Ser Jimmy is out sick this week but it let Ser Matt finish a script he has been working on about Skagos in the Winds of Winter!For this episode of Bend the Knee, we’re diving into one of the most mysterious and potentially important locations in all of A Song of Ice and Fire: Skagos. Known as the land of cannibals, unicorns, giant-blooded warriors, and ancient First Men traditions, Skagos has lingered on the edges of the story for years. But with Rickon Stark hidden there, Davos Seaworth sailing to retrieve him, and George R.R. Martin continuing to keep its secrets hidden, we explore why Skagos may be far more than just a remote island. Could it hold the future of House Stark? Why is Rickon’s storyline so different from the HBO adaptation? Could Benjen Stark still be alive and hiding among the stoneborn? And what role might dragonglass, ancient magic, and the old powers of the North play in the coming war against the Others? Join us as we break down the lore, the theories, and why Skagos may become one of the most important locations in The Winds of Winter.Jimmy: https://www.youtube.com/@ChattingWithNuttsMatt's Linktree: https://linktr.ee/supergainsbrosThe reread will continue!
