The story of Elissa Farman is all from the new book Fire & Blood, so there was almost no relevant GOT imagery to put in this video. Instead, we used artwork from a bunch of different sources, including some old paintings, which was fun – sources are all listed in the vid description.

This video is probably the most storytelling-heavy that we've done, rather than focussing on theories and analysis. So it was relatively quick to make, though some of the map effects were fiddly. Hope you like it!

Thanks to Patron Paul Barry for suggesting the title "What's west of Westeros?" 🙂

There are a couple minor motion issues in the vid that we'll fix for the final public version.

With Elissa done, we're continuing with vids on GOT S1E02, Wonders of GOT, Stark history, and a big GOT recap – we'll also do a big wrap-up Patreon post for the new year.

Happy holidays!
