This week, Caroline and Gretchen continue their analysis of Fire & Blood with the seventh chapter, A Surfeit of Rulers Section 1. Alyssa Velaryon takes a back seat and definitely doesn’t do anything or make any decisions, while the Best Boy Jaehaerys trains with his sword for funsies and Alysanne is… also here!
