The family that always pays its debts were not the big inbreeders; it was the dragons that liked to keep it in the family.Report
That hasn’t quite been revealed to me quite yet. I just remember Cercei’s speech about Joffrey’s provenance.Report
The Targaryen family tree is in the appendix to AGoT. As is the fact that Tywin Lannister married his first cousin.Report
Wait, what?
Huh. Maybe I should have looked at that.Report
Dude, it’s like LOTR. The appendixes are a huge part of the world-building.Report
Dany talking/thinking about marrying her brother isn’t just an isolated incident.Report
There was an aside in ADWD that made people think new things about a certain member of the Lannister family. I have a different take on that theory that leads me to a related but very different conclusion. That’s my attempt at not spoiling, but it may also make my statement impenetrable to everyone.Report
You’ve got a decent helping of Danes in there too… and William of Orange if memory serves…
Just because Americans only remember our English history…Report
