🧙‍♂️ The Tragedy of Willem Blackwood | House of the Dragon

Willem Blackwood is a badass, but there’s a lot more to him and his heroism than meets the eyes in House of the Dragon. This little guy showed up to try and marry a Targaryen princess, drew swords on a Bracken buffoon, killed that Bracken, and then walked away like the hero of legend we all know he will be. Honestly it’s surprising that Rhaenyra didn’t marry Willem Blackwood on the spot However I think this scene has a lot more going on than many are giving it credit for. Rather than just fan service for obsessive book fans, It’s being used to foreshadow important events, tell us more about the character flaws of Rhaenyra, and show how small moments like this can be the butterfly wing flaps that become tsunamis.    Link to video: https://youtu.be/pq5A3npVWVU Fire and Blood by George RR Martin: https://amzn.to/3bXgQif Audible Free Trial: https://www.audibletrial.com/Joemagician for a free 30 day subscription  🧙Subscribe: http://bit.ly/2EBHniX🎧Podcast Feed: https://apple.co/2XQ8kH5🐦Twitter: http://bit.ly/2ESrfJp⚗️Patreon: https://bit.ly/2HQ6cVd👕Threadless Shop: https://joemagician.threadless.com/🕹️Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/joemagician📷Instagram: https://bit.ly/2Mao9Bd🔮Questions: [email protected]📜Blog: https://joemagician.wordpress.com/ Maester Level Patrons:Maester ArianeMaester Anime Lover NicoleMaester AxeyMaester CarleyMaester CharboiMaester Christian CelisMaester Clopening ArgumentsMaester Crowfoods DaughterMaester David AlexanderMaester Devorah LynchMaester FitterMaester Guilty UndertakerMaester HerbiePushedTonyMaester Jen SnowMaester Jenny BirdMaester Julie beth of tarthMaester Juliette OMaester June CoatesMaester Katherine StampMaester Kayla ClaytonMaester Kenneth HammerMaester Kraken QueenMaester Kristen CMaester Lady Pembroke of the House Fluffybottom, Mother of Corgis.Maester Lemmie BeeMaester Lone starke stateMaester  EmmaMaester Jakub ŠenkýřMaester JimiMaester  ZenMaester Ned JMaester Nessie the Questing Beast and Archmaseter Valyrian TinfoilMaester NiadoMaester Nienna, Student of the Children and Healer of HeartsMaester Old Nan72Maester Paul HMaester Preston PMaester Reflective RamlbingMaester Renny CMaester RMaester Sam HollyerMaester Sanrixian, Mother of DrawgonsMaester Sarah CMaester Sassa KMaester ScottMaester Scott WMaester Ser Riger the Knight CookMaester Shael de PintoMaester Soren JMaester Stephanie SMaester Steve MMaester The Prince That Was FreshMaester Two RavensMaester Tyler DowdallMaester Wolfman ZackMaester Ygritte TargaryenMaester Zalaritas   Art Credits:HBO Game of ThronesHBO House of the DragonSanrixian http://sanrixian.com/en/George RR MartinWizards of the CoastMagali Villeneuve http://www.magali-villeneuve.com/Elena María Vacas https://www.artstation.com/artwork/2k8yK   Music Credit:Intro music: Manuel Senfft www.tagirijus.deTagirijus - Hidden Castle  "Ritual" "Heroic Age" "Cryptic Sorrow" "Dark Times" "Lightless Dawn" "Magic Forest" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/  #GameOfThrones #houseofthedragon #hotd #asoiaf
