The History of House Royce | ASOIAF Animated

house Harroway?

Herse a video idea, In the books the Stark's where not as wealthy as the Lannister's, however they where a lot wealthier than in the show.

First of all Winterfell was much larger, not the dumpy keep in the show. The castle's towers are taller in the books and three acers alone are set aside for the God's Wood.

At the Feast for King Robert they all dressed magnificently, including Benjen Stark who wears by far the fanciest blacks in the whole story. Rich velvet, high leather boots, a silver buckle on his wide belt, and a heavy silver chain.

When they go to Kings Landing Ned orders a new uniform for his guards, silver chain mail, yes silver not iron and long cloaks of heavy grey wool decorated with white satin borders. These cloaks are pinned with hands of beaten silver. Likewise Ned always wore his council silk as Hand Of The King and when he was stead on the Iron Throne he wore a white doublet embossed with a grey dire wolf.

Back in Winterfell Bran is attacked by the wildings because of his wolf's-head brooch of silver and polished jet. This is just to go riding this is not a formal event. When Theon was living with the Starks he wore a lot of gold which makes Balon think his gotten soft. When Theon took Winterfell he ordered a crown made for himself as the self styled Prince Of Winterfell incrusted with gold nuggets and black diamonds likely form Winterfell's plundered treasury.

At the Harvest Feast in Winterfell Bran is quote, dressed as befits a Prince and drinks from a silver goblet worked in the shape of a dire wolfs head. Catelyn describes her son Robbs royal robes as quote magnificent. He also wears crown of bronze and iron.

Sansa is also fond of blue silk gowns and Jon Snow wears black mole skin gloves.

The Great Hall in Winterfell is large enough to seat five hundred people and has a throne dating back to when the Starks where Kings In The North. There is a Library Tower with old and rare Valyrian Scrolls.

Now look at Maester Luwin he has is own tower and servants of his own, the Starks top servants have servants.

Remember Winterfell is built atop a hot spring and there are pipes in the Great Keep where the Starks live. The Starks also have a glass garden in which they are able to grow plants not native to the North what ever the season. Knowing that Sansa loves lemon cakes we can assume there is a lemon tree in the glass garden importing those seeds all the way form The Reach or Doren would not be cheap. As Lord Commander Of The Nights Watch Jon considers buildings a Glass Garden but thinks it will be costly.

Lord Eddard also built a Sept for Lady Catelyn.

Not as Wealthy as the Lannister but clearly one of the wealthiest families in the known world.

Can you play Ck3 game of thrones 😊❤

Great video!

I love the theory that Weymar is related fairly closely to Jon Snow, through the Stark line which is why the white walkers saught him out as he went beyond the wall, and why they laughed as they killed him

thankyou

Pretty underrated House, cool aesthetic too. And their family's seat is cool too, the Castle "Runestone". I hope their House survives the test of time, seem pretty dope.

(Also, "F" in the chat for the lady Rhae Royce, Daemon did her dirty. Not to mention, he was banned from being in the Vale by Lady Jayne Arryn herself, even after being allied to the Black's. 😅)

do House Mallister of Seagard next, they are the Royce of Riverlands!

Frankly the Arryns should not have been named lord paramounts by the targaryens.
Since they bent the knee, they have constantly tried to usurp each other, formed rebellions against the ruling Arryn, committed treason by trying to secede from the realm and declare themselves king again, they have few allies of their own, their branches constantly jostle for power and do not obey their liege lord or lady, like how the gulltown Arryn's sided with Aerys, caused sucession crisis's several times etc.
Jeyne Arryn for example really screwed up by refusing to marry and then on her deathbed naming a 4th cousin who has never been taught to rule anything, assuming that her other cousins line would just accept this and that they all would accept her choice.
As we know, they in fact did not, and even the Royces preferred edric Arryn to her choice.
And then a good size rebellion happened, which needed the kings army to sort out, showing they are weak.
Consistently the Royces are more liked then the Arryns, and it says something when they all accepted a Royce ruling as regent for Jeyne, they aren't the peakes, they are good rulers who are exactly what the Vale needs.
Then in current times you have the mad Lysa and sickly Robert Arryn, who no one likes, and they are all wanting a Royce and several other lords to rule as regents for him and mold him,
Robert is weak and frankly stupid, and by the time of the 4th game of thrones book, everyone knows the most powerful man in the Vale is not Robert, but rather Bronze Yohn Royce, because no one likes Petyr apart from a few lackeys.

That “armor” in the 2003 outline from Jon Snow is interesting.
Even if the Royce have been killed wearing that armor maybe the runes are not meant to shield from mortal weapons, but from White Walkers weapons

Funfact: if bronze and iron are in equal supply bronze is arguably the better material.

For bronze is roughly as hard as iron (but softer than steel). In addition it is much easier to work with. You can only melt iron into a fluid with modern 1860+ AD tech. Otherwise if you want something out of iron you need to heat it up and hammer it into shape.

However bronze you can melt with comparativly simple ovens. Put the liquid into a form, do some fine grinding, done. There have been factories in china and egypt producing hundreths of bronze tools and weapons per day.

Because of this, complex structures like statues, bells and cannons were made out of bronze til Napoleons times.

Also if an iron sword breaks, it is ruined. If a bronze sword breaks, melt it down and get a new one.

Not to mention that bronze doesn't rust.

So why did we stop using bronze? Because it needs copper (rarer than iron) and tin (as rare as uranium). During the bronze age only two greater mines for tin were known. The british isles and a spot in central asia. Transcontinental trade routes with standartized units were needed to fuel the bronze age. And when the trade broke down down, so did the bronze age.

It is likley that people started using iron not because it is superior, but because it is virtually everywhere. And without the international trade making bronze cheap, people used iron as the more economical alternative.

House Serry, House Corbray, House Tully and The Golden Company. My propositions for videos.

i hope they become the new ruling house of the vale
i also want George to tell us what does the royce words mean and where they come from, they're very similar to the Stark's words and kind of north-like so i find it very interesting

One of the best houses in Westeros. They should be the lords of the Vale

Finally more story videos!

The way Bronze Yohn played the game in the war was very very smart

You should do a history of the Knightswatch video

only interesting house in the Vale, alongside Corbrays.

Would love to see a video of the Harlaw. The reader is such an interesting character.

"We Remember" is shockingly similar to "Je me souviens" (I remember) which is the motto of Quebec. There's some interesting parallels to it too in other ways.

With all the sigil ranking, you've somehow insured I'll get excited everytime I see a sigil or how a sigil is incorporated into the artwork and character design! Brilliant! Great video!! 🧡

There's no way a house this cool who appeared in the prologue aren't going to do something spectacular

House Arryn next PLEASEEEEE!!!!!!

I don’t have Casino Money to donate in support of this awesome video. Nice work as always. I love to see it. History of House Beesbury next.

I'll never forget when King Yorwyck Royce defeated King Osgood and said, "I'm getting too old for this Shett."

'House Shett' HA!

Always liked house Royce and their runes

Him literally every vid: “GUyS eVeRY FrEy ExpLAiNeD iS CoMinG SoOn i pROmIsE”
Me:
Yeah, great🫠

Currently cosying up in my blanket in the living room, drinking hot milk 🥛

Hey, so would Gunthor The Bronze Giant be that Nephew of Rhea?

Wow they sure have them runes

Babe wake up fantasy haven just posted

LETS GO ROYCEBROS

The politics in the Vale is one of the storylines lines I’m looking forward to most in TWOW(if we ever get it). The Royces are super important to that plot and I look forward to seeing their future interactions with Sansa.

They seem poised to be the first major ally Sansa makes independent of LF given their family connections and Yohn’s previous desire of wanting to support Robb, and potentially the first step she makes in removing LF’s influence over her.

Just finished watching the new Oversimplified video, and I also have a Fantasy Haven video to see. I'm eating good today.

Nestor Royce enthusiast

this the video the prophecy foretold. I cant believe its finally here

Colshot DOES love the röyces SO he will like THIS

Bold to venture so close to the Lords Declarant while not abiding our call for Muppet Tully support.

Lord Haven strikes again

Cowabunga it is

Lets Go Royce Bros

What did Jon Snows sister Sansa call him to pick on him as a kid?





Jon "know nothing" Snow

Great video!
Alternate fantasy video idea: What if Viserys III invaded Westeros with the dothrakis?

Great video loved every minute 👍

Thank you Lord Haven for the video House Royce is great most of them are cool, to bad about their sword at least they have their bronze armor. Rip Lady Rhea.
I am loving all the character designs
