it really goes to show just how important it was that Robb was crowned as King in the North since it brought both the Brackens and Blackwoods on the same side for the first time since (at least) Aegon’s Conquest
@@Lumistrocity in that case, but in most other wars they were on opposing sides. The blackwoods backed rhaenyra and the brackens backed aegon. Then in the Blackfyre Rebellion(s) they were again on opposing sides. Robert’s Rebellion may be more so just them following their liege lord instead of actively working together
@@TrajGreekFire i’m mostly talking about times of war or times when there was tension around the realm, barring The Mad King’s reign they usually used any sort of excuse to try and get at other’s throats. Aegon IV’s reign comes to mind and during the Dance
you support the blackwoods because the are mostly on the right side i support the blackwoods because i think their sigil is cooler, we are not the same
We have a similar situation in Chicago with O Block and STL...two gangs that came from one original gang, fractured into two factions, and generations have fought and died for their respective sides. The two gangs also are literally within miles of each other, separated by a dividing line in the form of a street. It always interested me how some of the lore of this universe parallels real life.
no. In fact blood magic is not associated with Westeros at all in the current time. Bran sees a vision of an old woman with a bronze axe (weapons of the First Men) seemingly ready to kill someone near the godswood tree, but he doesn't know if it is a sacrifice or execution.
Even on this channel, I find you, Brother Bittersteel, saying the Brackens are better. Swear fealty to House Blackwood and I will allow you to live out your days at the wall.
@gregrobertson5576 NEVER!!!!! HOUSE BRACKEN FOREVER!!!!!! It's good to see you as always but even better on a different channel. I hope you are doing Fantastic.
Lets be real they should have been called the Bittersteel Rebellions
Soooooo fuck the Brakens?
Finally a detailed video on this feud, tysm!

I'm fairly certain they both stayed loyal to lord tully during Robert's rebellion
They were on peace terms during Jeaherys reign for like 50 years

“The right side”

I genuinely thought this is going to be 9 min video of Ser Simon Strong saying "sin begets sin begets sin..." played in a loop.
Bracken > Blackwood
Blasphemy. Blackwood supremacy 🙌🏻
Them’s fightin words.
The ha fields and McCoys
The details say the background for this topic comes from “wiki” but which one of George R.R. Martin’s books cover this??
Probably a world of ice and fire. But there’s a Jaime chapter in dance of dragons where they talk about their feuding history quite a bit.
Do House Blackwood practice sacrificial blood magic to the old gods?
no. In fact blood magic is not associated with Westeros at all in the current time. Bran sees a vision of an old woman with a bronze axe (weapons of the First Men) seemingly ready to kill someone near the godswood tree, but he doesn't know if it is a sacrifice or execution.
