Maester: When Torrhen Stark, the last King in the North, saw Aegon the Conqueror and his three dragons, he chose to bend the knee and preserve his people. Random Heir: Why: Maester: Because the First Men had the one thing the Andals lacked; Common Sense.

Anyway I saw a video with Dex and Peter where Dex confirmed there was a mule in Season 2 and I shouted "MAESTER" and clapped my hands with glee.

Because even vague references to Maester Aemon are important to me.

Also yay on Sweetfoot coming back.

Qyburn, Lord Qyburn, Master of Whisperers to Queen Regent Cersei, The Bloody Maester.

"Terrible times breed terrible things, My Lord."

Finished up everyone's favourite Grandpa Frankenstein. Qyburn is a delightfully spooky character in the books, collaborating with anyone who will find use for his talents and clearly engaging in some pretty vicious blood magic and necromancy somewhere deep in the bowels of the Red Keep. While I don't know exactly where his story will go, I have a feeling that Cersei is going to regret enabling him just as much as she did empowering the Sparrows. I like the stooped, humble expression on the miniature's face here, coupled with his kindly expression and offset by the bloody knife in his hands, and the hooked chains hanging off of his belt.

Let’s say Walter Frey feels he can’t achieve upward success normally, but has a ton of sons - so he packs them up young and sends them wave after wave to the citadel to stack up at least the mid levels with Freys, if not higher - achieve a family monopoly of sorts within this soft power base. Is there anything the citadel could do to prevent this? Can they deny, or other volunteer groups, candidates on political neautrality grounds if like 10 freys are being sent in ?

If the Citadel feels like the Freys are trying to do something to compromise their neutrality, they could easily find ways to stop them. Since Archmaesters are responsible for graduating their acolyte, they could not grant them links on their chains, forcing them to remain as novices or acolyte. Alternatively, as the Seneschal governs the Citadel, he may expel the boys for any reason he sees fit.

Thanks for the question, Anon.
