Especially not with the support of Braavos/Pentos. There's no way. Not even the Red Priests were able to sway public opinion. Not to mention that freedmen would be worshipping Petyr and his changes. The 'elite' would be too scared after seeing the fates of their former masters. This just smacks of lazy writing and contrived plot developments. You want Petyr to have obstacles and conflict without an adequate set-up nor the fact that given his Gamer-talents and skills he wouldn't be susceptible to them. Especially that whole scene with Ashara. How gross. A Westerosi noblewoman arguing in favor (*or saying that why bother to change it*) of slavery because of the parallels between kings and smallfolk? For shame, mate. You wouldn't get Olenna Tyrell at her worst trying to argue that one let alone a character like Ashara Dayne. Dorne has the least amount of class divide in Westeros and the Daynes, in particular, are brought up on honour and protecting the weak - true noblisse oblige of the time.

2022-04-15 05:45:59 +0000 UTCThis feels lazy. The end result is possible but not the steps that were taken to get there. A canon Myr on fire because of discontent by the ruling class against the abolition of slavery? Sure. But fanfic(the ladder)-Myr after the Betrayal with a high degree of propaganda and wealth distribution and a feeling of patriotism for overthrowing the corrupt Magisters? Nope. It doesn't make any sense whatsoever. It's like you wrote '4' without writing 2+2=?
