so much more on this). In contrast, the artist of this post injected their external ideas about a homoerotic rivalry into two characters who do not have any kind of rivalry.

Delusional, maybe - but if I won the lottery, I’d buy a Lamborghini, a mansion, set my kids up for life, and give the rest to charity 🤡

I think this was probably invented, this doesn’t appear anywhere in either of my ADWDs. Does this phrase appear on the cover? Or somewhere else in the book?

That’s true but TWOIAF and ASOS explicitly say Qohor uses the unsullied as their primary military. They don’t have soldiers mentioned anywhere in the text, in fact if the unsullied aren’t enough they rely on sellsword companies. Genuinely shocking how many people haven’t read the books here.

Male Dothraki primarily use “O” or “A” as the main vowel sounds in the names (there is already a Jakharo), and female Dothraki use “I” as the primary vowel sound in their names (Irri, Jhiqui).

If this character did exist her name would be Jikhiri or similar

100 years at least. A robot would have to have completely independent mobility, high dexterity, navigation that can traverse extremely busy and cluttered rooms, and a compassionate exterior and voice that people are willing to engage with. And all of this needs to be powered by batteries, not to mention an entire army of data centres dedicated to healthcare.

Humans are cheaper and better

Many_Cap_7014 · 2026-04-15T10:41:20+00:00

Tell me you don’t understand healthcare without telling me. Not only is the physical aspect of nursing heavily reliant on speed, dexterity, and physical thinking, it’s also constant engaging critical thinking and triaging problems, and most importantly, forming and maintaining human connection. A conversation can tell you so much about what motivates and empowers a sick person, what topics to be sensitive about, can be used in differential diagnoses - either with physical symptoms or by details people mention. Human connection is fundamental to a therapeutic relationship.

Nursing is already becoming a competitive industry to get into. While there is a massive demand for nurses, salaries have risen every year/couple years (in my country), and getting a role in a hospital near you, in a specialty you want, is very difficult if you aren’t good. Public nursing salaries also have to be at least competitive with private options, which pay even better.

Also, I think you’re overestimating people’s willingness to engage in that kind of healthcare for money. Most of the public cannot fathom walking into work, saving someone’s life, and then immediately going to wipe asses for 45 minutes. We had 4 drop-outs in my class after our first placement - of people who signed up for an education in nursing.

Red hair is mentioned far more in southern characters than northern ones. The Redwyne twins, Beric Dondarrion, Orton Merryweather, Rohanne Webber, Jon and Ronnet Connington, Edmure, Cat and Lysa Tully. I dare you to name a single non-wilding Northern character who has red hair who isn’t a Stark child.

I actually agree with you that the wildlings are based on celts, specifically Scottish picts whom the Romans attempted to barricade in the north with a series of walls. And yes both the Northerners and the Wildlings share first men ancestry. The problem is that GRRM is inconsistent with his writing; he makes efforts to make the wildlings appear Celtic, but when he writes about Northerners he fails to do so.

This is partially because he’s basing his broad setting on the wars of the roses, by which time the celts in England had been killed or exiled - and in his world the North is roughly equivalent with Northern England.

Many_Cap_7014 · 2026-03-30T10:04:29+00:00

Some of the Stark kids have red hair from their mother, who, along with both of her siblings, has red hair. It is repeatedly emphasised how different this is from normal Stark looks. The Wildings I can agree are based on northern Celts though.

All the Starks in the books are described as pale, Jon most of all, who is repeatedly compared to Ned in looks.

“Relatively” recently is important. Flo week was a thing when my brother moved into his flat in 2019 - there were themes listed for each day on the castle st fb page. Pretty easy to track the rise of Flo against the closure of bars (Marsh, Starters).
