Edit: here's the final, more polished version of the Dorne video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vqoYIAwmNoAnd the Xtra video is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_DSh_J_3jo

Here's the Dorne video -- all about the Martells and how their story might end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXa1thtJqbo

This is an early version for Patrons – we commissioned some artwork for the video, which is still being finished for the final vid :)

We’ll open another Patron vote to choose a new ASOIAF topic soon. But first, we’re doing something a bit different – in this year’s Patron survey, a lot of you wanted videos on non-fiction real-world stuff – history, science, philosophy. (Alt Shift X originally began with edu content). So we're making a video called Tenbatsu – it’s the story of how our understanding of disaster has changed, from ancient times to today. It’s about religion, history, psychology, and zombie movies. It’s pretty different to our recent videos – and much more #topical, given current events… So it’ll be exciting to see what yall think of the vid. It’s already mostly complete – will be done in the coming weeks.

So we’ll do Tenbatsu, and more ASOIAF, then I wanna do some His Dark Materials, Dune, Foundation, and whatever other cool stories come up. Are there any good shows you're watching, that we should check out?

Thanks for your support!
