...yes. That would describe the High Sparrow perfectly. He was so convinced that none could defy his gods that he ignored his death when it was staring him in the face.

The High Sparrow is akin to a priest or a pope?

voice

[roseofthetyrells]

He's a priest. The high priest whom all of the others must follow. He started his reign by destroying all of the brothels. He continued it by rounding up all the men who preferred to lay with other men.

Sounds like your world has a lot of the problems that mine did.

[roseofthetyrells]

[her voice is very small at the moment] Oh. There are those with--with hatred towards men who lay with other men in your world?

voice

[uptightness]

There was a time, both men and women. Less so nowadays, although I can't speak for the entirely galaxy.

I suppose it would be asking far too much for such. . . sentiments to vanish entirely.

voice

[uptightness]

I sometimes feel that conflict is in our blood.

voice

[roseofthetyrells]

[in a far-away tone of voice] Yes. I suppose it is. No matter the world, no matter the circumstances. There will be conflict.

voice

[uptightness]

All we can do is try to work towards something better.

voice

[roseofthetyrells]

Yes. It's too late for me, but I've done my best to advise those for whom it's not too late. Perhaps. . . that advice will be useful?

voice

[uptightness]

It's always the question of whether the advice will be listened to. Sometimes, a person just needs to be in a certain time and a certain place.

I would like to think that Jon and Daenerys would take my advice. Grandmother's lessons weren't only to make me a pretty ornament on the arm of a king, they were to make me a ruling queen.
