Night Gathers Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 and bravvos is a colder climate that cant grow much but imports..If I remember correctly, there aren't any trees growing in Braavos, so wood is very expensive. So no, they don't grow much, but imports, like you said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Martin Stark Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 oh....ok. no wonder dont remember anything bout him then. Thanks. That was a thought but just couldnt remember for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yolkboy Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Well, Braavos is the same latitude as the Vale of Arryn, while Pentos is the same latitude as Blackwater Bay and the Crownlands, so I'd not say they have very different climates. Maybe average climate to both of them. Now Myr, Lys, Tyrosh and Volantis - I think that's where it gets Dornish/Tropical/Equatorial.yes thanks for this, i was wondering if the latitudal lines on earth held the same relevance in georges world, so very reassuring. Thanks! I think they do too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Eyrie is cold but I dont see any indication of the Vale being cold lower down. Pentos we know has cherry trees so it is temperate.Myr Lys and Volantis are also on the seacoast so would be affected by currents as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FittleLinger Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 yes thanks for this, i was wondering if the longitudinal lines on earth held the same relevance in georges world, so very reassuring.

I think they do too.here is the best speculative map I've seen.http://thewertzone.blogspot.com/2012/03/most-complete-asoiaf-world-map-yet.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no, they don't grow much, but imports, like you said.Braavos so far makes $$ from banking, insurance, and perhaps seafood. Maybe it also gets money from religious institutions. For sure the FM add to the economy - a prayer might be pretty pricey. As a port it would also get $$ for use of the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Night Gathers Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 AFFC: Samwell III "There's no more wood." Dareon had paid the innkeep double for a room with a hearth, but none of them had realized that wood would be so costly here. Trees did not grow on Braavos, save in the courts and gardens of the mighty. Nor would the Braavosi cut the pines that covered the outlying islands around their great lagoon and acted as windbreaks to shield them from storms. Instead firewood was brought in by barge, up the rivers and across the lagoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon rr stark Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 No he actually arrived a bit lateOk. how do we know that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon rr stark Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 It's never mentioned who led the van in the Battle of the Trident. After the fighting, Robert was wounded so Ned took the army and marched on King's Landing. He lead the van in that march, only to arrive at King's Landing to find Tywin Lannister sacking the city.Thank you thats where I got the idea of him in the Van Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Doug Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Ok. how do we know that?I don't think that's correct. The only thing we have heard of Ned and his Northerners were how fast they move. Besides, Robert's army was united after the Battle of the Bells, so they would have been together the whole time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You got the most traditional ones. But add Pyke, Hill and Storm.We also have Lollys's bastard son named Tyrion Tanner. Although that could just be a jest because she was raped behind the tanning shop. But we also have Daemon Blackfyre, who took his name after the sword.

Mother of Dragons Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Thanks! Hill was the name I couldnt remember, & I'd forgotten about Pyke&Storm. Hill is Tarly's region? Or just the name of his holdings (Horn Hill?)...nm Tarly is a Southron, I'd forgotten.Don't know of any Lannister bastards, I was curious about that.

Don't know who his parents are though, pretty sure he claimed he was a Lannister bastard. But you are right, Horn Hill is the seat of Randyll Tarly, and they are from the Reach.

Or just the name of his holdings (Horn Hill?)...nm Tarly is a Southron, I'd forgotten.Well, the Lannisters are southron as well. But House Tarly is in the Reach, as King Doug mentioned, so their bastards would usually be given the name Flowers.Don't know of any Lannister bastards, I was curious about that.We actually do know of at least one Lannister bastard. Her name is Joy Hill. She's Gerion's daughter.did someone actually melt Barristans swort an put it to the others on the throne?No, I don't think so. Why would they?
