Smiling, he seized his dragon, flew it across the board. "I hope Your Grace will pardon me. Your king is trapped. Death in four."

The prince stared at the playing board. "My dragon—"

"—is too far away to save you. You should have moved her to the center of the battle."

"But you said—"

"I lied. Trust no one. And keep your dragon close."

Thinking in how Robb's mercy towards Osha (when he could ""feed her to the wolves"") was crucial to Rickon and Bran's survival and escape. AND HE NEVER GETS TO KNOW IT AND HE DIES FEELING LIKE A FAILURE TO HIS BROTHERS AND BELIEVING THEY ARE DEAD DETROYS ME AAAAAAAH

Aquí hay 2 cosas interesantes para señalar: por un lado, el invento del caballo blanco y, por otro-como veremos a continuación-ratificar la acción y las palabras del soldado mulato o zambo Juan Bautista Cabral, ya que es el mismo San Martín, absoluto enemigo de las exageraciones y las mentiras, quien se preocupa que recordemos el episodio, al protagonista y sus últimas palabras: En una nota del 27 de febrero, San Martín le pidío al Triunvirato (V.E) que atendiera especialmente la situación de las viudas, y las familias de los caidos y las familias de los caidos, un deber que entonces, como ocurriría, también después, los funcionarios públicos no respetaban(...): "Como sé la satisfacción que tendrá V.E en recompensar a las familias de los individuos del regimiento, muertos en la acción de San Lorenzo, o de sus reclutas, tengo el honor de incluil a V.E la adjunta relación de su número, país de nacimiento, y estado. No puedo prescindir de recomendar partircularmente a V.E, la viuda del capitán Justo Bermúdez, que ha quedado desamparada con una criatura de pecho, como también a la familia del granadero Juan Bautista Cabral, natural de corrientes, que atravesado por dos heridas, no se le oyeron otros ayes que los de ""Viva la patria, ¡muero contento por haber batido a los enemigos!"" y efectivamente a las pocas horas falleció, repitiendo las mismas palabras.

Juan Bautista Cabral

(Después de la victoria en el combate de San Lorenzo)

Los invasores españoles no salían de su asombro y todavía atragantados por la derrota publicaban este parte en la Gaceta de Montevideo: Por derecha e izquierda del monasterio dos gruesos trozos de caballería formados en columna y bien uniformados, que a todo galope y sable en mano cargaban en manodespreciando los fuegos de dos cañoncitos, que principiaron a hacer estragos en los enemigos desde el momento que los divisó nuestra gente. Sin embargo de la primera pérdida de los enemigos, desentendiéndose de la que les causaba nuestra artillería, cubrieron sus claros con la mayor rapidez, atacando a nuestra gente con tal denuedo que no dieron lugar a formar el cuadro. Ordenó Zabala a su gente ganar la barranca, posición mucho más ventajosa sie el enemigo trataba de atacarla de nuevo. Apenas tomó esta acertada providencia, cuando vio al enemigo cargar por segunda vez con mayor violencia y esfuerzo que la primera. Nuestra gente formó aunque imperfectamente un cuadro por no haber dado lugar a hacer la evolución la velocidad con la que cargó el enemigo.

El violento combate de apenas 15 minutos de duración dejó, entre los patriotas, 16 muertos y 27 heridos. Entre las bajas fatales, se encontraban Juan Bautista Cabral, muerto en el combate, y Justo Germán Bermúdez(...). Ellos junto Juan Bautista Baigorria, pudieron salvar la vida de su jefe (San Martín), cuando en medio del combate su caballo bayo (no blanco, dismintiendo el invento del caballo blanco) cayó herido y le aprisionó la pierna.

 "The honor of the north is in my hands now."

"She found Robb beneath the green canopy of leaves, surrounded by tall redwoods and great old elms, kneeling before the heart tree, a slender weirwood with a face more sad than fierce."

Mavelous Robb Stark inspired by Joan of Arc commision done by the great mihaellustrates on twt and instagram

light explanation of the comm below:

I always thought of robb as a kind of religious character not only in subtext and symbolism but also literally a believer of the Old Gods that enter into a kind of crisis after "Bran and Rickon's" deaths. I put my two fav quotes relted to this theme but there's more.

I used Joan of arc here to show Robb during his late-agot/acok era:

I wanted to explore this religious kinda like figure of him in this art but also without lost the component of martyrdom and more important: His constant fear and (especially in middle of asos) his own sense of fatalism. (that's why the expression is kinda of changed to highlight the fear and insecurity)

The flag that robb is holding here is not only to represent the old gods BUT to represent the north, robb is not only fighting in his family's name but his whole region. AND to give a sublte hint to Lyanna as the knight of the laughing tree. (the design is kinda inspired/referenced to an art of the shield after all)

And about robb's design well, i used Trystin Valentino (with some changes) as faceclaim/reference and the clothes are kinda inspired by the inuit and some outfits from avatar's water tribe character + more a combination of the stark and tully's colors but still using some wolf symbolism.

george was actually insane to write catelyn envying the silent sisters' ability to understand the dead before becoming a walking corpse referred to as the silent sister and the embodiment of revenge and the stranger themselves like he was crazy for that

Ned loved him for that, for remembering her still after all these years. He called for a lantern. No other words were needed. The queen had begun to protest. They had been riding since dawn, everyone was tired and cold, surely they should refresh themselves first. The dead would wait. She had said no more than that; Robert had looked at her, and her twin brother Jaime had taken her quietly by the arm, and she had said no more.
