North of the wall: So yeah small forest children are working for a three eyed raven whos intwined with a tree to bring a crippled child to take his place against magical ice zombies who have the power of resurrecting the dead and are here to bring a winter that never ends.

imagine if the starks got ahold of some ice dragon eggs and hatched them, raising them up like Daenarys did and using them as mounts and war beasts... that would be a frightening sight to behold. the starks could in theory become the next Targaryen dynasty, and could be just as feared and revered.

I feel like they're hard to hatch if they ever attain one and if they did successfully hatch one they would be just wild dragons. The thing with Targaryens and dragons is that it's a mystery how they were able to ride dragons, their bond isn't something you can just raise or tame. Some say that someone from beyond the Shadowlands or Asshai taught the Valyrians who are shepherds at that time. It needs magic, kind of like how Dany got her dragons hatched, she didn't just straight up burn it. She got Mirii Maaz Dur burned as well and when she was n fire she was chanting and they did said that Mirii Maaz Dur trained the art of shadowbinders in the Asshai which is far east from Westeros. Magic in the North and to the far east are very different.

The stories of grumpkins taking children and replacing them is based of of medieval Scandinavia. There were stories of trolls doing just that, probably made up to scare children. And Yes I am from Sweden, so that's how I know this. Do'nt EVER stop making videos! The AsoIaF are my faves❤

I wouldn't say Sea Dragons are confirmed, that's just what the Ironborn think. There is a good chance Nagas bones are just the petrified remains of a weirwood grove or part of a hull of a ship made from weirwood

thank you so much for still uploading videos about Westeros. I've learned so much about the book series because of your channel.
The colored cards for the creature names look really nice.
ASOIAF is the kind of show that deserves an anime, because length, production cost and compromising on details are simply not a problem. I don't really like anime, but it could easily be the length of One Piece.
I feel like this channel so underrated ... Very good info in every video thanks

If they followed the books closely they could have made 20 seasons with ease, with 2 more books coming. But I think that 2 books would not be enough , I want at least 3 more books .

You should have mentioned the Kraken in the white harbour from the first book.
Good video
The evidence of Sea dragons is in the Iron islands, however it isn’t the rib cage of some giant sea serpent Nagga. It is the leftover structure of the Grey Kings ship he made of weirwood, so Naggas bones is in the shape of the structure of a large ship or a giant rib cage and looks white because it’s petrified weirwood.
You should make a video on all the religions in Game of Thrones
Will there be a video series on The First Men kingdoms
how cool would it be if jon tamed a ice dragon
Could you please do a video about the history of the night's watch
You forgot the boar. One of the wildling (I cant remember his name) had a massive boar. You should also do a video of the creatures of essos. That could be interesting.
A giant ice spider...yeah. I'll see myself out.
Do shadow cats live all over westeros? I remember tyrion metion them while being taken to the vale by catelyn

So on Skagos, there are rumors of shaggy-furred unicorns living there. Maybe the unicorns are really Wooly Rhinos and there are others Beyond the Wall or in Essos. Do Rhinos exist in other parts of A Song of Ice and Fire?
3 things I’d be if I was in game of thrones 1 a massive dragon 3 times bigger than balerion just roaming around chilling, 2 a massive 20 foot tall giant chilling beyond the wall, 3 ice dragon deep deep beyond the wall just chilling in the frozen lands of the north without any contact with any humans or anything south of the wall
The giant elk as you called it sounds like megaloceros or better known as the Irish elk which where actually giant deer and aren't related to elks or moose at all and is a prehistoric deer species

The ribcage from a sea dragon in the iron isles is most likely the fossilized remains of a weirwood ship
Ice dragon pic he shows always kinda scares me
I like the idea the leader of the others is a magic experiment gone wrong it ties in with the doom of Valyria being like a magic Chernobyl.
As if being a man of the nights watch/wildling isn't bad enough GRRM decides to add the potential for massive spiders as well. I'd rather lose a hand for stealing than go to the nights watch
Naggas ribs are most likely petrified weirwood, just like the seastone chair.
You forgot ghouls they're mentioned in the books. It's not important I just think their cool
Wow i didn't know the thenn comes from far away north
