Tales of Dunk and Egg	comment	Tales of Dunk and Egg is a series of novellas written by George R. R. Martin. It takes place in the same universe and continuity of A Song of Ice and Fire but is set nearly a century before the events of the main series. It features a completely different set of characters and events, some of which were only alluded to as Noodle Incident or Great Offscreen War in the main text but which are explored in fuller detail here.After burying his mentor Ser Arlan of Pennytree on a meadow beneath a tree, Dunk of Flea Bottom decides to take up the calling of knighthood himself and enters as a poor hedge knight, styled Ser Duncan the Tall, in the Tourney at Ashford. On his travels he comes across a small, curious, bald child called Egg who volunteers to be his squire. Their random meeting leads to a lifelong friendship and several adventures, great and small, as they trudge across Westeros.The published novellas include: The Hedge Knight (1998, published in Legends Anthology, edited by Robert Silverberg) The Sworn Sword (2003, published in Legends II, edited by Robert Silverberg) The Mystery Knight (2010, published in Warriors, edited by Gardner Dozois)A fourth novella tentatively titled The She-Wolves of Winterfell was announced but has since been put on hold in favour of completing The Winds of Winter. Martin has announced his plans to publish several future tales, with the stated intention to chronicle the complete adventures of Dunk and Egg. Martin publicly stated that his to-do list involves finishing Winds, She-Wolves, A Dream of Spring, a fifth novella in this series, and a second volume of Fire and Blood — in that order.The series has led to two well received graphic novel adaptations of The Hedge Knight (2004) and The Sworn Sword (2008) written and drawn by Ben Avery and Mike S. Miller and published by Dark Horse Comics and Marvel Comics respectively. An adaptation for The Mystery Knight will finally be released in 2017's fourth of July, this time published by Random House in a single graphic novel edition. In October 2015, a collected edition of the first three tales was published under the title of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms with illustrations by Gary Gianni.Dunk and Egg differs from the main series by being significantly different in tone. The values of knighthood, the codes of chivalry and the honor of friendship, deconstructed in the main series, are here mostly played straight. It's mainly a chronicle of perhaps the most unlikely friendship in the annals of Westeros.In 2021, HBO was reportedly developing a show based on the series, as a prequel spin-off to Game of Thrones. It was ordered straight-to-series in 2023, with the title A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: The Hedge Knight.Tropes

Tales of Dunk and Egg / int_1235f055	comment	Dirty Coward: Lord Butterwell sent one son to fight for the king and one to fight for the first Blackfyre in the first Rebellion, hedging his bets. When Dunk interacts with him in person and Lord Butterwell mistakenly thinks Dunk and Egg are agents of Bloodraven he spends all of his time begging for mercy.

Tales of Dunk and Egg / int_14c791fb	comment	Conflicting Loyalty: Much like Ser Jaime Lannister several decades in the future, Ser Duncan experiences this even on the smallest scale. He's sworn his sword to Ser Eustace Osgrey to defend his lands and people from the Webbers, but Eustace is a former supporter of the Blackfyre pretenders and so a traitor, and Lady Rohanne hates him for foolishly entering a conflict that led to his son, her beloved Ser Addam, dying on the opposite side. Moreover, Dunk likes and admires Lady Rohanne. Dunk's real commitment is protecting the common people whom Eustace is forcing into preparing for a battle that will get them butchered.

Tales of Dunk and Egg / int_1cc527d7	comment	Asskicking Leads to Leadership: The First Blackfyre Rebellion had this as a key feature; disaffected war hawks and aggressive knights flocked to follow Daemon I because they wanted a warrior king who shared their desire to subdue Dorne and other regions through conquest rather than diplomacy. In this story the would-be Second Blackfyre Rebellion stages the tournament both to ingratiate Daemon II to his followers and to try to make the young Daemon look like a great warrior, even though he actually isn't. Despite being exhausted from torture, Flowers easily knocks Daemon II into the mud during their joust and everyone laughs, with someone even mockingly calling him the "Brown Dragon" for the brown mud covering him. So when Daemon II tries to rally his followers against Bloodraven's army, no-one will follow such an inept warrior against such bad odds and the "rebellion" instantly collapses.

Bloodraven shows up to end the Second Blackfyre Rebellion, but other characters observe that he's so obsessed with what Bittersteel and the other Blackfyres are doing in the Free Cities, he's pretty much ignoring the fact the Ironborn under Dagon Greyjoy are wreaking havoc on the coastlines, and only Beron Stark and Tybolt Lannister are trying to put an end to the constant raids.

Tales of Dunk and Egg / int_1f6983f7	comment	Ambiguous Situation: It's never made clear if the fire that ravages the King's Crown was deliberate; after Dunk accidentally angers her, Lady Rohanne swears to come with "fire and sword" if Ser Bennis isn't surrendered to her, and two days later, the King's Crown forest is ablaze. However, as she herself points out, there has been a long drought on (the kind that can easily result in a forest fire), and given that her own crops are dry, setting the fire could have gone disastrously wrong. She insists to Dunk that it wasn't done on her orders, but the story never confirms if someone in her service set the fire without her knowledge or if it was just a natural occurrence.

If it wasn't for his helmet, Dunk would have used Aerion's own shield to smash his head in, and it's only because Dunk gives Aerion the chance to yield (which, in the only wise action Aerion takes all story, he does) that he doesn't reach through Aerion's open visor and crush his eyes with his armored fingers.

His work is unadorned and dull to the eye, but extremely functional. Pate claims fancy decorations on top of helmets are just expensive targets for opponents to aim at, and Dunk notices that this does in fact seem to be the case while watching jousts. Pate also thinks that having a visor that you can pull up adds an unnecessary weak point the helmet, and Dunk attempts to use this against Aerion while fighting him in the Trial

Also, knowing that the three Kingsguard are the real threats on the other team yet they are oathsworn not to harm him, he makes a point of facing them while the others on his side defend him from the other enemies.

Dunk reminds him that they merely lack education, and many of them probably possess a wealth of practical skills and knowledge that a certain Prince of Summerhall lacks.

When trying to prove he truly squired for Ser Arlan, Dunk discusses a particular tourney with a highborn lord who remembers Arlan. When the man says he broke four lances defeating Arlan, Dunk hotly protests Arlan broke seven lances against Baelor Breakspear, only to instantly realize he's talking to the prince. Though he's getting the facts wrong, that he's clearly heard and has personal investment in the tale lends credence to Dunk's words.

On the other hand, Lady Rohanne often metes out harsh punishments to those who commit crimes against her holdings and her people-going as far as to drown a man for stealing sheep even though death sentence is not usually imposed on thieves in Westeros. However in her defence, the people she targets are usually guilty and as a woman ruling feels that she has to prove her toughness constantly or risk acts of aggression upon her lands.

Tales of Dunk and Egg / int_8b442f50	comment	Did Not Get the Girl: Seems to be Dunk's lot in life. He's got chemistry with Tanselle and rescues her from Prince Aerion, but while he's imprisoned for that she leaves Ashford rather than give Aerion another chance to come at her and/or because she doesn't want to stay and see Dunk executed, and he never manages to find her again. Then he's got chemistry with Rohanne and kills her abusive suitor, but by the time he's woken up after the fight she's married Ser Eustace (and will eventually be Tywin Lannister's grandmother). On the bright side, we know Dunk will have descendants (one of whom, hilariously enough, is Brienne of Tarth) so apparently he'll eventually manage to avert this trope at least once.

He's an incredible jouster, but never wins any tourneys because he bets on himself (with long odds) until he decides to lose (and then he bets on the other guy).

He trained the lord when he was a boy, and plans to flatter his skill so he can enter his service again. Instead, the lord doesn't even remember him, and refuses to employ such an apparently inept knight.

His bullshit finally gets successfully called out for what it is, but at a great price.

When Dunk confronts Eustace with this, Eustace claims that as far as he was concerned, Daemon was the rightful heir to the throne, and cites the fact that Aegon IV granted his ancestral sword to Daemon and not Daeron as evidence that Daemon was his intended successor.

Tales of Dunk and Egg / int_dc8ecfda	type	Futureshadowing
Tales of Dunk and Egg / int_dc8ecfda	comment	Futureshadowing: Egg mentions that King Aerys I discovered a prophecy in one of his books, possibly related to the return of dragons, which is a two-fold example: This is the very same prophecy concerning "The Prince That Was Promised" that would ultimately doom succeeding generations of Targaryens in A Song of Ice and Fire and become a personal obsession of Prince Rhaegar in particular. We know that Egg will eventually become obsessed with hatching dragons, which is presumably what caused his and Dunk's deaths at the Tragedy at Summerhall. John the Fiddler says that he has seen that Dunk will become a member of the Kingsguard, this indeed does happen in the future. When Ser Uthor Underleaf is trying to convince Dunk to become his professional fall guy, following him from tourney to tourney so Uthor can get good odds betting on himself against someone as big as Dunk, he tells him "The snail may leave a trail of slime behind him, but a little slime will do a man no harm... whilst if you dance with dragons, you must expect to burn." As already mentioned, Dunk would eventually perish in the fires of Summerhall, caused by Egg's attempt to hatch dragons.
