RedArkady Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 So various ancient objects/places are described as being made from a mysterious black, oily stone: The Seastone ChairThe base of the HightowerThe 40-foot high toad statue on the Isle of Toads (creepy)The city of Yeen Did I miss any? I recall one maester suggesting an ancient sea-people might be responsible. I think elsewhere a lizard-people are mentioned. Along with the maze-makers, I loved these little hints at a more ancient civilisation than even Valyria or Ghis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
