i was looking through the actual book of the world of ice and fire, just to see the art, and I forgot that on the first page, where it says “to his esteemed and gracious lord, tommen the first of his name” blah blah to celebrate his reign, but you can see that maester yandel initially wrote it for robert, then he got murdered, so yandel blotted out his name and put joffrey, then HE got murdered, so yandel blotted out his name too and put tommen. this poor man, can u imagine him being like “maybe i’m young enough to write another great history tome, let’s see if i can convince tommen to fund another vanity project” and then within like 6 months, tommen dies, myrcella is crowned, myrcella dies, the targaryens come BACK, aegon vi is crowned, dany lands and announces her crown, the north decides to shake things up and starts chucking crowns at every stark they see, and yandel is desperately blotting out yet another name on the damn title page
