didn't think that would happen. would have thought more drame/tension between cersai and iron bank?
Yes, in a confrontation between him and Varys in one of the earlier seasons he described chaos as a ladder that those at the bottom could use to climb up to the top.
It was a very nice battle.
I didn't catch them saying that the gold had made it just that they had to get the entire caravan across the river.gold made it to kl.
I don't believe she took High Garden she just sacked the caravan.
Yeah not much left. If her intention was to acquire food then that seems to be a failure and there is no more left in the Reach as they harvested it all to put it on the caravan.
One of us misunderstood, I am hoping it was not me. Jon said if she melted castles or roasted cities, it would be more of the same. What she did was different. Like the difference between firebombing Dresden and Schwartzkopf's highway of death. She targeted only enemy military personnel and logistical support, not civilians.
Yeah, on some level, Jon must be enjoying Davos being the good uncle he never had.Fewer ...
Glad to see Davos channeling Stanis
This is exactly what happened. She wanted to go perch a dragon on the Red Keep and fumigate the premises Reign of Fire style but was advised against it.
I thought that was probably the best part. It just had a very raw feel to it. Oddly enough, I wasn't a huge fan of the Battle of the Bastards with its weird death mound quicksand thing.
I couldn't tell what the hell he said. What was the point of him saying that to him?
Someone mentioned above that Littlefinger used that same line with Varys earlier in the series. In other words, it's a line to set Littlefinger on edge a bit. It's quite likely that Bran knows exactly where the dagger came from.
That's the one quibble I have with the episode. In one scene she's complaining that she can't feed her army and in the next she's targeting the logistical support. WTF was she burning the supplies when there was still an army to deal with? You burn the soldiers and you take their food. You don't burn the food first and then swing around to go after the men.
Littlefinger said it to Varys awhile ago. Bran is playing games with Littlefinger, "i got my 3 eyes on you snake!"
Yes, it was something Littlefinger said, word for word.
That part confused me a bit. I thought the only people that knew of the "Children of the Forrest" were The three eyed raven artist formally known as Bran. I probably forgot, or missed something, but I could have sworn that when they introduced the characters they mentioned something along the lines of they were up there for so long with the old Three Eyed Raven that they were forgotten by man. I don't recall anyone talking about them other than the group that was with the CotF so Jon talking about them struck me odd. From what i can tell, he's not even aware that Bran is alive.
Littlefinger's whole shtick is gaining power by sowing chaos. That's how he became what he is from nothing. There was an episode in the first couple of seasons where Cersi makes comment on how he was nothing regardless of if he made his own house complete with sigil.
