Robert Frost and Ernst Cassirer are racing against time to resolve The Problem of Vagueness until morning.

Scene: A dimly lit cell in a maximum-security prison. Two inmates, Robert Frost and Ernst Cassirer, sit on cots opposite each other. A guard slams the door shut and locks it. Robert: (rubbing his hands together) So, Ernst, what’s the problem we have to solve? Ernst: (straightening his glasses) The Problem of Vagueness. It’s a logical paradox that has been plaguing philosophers for…

Before I get started, it is my opinion that these prophecy arcs within HotD are more book-based, especially Aegon's prophecy, which is confirmed to come from GRRM.

With that being said, I might be trippin, but after the latest episode, I think Daemon might be the precursor to Bloodraven. We never found out what happened to Daemon's body or if he even died during the fight with Aemond above the Gods-Eye. What if he somehow made it to the shores of Harrenhal or even the Isle of Faces and got hooked up to the Wirewood net like his great-grandson and was guiding events that were to come before Bloodraven ultimately took over?

I mean, who came before Bloodraven? There must've been someone, and what if that someone was his own great-grandfather, and both of these “rouge Taragyens“ ended up in higher-minded places, guiding events that are to come, which will ultimately lead up to Daenerys Targaryen and her dragons. 

And before you say that this is impossible since Daemon doesn't have any First Men's ancestry, that's not entirely true. His great-grandmother's (Alyssa Velaryon) mother was a Massey, Alarra Massey. House Massey is an anicent house that can trace their ancestry back to the age of heroes, and after Aenys I and Alyssa's marriage, the next couple generations of Taragyens went back straight to sibling incest, leading up to Viserys and Daemon.

So yeah, Daemon does have a fair amount of first men blood in him, just like Daenerys has with her Blackwood ancestry. Her great-grandmother was non other than Betha Blackwood, the wife of Aegon V, and of course Bloodraven is also part Blackwood, and then, of course, there is Jon with his Stark blood. The blood of the first men does flow strong in our main Targs.

(Btw, this theory is partly based on GrayArea, who made a similar prediction about Daemon all the way back in 2021 before HotD came out, focusing on the main source material.)

I saw a lot of discussion last night on whether or not ASOIAF ends with the death of Daenerys. And I can see that happening, maybe not the way it does in the show because that was a very rushed and poorly written scenario, but if it happens it happens and I won’t be mad about it.

HOWEVER

I can also see the evidence building up to see the series ending with Daenerys on the throne.

I think it was GrayArea on YT who said something once about how GRRM holds to the adage from Mark Twain that says “History doesn’t repeat itself, but it does rhyme.” And everything we see throughout the Targaryen dynasty, male heirs are always being put before female heirs. Everything we see that happens in the Dance.

Even in the show quote from Princess Rhaenys: “Men would rather put the realm to the torch than to see a woman ascend the Iron Throne.” (Which carries more weight and impact if this ultimately ends with a Targaryen Queen ruling.)

And while we do know that she isn’t the only Targaryen left in the world, Daenerys is the Prince that was Promised, Daenerys is their legacy.

[gender-and-sexuality-terms]

Sexuality and sexual identity

Sexuality is defined as who someone is attracted to romantically. Sexualities can be defined as who someone is attracted to in relation to their gender, how many people they are attracted to, and their type of attraction. It should also be noted that sexualities/sexual identities can stack on top of each other, I.E. Someone can be bisexual and aromantic, or straight but polyamorous

Most sexual identities pertain to one of two things: level of attraction and who someone is attracted to.

Level of attraction pertains to how someone feels towards other people, both romantically and sexually. Asexuals feel little to no sexual attraction to one person, while Allosexuals feel sexual attraction towards others. In the middle of these two we have sexualities like graysexualy (experiences sexual attraction to a minor degree) or demisexualy (people who only feel sexual attraction to those with an emotional bond). It should also be noted that sexualities like aromanticism (having little to not romantic attraction) also exist

Who someone is attracted to, on the other hand, is exactly that: who a person is sexually or romantically attracted towards in relation to their gender. Lesbians/Gays/Homosexuals are people that are attracted to the same gender, while heterosexuals are people that are attracted to the opposite natal sex. Bisexuals are attracted to two genders (most commonly men and women, though it is also possible for bisexuals to be attracted to men/women and non binary people). Pansexuals are attracted to all genders, and the aforementioned asexuals are sexually attracted to no one.

2. The Dragon Demands, with his amazing insight.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sF1BWtxE4M&ab_channel=TheDragonDemands

History and background on Valyria from GrayArea at YouTube.

The major portion of this vid is about the period prior to the famous dream by Daenys Targaryen about the Doom.

That voice isn't you. That voice is a part of you. Detach from its utterances and see it as what it is, illusionary and destructive. It does not control you, it does not define you. Take back your power and make it work for you. Force it is listen and quiet. Meditate when it screams, make it focus on nothing but the sensation in your feet or fingers. Do not let it wonder. Force it in submission every time it speaks. Watch it as it squirms as you take the power from it. Watch where it takes you but do not attach, this is not you. You are the one watching. It will try in every moment to use the energy as it has for so long and it will succeed sometimes but with practice it becomes weakened, in those moments of silence you will not be wanting for anything. Peace of mind is peace of life. A long path yes, but those moments become the refuge from the storm; with one day, them becoming the foundation of our temple. You are stronger and more beautiful than that voice will ever tell you, stop listening and be yourself as you are, nothing else is reality.
