Questionable Questing

They would be intrigued by the new technologies and government styles. Maybe even flirt with the idea of introducing low levels of Democracy for smaller villages or towns, or potentially even their own Westeros Parliament. Jon Arryan though wouldn't hesitate to talk about war day one, and burning any books or censoring anything that comes out of America.

Because to him maintaining the current system is the ultimate goal and good, and any threat to it either needs to be destroyed or controlled. Any suggestions of reform or experimenting with new ideas is at best for him an idiotic suggestion and at worst heresy that needs to be purged. He's the perfect example of an Old Guard that refuses to be replaced.

I think your drinking Lyanna's Kool Aid:V

It's kinda amazing to me he comes off as this radical for denying hentai logic corruption

No see that's the most terrifying part about Lyanna. She wouldn't support Democracy or new technology because she sees it's good or that'll improve people's lives. She'll support it because it'll weaken the smaller nobles and knights, by forcing them to compete with newly empowered Small Folk.

By creating a parliament she'll force all disagreements to work their way through it and by extension her, instead of in the shadows. What I'm saying is that she'll subvert the system and use it for her own ends while on the surface looking like a kind, dutiful, reforming queen to everyone else. Which neatly ties in with Jon Arryan.

The reason he looks and sounds like such an ass despite his very real and very understandable concerns is that his hatred of the hentai corruption isn't about wanting to help people, but his own fears about losing control or relevance. But unlike Lyanna, he doesn't have a nice pair of tits and a harem of women and men to distract the readers from this more unpleasant character trait.

I like how you note Lyanna's breasts and harem obsifucate that she's a monster imposing her will on the social reality of Westros and Hurik has inherited in different ways her Lust
Causes conflict with his knightly values

Yeah, I will say this. It was a very good idea you started with a female Protagonist for this story, because even though it sounds a little sexist it's very true that people are much more willing to forgive evil acts or monstrous acts if their done by a female MC. That's the specific reason Miss Robin was made a female.

Lyanna sees her acts through love. Hurik is about power and glory. It's less romantic
Andy333

Hurik's darker side is definitely a lot less subtle I will say that.

He's got more mommy and daddy issues around self worth

Daddy issues, the bane of villains and anti heroes everywhere. Lol

Indeed. We are going to be sectioning off Lewd more to courtship votes. These dates between Hurik and his harem where his thoughts and actions can run wild while the rest of the Quest goes for less smutty

He's too busy as a lord to mindlessly enjoy his harem. He needs to schedule it in now. :V

And develop further his feelings for Ygrite and construct a relationship dynamic and interest in Melseandre

You open to Omakes or fan stuff to fill in those side chapters? If you offer points or give people the option some of the readers might take it.

But I sleep. Busy day tomorrow. Put off some chores I was supposed to do today, to instead play with the puppy. lol.
