And of course the second part of the tragedy, which is: which quadrant did you think you were in vs. which one you were really in

HOUSE OF THE DRAGON ↳ The Winter Wolves

Little did Lord Lefford suspect that he would soon face a stiffer test, for an army of fresh foes was descending on them from the north: two thousand savage northmen, flying Queen Rhaenyra's quartered banners. At their head rode the Lord of Barrowton, Roderick Dustin, a warrior so old and hoary men called him Roddy the Ruin. His host was made up of grizzled greybeards in old mail and ragged skins, every man a seasoned warrior, every man ahorse. They called themselves the Winter Wolves. "We have come to die for the dragon queen," Lord Roderick announced at the Twins, when Lady Sabitha Frey rode to greet them.

if u ever think ur being overly petty and bitter just remember there once was a portuguese prince whose dad assassinated the woman he loved & when he became king he literally had her body exhumed & placed upon the throne as his queen & forced the portuguese nobility (aka most of his father’s supporters) to pledge their alliance to her & kiss the hem of her clothes so that they would “render her when dead that homage which she had not received in her life” (x)

[m3rcykill]

WHERE DO YOU PEOPLE EVEN GET THESE STORIES FROM???! DO YOU LIKE MAKE THEM UP OR SMTH??!

[minotauri]

yeah… or i’m portuguese and know my history

[starkchesters]

okay so like, this is one of my favorite parts of Portuguese history

and it’s not because I have the same name as her or anything (even tho it’s definitely a factor - because how cool is that?!? - and I kinda used - and sometimes still use, let’s be real here - that as an excuse to call myself a queen because reASONS and shut up you would do the same)

but because that shit is like the stuff of legends and there is a whole myth surrounding their love story and the supposed place where she was killed - on the king’s orders near a fountain in the farm where she secretly lived with prince Pedro - because there’s a red stain there and it’s said that when she was stabbed she cried for the king’s men to spare her children (if memory serves me right) and her tears landed on the fountain and turned red because she was terribly devastated and in pain thinking only of her children and how she was going to leave them without a mother when in the last moments of her life…

and also, you know that prince? before he did that thing when he exhumed her just to make her ~officially~ his queen - and have everyone who ever opposed to them and their love kiss her clothes to pay her homage and the respect she did not have in life?? like that shit savage bro - he did another thing, even more savage than that

he searched the whole country for the two dudes who stabbed her (there was a third but I think he died or smth), even went to spain because one of them fled the country after the king died, and he fucking RIPPED their hearts out (one from the front and one from the back, because Inês was stabbed from both sides too) and tortured them in public, y'know, as you do

and that, my dear friends, is why the story of Pedro and Inês is considered one of the best love stories on our country (and I would say the world too because that shit better than anything Shakespeare or Nicholas Sparks ever wrote and it was fucking real)

my boy Pedro didn’t fuck around when you fucked with his lady, and you lyin’ if you say you don’t want you a freak like this - this Extra™, this ride or die, this savage - when it comes to love.

listen up, girls and boys, take note: follow their example and get yourselves a freak who would crown you queen after you were killed

TL;DR: basically Portuguese history has the best love story in the world and its the most savage thing you could imagine. go look it up - the story of Pedro and Inês. *mic drop*

People thinking this is fake is genuinely why I insist there is more history outside BBC shows about the Tudors. Yall are missing on some prime telenovela shit here on the little iberian peninsula

[mossdftba]

People thinking this is fake when OP INCLUDED A LINK TO THE WIKIPEDIA ARTICLE. 🤦 That’s what the (x) is, it’s underlined because it’s a link, it’s a polite way to link to more information without taking up too much space.

We really do piss on the poor…

[bg12sofia]

The plot is even deeper than that. King Afonso IV, Pedro’s father who order Inês’ murder, isn’t a one-dimensional villain in this story. His father, King Dinis, was a bit of a whore and had multiple illegitimate children. He favored blatantly one of those bastards, Afonso Sanches, which pissed off the future King Afonso IV. In fact, Afonso IV was infamous for his bad temper and got along terribly with his father. His mother was oftentimes forced into the role of mediator between them (by the way, said mother was Queen Santa Isabel who, according to legend, performed the Miracle of the Roses).

Afonso IV was one of the very few, if not the only Portuguese king who had no known children outside the marriage. It is said that he saw how his mother suffered with his father’s multiple affairs and bastard children, as such, he remained faithful to his wife. Which was a big deal for that time. It comes as no surprise that, when his son took a mistress, he did not take it well.

And that’s not all. Said mistress, Inês, had been fostered by, of all people, Afonso Sanches, the half-brother Afonso IV had always hated. One can’t help but think that was a factor in Afonso IV’s hatred for her.

It really was one of those cases where History is crazier than fiction.

My favorite David Burke Holmemes in honor of his passing. Rest in peace to one of the best and hottest Watsons we’ve ever had.

Fun fact: the first meme in this post was actually the first Holmeme I ever made, and the inspiration for this whole series!
