  1. Reading about Peredur in the introduction and just now realizing:
    This is where the Fisher King myth comes from.

    A wounded king. A cursed land. A missing question.
    Brân the Blessed: hurt through the thighs, bound to the land, keeper of a sacred cauldron.

    I can see what George R.R. Martin was reaching for with Bran Stark.
    The mythic echoes are there.
    But when the time came, the arc didn’t land — no redemption, no Grail.
