Westeros

mother. The king and everyone else seems to see him as a natural born leader. This same thing also happens to Jon Snow multiple times. He is able to rise the ranks of the Nights guard fairly quickly and eventually is able to rally the entire north of Westeros with the same energy that they had when Eddard Stark was the king of the…

leader told him to do as they say, which resulted in him being killed by Jon. In Riverrun, Catelyn has released her son, King Robb’s, hostage in hopes to get her daughters back from Cersei and Joffrey. These events, and many more are causing Chaos in Westeros. In this journal, I will be predicting, questioning, and connecting. First of all, I will be predicting the fate of Sansa Stark. I predict that she will not marry Tyrion, like Lord Tywin wants wants her to do. One reason for that…

Jon’s super dead, Melisandre’s super old, the High Sparrow’s super pious, and Arya’s super blind. The blame for most of these sad states can be placed on some powerful folks putting their personal interest above their public duties. Or what we in the ethics world sometimes like to call Conflicts of Interest. SPOILER ALERT: there’re a lot of conflicts in Season 6 premiere! We got a little bit of this (MISUSE OF POSITION/CROWN RESOURCES) and a little bit of that (POST-EMPLOYMENT ISSUES), plus a…

of which one. The prettiest had been all but hen-picked already, the wisest plain of face, and the rest—well, the rest were no less beloved to Liliyana, in any case. Each and every one of the Frey girls had their charms, despite what the rest of Westeros was so keen to say about them.…

One evening Jack Sturlson was walking home from colleague as usual. After three years of college he finally did it, he enrolled to his second year. What? Being held back a few years is normal, right? Such worrying thoughts and others filled his mind on his way back. Back at home he tossed his jacket on a chair right next to his new Dive VR headset, which he had to work for a few months to be able to afford it. Jack fell lazily on his bed. He was thinking about the thing his friends said…

It almost seems as if human nature itself promotes violence among individuals; however, it is not the only pushing force that causes a person to lift a knife against their fellow man, and certainly not the most powerful. Grief, anger, and a corrupted mind all serve to instigate violent acts in both literature as well as the real world. Although a person can pick up a fictitious book about murder and laugh it off as nothing more than a story, it is important to realize that everything that was…

In the last years there have been several TV series that have succeeded in the media and that have produced a fan phenomenon and one of them is Game of Thrones. Since its launching in 2011, this drama has caught the attention of the public and has become part of the history of television, breaking records in audience, illegal downloads and sells all over the world. The question here is why this simple and vane fiction has attracted such an amount of audience that are willing to see what is going…

each other, sometime. The whole series orbits around intensified politics, where a set of houses, take as modern day nations, are trying to take over a common throne, assume being the ultimate super-power. The series presents three main vistas – Westeros, The Wall and the Free Cities. Around 300 years ago the impression of single kingdom with a set of houses was started by the first common king a Targareyn. The Targareyns were once a mighty force and they rode the dragons. Thus, they uses…

Which 1980s New Romantic pop group released a song entitled, "Fade to Grey"? Having started out hosting club nights at Billy's nightclub in Soho, founding members Steve Strange and Rusty Egan wanted to tap into the growing New Wave culture of syntho-pop, forming Visage in the late 1970s. Recruiting amongst others, Midge Ure and Billy Curry - whom also performed with Ultravox - the band's first single was a cover of Zager and Evans "In the Year 2525".

zIf you’re like me, you grew up with a mother who always told you to go outside or read a book instead of watching television which I was told rotted your brain. But maybe, our mothers were wrong. Maybe television IS good for you. Man, this video is discriminatory to orphans. Sorry Bats. Here in Canada, we spend on average 4 and a half hours reading books every week, which sounds pretty good, but not when compared to the 15 hours or more we spend a week watching televison. Both those numbers…
