ASOIAF SPOILER ALERT: Those who haven't finished STORM OF SWORDS, read at your own risk!









You all know that Tywin's death is like...one of my favorite scenes from the whole ASOIAF saga. It has the full blow of a Greek tragedy, and I had been intending to draw this for a while. It's not finished yet, but I thought I'd upload anyway.

Tywin being killed was one of my favorite moments in the entire series. He cared more about the legacy of his family than the family itself, and loved his precious legacy more than he ever loved any of his children. He disowned Jaime when all Jaime wanted to do was try to be a knight of the Kingsguard again, and  belittled and humiliated Tyrion all his life, scarring his other son forever with the lie he concocted about Tysha. He was responsible for the deaths of thousands of innocent people, first in the Sack of King's Landing, and then in the War of Five Kings when he set that psychopath Gregor Clegane loose on the smallfolk. He was a bitter, arrogant many who never gave a second thought to the misery his precious family caused. I hated Tywin Lannister more than any other character in the entire series so far: more than Roose Bolton or Walder Frey, more than Ramsay Snow or Janos Slynt, more even than Cersei and Joffrey.
