- Why is Jamie Lannister so misunderstood? Does it always go back to Aerys, The Mad King???! Maybe. But Most peoples dislike of Jamie stems from Bran Stark. Jamie Lannister The Kingslayer is by far the most misunderstood character in Game of Thrones. It's No Secret he's one of my favorites if not my favorite male character in a song of ice and fire or Game of Thrones.. In this video I will explain why Jamie Lannister is so misunderstood and how he's actually one of the good guys!

Strangely enough, Jaime didn’t become my favorite character until I started reading the books and rewatching the whole series. It hit me like wrecking ball. He’s the epitome of the antihero to me. I believe he’s going to go all the way and be key in saving everyone.
PS Bartlett yeah book Jamie is definitely going to be an MVP! I LOVE his chapters!
PS Bartlett he is the kingslayer.. nightking.
PS Bartlett Jaime Lannister just as Darth Vader and others as such represent the concept of the "Fallen Knight" in fiction and it's really my favorite concept. Cause of the whole redemption element. And when it happens the former villain becomes even more of a hero than the hero. It's so rewarding to watch.
Ziad Raufman interesting. I do like Jaime and do believe he is a key player in things to come. He may die exonerating his name and memory but he wants it bad
@@ziadraufman9359 no NK in the books
Jamie already payed a blood price for pushing Brann..was captured for years, lost his hand (the biggest payment), even lost all his kids, his father, and now hes left cerccii. There were a are more smaller moments bit these were the main ones... The point is, Jamie has already payed for his wrong doings.. And then theres him stoping the burning of Kings Landing. I have no reason to hate him.
I fell for Jamie when he saved Brienne from rape. Up until then, I truly hated him, now he's on my good list. He is a man with honour, although he's flawed, messed up and conflicted, but he has tried to change, grow and has suffered horrible losses for his previous bad decisions. I think if he has a chance to meet Bran--Bran would understand or at least accept what Jamie did, because Jamie's pushing him out the window is what caused Bran to become the 3 Eyed Raven. Jamie prevented thousands of people from dying by killing King Aerys. He went to Dorne to save Myrcella. He saved his brother from execution, IMO the one bad thing he did in the show was pushing Bran out the window. Screwing his sister is wrong in our society, but in the society of GOT--it seems almost weirdly normal. Once he lost his hand, his entire character changed for the better.
Heather D I agree 100%
Heather D when he's far from Cersai, he does good. When he's close to her, he does bad.
Oh, I very much agree, Dallas Itzen- I hope he's out of King's Landing for good. If he dies, I want him to die in the arms of the woman who really DOES love him, my girl Brienne. He has changed so much in the show, and in the books as well. I'm on one of his chapters right now, where he is still calling Brienne "Wench" and tormenting her...but the Bloody Mummers/Brave Compnions have just entered the scene...we know how that changes things.
Jarl_Hopkins Wolf-Blood kids he didn’t care about, kids he just called ‘a squirt of seed in Cersei’s cunt’
Pushing a 7 year old so he could die something he doesn’t feel bad about he justifies it in his mind and to others that he was spying on them and for all his years in captivity he still justifies it as such
I like Jaime. So glad he finally woke up to Cersei
Gray...I am speechless. I have resisted being a committed Jamie fan because I misunderstood so much about him. No longer. Thank you.
novicetech1 your welcome!
I love your channel and I have a lot of love for Jamie. But I didn’t like the comparison of Bran to Joffrey. We cheered about Joffrey’s death based on his previous actions. If Rob pushed Joffrey out of a window without knowing anything about Joffrey, Rob would face same criticism.
Tremaine Slaughter what I was explaining is.. We knew Bran, We loved Bran. We saw things from a “Stark perspective” We didn’t know Jamie. What we knew of him we learned from the Starks, it was awful and judgmental.. We didn’t even get a look into Jamie’s thinking until Storms of Swords and by then most readers had already made up their minds.
GrayArea that’s fair. I personally think Jamie is arguably the most complete and full circle character on the show. Thanks for the reply!
It was right to hate him for his action. But he is not beyond redemption. To quote Stannis, his good deeds do not erase the bad ones, nor do the bad ones erase the good.
Ive always said to people when they haven’t read the books, it’s amazing because when you start there are characters you hate so much but learn to love. Loved your detailed explanation on it.
Another outstanding video...I just watched Talking Thrones new video..I'm so glad you all keep putting videos out about the greatest show in television history
The problem I have with Jamie is not just that he attempted the murder of a 7 year old, but the nonchalant attitude with which he did it. As if to say, "No big deal." He has never shown any real remorse or inner conflict over it. Then he threatens to smash Edmure Tully's baby against the castle wall if Edmure doesn't hand the castle over and makes it clear that it is not an idle threat. I guess this amazing arc he is on does not include avoiding the murder of children.
The best Jaime video I've seen for sure! My favourite character after reading the books too. The show don't allow you to empathise as much with him but he's the classic anti hero and example of "if you treat someone like a villain they'll act the villain."
I agree Jaime has one of the most well written character arcs. He is an extremely complicated and complexed character to pass judgement on. I don't know that he is more good than bad or vice versa and this for me adds to his intrigue. I can't wait to see the dialogue between he and Dany next season and I hope Jaime lives till the end..... Though I doubt he will
Shamun Freeman Me too , was hoping to see a conversation between jamie and Dany last season but we only got a few words. Two of my favourite characters. Its going to be tense as hell, I can't wait
Shamun Freeman Well thought out!
I think Jamie has trouble forgiving hisself but some of what he thinks he needs to forgive himself are not things that are not his to forgive.
Jamie is king
I remember the moment I first admitted that I was really starting to like Jamie, it was difficult to admit! He is so well written that yes the first time you read or watch he is absolutely hateable. But once he tells Brienne about what really happened with the Mad King you see that he was forced into the decisions he had to make, otherwise it would have meant the death of everyone, likely including himself. When he starts turning away from Cersei you start to silently cheer, and when he rejects her letter it's over, you're team Jamie! He's complicated.
I'm loving this video, great job Gray!
Excellent video Gray Area.. I have to concur with you one this, Jamie is one of my favorite characters... And you did him justice; well done.
Great video! Jamie is one of my favorite characters as well. He’s so grey, which makes him so real. I have loved his character arc and watching him finally walk away from Cersei’s clutches.
Jaime is also one of my favorite characters because of how flawed he is. I think one of the reason that he is hated more than other characters is because of his family. The Lannisters have no issue killing innocents, (Roberts bastards). While you see Ned pretty much die because he didn’t want to see Cersei’s and Jaime’s children die at Roberts hand. I hope that at the end of the story ,if Jaime lives, he gets to remake the Lannister name, just as his father did. Of course taking it in a direction that is guided by his new values no longer influenced by his father or sister.
Would have been nice right? But D&D suffered severe brain damage and wrote the rest of the series in a coma
Jaime and Tyrion being the Wardens of the West would be so cool, I hope this happens (at least with Jaime because maybe Tyrion won't survive because of his actions) in the books!
Jaime is the most realistic character that most of us *should* be able to relate to to as far as fucking up and making stupid stupid decisions but them redeeming or trying to redeem ourselves. Love him!
I LOVE this 'misunderstood' series, Gray. And it's especially helpful with characters who are a mystery to me. I don't think Jaime needs a much more redemption now that he's left Cersei, though he probably does need a heroic fulfillment arc (and romantic?) I think he's not going to survive next season, but he will deserve a place in the White Book.
I agree, Jamie is a superbly well written character with a fascinating arc & history. I disliked him at first not because of his deeds but because of his arrogance. When he showed more compassion to Brienne & allowed himself to be more human, I started to warm to him. Of course we learned more & more about him after that. And as it turned out, he was almost as abused by his father as Tyrion was. So no wonder his sister could manipulate him so easily.
One quibble. Robert wasn't universally considered a hero. He was often referred to as The Usurper. And that stuck in his craw. And I don't think he was presented as honorable in any way. Just the opposite in fact. And a crap king taboot.
My love for Jamie grows because of this video. Thanks for making me understand his character more. 🤘💚
Kamilya Casida 😘😘
I just realized Jamie & Tyrion will be together when he arrives. This will be the best mission Jamie's ever been on and with the best crew. Jon, Jamie, Tyrion, Danaerys, Tormund, Arya, Bran, Jorah, Brienne, Samwell, Theon, Beric etc. What a squad!!
Wow! I really enjoy your videos! I just subbed! Thanks!
Love all of your videos, keep up the great work.
You can really get the best picture of how big Winterfell is at the moment Jaime is about to push Bran, with the other parts of the Keep being quite far off in the distance. It's hard to imagine in the books, and it's hard in the show, just looking down, and around from the ground.
I don't usually comments because I have email length thoughts on most subjects. Thank you thank you thank you so much for what you do Grey, I truly appreciate you and all of the Great Game of Thrones dedicated channels!!
Jamie Lannister is a cool character his redemption is coming full circle in season eight
Jaime goes to Winterfell, probably meets Bran and might even save him.
This aged well
Oof
Now that it's all over...how pissed are u bout what they did to Jamie's character development? I won't ask about the rest of the entire season because we'd be here till 2021
Another great video. On behalf of your sweet summer children, we greatly thank you!
SUCH a great video. Thank you so much for this.
yeah his road to redemption started in second episode and continues. opponent's say king slayer. when the term "mad King" is heard I think most people think Alfred e Newman is who he killed. the fact he stayed loyal while the rest of his family were on the other side doesn't get him any points.
Most excellent job!!!👏👏👏👏 This is your best work. I believe it worthy of Samwell Tarleys work documenting Jamies heroics and redemption.
Very good video! You've earned yourself a new subscriber today :)
excellent video gray
U crushed it again Gray! Thank u!
Gray!!!!!!
Thanks again for providing this brilliant insight for the not so strong readers such as myself.
Gray! This editing! This is next-level. Excellent video.
+Julia West Thank you. You noticed.. that’s so cool 😁cuz I’ve been truly working on the editing!
GrayArea it really is noticeable. Not to say your earlier videos weren't good in that department too, just that you've really developed that side of it and it shows. Thanks for working hard to give us awesome content!
Love your content thank you.
Great vid! Except I was mad as Hades when Rob broke his oath. It was a horrible decision!! I'm still having trouble forgoing Jaime for pushing Bran, but I can see him saving Bran' s life before all is said and done.
Leave Jamie Lannister alone 😫!!!!!
BrokeBlackMan 94 u know that’s bae!
Haha best comment ever.
Darlene B OMG, I read it in his voiceeee!!! 😂
tonshmar lmao me too!!!

Jaime is one of the best written Charakters in Tv History
Ficel Official he right up there with Zuko another favorite of mine
Book history. They actually didn't write him well in the show AT ALL after his journey with Brienne and changed his arc from the books so he just sticks by Cersei seemingly endlessly like a lap dog. Jaime is quick to cut her off in the books. When he goes to the Riverlands she writes to him begging his help from the High Sparrow and he burns the letter
agree 100% I love Jaime since season 3 and he is one of my favourites characters, funny thing, alongside with arya :D i´m loving this Misunderstood series. hope you keep going!
Well presented, Grey!
Fantastic video. Thanks
Jaime, not Arya, has to save Bran from the Great Other, that is his redemption to me. This is a great analysis and thank you for using the books. Jaime is my favorite character so far through the 6 we have and in the show he’s also my favorite. They did a great job making him the Jaime we see in the books who we can empathize with. Such a human man, redundant I know, but so true. And he has to have something with Brienne, we all know he loves her and she loves him unless they all ready had that final moment, been a long time since I read DwD. Jaime loves to a fault, whoever he loves he will do all manner of things to save them, his family, Brienne, and I hope Brandon in the end. Ironically Jaime is the most honorable person in Westeros to me because when it really matters, he chooses what is right, not what is honorable; and that makes him a truly honorable man.
I know I’m late to the party but the bit about Jamie becoming the smiling Knight was such a good comparison.
i have studied the psychology and caracter of some rulers in Medieval Europe and the caracter of Jamie is very similar with Vlad Tepes also know as Dracula . The abuse of his father and the fact that he grew up at another castle away from home in the hands of the enemy, were rumors about he being rape and beat ,put to du horrible things to turkish slaves ,humans from his own country ,and he really make them pay for that ,them and the spiders from his court .Vlad was the second legitimate son of Vlad II Dracul, who was an illegitimate son of Mircea I of Wallachia. He won the moniker “Dracul” for his membership in the Order of the Dragon[8]. It was a militant fraternity founded by Holy Roman Emperor Sigismund. The Order of the Dragon was dedicated to halting the Ottoman advance into Europe. :)) He was a real Dragon
Adrian Vasile very interesting stuff!
Adrian Vasile GRR has said many times that characters are based on real history, so you're probably right
TX for this reply :)
TX GrayArea :) ,hope i see you soon , i have some ideas about some new videos for you, have you heard about Elizabeth Bathory ? mi country is full of legends many of them appearing in the books in some form or another . i'm from Transylvania the land of witches and wolf's , strigoi and pricolici .
Great video!
Once I got use to your introduction of "Sweet summer childreeennnn" I've been able to appreciate your videos more. I know it takes a lot of work to do these videos and your brain sometimes has to be going 1k miles per hour, but your efforts are truly appreciated, so thank you!
Okay, I'm lying, 😌 I'm still not use to your "SSC" (Eekk) but I DO love your work and again, I appreciate the effort that goes forth in making your videos. Keep it up! 😊
One of my favorite videos yet! Watched it twice in fact.
Great video, love the insight from the book. Jamie will be a major hero before this is over..
Great video gray bravo
Jaime only saved 500,000 people, not millions in Kingslanding.
Excellent conclusions and observations.
This is one of your best analysis. Nice job.
Jamie is misunderstood and always been my favorite preson in got
I love Jamie and he will do great things in the white book
What do you mean you can see Jaime taking the black? There's no more wall. There are no more giants. What few Wildlings are left are friends of Winterfell. When this war is over, the walkers will all be annihilated. Or Westeros will be.There will be almost nothing and nobody left to swear an oath to, or swear an oath for, amirite?
Xena Be they will have to rebuild the watch to its former glory if they survive
I love Jamie, Hes by far one of my favorite charaters. I love how much his character has changed, His plot line is the most interesting for me. Both in books, and show.
Along with Arya.
Just imagine one of the personal guards of Hitler killed him in the middle WWII, the guy probably will get a statue outside UN conference room building.
Best line in the entire book series: “by what right does the wolf judge the lion? BY WHAT RIGHT?!?” Made me cry on a public train when I was on my way home I will never forget that scene because it made a lot of people look at me weird
Do Dany next. I think she's not an entitled princess who only wants to be Queen because its her birthright. She has to rule Westeros or she'll be hunted for the rest of her life. All she wants is a home. This does not come across well in the show.
Samantha Mauney Aiken Correct Dany doesn't want the iron throne, she wants home and family.
Samantha Mauney Aiken A lot of men don't like Dany because she is a woman, She makes there balls shrink. Seeing a woman so powerful rubs them up the wrong way. Sad really LOL
Samantha Mauney Aiken Great observation. 100% agreed.
Samantha Mauney Aiken Dany is a great character, especially book Dany she is my favourite. She isn't misunderstood, people shit on her because of there jealousy. They hate the fact that she is the main protagonist on the show. The haters try to turn Dany into this evil tyrant who kills everything in sight. The exaggeration of Danys character is laughable by some online. She is without a doubt my favourite character on the show, maybe one of my favourites of all time. I must say Book Dany is far better than show Dany.
Samantha Mauney Aiken Dany is my Queen, always and forever my heart and soul.
I have grown to admire Jamie but have given me a deeper understanding of his character. I will be very sad and happy for him when he dies in the arms of the woman he loves. And even sadder if it’s Cercie. Well done, thank you.
Couldn't have said it better myself. When Jamie and Brianna talked in the bath, I fell in love with BOTH OF THEM. Jambrie forever!
He does owe Bran Stark a huge apology.
I think they will meet next season and Bran will forgive him because without him he wouldn't have become the three eyed raven.
Brian Achim Lol ya think?? Like yeah little man I'm sorry I threw you from a window to what should've been your death but ultimately ended up paralyzing you from the waste down.
Bran: Don't sweat it. I fly and see everything now.
Dime...
One of ur best videos. 💯🙌🙌
Always good content from your channel. Thank you for the video. Jamie truly shows what it is to be human. Love. Family. To live. Life is not as simple and vanilla. There are many levels of complexity. We can only do the very best we can. Some times choices are beyond our control. I can relate to Jamie’s character the best. Keep the videos coming. Cheers
Damn are you a writer if not you should be
He is one of my favorite characters.. This is a great video..
Yes, Gray, Jaime's got my favourite character arc too -- please don't send him to the Night's Watch though -- no more vows for Jaime Lannister! Awesome video!!!!!
gray this is GOLD!!! i loved the breakdown.i feel many of us feel this love /hate for him.i was just telling someone that just started watching the show. .just wait you ll love jamie😍.also have u noticed his hair looks darker or is it just me😕?
Here’s the thing with defending Jamie shoving Bran out the window as defense of his family; Jamie and Cersei are the ones who put their family at risk in the first place.
They weren’t innocents trying to save what they loved, they WERE the threat.
agreed. but,
that makes robb stark as a bastard and a thread to both his family and his people the north.
just like the other king robb s womanizing ways ending up disgusting his fiancee and ending with her eloping and the wars afterwards.
and that idiot prince targaryen that kidnapped/eloped with the fiancee of one of his lords, who is the only daughter of the northern lord a very important highborn lady not needing being engaged to anyone to make her albeit percieved kidnapping to cause a war.
seems jamie ended up with less bloodshed for his wandering organ than others with similar bedroom activity addictions.
not saying jamie is a good person. just others i have mentioned arent better.
I thank you for pointing out the hypocrisy of blaming Jaime for things that everyone else would do in his position and being totally okay with Jon bedding his Aunt but despising Twincest
I hated jamie most for tryin to kill ned stark but hes alrite now after leaving cersi
Joff deserved it Woman!!
It's weird that Cersei was brought to Court at 12, and it's quite well known that she wanted to marry Rhaegar, and that Tywin wanted this (they got rejected) too, but then it is said in the books that Twyin was maybe hoping to marry her to Viserys when he came of age, OR when Elia died. What's up?
I often wonder why Jamie didn't tell why he killed the mad king? I also wonder if Areys named Jamie kingsguard because he wanted Tyrion to be heir to Casterly rock?
Great analysis
...and Moon Boy for all I know
First I have to say I love your videos! They are by far my favorite they are cheery every time I hear "my sweet summer children..." lol For Jaime I'd say Tywin sacking King's Landing didn't help his reputation nor did people like Barristan Selmy who followed all his orders, but I want to talk about how shows have little mistakes here and there. For instance in season one Viserys talks about the dragon skulls and as you got closer to the throne they got bigger and bigger but yet later Tywin tells Joffrey that the smallest skull was right here and points to the foot of the throne and says, "and it was the size of an apple." Or how when Stannis attacked Winterfell he was met with a hellacious storm but when Jon Snow attacked there was no snow on the ground. Just odd things like Euron being south of Dragonstone then suddenly being at Casterly Rock at the same time Grey Worm arrives. Now season 7 really throws me through a loop because some parts are confusing but I can't call them errors because it could be that these scenes were meant to be left questionable and mostly I mean the Bran scenes. We see him as what appears to be warging a flock of ravens over the Night's King whose power wards them off meaning he's a "seer" as well. But the thing is is that we don't exactly know if Bran was warging the birds or having a vision at the tree. Most of his visions are of past and future events it seems. So could he be having a vision and obviously the Night King had a trap set he could have froze the water and killed them anytime but he wanted his dragon. What really gets me though is the last scene of the last episode where they for some reason show Bran by the tree again and we see birds again over Eastwatch but again is he warging them or is he having a vision? Is it possible the scene is one of the future he saw and the wall hasn't even actually fallen yet. He was able to quickly jump to the Lyanna and Rhaegar marriage seen with ease at Samwell's request so why not do that for more strategic purposes than just spying on the Night King? So confused!!!!!!
His arc is probably the best no question
Seven...
Imagine how the show would have played out had Jaime and Cersei simply asked Bran what he had seen. Had Bran responded with the innocent and honest reply that he was following a seemingly enchanted crow with three eyes, Jaime and Cersei may have just laughed in relief that he was too busy being naive to even notice their secret. They may have even humored the boy and sent him on a wild goose chase to look for the crow. Had that haopened there never would have been any fall, there never would have been any attempted assassination, or mysterious Valyrian steel dagger. Granted things still might have unfolded in a similar if not identical fashion with other events acting as the catalyst, but it's still interesting to think about what would have happened had Jamie never pushed Bran.
Someone has to be the bad guy . Most identify with him . He is well born, previously one best swords of the 7 kingdoms, he has no need of others favors, he has an ego , he is the prettiest man in the world , his love for his sister is whole where hers is just a bonus . The shmuck got the best chance for Azora Ahia plenty of reasons to hate :)
I had read the first book and was halfway through the second when I asked a coworker, who had read the entire series, what his favorite character was. He said 'Jamie'. I said 'haha. right. really, who?' He insisted he wasn't joking. I told him I would never, ever be able to like Jamie Lannister. Yeah...I ate those words. As you said he really is one of the best characters in the series and really has had a change for the better. The thing that I never got (well, I do because Martin wrote him to be like this) is why he didn't tell everyone what he told Breinne. If he told everyone that he saved the city most people would have viewed him as a hero. Certainly the people in the city would have. But he didn't so everyone hates him. That was a dumb move.
You are absolutely right about him . He is probably one of the most tragic people in this story and one I would truly love to see live some kind of redemption .
I love Jamie!
It's sad that house Lannister was brought down by 3 fools. Tywin, Joffrey and Cercei. Well Jaime contributed by pushing Bran and attacking Ned. He made choices just like many other characters, and those had consequences. He chose to kill a king and he was upset people calling you kingslayer. The times he was living in, there were ways when you could set aside your vows. Many people wanted aerys to be tried for all his crimes, but Jaime took that from them. Which only brings resentment hence the oathbreaker title. Jaime suppressed his true identity for so long that by the time he decided what he couldn't live with a lot had happened. The argument that bran would have told everybody is totally ridiculous. Ned had no proof to tell Robert that those weren't his kids. I mean there are so many variables. The only unfortunate thing is he was born in house Lannister without a mother to temper things or a woman who would have understood his true nature. The next season is what will be remembered most about Jaime, great acts of courage, sacrifice and war. Everything he's ever wanted, well minus the love of a woman who cares for him.
Loreen Okoth he will die in Briennes arms and she will love him
@@danielm4098 OR they will destroy his character arc and he'll run back to his beloved sister and die.
I admit when Jamie started out I did not care for him, Cersi is another story; but as the story developed so did Jamie. He learned to adjust and thus changed for the better. Eventually he changes enough to become an asset to the coming storyline. Cersi on the other hand, can't wait for her to receive her just dessert.
Jamie certainly wasn't thinking about his family or protecting them as you mentioned when he pushed Bran out the window. If Robert and the Lannisters found out, they probably wouldn't even believe Bran in the least. That Jamie was thinking bout himself. You can't really compare it to "what if it was Sansa and Rob"? What if it was was Joffry would you be mad?" They are such different situations and people. Joffry was an asshole. Now if it was at the beginning of the series and I knew nothing bout Joffry of course I'd be mad if someone pushed him (Joff) out the window. Later Joffry I wouldn't mind but if it was a Stark, I'd be mad because Starks are better than that. And yes, I WAS mad when Rob broke his word to Walder Frey. Look at the outcome. Rob was a fool. That's why it's a completely different thing. It can't be compared to anything else in the story. Early Jamie was just a selfish, egotistical asshole.
Also you said everyone loved King Robert and didn't dislike when he killed Raegar? I despised Robert. Fat, drunken, lazy whoremonger. Raegar would have made a great King. He wanted Dany dead! A child! Just because she was a Targaryen. I don't miss him.
Didn't think we as video viewers were of the ability to interrupt you before you finished your point.
Charles Waldon lol no but u could just be like ugh no not listening
I don’t know-I’ve seen videos where it’s painfully obvious som comments were posted before the video was watched to completion. 😱
Once proud, now humble one handed knight. Sometimes we are all once proud turned one handed knights. And their are choices we make that are difficult.
Ocho...
the blood of Valyria is a much finer cut of fabric compared to literally everyone else. and because the Old Blood is dwindling, there are few options.
Awesome Juice, Mother GreyArea... Can't agree more. Jamie is GRRM's masterpiece indeed. A foul man with foul acts, which are very much relatable.
How is a Kingslayer worse than Kinslayer? Just because of the power?
How is incest not tolerated for Lanns but 'celebrated' for Targs? Just because of the power?
Rob is an oathbreaker, so was Ned. They did wrong things too, but since they had so-called "good reasons", we let go. When Tywin, Jamie or Cersei act due to the same reasons, somehow we frown and judge. Not fair!
Reminds me of the Assassins' Brotherhood quote:
"Nothing is Truth... Everything is Permitted"
He's always going to be my fave, I loved his character so much
I have come to like Jamie Lannister also. Robert and Ned had in fact sworn oaths to the crown. However their two houses were to be joined with the marriage and Lyanna. Robert was betrothed to Lyanna. That betrothal was a contract agreed upon by House Baratheon and House Stark to join their two great houses. Rhaegar "took" Robert's betrothed, Ned's sister. They called banners and responded in the only way they had available to them to protest. There is only so much screwing over these large proud houses will take. What happened with Lyanna and Rhaegar would have caused a war just about any time. Other than that I really enjoyed your impassioned defense of Jamie Lannister. Well done!!!
This was beautiful
Great explanations I always wondered why Jaime was a kings guard
...because of what he did to Bran
hey gray area sense you made videos on Robb being the son of Brandon would you make a video on Shireen being the daughter of Axell Florent or Black Walder being the true father of both his brothers's daughters
what is this background music is so gooooooood
