Using religion to further his own political goals? Burn the heretic!Akio said:
Like that's never been done before!Hypnos said:
What are you implying?...Akio said:
How many people use the faith to get political power. In game of thrones the original high septon was a fat fuck who ate like a king while the city starved, the Targaryens originally only converted to the faith to connect them to their conquered subjects, initially seeing the dragon above gods. The faith has been abused multiple times as a way to gain comforts or political reasonsHypnos said:
And when did that ever work out for those people? The High Septon was ripped apart (Well one of them was there were a couple but they mostly suffered similar fates) and Aegon lost his sister and favorite wife, the Targs lost their dragons and later their kingdom. The faith works, just very, very slowly.Akio said:
In those lore they still have their kingdoms and Aegon lost his sister to the Dornish, fuck the faith. Do you know how hard it is to shoot a dragon in mid flight down?Hypnos said:
Not for much longer, and it's easy to shoot down a dragon when your arm is guided by the warrior himself, I think it tells you something about the mothers mercy that the faith will even help out the Dornish from time to time.Akio said:
lol not that it helped them much. The invasion just stepped up a notch. Apparently civilian lose of life was staggering though they never gave up till Aegon capitulated and went back to his chairHypnos said:
Hey, the Seven helped out with the dragon problem, after something like that they though the Dornish could handle themselves.Akio said:
Their were 2 other dragons. The faith killed the smallest and least warlike dragon xD left us with two very angry warrior Targaryens to deal withHypnos said:
This is why the Seven don't help the Dornish that often, when life gives you lemons you make lemonade, you don't complain to life that you'd have preferred limes because the limeade industry is larger.Akio said:
I need him to go down to the Reach and fetch his daughter from the Tarlys before the Lannister wedding, preferably without being seen by Helyon Tarly.National said:
Oh no taking down a dragon is fine, I'm just saying we Dornish like to make our own fates xD still wonder if those dragonbones were ever made into bows, we returned the skull but kept the restHypnos said:
You can make your own fates, just rest assured knowing that if you live a holy life the seven will have your back*. I would like to thing they still have the entire Dragon skeleton (Save the head) just hanging somewhere in the basement to freak out children.Akio said:
Oh don't get you're hoped up you're still on my list. you're death just isn't meant to be my first killing. I have to warm up first.Hypnos said:
Probably the Hellhos still have it. They shot it downHypnos said:
The North probably wont be down in time for the siege at this rate.Rhosvyn said:
Oh that is unfortunate, and sorry I wasn't sure if the Tullys were with the baratheons or notHypnos said:
The Tullys are the Baratheons at the moment since Walder's giving them more men than they themselves can provide, if it wasn't for him even the Barathons wouldn't be with the Baratheons since Breaden and Rory want to murder each other, I'm incredibly offended that you wouldn't remember the greatest Lords Paramount in the realm.Rhosvyn said:
Viserys will end up as a hood ordement at this rate I sayTheAncientCenturion said:
Watch your tongue, peasant. Viserys will crush these stunted fools if they march against him.Akio said:
