I made the previous two. I'm too busy to do one for tonight but I can probably whip something up before next week.

Also, just to be clear, are we're just having a megathread for this season? My precious episode thread format is ruined.

I haven't read any books or watched any leaked episodes so I don't really know. If they are, sorry. Posted in pure innocence.

The switch palaces are marking where Dany's invasion of Westeros moves next after conquering the last kingdom - in the same order of color as in Super Mario World, first yellow then green, red, blue.







Jesus don't look for spoilers in every inocuous thing.

A whole world of imagination beyond the oompah band.
Actually the location of that switch palace near Highgarden does raise a question (if that's a spoiler somehow, whoops). Did the Tyrells just get their money through agriculture, or was there something else? I know the Reach is super fertile but it seems like JUST agriculture wouldn't be enough to rival the Lannisters in terms of wealth.

Once you activate all the switch palaces, you kill all the White Walkers. That blue one's gonna be tough, you're probably not gonna see that one until late Season 7.

They also have a pretty big fleet that they use to conduct trade (mostly with the Summer Isles to the south, though).

When the continent is blanketed in snow for years on end, being the breadbasket is the only surefire money maker.

Yeah, the ideological core of feudalism is that fertile land is the fundamental and ultimate source of power, because everyone needs to eat, especially armies. This is the reason why France was so powerful for so long.

The Tyrells' comparative advantage seems like it would be even greater in a region like Westeros where much of the rest of the continent is: desert, mountains, rocky islands, mountains, and tundra.

I've never tried to wrap my mind around the logistics of a decade long winter and how the hell you're supposed to store food in that situation and I guess I just shouldn't start. :psyduck:

Sansa marrying Tormund to legitimize the Wildlings sounds far more plausible than many things which have already actually happened onscreen.

They've also got the second-largest city after King's Landing, and the largest total population. Lots of rivers. Very conducive to commerce, taxes, tariffs. I think the Oldtown port sees more traffic than King's Landing.

If Hot Pie somehow injected himself into this situation at this moment, that would be the greatest thing that has happened or can happen in this series.
