Asoiaf Characters X Greek Mythology: Foils, Parallels, Deconstructions And Archetypes

asoiaf characters x greek mythology: foils, parallels, deconstructions and archetypes

please, read take these as associations solely to the specific characters, they do not reflect relations between them - eg, Jon is ofc not Jaime’s father…

dorne & house martell week: day 5 - favorite quote | ellaria sand’s rebuke of revenge

Oberyn wanted vengeance for Elia. Now the three of you want vengeance for him. I have four daughters, I remind you. Your sisters. My Elia is fourteen, almost a woman. Obella is twelve, on the brink of maidenhood. They worship you, as Dorea and Loreza worship them. If you should die, must El and Obella seek vengeance for you, then Dorea and Loree for them? Is that how it goes, round and round forever? I ask again, where does it end? I saw your father die. Here is his killer. Can I take a skull to bed with me, to give me comfort in the night? Will it make me laugh, write me songs, care for me when I am old and sick? 

y’all this pic is too powerful.
