Climb is all

The realm?
Do you know what the realm is?
It's the thousand blades of Aegon's enemies.
A story we agree to tell each other over and over
till we forget that it's a lie.

But what do we have left once we abandon the lie?
Chaos.
A gaping pit waiting to swallow us all. Chaos isn't a pit.

Chaos is a ladder.
Many who try to climb it fail
and never get to try again.
The fall breaks them.
And some are given a chance to climb ,
But they refuse.
They cling to the realm
or the gods
or love.
Illusions.
Only the ladder is real.
The climb is all there is.

Kingdom?
Do you know what a kingdom is?
He is a thousand swords of Aegon's enemies.
A story we agreed to tell each other over and over
until we forgot the nature of the lie.

After the lies are exposed, what are we left with?
confusion.
A bloody abyss awaits to devour everything.

Chaos is not an abyss.
Chaos is the ladder.
A lot of people try to climb up but fail
and never get a chance to try again.
They fell and died.
Someone had the opportunity to climb,
but they turned it down.
They guarded the kingdom,
guarded the gods ,
guarded love.
All fantasy.
Only stairs really exist.
Climbing is what life is all about.

    I really don't understand that the episode of blood marriage can make so many people cry. For a man like Rob, he has no royal temperament at all for his personal love and love. Look at the dragon girl again. Along the way, the slaves were liberated and the town was recovered. This is the gap between the wolf family and the dragon family.

    After watching "The Hobbit", I feel that the production cost of "A Song of Ice and Fire" is so pitiful. $3 million per minute PK $100,000 per minute. hey... brain fills in Peter Jackson's A Song of Ice and Fire...

Valar Dohaeris quotes

  • Cersei Lannister: You're a clever man. But you're not half as clever as you think you are.

    Tyrion Lannister: Still makes me more clever than you.

  • [Bronn and Pod arrive at Tyrion's door, where two Kingsguard knights are blocking their entrance]

    Bronn: Ah, look at these two shining warriors: Ser Teryn Mant, and, uh... Ser Whosit of Whocares.

    Meryn Trant: Ser Meryn Trant.

    Bronn: [grandly] Ser Bronn of the Blackwater.

    Meryn Trant: You're no knight.

    Bronn: Pod?

    Podrick Payne: Ser Bronn of the Blackwater was anointed by the king himself.

    Meryn Trant: You're an up-jumped cutthroat. Nothing more.

    Bronn: That's exactly who I am. And you're a grub in fancy armor who's better at beating little girls than fighting men. Now, I have an appointment with Lord Tyrion.

    [Bronn starts forward, but the knights block his way]

    Meryn Trant: You put your hand on that door, you lose the hand.

    [everyone reaches for their weapons, but Cersei walks out and the knights follow her. Tyrion looks out the door; Bronn turns so Tyrion can see his half-drawn knife, then sheathes it again]
