Hurt 4

and for Jay Stark

1. On the morning after the battle, the crows had feasted on victors and vanquished alike, as once they had feasted on Rhaegar Targaryen after the Trident. How much can a crown be worth, when a crow can dine upon a king? 6

2. The waves may break upon the mountain, yet still they come, wave upon wave, and in the end only pebbles remain where once the mountain stood. And soon even the pebbles are swept away, to be ground beneath the sea for all eternity. 10

3. Perhaps we can fly. All of us. How will we ever know unless we leap from some tall tower? No man ever truly knows what he can do unless he dares to leap. 9

4. Who knows more of gods than I? Horse gods and fire gods, gods made of gold with gemstone eyes, gods carved of cedar wood, gods chiseled into mountains, gods of empty air... I know them all. I have seen their peoples garland them with flowers, and shed the blood of goats and bulls and children in their names. And I have heard the prayers, in half a hundred tongues. Cure my withered leg, make the maiden love me, grant me a healthy son. Save me, succor me, make me wealthy... protect me! Protect me from mine enemies, protect me from the darkness, protect me from the crabs inside my belly, from the horselords, from the slavers, from the sellswords at my door. Protect me from the Silence. Godless? Why, Aeron, I am the godliest man ever to raise sail! You serve one god, Damphair, but I have served ten thousand. From Ib to Asshai, when men see my sails, they pray. / They pray to trees and golden idols and goat-headed abominations. False gods... / Just so, and for that sin I kill them all. I spill their blood upon the sea and sow their screaming women with my seed. Their little gods cannot stop me, so plainly they are false gods. I am more devout than even you, Aeron. Perhaps it should be you who kneels to me for blessing. 8(--)

5.“Who are you?” He had to hear her say it. “The question is, who are you?” “This is a dream.” “Is it?” She smiled sadly. “Count your hands, child.” 7(+)

6. Jaime," she said, tugging on his ear, "sweetling, I have known you since you were a babe at Joanna's breast. You smile like Gerion and fight like Tyg, and there's some of Kevan in you, else you would not wear that cloak... but Tyrion is Tywin's son, not you. I said so once to your father's face, and he would not speak to me for half a year. Men are such thundering great fools. Even the sort who come along once in thousand years.” 8

7. Septon Meribald’s Speech 11(+)

8. Vengeance. Justice. Fire and blood. 12

9. Do you want to die old and craven in your bed / How else? Though not till I'm done reading. 5

11. No fight is hopeless till it has been fought. 9

12. Crows will fight over a dead man's flesh and kill each other for his eyes. We had one king, then five. Now all I see are crows, squabbling over the corpse of Westeros. 7

18. Egg? Egg, I dreamed that I was old. 9

19. The rain feels good against my face, Sam. It feels like tears. Let me stay a while longer, I pray you. It has been a long time since last I wept. 5

21. Father brought them the gold they asked for, but they hung him anyway / Hanged, Ami. Your father was not a tapestry. 7

22. You play at being a servant, but in your heart you are a lord’s daughter. You have taken other names, but you wore them as lightly as you might wear a gown. Under them was always Arya. 7

23. I prefer my history dead. Dead history is written in ink, the living sort in blood. 6

24. I love you too, sweet sister. But you're a fool. A beautiful golden fool. 5

25. When I'm king in my own right, I'm going to outlaw beets. 3

26. Knowledge is a weapon, Jon. Arm yourself well before you ride forth to battle. 8

27. I see I need a thicker beard to cushion me from my queen's caresses. 6

28. My brother would have you be content with the cold and dismal north, my niece with even less ... but I shall give you Lannisport. Highgarden. The Arbor. Oldtown. The riverlands and the Reach, the kingswood and the rainwood, Dorne and the marches, the Mountains of the Moon and the Vale of Arryn, Tarth and the Stepstones. I say we take it all! I say, we take Westeros. 1

@SerSyvernofStokeworth:

the count for 8 should be at 14, not 13 ;)

EDIT:

the count is off by 2.

i 've found one, my vote for 8 (#93) wasn't taken into account by SerSyvernofStokeworth (#94) but i can't look for the other one right now, since i'm at work.
