Yeah, I think her definition of slave is just being forced into labour. Only working for food and lodging doesn't sound good.

The Unsullied go to bars and brothels though, so they do have money that comes from somewhere at least. Not sure how exactly they receive that money.

I haven't heard that theory before. But I hope there's something interesting involving Bran's abilities, the Nightwalkers and the Prince that was Promised prophecy. Though at this pace, the books will come out right after Final Fantasy 7 Remake in 2045.

Yep if they are on middle age setting most people would be ok with working for food and lodging.

Think about like in LotR, magic fading little by little from the world as humans take over and the other sentient creatures leave/die.

Most people don't believe the night walkers, old religion, etc. So with the end of the night king, targaryen, valyrians and Bran basically most of the magic will be gone and become stuff from legends in couple generations.

How in God's name did you get to that conclusion!??

Humans tend to hate what they fear. That has been scientifically proven over and over. If you are scared of spiders, snakes, rats, cuckcroaches etc, etc, you automatically want to see them dead. That's just..  human nature.

And yes, most tyrants that have ruled through fear in human history have been murdered in the end.

There is a difference between fearing someone because he is to powerful and if you disobey the law you may be dead and fearing someone because he kills innocent people randomly. On the first one you may think that as long as you behave you are ok, on the second there is no option. So it is quite easy to see why the first may work but the second won't.

Yeah, but no matter what kind of fear a person instils into you; you are still very much likely to hate that person for making you feel that way. Or is that just me?
