Anonymous asked:
In essos, do the languages have a common ancestor, like latin to western europe, or do the different tongues develop separately?
Essos is a huge continent, so the answer has to be no, unless there’s a Proto-World. Working with what we’ve seen, though, I’ve always assumed that Dothraki and Lhazareen came from one family; Valyrian and its various daughter languages came from another; Ghiscari came from another; and Asshai’i came from another. I haven’t seen convincing evidence to lump them further, but that doesn’t mean that new evidence won’t appear. For now I think it’s safe to say those four groups of languages are from four different language families. I think it’s also safe to say, given the size of Essos, that there are probably a number of other language families on the continent, but we haven’t seen—and may never see—them or their associated lands. We’re on the story’s back 9, and it looks like the action is headed back to Westeros, so I doubt we’ll be going much further east on an Essos. But who knows? I certainly have no inside information. We just have to wait and see!

Comparison between Snape and Akkarin
1. Both Snape and Akkarin are secret agents. They work undercover to fight the ultimate enemy, and cannot let anyone else know, except for a trusted few(one). Except that Snape is a double agent, while Akkarin…he’s not really a ‘double-agent’. More of a ‘secret undercover spy’.
2. They both fight to protect the ones that they love. Snape fought to protect what was left of his love, while Akkarin fought for the love of his country, and then finding love and protecting her too.
3. They were both very, very brave.
4. They returned to fight even though they have been abandoned and betrayed. Snape was labelled as a traitor by the Order, but still fought for them in the end. Akkarin was exiled, but still returned to save his country.
5. They both watched their first love die in the hands of the enemy, unable to do anything. Snape held on to the past, Akkarin went on and found a new love.
6. They wear BLACK (robes).
7. They sacrificed their closest friend/confidant in order to protect the greater good. Snape killed Dumbledore, Akkarin couldn’t save Lorlen because he needed the power to fight. (How I hated that)
8. They gave everything in order to protect what they love.
9. They sacrificed their lives during the final battle but never got to see the end.
10. Yet they never stopped loving.
It saddens me greatly that there is no fandom for the black magician trilogy books by Trudi Canavan
Overthinking ruins you. It ruins the situation, twists it around, makes you worry and just makes everything much worse than it actually is.
