All Men were Children once: Children are of The Forrest, First Men are of The Tree. And the meaning of the seed. Corn! Corn! Corn!

EndGame of Thrones: Part 17.

For Children to grow up, you must feed them first.
The Forrest that The Children are from is The Garden of Edenos.

A forest is a place that contains many trees. But two of them were different. In The Forrest-Garden of Edenos there were two trees that are forbidden and gods Children could not eat of them in this Forrest:

- The White Weirwood of Knowledge - The Black Ironwood of Eternal Life

There were two trees that were forbidden trees. You can eat the fruit of any tree in the place but not of this or of that one. Tree number one was the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, of duality. Tree number two was the tree of the knowledge of eternal life.

God kicked them out of the Garden and put at the gate two door guardians, with a flaming sword between them. And thats the explanation of why were out here in the cold and not in the Garden. Christianity and Judaism are religions of exile: Man was thrown out of the Garden.

"The tree of knowledge of good and evil [The white Weirwood] is the tree going down into multiplicity, and the tree of eternal life [The white Ironwood] is that of going from multiplicity to unity. It's the same tree in two directions."

Joseph Campbell, A Joseph Campbell Companion: Reflections on the Art of Living

Out of the Weirwood come many individual First Men. Out of the Ironwood He of Many Faces is born.

In The Garden of Eden:

The First Men were the First Children of the Forrest of Edenos to eat of the Weirwood of Knowledge. This caused a transformation in not only their physical makeup but their lifespans and perspectives.

Men ate of the Weirwood paste (cough cough)

First Men: ate of the Weirwood Tree of Knowledge and fostered biological life that created a multiplicity of individuality that have short lives but gain the knowledge of good and evil

The Great Other: ate of the Ironwood Tree of Eternal life, The
Great Other became He of Many Faces.

The first, First Men were Children of The Forrest. But after eating of the Weirwood tree transformed them a Child to a grown First Men because knowledge makes you grow up.

The First men were the literally the first men because they were the first Children of The Forrest to grow up. Knowledge literally made them bigger people.

But all magic had a price as we learn time and time again. The price we paid for the knowledge and being able to see through the trees not only seeing the present but the past and future. Was a steep price. It cut the lives for the First men to fractions of what they once were when they were Children.

That is why Children live so much longer than First Men. But The Great Other, who ate of Ironwood, the Other tree can live forever unless killed probably by an Ironwood weapon, as Weirwood weapons are so powerful against men. That is why the North Grove must not fall. That's where the most magical Ironwood are.

The First Men learned that malevolent powers have used the trees to spy and worse on them. That was the cause of the first War against The Children. The Children although they may be wise and learned have not had the taste of knowledge of good and evil that is in the Weirwood. Countless Greenseers have gone through the trees, the Children lacking the interval compass blindly follow the Greenseers of The Trees, just as smallfolk almost blindly follow wonderful leaders like Roose, Ramsay and Joffrey. They often have little choice in the matter.

Woe is the day... and woe is the Night when the most powerful Greenseer ever known enters the The Weirwood of Knowledge in the world and he has lost his soul to The Other of the Tree of Eternal Life.


He remembered who he was all too well; Bran the boy, Bran the broken. Better Bran the beastling.


n the Nights King story we learned:

"When he gave his seed to her he gave his soul as well."


After Bran fell from the tower. He died. The only reason he lives is because he made a deal with the Other-Devil. Lets look at Brans dream after falling:

It was cold here in the darkness. There was no sun, no stars, only the ground below coming up to smash him, and the grey mists, and the whispering voice. He wanted to cry.

Not cry. Fly. It was cold here in the darkness. There was no sun, no stars, only the ground below coming up to smash him, and the grey mists, and the whispering voice. He wanted to cry.

Not cry. Fly.

"Help me," he said.

I'm trying, the crow replied. Say, got any corn?
Bran reached into his pocket as the darkness spun dizzily around him. When he pulled his hand out, golden kernels slid from between his fingers into the air. They fell with him.

The crow landed on his hand and began to eat.

Lets pause this for a moment and look at line about the Nights King:

"When he gave his seed to her he gave his soul as well."

Corn! Corn! Corn! Seed! Seed! Seed! And now back to Brans dream:

"I'll wake up when I hit the ground," Bran told the bird.

You'll die when you hit the ground, the crow said. It went back to eating corn.



You'll die when you hit the ground? Hmmm. Bran did hit the ground by the tower though.

In giving the crow (Bloodraven) the corn in his pocket, Bran literally gave him his seed, and gave up his soul to become reborn.

The story of the Nights King and his Queen:

"and when he gave his seed to her he gave his soul as well."

"Help me," he said.

I'm trying, the crow replied. Say, got any corn?
Bran reached into his pocket as the darkness spun dizzily around him. When he pulled his hand out, golden kernels slid from between his fingers into the air. They fell with him.

The crow landed on his hand and began to eat.


Bran has given his soul. Thats what Corn! Corn! Means. Corn is a seed. Bran has given Bloodraven the seed of his soul as in the Nights King story.

And this caused the Ice Dragon to take flight.

Bran saw himself flying in the sky as The Ice Dragon when he was in Summers skin. When he saw himself, he snarled.
