Celestial Smith chapter 38
Added 2025-02-17 13:07:53 +0000 UTCCelestial Smith chapter 38: Prelude to War
This is a short chapter, only 2k words. Migraine all day till i took some meds. Hate these things. Since i turned 25, damn things started up. Anyway, its also setting up the age old Ironborn question so there's that.
Go back to your ASOIAF history. Dig DEEP into the lore. And ask the question. Do the Ironborn deserve to live or not? That i leave to you.
Ill see you next chapter, gotta get home and lie down. As always, thank you for your support, even those who come and go. You were wonderful.

Honestly you could just pull an Assyrian and have them forcibly resettle what remains of the Ironborn to different areas throughout Westeros. That way you preserve the people but break them apart enough that they can't maintain a cohesive cultural identity down the generations. Then you can just set up a trading post in the Iron Islands.

2025-02-17 21:06:35 +0000 UTCGive the islands to owen it would make the south think they are tying up his resources and then joffrey could try to take it back later

2025-02-17 17:56:09 +0000 UTCHonestly letting another house take over will just cause the same thing to happen. The greyjoys and other ironborn houses follow the old ways like fanatics sometimes its better to scatter the remnants so they never rebuild

Now she will have an armada of sea wolves along with maybe Lyana mormont as a security force for sea travel! And it could be a lordship/ladyship that specifically goes to daughters

2025-02-17 13:42:59 +0000 UTCI would consider that there are slaves not half as broken and devoted as the Unsullied likely manning the oars and other duties on the ships of the slaver. Jon and Owen keep saying “no prisoners” but it should really be addressed.

2025-02-17 13:24:30 +0000 UTCI would argue that there are problematic Ironborn that need to be destroyed and those that can be brought into the future. Rodrik "the reader" Harlaw for example. Uproot and replace houses not willing to change, install a mainlander Lord Paramount, and go from there. Their drowned priests are one of the biggest problems and would need to be watched carefully.
