The not-so-hidden secret about the fantasies of George R.R.
Even in the case of Tyrion Lannister, who might feature the yarns biggest heart despite his smaller size.
He is both a villain and a hero.
A monster and a reformer on the side of the commoners.
As king, Richard III founded what would become known decades later as the Court of Requests.
And what did he get for his troubles?
Perhaps most infamously damning is how Shakespeare projected the king inRichard III.
A drastic reason for Richards supposed villainy stems largely from Tudor propaganda after they supplanted the last Plantagenet monarch.
He had succeeded his brother, Edward IV, in that department.
Thus these kids were illegitimate!
Richard III put them in safe keeping within the Tower of London while he was crowned two weeks later.
Shortly thereafter, the kids vanished without a trace from history.
Henceforth, his name is mud in Westerosi history books.
Beyond that unfortunate comparison, Tyrion should be proud of his kinship with the last Medieval British King.
And like Tyrion after Blackwater, Richards whereabouts were quickly forgotten.
A harbinger of things to come for the Imp Lannister?
Much like Tyrion Lannister, Richard III always gets a bad reputation.
