Hello and welcome to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire one chapter a week!
 

In this episode, Dany descends into hell, aka Astapor, our first city in Slaver's Bay.
 
This week, we: 
 

- Introduce Slaver's Bay as the major new setting in ASOS
- Dig into the hellish imagery of Astapor specifically
- Explore the cultural context of the history and language used here
- Take stock of the horrors involved in the training of the Unsullied
- Analyze Barristan's role in Dany's decision-making process


 
Next week: we finish up Dany's introduction to Astapor in ASOS, Daenerys II!
