He continued, “We think you see plenty of violence of all colors in Westeros, but there is a particular violence to childbirth, even childbirth that goes well in the end. We wanted to dramatize that.”on which the series is based — added that although the birth scene is very disturbing, it is also “incredibly powerful.”
