The '''Battle for Dawn''' was first war against [[the Others]] during [[the Long Night]].

==History==
In the midst of this darkness a race of apparent demons, called the [[The Others|Others]] emerged from the uttermost north, wielding razor-thin swords of ice and raising the dead to fight the living. The [[Children of the Forest]] and their allies, the [[First Men]], fought valiantly against them, but were driven southwards by their advance.<ref>[[A Game of Thrones]], [[A Game of Thrones-Chapter 24|Chapter 24]], Bran</ref> The Others were eventually checked when it was discovered that weapons made of [[dragonglass]] could kill them. A great hero, who in the eastern tradition is known as [[Azor Ahai]], led the war against the Others wielding his sword of fire, [[Lightbringer]]. Eventually the Others were driven back into the [[Lands of Always Winter]].

Brandon Stark, known as [[Bran the Builder]], raised a great [[Wall]] of ice, gravel and magic, stretching one hundred leagues from the [[Gorge]] to the [[Shivering Sea]] to prevent the Others coming again. Brandon Stark was declared the First King in the North. The fortress of [[Winterfell]] (and possibly [[Storm's End]] in the south) was built at this time, and the [[Night's Watch]] founded to maintain a watch on the Wall. A later prophecy claimed that the Others would return and Azor Ahai, the [[Azor Ahai|Prince that was Promised]], would be reborn to lead the fight.<ref>[[A Game of Thrones (game)|A Game of Thrones RPG and Resource Book]], Guardians of Order</ref>

A '''Swan ship''' is a large ocean-going vessel designed and built in the [[Summer Islands]]. The true name of the design is unknown, going by the name 'swan ship' in the [[Seven Kingdoms]].

==History==
Long Jon took over the inn when he retired from adventuring. He took up ironworking and forged a sign in the shape of a dragon out of black iron that would clank in the wind. This gave his inn its new name, the Clanking Dragon.

However when the Long Jon's son was an old man, the [[Blackfyre Rebellion]] broke out and the black dragon sign enraged Lord [[House Darry|Darry]], who was a fierce [[House Targaryen|Targaryen]] supporter. Lord Darry cut down the sign and hacked it to pieces.<ref>[[A Feast for Crows]], [[A Feast for Crows-Chapter 37|Chapter 37]], Brienne</ref>

A Golden Crown

Lordberry:

[[File:GoT A Golden Crown.jpg|Caption = Drogo's "crowning" of Viserys by pouring molten gold onto his head was acclaimed by critics.]]

"'''A Golden Crown'''" is the sixth episode of the [[w:HBO|HBO]] [[w:medieval fantasy|medieval fantasy]] television series ''[[Game of Thrones]]'', first aired on May 22, 2011. Runtime is 53 minutes. The teleplay was written by [[w:Jane Espenson|Jane Espenson]], [[w:David Benioff|David Benioff]] and [[w:D. B. Weiss|D. B. Weiss]] from a story by Benioff and Weiss, and directed by [[w:Daniel Minahan|Daniel Minahan]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://winter-is-coming.net/features/episode-guide/|title=Episode Guide|work=Winter is Coming.net|accessdate=May 16, 2011}}</ref>The episode's plot depicts the deterioration of the political balance of the [[Seven Kingdoms]], with [[Eddard Stark]] having to deal with the [[House Lannister|Lannister]] aggressions while King Robert is away on a hunt. On the [[Eyrie]] the Imp is put on trial, and [[across the Narrow Sea]] [[Viserys Targaryen]] is determined to force [[Drogo]] to pay him his debts and get crowned as a king.In the words of reviewer Jace Lacob, the episode "revolves around changes both great and small, about the way the scales can fall from our eyes and we can see the truth that has been standing in front of us for so long. For Ned, it's a realization of just why Jon Arryn died, of the terrible secret he had gleaned from the book of royal lineages, and just what this could mean for the throne... and for the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros. For Dany, it's the brutal truth of her brother's real nature, of his insatiable thirst for power and the twisted quality of his rampant heart."<ref name="tel">{{Cite web|url=http://www.televisionaryblog.com/2011/05/as-crow-flies-as-lion-roars-golden.html|title=As the Crow Flies, As the Lion Roars: A Golden Crown on Game of Thrones|work=Televisionary|last=Lacob|first=Jace|accessdate=May 24, 2011}}</ref>
==Plot==
[[List of Game of Thrones episodes|List of ''Game of Thrones'' episodes]]
===In the North===
[[Bran Stark]] ([[w:Isaac Hempstead-Wright|Isaac Hempstead-Wright]]) is awakened from one of his recurring dreams of a [[three-eyed crow]] with the pleasant surprise that the specially designed saddle that will allow him to ride has been finished. He goes to test it in the forest under the supervision of his brother [[Robb Stark|Robb]] ([[w:Richard Madden|Richard Madden]]) and [[Theon Greyjoy]] ([[w:Alfie Allen|Alfie Allen]]).

While Theon is trying to convince Robb to avenge his father for the Lannister's attack, a small group of wildlings that have ventured south capture Bran. Robb and Theon manage to kill all the men and capture the woman ([[w:Natalia Tena|Natalia Tena]]), but despite Theon's help, Robb chastises him for endangering Bran's life when he shot an arrow at the wildling that was holding Bran.
===In the Vale===
[[Tyrion]] ([[w:Peter Dinklage|Peter Dinklage]]) is able to trick [[Lysa Arryn]] ([[w:Kate Dickie|Kate Dickie]]) into summoning a court to listen to his confession which reveals he had nothing to do with the attempt on Bran's life and Lysa's husband's death. After the Imp publicly demands a trial by combat and the mercenary [[Bronn]] ([[w:Jerome Flynn|Jerome Flynn]]) volunteers to fight for him, she is forced to allow it. Bronn manages to defeat Lysa's champion by tiring the heavily armored knight, and Tyrion is allowed to walk free with Bronn as his escort much to the despair of the Tully sisters.

===At King's Landing===
Ned awakes in his chambers with Robert and [[Cersei]] watching over him. Cersei accuses Ned of kidnapping her brother, Tyrion, and claims he was drunk and attacked [[Jaime Lannister|Jaime]] first, but she is silenced by a slap from Robert. After she leaves, Robert tells Ned that he cannot rule the kingdoms if the Lannisters and Starks are at war and insists that Ned remain the [[Hand of the King]], or else he will give the position to Jaime. He also informs Ned that he will be the acting King while he is on a hunting trip. Meanwhile, [[Arya]] deals with her father's injury and losing Jory during her sword-dance lessons; Syrio tells her it's a perfect opportunity for her to learn to avoid distraction while fighting. In the Stark's common room, [[Sansa]] and Septa [[Mordane]] are interrupted by Prince [[Joffrey]], who apologizes to Sansa for his earlier behavior and gives her a necklace.

While acting as King, Ned learns that Ser [[Gregor Clegane|Gregor "The Mountain" Clegane]] was spotted leading brigands and attacking villages in the [[Riverlands]]. Realizing this is revenge for Tyrion's arrest, Ned orders Gregor's arrest, strips him of his lands and titles, and summons his Lord [[Tywin Lannister]] to answer for Gregor's actions. Fearing war with the Lannisters and for his daughters' lives, he orders Arya and Sansa to return to Winterfell for their safety. Sansa protests and mentions Joffrey's blond hair; Ned realizes something and re-reads the book of lineages of the [[House Baratheon|Baratheon]] family. Doing so, he puts the pieces together: Joffrey does not have black hair like his father, his father's ancestors, and Robert's bastards whom he and [[Jon Arryn]] had been researching. Ned concludes Joffrey is not Robert's real son.
===Across the Narrow Sea===
[[Daenerys]] takes one of the dragon eggs and places it on a glowing-hot brazier. She reaches in and picks the blisteringly hot egg up. Her handmaiden rushes in to take the hot egg from her hands, burning herself in the process. Daenerys' hands are unscathed.In [[Vaes Dothrak]], Daenerys begins the ritual with the [[Khaleen]] by eating a raw heart of a stallion. After some struggle, she completes the task and stands up to proclaim her unborn son as the Khal who will unite the entire world under one banner, and she names him [[Rhaego]]. Viserys grows angry at his sister's popularity among the Dothraki, but [[Jorah Mormont]] urges patience. Viserys will have none of it, though, and sneaks away to Daenerys' tent to steal the dragon eggs to fund his army. However, Jorah confronts him and forces him to leave the eggs behind, and Viserys storms off after a tense exchange of barbed words between the two men.Later, at a feast for Daenerys and Khal Drogo, a drunken Viserys draws his sword on his sister, threatening that if the Khal does not give him an army to take back the Seven Kingdoms, he will take back Daenerys and cut out the child from her. Khal Drogo agrees to give him the "Golden Crown" that he wants. But to Viserys' horror, the "Golden Crown" is actually molten gold to be poured onto his head. Daenerys watches her brother's death without care and coldly replies: "He was no dragon. Fire cannot kill a dragon."

==Production==
[[File:Portrait of Jane Espenson.jpg|thumb|upright|Jane Espenson received a co-credit on the teleplay of the episode.]]
===Writing===
[
The teleplay for "A Golden Crown" was written by [[w:Jane Espenson|Jane Espenson]], [[w:David Benioff|David Benioff]] and [[w:D. B. Weiss|D. B. Weiss]] from a story by Benioff and Weiss, based on ''[[A Game of Thrones]]'' by [[George R. R. Martin]]. The episode includes the book's chapters 37 to 40, 43 to 44, and 46 of the book ([[A Game of Thrones-Chapter 37|Bran V]], [[A Game of Thrones-Chapter 38|Tyrion V]], [[A Game of Thrones-Chapter 39|Eddard X]], [[A Game of Thrones-Chapter 40|Catelyn VII]], [[A Game of Thrones-Chapter 43|Eddard XI]], [[A Game of Thrones-Chapter 44|Sansa III]], and [[A Game of Thrones-Chapter 46|Daenerys V]]). Chapter 41 ([[A Game of Thrones-Chapter 41|Jon V]]), dealing with [[Jon Snow]] convincing [[Maester Aemon]] to allow [[Samwell Tarly|Samwell]] join the Watch as a steward, was removed from the series,<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://sf-fantasy.suvudu.com/2011/05/game-of-thrones-you-win-or-you-die.html|title=Game of Thrones: You Win or You Die|work=Suvudu|last=Garcia|first=Elio|accessdate=May 31, 2011}}</ref> and chapter 42 was moved to [[The Pointy End|episode 8]]. Among the scenes created specifically for the show were another training session between Arya and Syrio, an attempt by Viserys to steal [[Daenerys]]' eggs that is prevented by Ser [[Jorah Mormont]], an apology from [[Joffrey]] to [[Sansa]], and the Northern whore [[Ros]] leaving [[Winterfell]].<ref name="ran">{{Cite web|url=http://www.westeros.org/GoT/Episodes/Entry/A_Golden_Crown/Book_Spoilers/|title=EP106: A Golden Crown|work=Westeros.org|last=Garcia|first=Elio|accessdate=May 24, 2011}}</ref>

===Casting===
The episode introduces the recurring character of the wildling Osha. The writer of the original books, George R. R. Martin, admitted that this is the casting that is more different from the idea he had of the character. As he explains, he was surprised to see that actress [[w:Natalia Tena|Natalia Tena]] was being considered for the role since [[Osha]] had been conceived as a hard-bitten older woman and the actress was "too young and too hot". However, when he saw the audition tapes he was convinced with the new approach: "she was sensational, and I said, 'It's gotta be her.'"<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://winter-is-coming.net/2011/01/roundtable-discussion-with-grrm/|title=Roundtable discussion with GRRM|work=Winter is Coming.net|accessdate=May 24, 2011}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://grrm.livejournal.com/165235.html|title=Actors, Actors Everywhere|first=George R.R.|last=Martin|work=Not a Blog|accessdate=May 24, 2011}}</ref>

VanDerWerff commented on the difficulty to adapt such an evolution from page to screen, but concluded that "Clarke and Lloyd more than seal the deal here."<ref name="av"/>Another aspect of the show that was widely discussed among commentators was the moral dilemma presented in the episode between a pragmatic approach to ruling or remaining true to the ideals of justice and honor, exemplified in the scene where Eddard summons Tywin Lannister to the court to answer for the crimes of his bannerman Gregor Clegane. Poniewozik states that Eddard "doesn't seem to consider that he has options: he is left to rule in the king's place, an injustice has been committed, the law requires one path to justice and he chooses it. This makes his decision easy, but it may make his life, and others', difficult".<ref name="time"/> According to [[w:the Atlantic|the Atlantic]]'s Scott Meslow, "Ned's principles are, as always, admirable, and he's clearly interested in justice. But the sad truth is that the lack of guile that makes him honorable also makes him a pretty poor king. It's a terrible idea to order the arrest of the man who is single-handedly financing your kingdom." <ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2011/05/game-of-thrones-crowns-no-one-wants-to-wear/239281/|title='Game of Thrones': Crowns No One Wants to Wear|work=The Atlantic|first=Scott|last=Meslow|accessdate=May 24, 2011}}</ref> Myles McNutt, writing for Cultural Learnings, agrees with him and concludes that "The only thing more dangerous than a reckless man asserting their power in Westeros is an honorable man doing the same, as it threatens the delicate framework which has propped up King Robert for so long."<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://cultural-learnings.com/2011/05/22/game-of-thrones-a-golden-crown/|title=Game of Thrones – “A Golden Crown”|work=Cultural Learnings|first=Myles|last=McNutt|accessdate=May 24, 2011}}</ref>

Wedding tourney at Whitewalls

2010-10-19T15:20:49Z

Lordberry:

The '''Whitewalls Tourney''' was the tourney held by Lord [[Ambrose Butterwell]] to celebrate his second marriage to Lady [[House Frey|Frey]]. It was held at [[Whitewalls]] and was the grounds for the [[Second Blackfyre Rebellion]].

==The Joust==
The format was a standard knock-out tournament; only few outcomes are known to us, and the tourney was aborted prematurely when an army led by [[Bloodraven]] attacked Whitewalls. Two knights entered the lists under false names: [[Duncan the Tall]] as the mystery “Gallows Knight,” [[Daemon II Blackfyre]] as “John the Fiddler.” The prize for the winner was supposed to have been a dragon egg, but it was stolen before it could be awarded.<ref>[[The Mystery Knight]]</ref>

* Ser [[Franklyn Frey]] defeated Ser [[Harbert Paege]] (5 tilts)
* Ser [[Glendon Flowers]] defeated [[Argrave the Defiant]] (1 tilt)
* Lord [[Joffrey Caswell]] defeated Ser [[Kyle|Kyle the Cat of Misty Moor]] (1 tilt)
* Ser [[Uthor Underleaf]] defeated Ser [[Duncan the Tall]] (1 tilt)
* Ser [[Uthor Underleaf]] defeated Ser [[Addam Frey]]
* Ser Glendon Flowers defeated Lord [[Alyn Cockshaw]]
* [[Daemon II Blackfyre]] defeated Ser [[Franklyn Frey]]
* Ser Glendon Flowers defeated Lord [[House Costayne|Costayne]]
* Ser Glendon Flowers defeated Ser [[Mortimer Boggs]]
* Ser [[Tommard Heddle]] defeated Ser [[Clarence Charlton]]
* Ser [[Uthor Underleaf]] defeated Ser [[Theomore Bulwer]] (5 tilts)
* [[Daemon II Blackfyre]] defeated Ser [[Galtry the Green]] (10 tilts)

The tourney was then interrupted by claims that a thief had stolen the dragon egg. The next tilt would have been:

* Ser [[Tommard Heddle]] versus Ser [[Uthor Underleaf]]
