E con questo episodio saremo già a metà del racconto di questa prima stagione. Il titolo è The Squire.
Episodio scritto da Hiram Martínez, Annie Julia Wyman e Ira Parker e che vede alla regia Sarah Adina Smith.
Buona visione.

"Lo scempio ha due teste"
A mio parere è l'episodio più bello della stagione, nonostante sia anche quello che si discosta maggiormente dalla novella.
The time between the notes relates the colour to scenes,
A constant vogue of triumphs dislocate man, so it seems,
And space between the focus shape ascend knowledge of love
As song and chance develop time lost social temperance rules above
Then according to the man who showed his outstretched arm to space,
He turned around and pointed revealing all the human race,
I shook my head and smiled a whisper knowing all about the place

What is honor compared to a woman's love? What is duty against the feel of a newborn son in your arms… or the memory of a brother's smile? Wind and words. Wind and words. We are only human, and the gods have fashioned us for love. That is our great glory, and our great tragedy.
George R. R. Martin (A Game of Thrones)
The measure of a life is a measure of love and respect,
So hard to earn, so easily burned
In the fullness of time,
A garden to nurture and protect
It's a measure of a life
The treasure of a life is a measure of love and respect,
The way you live, the gifts that you give
In the fullness of time,
It's the only return that you expect
Neil Peart (The Garden)
Ernest Hemingway once wrote, ‘The world is a fine place, and worth fighting for.’ I agree with the second part.

Tutta la parte iniziale con Egg che si allena mi è piaciuta tantissimo. Divertente, e commovente al tempo stesso.
Sulla parte finale ho qualche dubbio, per la prima volta ho sentito l'impatto della durata limitata dell'episodio.
visto ieri sera, a mio parere molto bello, non ricordo bene la novella ma la parte finale mi sembra molto fedele
Egg: È strano che io abbia peli neri sulle palle?
Dunk: È strano che tu me lo dica
Io per tutto il resto della puntata: In effetti è strano che Egg abbia peli neri. Sono i suoi geni dorniani? È tipo la cosa di Valarr, ma al contrario? Quindi Valarr ha i peli del pube bianchi? Dimentichiamo Valarr: Jon Snow come ce li ha i peli del pube?
"Gli dei esistono" ripetè a se stessa. "E anche i veri cavalieri. Tutto questo non può essere una menzogna".
Comitato Pro Brandon Stark; Comitato S.P.A. Salvate il piccolo Aemon (in difesa del figlio di Mance, del figlio di Gilly e di tutti gli altri bimbi di ASOIAF); Comitato A.T.P.A. (Aemon Targaryen pro-pro-prozio dell'anno); Comitato E.S.S.S. (Eddard Stark Santo Subito); Comitato E.T.S.T. (Eddison Tollett li seppellirà tutti); Comitato M.E.F.H. (Martin esci fuori Howland) gemellato con M.E.F.W. (Martin esci fuori Willas); Comitato T.M.G.M.S. (Theon Mezzo Greyjoy Mezzo Stark); Comitato Y.L.J.E.M. (Ygritte levati, Jon è mio); Comitato Pro Jojen e Meera Reed; Comitato G.M.S.S. (Giù le mani da Sansa Stark); Comitato L'unico Vero Aegon (ovvero l'Egg delle novelle);
La profezia sul regno e la morte di Egg ha fatto scalpore, ma quella su Dunk che diventerà più ricco di un Lannister è forse ancora più importante.
GRRM potrebbe aver rivelato ad Ira Parker che la scomparsa di Rohanne Webber nel 230 AC è stata una fuga da Gerold Lannister per stare con Dunk, un'anticipazione della separazione di Sansa da Tyrion in ASOS e del futuro ricongiungimento con Sandor Clegane in TWOW.
Mi arrischio in ulteriori ipotesi, e giungo a dire che Rohanne e Dunk potrebbero aver avuto un figlio, da cui ha avuto poi origine Casa Clegane. Dopo la morte di Rohanne, Dunk si è infine unito alla Guardia Reale. Gerold Lannister, promotore di un re improbabile, prefigura forse l'ascesa al trono di Bran in ADOS sostenuta da Tyrion, uno scenario suggerito dal pur criticabilissimo finale di GOT.

Allora, la puntata è bella e la serie mi sta piacendo ma.. solo io ho un problema con la rappresentazione dei Targaryen?
Intendo proprio in senso visivo: a parte uno (che comunque ha un taglio molto corto e "moderno" e che si discosta dall'immagine data a praticamente tutti i Targaryen apparsi in GOT e HOTD), gli altri hanno un aspetto normalissimo e potrebbero tranquillamente confondersi con Lord di altre casate.
Poi non ho idea se nella novella originale fossero descritti così, ma a me ha fatto un po' strano^^
@ryer
Queste sono le descrizioni dei Targaryen nella novella:
Baelor
Even seated, he looked to be a head taller than the other, to judge from the long straight legs stretched out before him. His short-cropped hair was dark and peppered with grey, his strong jaw clean-shaven. His nose looked as though it had been broken more than once. Though he was dressed very plainly, in green doublet, brown mantle, and scuffed boots, there was a weight to him, a sense of power and certainty.
Valarr
He was a shorter, slimmer, handsomer version of his sire, without the twice-broken nose that had made Baelor seem more human than royal. Valarr's hair was brown, but a bright streak of silver-gold ran through it.
Maekar
Thickly built and powerful, the prince—he was surely a prince— wore a leather brigandine covered with silver studs beneath a heavy black cloak trimmed with ermine. Pox scars marked his cheeks, only partly concealed by his silvery beard.
His straight hair and square-cut beard were so fair they seemed white in the dimness of the hall, but as he got closer he saw that they were in truth a pale silvery color touched with gold.
Daeron
A young lordling in a fine damask mantle was passed out at one table, snoring softly into a pool of spilled wine.
His face had a sallow, unhealthy cast to it beneath a rat's nest of sandy brown hair, and blond stubble crusted his chin.
Aerion
The speaker wore a black cloak bordered in scarlet satin, but underneath was raiment bright as flame, all reds and yellows and golds. Slim and straight as a dirk, though only of middling height, he was near Dunk's own age. Curls of silver-gold hair framed a face sculpted and imperious; high brow and sharp cheekbones, straight nose, pale smooth skin without blemish. His eyes were a deep violet color.
Aegon
The lad looked to be no more than eight or nine, a pasty-faced skinny thing, his bare feet caked in mud up to the ankle. His hair was the queerest thing about him. He had none.
He had blue eyes, Dunk saw, very dark, almost purple. His bald head made them seem huge, somehow.
The time between the notes relates the colour to scenes,
A constant vogue of triumphs dislocate man, so it seems,
And space between the focus shape ascend knowledge of love
As song and chance develop time lost social temperance rules above
Then according to the man who showed his outstretched arm to space,
He turned around and pointed revealing all the human race,
I shook my head and smiled a whisper knowing all about the place

Devo ancora vedere il 3 e il 4 episodio
Vorrei chiederti una cosa che magari mi è sfuggita. Ma nella serie sono stati nominati, citati o comunque esistono( in relazione al canone della serie), tutti e quattro i figli di Daeron?Oltre a Baelor e Maekar naturalmente..
"Power resides where men believe it resides. No more and no less."
Grazie. Quindi si sono abbastanza attenuti, almeno per quelli che si son visti.
Ovviamente il principe fetente avrebbe i capelli lunghi, probabile che glieli abbian fatti corti per non renderlo un possibile clone di Daemon, Aemond etc.
@JonSnow1992
Aerys e Rhaegel sono menzionati da Baelor nel secondo episodio:
"Daeron [il figlio di Maekar] belongs on a tourney field no more than Aerys or Rhaegel"

Grazie mille. Quindi fino ad ora non hanno tagliato nessuno dei 4 figli e delle rispettive progenie giusto?
