Scraps and Scrolls- ADWD 7

Welcome to a brand new era of the Dance! For one day only we abandon the mighty triforce to focus on not one but TWO brand new POVs, with a second chapter for a fella we've only just met. Against a backdrop of establishing what's coming to Meereen in the second act we see Tyrion's suggestions come to fruition in the Golden Company as the fate of the world is changed, we see how brutal battle can be in Astapor, even for a winning side, and then back in Westeros we get even luckier as we return to a fan favourite: Asha Greyjoy. And while she shows off vulnerability, leadership, and fury, the war in the north truly begins with a battle in the trees:

 

Today's brand spanking new chapters are:

- The Lost Lord/ Jon Connington I

- The Windblown/ Quentyn II

- The Wayward Bride/ Asha I

 

Hop aboard the Isle for a chin wag on the wary empathy we can have with Jon Connington and his sense of loss, the moral make-up of the Golden Company and what it means for Westeros now they are coming, I thank George for the viewpoint of a newbie in war, there's a big look at how RIDICULOUS the Yunkish warlords are, plus analysis of the Theon the Latecomer idea, and how the North itself is made an actual enemy fighting against Asha, as well as lots of talk about how awesome she is in general. Fighter, lover, leader: captain.
