Quotes
Davos: I want no part of you, my lady. Or your god. May the Seven protect me.
Melisandre: They did not protect Guncer Sunglass. He prayed thrice each day, and bore seven seven-pointed stars upon his shield, but when R'hllor reached out his hand his prayers turned to screams, and he burned.[5]—Davos Seaworth and Melisandre
