Yeah, he's fit to be king, but he'd probably be "fair" and "just" to a fault. Imagine if he cut off the fingers of everybody who did something wrong and then made amends for their crimes? There'd be a run on hand-crafted Dornish finger bags.

Just think, had Jon Connington rooted out Robert Baratheon at Stoney Sept we could be in the twilight years of a the prosperous reign of Rhaegar Targaryen.

How the F does Davos not get that skin disease when Stannis' daughter kisses his cheek, but Jorah does?
How the F do the Iron Islands have all this wood to build ships? Every time there's a scene there, all rocks and no trees.

Shireen's disease has been cured/made dormant. Jorah touched a Stone Man which is a person in the advanced stages of the disease and has not been cured.
I'm pretty sure only kids can recover fro, Greyscale. If an adult gets it they're done for.

I assume that they use boats to go to other places and collect the necessary wood. They probably have quite the stockpile.Bammer wrote:How the F do the Iron Islands have all this wood to build ships? Every time there's a scene there, all rocks and no trees.

The real logistics question here is, how will they manage to build 1000 ships in a timely manner?
