  • There are countless houses in Westeros, however the most powerful and influential among them are called great houses, despite their vast influence and power over the centuries, just like the smaller houses, they are often perished in history and are no longer active and today, I talked about them

    Many of these Houses were never destroyed. The Gardeners still exist through their cadet houses, but it's true that they were "destroyed" in the sense that none of them are considered Great Houses or Lords Paramount. House Hightower still endure as well in their ancestral position, even after the Dance. The Mudds still exist, but they've been divested of their lands. The Baratheons still exist. The Velaryons still exist. Several Houses that were destroyed are not mentioned; like the Reynes (suspected to be still extant technically, through House Vikary, possibly a bastard house), House Qoherys is mentioned but not expanded on, but they are completely extinct and there are probably a lot more of them I can't think of right now, but I suppose those are not technically "Great" Houses. A better title might be Great Houses that were destroyed *or* diminished.

      They have no legitimate velaryons left. It’s just one bastard dude. The blood carried on but not the legacy. It’s basically the same deal as the blackfyres. All the male heirs got wiped out so the family name is dead, but the blood likely continues matriarchally and through bastards.

    You did a really good job with this... I've read all this stuff... but some of the information you present took me by surprise and I had to go looking for your sources. So much of this stuff just flies by unnoticed as we read through the different chapters - but you really sifted through, collected, categorized and presented this information in a way that makes it a little bit easier to remember. I was a little dismayed that you didn't cover the North... but I guess there aren't any extinct great houses up there just yet. This is only the 2nd of your videos I've seen... but I've subscribed so I won't miss out on your future works. Thanks for putting this out there.

  • @CoryCesare
    @CoryCesare หลายเดือนก่อน

    The Hightower's "Ancestors" were the Great Empire of the Dawn. They were dragon riders, as evidenced by the Five Forts in Essos and the Battle Isle below the Hightower being made of fused black stone (which can only be created using dragonfire). I believe they were cutting down weirwoods and practicing blood magic to expand their empire. Which is why the First Men and the Children banded together, why they created the white walkers, and why they arranged "the pact", it was to rid Westeros of dragons and the Great Empire.

    I like your voice and watching this as a video makes it more approachable then reading on the subjects in question. But could it be, that you took some passages word for word from the wiki?
    This is from the wiki: "The Casterlys disappeared from history during the Age of Heroes, having been replaced by House Lannister. Legends claim that the Andal adventurer Lann the Clever tricked Casterly Rock from the Casterlys, although his methods vary in different stories"
    And it matches quite nicely with your words around 24:57

    People for get the blackwood where one of the great houses befor the stark , the Starks won the war in the north and drove them away and they left to the river lands.
    And people forget in the books they talk about the old kingdoms behind the wall who were bigger then the houses that we know now in got, so wat happened to them nobody knows, one of the series that was canceled would go about it, i think it was the one with naomi watts. it would have the fall of those kingdoms, the long night and the building of the wall.

    Like i know its pretty sick.....but you think the targarion kings at times would have breed their daughters like cattle making sure they ended up connected to evey house through marriage and you would think the more targarions the more dragons....seems like there was only enough dragons for how many targarions there was at the time, if it was me i would have tried to breed a army of 100 targarions riding 100 dragons and placing them spread out all over the realm so that no house needed a standing army and everything was done through courts sort of thing. Yes there would be infighting and stuff between the targarion dragon riders but come on its not like it didn't happen between the other families anyway.....the other thing i don't get is that they had scorpions at the time you think every house would have them since the conquest of agon since they would work against dragons and men . In the wars we don't see catapults or anything you think at the sege or river run they would be trying to bring down the walls
