Lord of Moat Cailin Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I don't remember if this scene was in the books, but I was watchinf the show and Xaro told Dany that he had a safe made of Valyrian Stone, is that a thing? And if so, can it be made or is it a finite amount like Valyrian Steel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blind Beth the Cat Lady Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Yes, it's a thing. And like most of the other things it's way cooler in the books: http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Black_stone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSovereignGrave Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 You can't make it anymore, since it refers more to the way it's constructed and not what it's made of. The Valyrians would melt stone with dragonfire, and then shape it with sorcery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eiko Dragonhorn Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Yes, it's a thing. And like most of the other things it's way cooler in the books: http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Black_stone That's something different. Valyrian stone would be like what the Valyrian roads and Volantis' wall are made of. The Black Stone is older than Valyria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blind Beth the Cat Lady Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 That's something different IMO. Valyrian stone would be like what the Valyrian roads and Volantis' wall are made of. The Black Stone is older than Valyria. Very true, but it's a similar concept: stone melted with dragonfire and shaped by spells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSovereignGrave Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Very true, but it's a similar concept: stone melted with dragonfire and shaped by spells. The only ones that seem to be that way are Hightower and the Five Forts. The oily black stone is just weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blind Beth the Cat Lady Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Sure, but the wikki article differentiates between the oily and dragon-fused stone. I didn't see a separate entry for just fused stone or I would have used that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
