That time they lent out ships to support the war against Voltanis, and the Iron Banks own activities should be the proof of that. Along with the natural deterrents I doubt Braavos would wish to put aside the monetary value/gain their continued relations with the other cities brings.KrimzonStrikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09399041947125766551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9200860591450872337.post-57405037429277077122011-07-18T16:33:42.781+02:002011-07-18T16:33:42.781+02:00Doesn't matter.

Braavos may share some of Dany's ideals when it comes to slavery, true, but if you look on a map, Braavos is in no position at all to interfere on Dany's behalf. They are across the continent, and to reach her their ships would need to sail by most of her enemies in a week long voyage, so why engage? They can use the strings that other merchant powers let slide to make war.Stefan Sassehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03504751435668017553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9200860591450872337.post-88772326357452257062011-07-18T03:53:01.399+02:002011-07-18T03:53:01.399+02:00Do you mean the Iron Bank, the Sealord, or just th...Do you mean the Iron Bank, the Sealord, or just the city in general, Sophie?Jaeryshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03239059861207526928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9200860591450872337.post-5116547892465782132011-07-17T21:13:05.444+02:002011-07-17T21:13:05.444+02:00I was quite surprised that Braavos never sent Dany...I was quite surprised that Braavos never sent Dany anything.
