Notes:
(See the end of the chapter for
notes.)
'In the Field of Fire there were more than forty and
five thousand men and it was of absolutely no use
for them.' Aegon reflected, knowing firsthand that
an army well prepared in that battle would have
been a tougher nut to crack.
" Ugh ... Ugh ... Ugh ... No need ... it’s already
out." Aegon said breathlessly. The weight of the
chest was undoubtedly excessive. And he was very
tired after barely getting a couple of naps in the
last five days.
Uncle Aemon felt the ring with his left hand, and
as he did so, a a toothless smile came out of his
mouth, while his expressions were totally relaxed.
"Dracarys"
Notes:
All inspiration for the
administrative policy structure of
the Freehold comes from the
reforms of Solon and Cleisthenes
in Athens, the Athenian civic
structure, the reflections of Plato
(Republic Book IV), Polybius (On
Rome), Aristotle (The Forms of
Government ), Saint Augustine
(The City of God), The city-states
of Northern Italy in the late
Middle Age, the elective method
of the night watch / Ironborn and
the structures of the Lower
Republic / High Roman Empire
and certain touches of Roosevelt's
New Deal (The monopolization
and direction of production and
its means).
This chapter is along with Eddard
II's the longest in fiction.
I can understand that it is not the
most attractive chapter due to the
lack of "action", but for my
history and the construction of
the "Free" Freehold, I need the
Targaryen conquest /
establishment/ blood claims to
have a historically viable base
and above all I wanted to end the
vassal society based on oaths to
the domains.
Although it is high fantasy, I
cannot write something that I
know is unfeasible at the political-
structural level of medieval age.
Daenerys's big problem in ADWD
and surely in AWoW is and will
be, her pathetic management /
rule of the conquered territories.
One cannot decapitate economic
structures, productive and social
aspects of a society / culture and
move forward hoping that it
idyllically governs itself.
It is understandable that Dany in
the books, 14 -17 years old and
with no preparation, makes such
shit. But in this case we are
talking about a figure by which
time itself bends before him,
Aejon (Before the conquest /
After the conquest) who has the
help of, according to all that is
known about him in canon, one of
the most brilliant people in
Westerosi history, like Rhaegar
Targaryen, his father
Aemon will appear more and will
continue to spread wisdom (in
this chapter he's Socrates LOL)
