Ba'al the Bard of the Fandomentals joins me to continue our quest to reveal the true character of Daenerys Targaryen, this week with her ACOK material. Journey through the red waste and on to Qarth with our Khaleesi and true queen, Daenerys Targaryen, as she navigates traps and snares, discovers her path of destiny, and takes on the mantle of leadership. What does the concept fo "magical destiny" mean to Dany, and what does it it say about what she will do when she gets to Westeros?

    We believe that George R. R. Martin has put a lot of effort and thought into creating a deeper dimension of archetype and symbol in his writing. He’s created connections between past and future, between sky and ground. He’s built on classic figures from world mythology and twisted them around in new and incredible ways to fashion his own archetypal characters whose divine roles are played out by the characters in the story. He’s done all of this not only to be artistic and clever, but because he’s actually participating in a grand tradition of esoteric, symbolic art. Keeping this tradition alive is of critical importance and tremendous value to society, and that is why I believe this facet of A Song of Ice and Fire is so worthy of study. This podcast is intended to be our vehicle to explore these inner workings, and it is fueled by enthusiasm, yours and mine.
