@fallendeer81: #ASOIAF OC — HOUSE Because of their immense wealth, House Zhao was often threatened by neighboring realms through raids and even war. In response, the Zhao devoted themselves to forging their own weapons and raising disciplined, highly trained armies. Over the years, they developed a formidable military power that came to be feared throughout Westeros. In times of war, the Zhao are renowned for their speed, tactical brilliance, and unwavering discipline. Though fierce in battle, they believe that the greatest honor is to die with courage and dignity. Their guiding philosophy teaches that one must be resilient and unbreakable, like jade. The pink banner is flown during times of peace, symbolizing prosperity, elegance, and the flourishing gardens of House Zhao. When the house goes to war, it is replaced by a crimson banner, signifying that "blood has replaced the flowers." This tradition dates back to Yi Ti and has been preserved since the Long Night. The Zhao believe that when the red banner is raised, the spirits of their ancestors march beside them. To them, its crimson color represents the blood of those who came before, watching over the family in every battle. #china #westeros #asoiaf #foryou
