No known people live further west than House Farwynd of Lonely Light, and few houses if any are considered as strange. Even other Ironborn regard them as mad and tell stories that sound like a Northern house. There’s talk of Farwynd skinchangers, connecting them to killer whales, walruses, sea lions and more… not to mention rumors of Farwynds breeding with seals to make selkies. They are the Sunset Skinchanger Raiders of Westeros, and they even have a second branch on Great Wyk, giving us much to dive into.HoW Audience Survey - bit.ly/howsurveyBonus Eps & More - patreon.com/historyofwesterosShirts & Stickers - historyofwesteros.threadless.comwww.historyofwesteros.comIntro/Maps - klaradox.deFacebook Group - bit.ly/howfbDiscord - bit.ly/howdiscordNina - goodqueenaly.tumblr.com/

Game of Thrones at the End of Ancient Greece
Athens, Sparta, Thebes, and their neighbors fought a seemingly endless series of civil wars worthy of Westeros. But just like the War of Five Kings, Greece should have been more concerned with uniting against a greater threat massing to the North - one capable of conquering or enslaving them all. This is a grand story of deeds as infamous as the Red Wedding, as heroically selfless as Dunk or Brienne, and as disturbing as the worst Targaryen incest or Bolton torture.HoW Audience Survey - bit.ly/howsurveyBonus Eps & More - patreon.com/historyofwesterosShirts & Stickers - historyofwesteros.threadless.comwww.historyofwesteros.comIntro/Maps - klaradox.deFacebook Group - bit.ly/howfbDiscord - bit.ly/howdiscordNina - goodqueenaly.tumblr.com/

The Prophecies of Patchface
Patchface drowned on his way to Westeros but somehow rose again on the beach near Storm’s End. The tragic and creepy fool sings of shadows, things under the sea, and undoubtedly at times, of the future. Here’s our attempt to interpret the songs of a man that even Melisandre fears.HoW Audience Survey - bit.ly/howsurveyBonus Eps & More - patreon.com/historyofwesterosShirts & Stickers - historyofwesteros.threadless.comwww.historyofwesteros.comIntro/Maps - klaradox.deFacebook Group - bit.ly/howfbDiscord - bit.ly/howdiscordNina - goodqueenaly.tumblr.com/
