Skagos è uno dei luoghi più remoti di Westeros, una grande isola situata nel profondo Nord, al largo del Forte Orientale, oltre di essa solo il Mare dei Brividi. Isola rocciosa (non a caso, forse, il suo nome significa proprio "roccia", "pietra", nell'antica lingua dei Primi Uomini), circondata da correnti impetuose che fanno infrangere continuamente navi sulle sue coste, ha una reputazione sinistra... o meglio, ce l'hanno i suoi abitanti: gli skagosi, si dice, sono poco più che selvaggi, praticano ancora antiche e terribili usanze, organizzano macabri banchetti (mettiamola così) e si governano praticamente da soli, in eterno conflitto con l'autorità di Winterfell, tanto che una loro ribellione a Casa Stark si conta anche nella storia recente. L'unica cosa che non sembra essere fuori dall'ordinario è il loro aver addomesticato gli unicorni, enormi caproni lanosi con un grande corno che cresce dalla loro fronte, endemici dell'isola. Nonostante tutto questo, sembra che George R.R. Martin stia chiedendo al lettore di prestare attenzione: gli skagosi praticano commercio, hanno lord e leggi, nonostante ciò che viene detto chi ha avuto modo di incontrarli non ne sembra essere così orripilato come dovrebbe, forse forse non tutto è come sembra... e The Winds of Winter ci porterà dritti dritti sull'isola, perché è lì che si trova Rickon Stark, che Wyman Manderly è disperato nel voler recuperare, tanto da ingaggiare Davos Seaworth per il suo passato. Lui, solo lui, è in grado di navigare in quelle acque oscure. Cosa troverà Davos a Skagos? Cosa scopriranno i lettori con lui? In questo episodio, proviamo a fare chiarezza, andando a parlare non solo del piccolo Stark e del suo metalupo, ma anche di segreti che possono svelare la verità dietro le leggende che circondano l'isola...Art by Eddie MendozaSupportate 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

Check out Cam's latest novel / audio drama here! Tyrion Lannister might be the most consequential character in A Song of Ice And Fire, so what does it mean when GRRM writes a chapter from his perspective where almost nothing happens? In this episode we're diving deep into the many misdirections of these apparently simple "set-up" chapters to find a litany of hidden prophecies and provocations. Maggie explores the contradictions of Tyrion's dual identity as court jester and power player. Cam continues our couplet comparisons to analyze the nature of combat, the evolving power of sigils, and the recurrence of ghost towns. We work together to question the series' unflinching commitment to side characters and reflect on GRRM's increasing narrative interest in both collateral damage and, more broadly, consequences.

Spoilers, profanity, Jaime x Brienne. Dany's stuck in Meereen and so are we, and no one is happy about it. Guile calls these chapters Dany's office hours, and it's hard to disagree. Does anyone blame a fifteen year old for picking the least bad of fifty bad options? And look, GRRM, we agree that the Meereenese knot is indeed a quagmire, but if it was caused by a pacing problem couldn't we have sidestepped it altogether? A Song of Ice and Fire.

Spoilers, profanity, Jaime x Brienne. In this Patreon exclusive, we deep dive on a listener prompt about the use of the phrase "I dreamed of you" in GRRM's expanded universe. Two of the characters who use this dream are Targaryens (or Targ adjacent) and two are Lannisters. Does it mean anything? Is the phrase for the dreamer or the dreamed of? Are two out of three instances romantic? Where does Tyrion fit in this mess? And does anything really beat Jaime saying it to Brienne? A Song of Ice and Fire. Special Episode - I dreamed of you?

Casa Karstark è una delle casate più potenti del Nord, tra i principali vassalli di Casa Stark, di cui è un ramo cadetto, essendo stata fondata da un figlio minore di Winterfell, Karlon. Il legame di sangue e non solo tra le due casate è molto forte, ma nella storia recente diversi sono gli avvenimenti che sembrano averli allontanati... e che sembrano anche aver decimato la casata, del suo ramo principale ne sono rimasti infatti solo due membri: Harrion, il corrente Lord di Karhold, e sua sorella ed erede apparente Alys. Certo, questi fratelli hanno anche altri parenti... ma sono parenti ambiziosi, che vogliono mettere non solo le mani su lordship, castello e possedimenti, ma voglio ancora di più.In questo episodio andremo a ripercorrere la storia di questi soli d'inverno, cercando di capire cosa succederà nell'immediato TWOW e provando a rispondere a una domanda che in una saga come Le Cronache del Ghiaccio e del Fuoco effettivamente non è poi così semplice: qual è il loro futuro?Art by Darko StojanovićLink utili:1) https://www.westeros.org/Citadel/SSM/Entry/Asshai.com_Interview_in_Barcelona/2) https://cantuse.wordpress.com/2014/06/06/counterintelligence-using-the-bolton-machine-against-itself/#more-1093) https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/103yx8u/the_showdown_at_the_tree_the_karstark_replacement/4) https://nobodysuspectsthebutterfly.tumblr.com/post/99808805638/hi-there-i-was-reading-about-the-karstark5) https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/yfp1iy/spoilers_extended_future_of_house_karstark/6) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmWT6hQna_k7) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71BbRH4o5Ho&t=1s00:00 Intro e premesse01:23 La storia di Casa Karstark18:11 L'immediato TWOW59:09 I fratelli Karstark e i misteri del Nord01:11:38 Ma... qual è il futuro dei Karstark?01:30:31 ConclusioniSupportate 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

Check out Cam's latest novel / audio drama here! Chapter by chapter fantasy discussions lead us in some very strange directions. In this episode, Maggie does a deep dive into our characters' myopic, almost spiritual interpretations of the comet hanging overhead and then (not ten minutes later) she investigates the symbolism and historical implications of GRRM coding his aspiring kings with an assortment of precious metals. Cam explores the dueling mysticism and metaphor of the series' endless parade of ghosts before tackling the strange structural similarity of these two chapters and what could very well be a sweeping statement about cycles of history, dual identities, and the unavoidably tragic deaths of principled men.

Check out Cam's latest novel / audio drama here! How extensive is the connection between the Starks and their direwolves? Is it a metaphor about house sigils and "the pack," or is GRRM suggesting something more monstrous and surreal? In this episode, we're chasing the direwolves of 'A Song of Ice and Fire' across space and time, culminating in a brand new theory about the creatures that Cam has dubbed "weirwolves". We also return to Maggie's (increasingly metatextual) Comet Corner and reflect on the brutally contemporary fascism of the Goldcloaks. Finally, we investigate the idea that both the books and the show slowly abandon the story's most surreal and fantastical elements.

Danny and Kevin return to the Seven (or is it Nine?) Kingdoms for a light-hearted adventure with a guy that's really tall and a kid that's really small. Light-hearted, at least, by GRRM's world-weary and cynical standards. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, which this podcast will hereafter refer to as "Dunk and Egg", is a wonderful departure from both the original show's grim and murky tone and Hot D's attempt to just do that again but more boring-er. And there is a massive hog in it. Follow us on Instagram at coffeeanddeathpod or email us at coffeeanddeathsticks@gmail.com

Stefan discusses with Quinn and Kuba about 'realism' in A Song of Ice and Fire and more generally in Medievalist Media, what Medievalism even means, and the disjuncture between GRRM's approach to 'realism' and what we see in the work of Brandon Sanderson (We'll actually probably talk about how Hot Pie is a Yi Ti landing strip) Read the weekly newsletter, "THE TIR SOUND OFF" here: https://www.patreon.com/collection/1853497 Check out our new bi-weekly series, "The Crisis Papers" here: https://www.patreon.com/bitterlakepresents/shop Thank you guys again for taking the time to check this out.
