Le tre novelle che vedono come protagonisti il cavaliere errante Dunk e il suo piccolo scudiero Egg, che dietro la sua testa pelata e i suoi occhi violetti nasconde un grande segreto, sono molte care, a George R.R. Martin, cosa di cui non fa mai mistero. Nel 1997, Robert Silverberg gli propone di partecipare alla sua antologia Legends (aveva riunito più autori, tutti i nomi illustri, categoria a cui il nostro autore sosteneva di non appartenere, all'epoca), ed è qui che nasce il primo racconto che li vede protagonisti, Il cavaliere errante. Non lo sapeva, ma proprio quello avrebbe dato una svolta decisiva alla sua vita. In questo episodio analizziamo la prima parte proprio de Il cavaliere errante, andando a conoscere il giovane Dunk, un giovane scudiero che improvvisamente si ritrova senza il suo mentore, Ser Arlan di Pennytree, cavaliere ormai anziano, morto per un raffreddore. Cosa fare? Unirsi ad una Guardia Cittadina? Trovare un altro cavaliere da servire? Darsi al brigantaggio? No, fortunatamente, Arlan in punto di morte sembra aver dato a Dunk tutto ciò che ha sempre voluto: il cavalierato. L'ora è giunta per iniziare la sua vita da cavaliere. E per fortunata coincidenza, c'è un torneo indetto in quel di Ashford... Tra ideali romantici e tropes mantenuti e sovvertiti, conoscenze fortunate (e non), marionette, libellule, eroi leggendari e draghi, la prima novella (e le altre a seguire, c'è da dire) si rivela un vero e proprio capolavoro firmato da George R.R. Martin. Così tanto che ne abbiamo parlato troppo, ed è per questo che per oggi avrete solo la parte 1.

Send us a textDaenerys comes to the realization that she cannot face her internal and external threats alone, and must marry Hizdahr zo Loraq. Simon and Mackelly fuss over the bride-to-be.Chapter Review:Daenerys Targaryen clashes with Admiral Groleo. He wants her to unleash the dragons on the blockading ships, she wants him to build ships and fight her enemies. Thus far Hizdahr zo Loraq has been true to his word: 26 days with no murders.Skahaz mo Kandaq, the Shavepate, has been spying on Hizdahr and reports that he has visited 11 of the great families' pyramids. The Shavepate is convinced that Hizdahr has this kind of control because he is in control - and thinks a bit of firm questioning would draw out a confession. Daenerys doesn't doubt Skahaz' ability to extract information, she just doubts its usefulness.The Green Grace reports that a rider has come from Astapor bringing the Bloody Flux with him. More refugees follow and Daenerys determines that they will be kept outside the city walls with an attempt made to keep the sick away from the healthy. Brown Ben Plum returns and also encourages Dany to use her dragons.

Send us a textDavos isn't dead. The Manderlys' animosity was all for show. They know the Freys lie. But they're not ready to join Stannis yet. However, if Davos can find and return Rickon Stark, then that would seal the deal. Mackelly and Simon debate who that might be.Chapter Review:Davos Seaworth is kept waiting for his execution. The gaoler refers to him as “The Dead Man,” but he's fed and has more than decent accommodation. After several days Robett Glover comes and takes him through secret and circuitous means to a chamber within earshot of obvious festivities.They're joined by Lord Wyman Manderly. He apologizes for the disrespect that Davos was shown. But while the Lannister, Frey, and Bolton alliance held his remaining son Wylis, he was forced to play along. But the feast that can be heard is to welcome the heir home - and Lord Wyman can let the mask slip a little. A ruse was pulled, a criminal was made to look like Davos and executed - his head and hands were displayed above the walls, heavily tarred and distorted with an onion in the mouth.Davos is ready to seal the alliance between Stannis and the Manderlys. But lord Wyman's not there yet - the Bolton's are cementing their claim to the North by marrying Arya Stark, but courtesy of Theon's former squire Wex, they know where Rickon Stark is. If Davos can return their rightful liege lord to them, then Stannis will have his ally. Cannibal-island is the destination - sounds fun!Characters/Places/Names/Events:Davos Seaworth - Hand of the King to King Stannis Baratheon.Stannis Baratheon - King of the Seven Kingdoms.Wyman Manderly - Lord of White Harbor.Wylis Manderly - Heir to White Harbor, former captive of the Lannisters.Wynafryd Manderly - Elder daughter of Wylis and Leona.Wylla Manderly - Younger daughter of Wylis and Leona.Rhaegar Frey - A Frey.Jared Frey - Another Frey.Robett Glover - Brother of Galbart Glover, Master of Deepwood Motte.Rickon Stark - Youngest son of Ned and Catelyn Stark.Wex - Former squire of Theon Greyjoy, one of the few survivors of the Sack of Winterfell.White Harbor - Only city in the North and its chief port.White Knife - Major river in the North that empties into the Bite at White Harbor.

Casa Harlaw è una delle casate più potenti delle Isole di Ferro. Con una storia antica, dove sono stati re di sale, re di roccia e anche Alti Re delle Isole di Ferro, nella storia corrente governano indiscussi sull'omonima isola. Sono tanti, con diversi rami cadetti, e sembrano anche (quasi tutti, almeno) uniti, cosa che in certi tempi a Westeros sembra essere più unica che rara. Con i Greyjoy hanno un legame profondo: Alannys Harlaw è la moglie dell'ormai defunto Balon Greyjoy, e madre dei suoi figli. E il corrente lord di casata, Rodrik, ha sempre provato a consigliare il cognato con saggezza (farsi ascoltare è un'altra storia, ma è pur sempre di Balon che stiamo parlando).Ora come ora, gli Harlaw rappresentano una cosa, per il re delle Isole di Ferro nuovo di zecca, Euron Greyjoy: una minaccia. Innanzitutto, sono in prima linea per il sostegno della nipote Asha Greyjoy, nonostante l'abbia vinta lui, l'acclamazione di re, e l'ha pure fatta sposare per minare la sua pretesa al trono del mare. Lord Rodrik, chiamato "il Lettore" a causa del suo amore per la lettura (e la sua intelligenza) non si fa problemi a contraddirlo, anche davanti agli altri uomini di ferro, il suo erede Harras, detto "il Cavaliere", continua a distinguersi in battaglia, e rompere l'unità di casata si rivela un'impresa decisamente difficile.In questo episodio, andiamo ad analizzare la casata e i suoi personaggi di rilievo, per capire il loro ruolo in TWOW e oltre, e se davvero il timore che Euron Greyjoy prova nei loro confronti è giustificato.Art by Nacho Molina (Fantasy Flight Games)Link utili:1) https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/1eeyct6/spoilers_extended_house_harlaw_heraldry/2) https://goodqueenaly.tumblr.com/post/149750948653/house-words-wednesdays-house-harlaw3) https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/an7zzs/alannys_harlaw_is_the_key_to_theon_becoming_theon/4) https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/ny9f8x/spoilers_extended_the_true_tragedy_of_theon/5) https://www.tumblr.com/jedimaesteryoda/621817555746799616/the-reader-the-crows-eyes-true-nemesis6) https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/10ivab1/spoilers_extended_overturning_a_kingsmoot_rodrik/7) https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/k9dol7/spoilers_extended_rodrik_the_readers_role_in_twow/8) https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/68alwa/spoilers_extended_harras_the_heir_bend_beneath/9) https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/124mr3u/spoilers_extended_asha_the_heirs_of_harlaw/Supportate il canale in cambio di contenuti esclusivi: https://www.patreon.com/LaCittadellaQui trovate tutti i link del canale e dei suoi host: https://linktr.ee/LaCittadellaSupportate il canale in cambio di contenuti esclusivi: https://www.patreon.com/LaCittadellaQui trovate tutti i link del canale e dei suoi host: https://linktr.ee/LaCittadella

Send us a textJon makes a controversial choice for his ranging crew, gets unexpectedly bested in the yard, gets even more unexpected news out of Barrowtown, and receives a pair of impactful prophecies from Melisandre. Jenny and Mackelly break down Jon's busy day.Chapter Review:Lord Commander Jon Snow has commanded nine Night's Watch brothers to range north of the Wall. One of those nine is Ser Alliser Thorne, who is not happy about the assignment. He tells Jon that if he dies by an Other's blade, he'll be back for Jon as a wight. Afterward in the yard, Jon spars with three green recruits at once, easily defeating them. Rattleshirt is unimpressed and challenges Jon to fight a real man. When the fight begins, Jon is surprised by Rattleshirt's prowess with a sword. Eventually, the wildling has to be dragged off Jon.Clydas interrupts with a letter from Barrowtown bearing the seal of House Bolton. Warden of the North Roose Bolton has returned and requires fealty from the lords of the kingdom. He also wishes for their attendance to celebrate the marriage of his son Ramsay to… Arya Stark. Jon is stunned. He thought his sister died in King's Landing.That evening he runs into Melisandre alone in the yard. She foretells him that his sister Arya will arrive at Castle Black, fleeing her forced marriage. She then bonds with Ghost, much to Jon's surprise. She tells Jon that three of the rangers he sent north will not survive. Jon will only find their eyeless heads. When these two prophecies come true, she hopes Jon will have faith in her and let her help his sister. Characters/Places/Names/Events:Jon Snow - Bastard son of Ned Stark.

Send us a textQuentyn Martell and his traveling companions joined up with the Windblown to get to Slaver's Bay. Now it's time to ditch their new friends and turn their cloaks to Daenerys Targaryen's side of the war. The timing of the move is integral. However, before they can make their break, they catch a break that makes their task a whole lot easier. Simon and Mackelly offer them fresh brown cloaks to turn.Chapter Review:Prince Quentyn Martell and his traveling companions survived the siege of Astapor, having signed up with the sellsword company the Windblown to earn passage to Slaver's Bay. Now, under the direction of the Yunkai generals, the company is turning their sights to Meereen. Quentyn knows it's time to desert before they end up fighting against the very woman he's been sent to marry. The task is easier said than done, as they have made friends in the company. Making matters worse, rumors are spreading around the camps about the horrible atrocities Daenerys has committed, causing the prince to second-guess his marriage plans.The Tattered Prince, the leader of the Windblown, has been given instructions to keep Astapori refugees away from Yunkai, as many carry the bloody flux. They are to turn them back to Astapor or drive them toward Meereen. However, the sellsword captain has his own plans. He assembles many Westerosi-born members of the company and orders them to secretly defect to Dany's side. He figures their Westerosi roots will make a good cover story for their defection to the Targaryen queen. That way, whichever side emerges the victor, the Windblown will come out on top.Characters/Places/Names/Events:Quentyn Martell - "Frog" - Eldest son, and second child of Prince Doran Martell of Dorne.Gerris Drinkwater - "Dink" - Quentyn's companion.Archibald Yronwood - “Greenguts” - Final member of the trio.Windblown - Sellsword company that has entered the fight against Daenerys Targaryen.Tattered Prince - Captain of the Windblown.Daenerys Targaryen - Last remaining descendent of the royal Targaryen line, Stormborn, Mother of Dragons, claimant to the Iron Throne of Westeros.

They are led to the commander's tent. Within Homeless Harry Strickland is bathing his sore toes, Connington is not impressed. He'd been uncertain of his reception as he had left the company in disgrace a dozen years earlier. However, the assembled captains appear to be aware of the ruse and the contract with Ilyrio Mopatis to fight for Young Griff. The prince's true identity is revealed to a lack of surprise. Talk turns to how they might get him to Daenerys. All routes seem problematic. Eventually Aegon himself offers an alternative. He is the only dragon they need. Why not go to Westeros and stake his claim there? Daenerys can have Meereen. The captains rally to this call and Connington is impressed by his young charge. Aegon is taken to meet the men, with the Young Griff persona back in place. Meanwhile Connington examines his fingers that are clearly showing the signs of greyscale.

The Bridge of Dream chapter (Tyrion Five from A Dance with Dragons) delves deeply into a number of the key themes in the series. These include the subjective nature of reality, the non-thought of received ideas, and the unreliability of language/communication. These issues are central to the human experience, and their treatment in this chapter makes the case for a moral reading of the text. This is a response to the Bridge of Dream episode from Boiled Leather Audio Hour. Those guys are legendary ASOIAF podders, so please do give a listen to their work. The "non-thought of received ideas" I first encountered in Milan Kundera's Art of the Novel. He was responding to Flaubert's earlier, posthumously published Dictionary of Received Ideas. Both get at the cost and consequence to the individual and society as a whole when critical engagement with ideas fails. Please do check them out. Thank you for listening!
