Edited audio from the livestream on March 5th 2019. Aziz goes through the life of Aegon III, which is filled with an enormous number of parallels to Jon Snow. It can tell us a lot about what's coming for him...

Edited audio from the livestream on Feb 26th 2019.
The life of Alyn Velaryon, adventurer, diplomat, commander, would-be dragontamer, hero, savior... All before he was 21!
At the usual time of Tuesday 6 PM EST, 11 PM GMT, we have Alyn Velaryon.
He tried to tame a dragon, commanded the largest navy in Westeros, married a Princess, recovered a lost Prince, befriended a Pirate King, fought the Braavosi... and that's nowhere near all.
Post questions here if you have them, hope to see you there!

A Dance with Dragonlore!
It's time to stop spending all this time on silly weak humans and focus instead on flying, fire-breathing, arch-reptiles. There's a reason so many of the dragons were named after Valyrian gods!
