00:00A thousand blades, taken from the hands of Aegon's fallen enemies, forged in the fiery breath of Beleriand the Dread.
00:10There aren't a thousand blades. There aren't even two hundred. I've counted.
00:17I'm sure you have. Ugly, old thing. Yet it has a certain appeal.
00:26The Lysa Aran of Chairs. Shame you had to settle for your second choice.
