Hi all, hope you enjoyed the Maesters video!

For the next video, I'd like to do something a bit less complicated, but no less interesting – obsidian, or dragonglass, the black volcanic glass that Sam uses to kill a white walker. There's lots of cool stuff to discuss here – glass candles, the children of the forest, dragons, white walkers, and the possible role of obsidian in the conclusion of the series.

Alternatively, we could do something like the Doom of Valyria, or Valyrian steel or something – let me know what you think (:

I'm aiming to release three videos this month. I think a good general pattern will be one big video and one or two smaller videos each month – that way, I can work on the bigger video in the background, throughout the month, whilst still releasing content fairly regularly – I don't want to have to make you guys wait for ages between videos, as happened with the Maester one.

Anyway, thank you all for your support – am looking forward to getting some more great content out there (:

Dragonglass sounds like a good topic. Would this tie into the glass candles?

JackieRai

Yes to dragonglass!

Ruggero

I like the dragonglass for the short one. Next short one could be cool on a minor character, such as Syrio, and then for the long ones, Varys! The role of religions and gods would also be interesting...

Petra Halbur

Dragonglass sounds interesting

The Doom would also be an interesting topic. Get some more history on the Valyrians and the Targaryens.

out of those 2 options, I'm Team Valyria. Anything is Essos is fascinating.

Andrew Garttmeyer

I loved your last one, some things I have not heard! Good stuff mate! I like the idea of Dragon Glass or the Doom of Valyria...I guess Valyrian Steel would be cool too, lol.

Jason Gray Jr

I'm all for a video on Valyrian Steel. There seems to be a lot of confusion about its actual capabilities and traits online, one big video for analysis would be cool.

Justin Woolhandler

Dragonglass is awesome, but I think that you should include a discussion of Valyrian Steel in the Dragonglass video, then make a separate Old Valyria/Doom video. Then you could work in some fan theories on how dragonglass relates to Valyrian Steel. Especially in light of the show's reveal in the Hardhome episode, I think it makes sense to pair these two together.

Dragonglass is a good topic, getting to talk about glass candles is always cool. Valyrian steel as a topic though lets you talk about the legendary swords forged from it. A few of which are missing in action and may yet show up to influence the story.

Dragonglass would be a great topic. The Doom as well. I'll throw another one out there: Skagos. There's something about the Stoneborn chillin out on their island with with little/no interest in Westeros (as opposed to, say, the Ironborn and all their shenanigans) that piques my interest. And then there's the stuff about cannibals and unicorns (wtf).

Adam

I say make the video about whatever interests you most, since that will most likely make for a better video. And, personally, I'm so damn curious about those freaking glass candles. Can't wait for whatever's next!

Zachary McKeown

Glass candles are made out of obsidian. Obsidian kills Others. Azor Ahai had a flaming sword. For some reason I've never heard somebody point out the connection between obsidian burning with both candles and (potentially) Azor Ahai's sword. Maybe I've just missed those theories? I'd like to hear your take.

Professor Hazard

I am interested in this AND the doom of Valyria!

codeic

Glass and Doom. :)

Luke Freeney

A shorter video sounds like a good idea :) not that there's anything wrong with a huge Maester video but variety is good! I can't wait for the Grand Northern Conspiracy vid whenever you decide to get around to making it

Alt Shift X

Yeah I imagine I'l do the GNC in the next couple months – it's one of the most-requested topics now (:

Alt Shift X

Yeah I think there has been some discussion of connections between obsidian and Lightbringer and Valyrian steel... might touch on that stuff in this vid

Alt Shift X

Yeah a Skagos video would be sweet. I imagine it'd be largely speculative, but still lots of cool stuff to discuss...

Alt Shift X

Yeah I'd definitely talk about glass candles as well.
