    The irony is both the Blackwood and Bracken Houses joined with Robb Stark and the North during The War of the Five Kings and both continued to fight against the Lannisters even after the Red Wedding LMAO The Lannisters are so despicable that both of these houses who have had so many grudges towards eachother put aside their differences to avenge the Starks.

It would be cool to see more of the details and lands of the minor houses that inhabit the kingdoms, and maybe some lore/history behind them. I just watched the Crownlands video again and its like 70% history of Kings Landing and 30% on the actual crownlands, and it doesn't even mention House Hayford :(. I know some of these houses aren't the most fascinating, but most at least have lore bits, and it'd be cool to see an updated actual detailed map of the lands. Just a request!

    It was probably just to add some air of mystery in the show. Shows don't always have to translate page to film 100% accurately. Sometimes little detail changes can make the most powerful affect on the show, in a positive manner. The Last Of Us is the most recent example of changes from the source material to film being for the betterment of the project. As long as the showrunners do the source material justice, then I'm all for it. A simple name change could also add much more spontaneity to the show. Since we know what will happen in the books, this can be fun to watch in live action, as we don't know it will happen exactly as it was written. Plus it also factors into how the books were written. With Fire and Blood being comprised of third party information, there is room for interpretation and play on some accords.

    I think HotD changed the original names in order to use Amos and Samwell later in the timeline during the Dance of the Dragons. That small change creates a lineage of conflict between Rival Houses on screen.

    Only if we are meant to believe Willem Blackwood is the younger brother to Samwell or not part of the main branch (if older brother he would have to be just slightly older in order for the timeline to work). Since it’s Samwells son Benjicot (a lad of 14 by the end of the dance) who is mostly in the story and since it’s only been 17 years since the duel it doesn’t really make sense that 2 generations have been born. I mean let’s say Willem was 13 being generous he has his son around a year or two later that would make his son 15 and just now having a son of his own so Benjicot would be 1-2 when he’s suppose to be 12 at the start of the dance. I don’t mind if it’s just a name change though as long as the story is good. The whole point of the book as a unreliable narrator is you having to piece together the story from vague information on important events so it makes sense that some names and even events would be different.

    ​@@KingOfWinter Names being different is a huge thing in historical books and quite easy to check as proud houses keep lists of their Lords. The show is just not book canon. Martin has already said that there is book canon and show canon. The show is canon to the other show but not canon for the books. But clickbait KZreadrs only keep the "show is canon" part.

    @WERTYUIO821. Oh yeah I don’t hold this as boom canon but the showrunner is a real fan and is trying to stay as close to the books as possible so I assume he has a plan. Though I did assume that for D&D too and we all know how that went lol. Yeah proud houses have records but how can we really trust those records especially when really proud houses try tracing their lineage back to literally gods. Maybe you can trust 3-4 generations back but anything further than that and you’re working with the honor system and that isn’t something I would trust 100% but still I see your point and concede lol

    @@KingOfWinter Unfortunately the showrunner is not close to the books. Spoiler alert. Laena's death in the books was very very sad. She lost her son and because of grief she got sick. Daemon brought her the Maester of Dragonstone and the Maester of Driftmark but they couldn't help her. The way they changed it to the show was a betrayal to her character. It was one of the saddest scenes they could have instead they changed just to make some anger against Daemon? Make Laena forgettable? Both? I don't know. I really hope they don't change Silverwing's scene with Vermithor as well. If they do that one well, they can legitimately get the saddest scene in all of TV series.

    @WERTYUIO821. Oh I’m obsessed with all things ASOIAF. So you don’t have to spoiler warn me though I do thank you for looking out. Yeah he has changed a lot but I have heard he’s a real fan of the books nonetheless. You take chances and sometime you hit gold and sometimes it’s crap. Like I personally like the House Valyrion change and Aemond not meaning to kill his nephew change but I agree laena’s death was horrible. But they absolutely did it to show she had “agency” in her death since earlier it showed king Viserys saying to save the child which “killed” his wife and they were showing how a “strong” woman would not go out like that. Though I would argue a truly strong woman wouldn’t want her child to die so she could live but that’s just politics and Hollywood loves putting it’s politics in stories where they should just stay out of it and do it like the fans want. Oh I hope they don’t change that either and I hope they bring Daeron into the show. I would love a alternate history where Jace is king and Daeron is hand and the families worked together instead of fought but that’s just the summer child in me lol

    In an age where honor and face is everything, that poor kid (heir to oldstones) kinda had to do something when the heir to fairmarket literally named him craven. Remember when Fingolfin rode up to Angband and challenged Morgoth to a 1v1 fight and then named him Craven in front of all of his lieutenants thus forcing him to accept?

My father says there will never be an end to it." - Hoster Blackwood (Jaime's hostage) "There could be." - Jaime Lannister "How, my lord? The old wounds never heal, my father says." - Hoster Blackwood "My father had a saying too. Never wound a foe when you can kill him. Dead men can't claim vengeance." - Jaime Lannister "Their sons do." - Hoster Blackwood "Not if you kill their sons as well. Ask the Casterlys about that if you doubt me. Ask Lord and Lady Tarbeck, or the Reynes of Castamere. Ask the Prince of Dragonstone." - Jaime Lannister "Is that why you killed all the Starks?" - Hoster Blackwood "Not all, Lord Eddard's daughters live. One has just been wed. The other...." (Brienne, where are you? Have you found her?) "... if the gods are good, she'll forget she was a Stark. She'll wed some burly blacksmith or fat faced innkeep, fill his house with children, and never need to fear that some knight might come along to smash their heads against a wall." - Jaime Lannister "The gods are good." -Hoster Blackwood (You go on believing that.) - Jaime Lannister's thought
